v2.8.1
2.8.1
I wrote a script specifically to test the previous balance patch against any faction and found that Diable was stomping everyone. I removed the Advanced Avionics hullmod and reduced the micromissile count, and suddenly most fights were fair. This patch will attempt to rectify most of the issues that the previous balance patch had.
Hullmods
Advanced Avionics
Changed to be an SO-like modular hullmod with a high OP cost. Grants the same +30% damage and +30% increased weapon flux cost, and also forces the zero flux boost if the ship generated less than 5% of its flux capacity over the last second.
Weapons
Artdeux Twin Cannon
Now has the USE_LESS_VS_SHIELDS tag for the AI.
Banish Torpedoes
Flux cost restored to 500 flux.
Damage and EMP reduced to 2000 (from 3000).
Micromissile Launcher (small)
Reduced ammo regen to 0.3/s (from 0.4/s). Still faster than before the first balanz patch.
Increased cooldown to 6 seconds (from 3 seconds).
Micromissile Launcher (medium) (Storm and Daze)
Reduced ammo regen to 0.8/s (from 1/s). Still faster than before the first balanz patch.
Reduced ammo reload size to 8 (from 12).
Reduced burst count to 8 (from 12).
Micromissile Launcher (Maelstrom)
Reduced ammo regen to 2/s (from 3.33/s). Still faster than before the first balanz patch.
Reduced burst count to 40.
Micromissile Launcher (Pandemonium)
Increased ammo regen to 2/s (from 1.66/s).
Increased ammo reload size to 40 (from 20).
Increased burst count to 40 (from 20).
Thrush LRM System
Damage decreased to 750 (from 1000).
Wanzers
A lot of changes from the previous patch were walked back. In addition, the increased Wanzer survivability has increased a ton over the past two patches to Diable, in part because of AI changes introduced in 0.96a and the micromissile changes introduced in the previous balanz patch, so I felt it necessary to reduce that somewhat by reducing their weapon range as well.
Raven
Hull reduced to 2000 (from 2500). This is a revert.

Hullmods
Dampened Mount
Modular and can be installed on Diable Avionics ships now. If installed on a ship that doesn't have it built-in, the firerate of the ship is reduced and the weapons also take more damage.
Either version of the hullmod can be s-modded to reduce the OP cost of Diable Avionics weapons while increasing the DP of the ship. If the s-modded version is modular, it also negates the firerate penalty.
Advanced Avionics
Diable Avionics ships are designed with advanced fire control systems. These systems finely tune the...
