ThistleWhile the bomber changes of the first part can either be beneficial for aeon players and their auroras or not, the t2 nerfs were definitely welcome for them.

Janus
JanusThe janus bomber already saw significant improvements to its accuracy in the first part of the patch, but it wasn't the end of the process. This change re-works the bomber's firing cycle to ensure a large, even spread. The goal is to make it a more versatile and useful (and being made fun of less) unit, while being different to the other t2 bombers. Where the other t2 bombers are most useful to take out single targets, the role of the janus will lie more in taking out large armies with its AOE.

Ythotha:
Ythotha:A buff to the Ythotha has been long planned and wished, but buffing it in a way that makes the unit more dynamic and interesting turned out to be difficult. We have decided to improve it by making it more nimble and also allowing it to shoot 45 degrees backwards so that it can be microed to a much greater degree. It also gets a slight range increase to help with this goal. We will closely observe if this new microability in certain situations gives the Ythotha the power it should have, or if further adjustments are needed.

The last building that got its HP changed are Walls. They found increasing popularity in the past year, and with that also causing increasing annoyance and they proved that they are very powerful. Walls take twice the time to build now (which is still very fast), and while UEF walls are almost as hard to destroy as before, Cybran walls are much less of a obstacle. -

Static FlakFactory HPs
Factory HPs are being overhauled to some degree once again, and hopefully for the last time in the near future. Naval factory HPs are the main focus here. Given that navy is a more expensive and generally powerful arena than land or air on a given tech level, it has had some of its hp restored. HP values have also been realigned to make them very easy to learn should you feel the need to, to make predicting the number of units needed to snipe a factory much easier.

Reclaim
ReclaimThere have been some changes discussed for a long time in the community and one of them is decreasing the speed of reclaiming. A T1 engy can reclaim 50 mass/s which is a very high rate. This makes reclaim fields disappear very quickly after being deposited. We have decided to reduce the reclaim rate by half for wrecks to allow reclaim fields to be more contestable to improve the dynamic map control element created by reclaim fields.

Overcharge
OverchargeThis is the first rebalance of Overcharge since patch 3605 and it builds upon the premise of requiring energy storage to OC. We have implemented a variable system of Overcharge so to do greater damage you will need more energy in storage. You will still need to buld an energy storage before you can Overcharge and one storage will suffice for killing T2 units. To kill the heaviest T3 units you will need three storages. When you Overcharge the amount of energy required to kill the unit you hit will be drained from your storage. If you do not have enough to kill the target, most of your energy will be drained but not all so that your shields and radar are not effected.

Hover tanks
The advantage of hoverunits is their great flexibility, enabling them to be used both on water and on land. However if they are so effective that even pure naval units have significant trouble with large amounts of hoverunits, something is wrong. Furthermore their fast speed makes it unreasonably tiresome to defend against them on raiding-vulnerable island maps. Their build time has been increased, and their movement speed while on water has been decreased.

Harbingers are a complicated unit, while being immensely dominant in the early t3 stages, they already lose in bigger numbers to other t3 tanks. Straight out nerfing them would not only lower their early game advantage (and the very satisfying feeling of the unit) but also cause potential problems in the lategame. Increasing the build time to the same mass/BT ratio of Percivals and Bricks will make it harder to produce many Harbinger too early and will give the opponent more time to bring their own counters in place, but should not hurt Aeon too much later.
The problems behind the power of the Harbinger lie deeper than this, but it will require more time to solve them. Until then, this change should make the life of non-aeons a little bit easier.

We are adding a special armor-type against cybran missiles to TMDs, allowing them to survive a single missile with low hp. This means that sooner or later you will still need two of them to be completely safe, but you will have more time to get them (or repair the damaged one after a failed attempt to kill it), and it will take double the effort and resources to take the ones out you have.

That's why it is, among with offensive language, a bannable offense in FAF and should be reported to the moderators. We are going to make it harder to get banned by removing the most popular and easiest tool for team killing, giving you the opportunity to calm down and think about if punishing this guy for his behavior or skill is really worth risking a ban and ruining a game for everyone.

Another idea from the balance forum by washy is actually reverting a very old change. The Lobo used to have 205 hitpoints a long time ago, but back then, UEF was very dominant thanks to this, so it was reduced to 200. Today, it is maybe time to bring UEF some of its lost power back. This is an attempt to buff UEF in a way that makes the faction more diverse and interesting instead of just adding more raw power to some units. In some situations this buff will be useless, but in others and with a smart UEF player who incorporates it into his strategy, the fact that opposing ACUs now need 3 shots instead of 2 to kill Lobos could be very powerful. This isnt trying to pretend this change is not very small, but it is a good example of how buffs should try to increase diversity in both - factions, and the game - while nerfs need to be done in a way that keeps this diversity.

Together with the hover speed nerfs last patch, flak speed for Seraphim and Aeon was reduced to keep them convenient to use with the new hovertanks. As hovertanks get changed, flak will again get changed together with them for the same reason. However, the lower speed on land turned out to be a good change independent from the original reasoning. Therefore we expand this change, and use the opportunity to add the same convenient for using flak with land units as we did with hovertanks the last patch.

The engy values from engymod were very careful designed to avoid a couple of potential issues. This issues didn't became true so far. As result we can make t2 and t3 engy efficiency as good as t1 engies. This means you dont need to invest more resources if you want to assist with higher tech engies for the same build power anymore. They still have some downsides by needing a higher tier factory, having less speed, and less ability to fine tune how much BP you get over time.
It is worth observing if that leads to one of the biggest potential problems i tried to avoid when making engymod: too easy base defending with the ability to spam the required defense in no time. (Similar to the vanilla anti-nuke problem - you wouldn't need an anti-nuke, because you can still start one when you hear the nuke being launched and it'd finish in time with massive assist)

The t1 bomber has a couple of different issues we're trying to solve here:
a) First bomber in combination with hoverbombing is not necessarily OP, but can be very frustrating for new players, and is OP on lower levels in a sense that you need to learn more (have more "skill") to counter it than you need to use it. The solution we are using after long discussions and tests is to remove hoverbombing and replace it with increased possibility to micro for experienced players. This will also solve the "logic" issue of hoverbombing that many people have, without removing possibilities of the game. Hoverbombing possibility is removed, but new micro possibility takes its place. However, it is harder to do, and has less impact, so much less people will be able to use it to their advantage
b) First bomber is extremely swingy, either giving the player who does it a huge advantage or sets him back a lot. The goal is to bring it closer to normal raiding units like labs. They will still be very swingy, due to the high investment for the air factory and the bomber, their potential power need to be accordingly strong, but a combination of cost, higher build time, the anti air buffs and other things like radar removal, should make it easier, especially for inexperienced players, to deal with first bombers. Due to this and the hoverbombing changes there will probably (did anyone say hopefully?) be less first bombers, but the changes are trying to make them less frustrating without having to remove the option completely.

The Ahwassa gets the same treatment regarding hoverbombing as the t1 bomber, without the other dimensions of the t1 bomber changes. This means removing hoverbombing and increasing normal microability in return. This is done especially to prevent hovering outside of SAM range, you can probably still drop a bomb outside of sam range (we tried many solutions to solve it for good, but so far none worked. We will keep searching in the future), but it should be much harder to do now to avoid taking fire.
But also the general dps increase that could be achieved by hovering is now harder to do, while the need to do it is reduced as well, as unmicroed Ahwassas are turning faster and drop more reliable too.
Cybran Navy AA
The AA of Cybran frigates and destroyers was buffed a couple of patches ago. This was done to help Cybran navy in lategame against air because they have the worst cruiser and no shields, this could especially be observed on setons. However, this made them very dominant in the early game too, what was not a problem as long as Cybran was a weak faction, but is a problem now, so we are reverting the buffs back to the original stats. At some point, there might need to be another solution to help Cybran lategame navy, but as of now, we can consider it a weakness Cybran needs to deal with.

Hover tanks
The advantage of hoverunits is their great flexibility, enabling them to be used both on water and on land. However if they are so effective that even pure naval units have significant trouble with large amounts of hoverunits, something is wrong. Furthermore their fast speed makes it unreasonably tiresome to defend against them on raiding-vulnerable island maps. Their build time has been increased, and their movement speed while on water has been decreased.

Harbingers are a complicated unit, while being immensely dominant in the early t3 stages, they already lose in bigger numbers to other t3 tanks. Straight out nerfing them would not only lower their early game advantage (and the very satisfying feeling of the unit) but also cause potential problems in the lategame. Increasing the build time to the same mass/BT ratio of Percivals and Bricks will make it harder to produce many Harbinger too early and will give the opponent more time to bring their own counters in place, but should not hurt Aeon too much later.
The problems behind the power of the Harbinger lie deeper than this, but it will require more time to solve them. Until then, this change should make the life of non-aeons a little bit easier. @@ -67,7 +67,7 @@

We wanted to keep Cybran's advantage of killing targets next to TMDs with several missiles, which is a compensation for their weak defense. However, this should not allow the Cybran player to easily take out the TMD itself with the unit that they are supposed to counter. We are adding a special armor-type against cybran missiles to TMDs, allowing them to survive a single missile with low hp. This means that sooner or later you will still need two of them to be completely safe, but you will have more time to get them (or repair the damaged one after a failed attempt to kill it), and it will take double the effort and resources to take the ones out you have.

Another idea from the balance forum by washy is actually reverting a very old change. The Lobo used to have 205 hitpoints a long time ago, but back then, UEF was very dominant thanks to this, so it was reduced to 200. Today, it is maybe time to bring UEF some of its lost power back. This is an attempt to buff UEF in a way that makes the faction more diverse and interesting instead of just adding more raw power to some units. In some situations this buff will be useless, but in others and with a smart UEF player who incorporates it into his strategy, the fact that opposing ACUs now need 3 shots instead of 2 to kill Lobos could be very powerful. This isnt trying to pretend this change is not very small, but it is a good example of how buffs should try to increase diversity in both - factions, and the game - while nerfs need to be done in a way that keeps this diversity.

Together with the hover speed nerfs last patch, flak speed for Seraphim and Aeon was reduced to keep them convenient to use with the new hovertanks. As hovertanks get changed, flak will again get changed together with them for the same reason. However, the lower speed on land turned out to be a good change independent from the original reasoning. Therefore we expand this change, and use the opportunity to add the same convenient for using flak with land units as we did with hovertanks the last patch. All Flak will get the same speed as the main tank used by the faction, but hover flak will keep the fast speed on water to be used easily with hover tanks.

The engy values from engymod were very careful designed to avoid a couple of potential issues. This issues didn't became true so far. As result we can make t2 and t3 engy efficiency as good as t1 engies. This means you dont need to invest more resources if you want to assist with higher tech engies for the same build power anymore. They still have some downsides by needing a higher tier factory, having less speed, and less ability to fine tune how much BP you get over time.
It is worth observing if that leads to one of the biggest potential problems i tried to avoid when making engymod: too easy base defending with the ability to spam the required defense in no time. (Similar to the vanilla anti-nuke problem - you wouldn't need an anti-nuke, because you can still start one when you hear the nuke being launched and it'd finish in time with massive assist)

The t1 bomber has a couple of different issues we're trying to solve here:a) First bomber in combination with hoverbombing is not necessarily OP, but can be very frustrating for new players, and is OP on lower levels in a sense that you need to learn more (have more "skill") to counter it than you need to use it. The solution we are using after long discussions and tests is to remove hoverbombing and replace it with increased possibility to micro for experienced players. This will also solve the "logic" issue of hoverbombing that many people have, without removing possibilities of the game. Hoverbombing possibility is removed, but new micro possibility takes its place. However, it is harder to do, and has less impact, so much less people will be able to use it to their advantage
b) First bomber is extremely swingy, either giving the player who does it a huge advantage or sets him back a lot. The goal is to bring it closer to normal raiding units like labs. They will still be very swingy, due to the high investment for the air factory and the bomber, their potential power need to be accordingly strong, but a combination of cost, higher build time, the anti air buffs and other things like radar removal, should make it easier, especially for inexperienced players, to deal with first bombers. Due to this and the hoverbombing changes there will probably (did anyone say hopefully?) be less first bombers, but the changes are trying to make them less frustrating without having to remove the option completely.

The Ahwassa gets the same treatment regarding hoverbombing as the t1 bomber, without the other dimensions of the t1 bomber changes. This means removing hoverbombing and increasing normal microability in return. This is done especially to prevent hovering outside of SAM range, you can probably still drop a bomb outside of sam range (we tried many solutions to solve it for good, but so far none worked. We will keep searching in the future), but it should be much harder to do now to avoid taking fire. But also the general dps increase that could be achieved by hovering is now harder to do, while the need to do it is reduced as well, as unmicroed Ahwassas are turning faster and drop more reliable too.

The T3 BP reduction is a small nerf to t3 com drops. The hp gets reduced from t2 to prevent it making it significantly harder to snipe or attack ACUs, and together with the removal of regen, it can make it more possible ot attack a low health ACU again after a failed attack.
