    With the new increase of bots per wave, would it be wise to lower how much juice you gain from hitting them and reduce their drop rates? It doesn't feel right when I play a Gunner and get such quick juice bars due to the increase in bots per wave and the extra drops.

    Was this an intended increase? I don't see it as a bad thing, just wondering if general gameplay should experience this much more cash and juice available each match. I felt kinda dirty getting upgrades and juice so quick in the match. :twisted:

    You think it's fast as gunner? I can get juice almost instantly as assassin.

    That's my point, hehe. Been playing for a couple hours tonight and the the amount of juicing is just silly.

    Patch notes already said they increased bots to test stuff, there will probably be less juice in next update.

    Yeah, assassins get juice way to quickly now. Though I felt assassins were a little overpowered before, now they are just ridiculous. Its almost pointless to build turrets in the base now, since an assassin will inevitably juice up and just destroy all them before they can kill anything. Also, the juice boost rather weakens the support since most classes can destroy our turrets rather easily while juiced, plus we don't gain as much from being juiced as the others.

    I know this doesn't contradict what you're saying, but when I get juiced as a support, I just stand behind my turret and start taunting. You get like $100 per taunt when you're juiced and I think I get about 3 taunts per juice.

    Feel free to flame me as a noob, but I haven't found many better options when juiced as support (unless the other team isn't paying attention and I can hack their turrets).

    Take a shotgun, shoot their moneyball when the shields are down.

    Yeah, if the Moneyball is down, sure I'll go in and blast it.

    I don't tend to have much luck destroying turrets with Support. Air strike is good, but what do you do with the turrets under platforms? Is the shotgun or the heal / harm gun better?

    You probably won't be able to take down those turrets - best to leave it to another class, and help/heal them when it's required.

    While there is me in team there's also at too.

    If they are not overhealed, I can usually take down 2/3 turrets no problem.
    I always use the hurt gun on them, and my shotty on the moneyball.
    If I think I'm about to die while hitting a turret, I will toss an airstrike right before so there's a better chance the turret will fall.

    It's much harder to do when the base is being guarded by pros. I'm lucky to destory 1 turret like that.

    Thanks for the info... I'll try the Hurt Gun some time on them when I get some juice, maybe it'll be more effective.

    The thing with using the hurt gun juiced on turrets is that you don't have to aim so you can hop and dodge around so you don't take as much damage. I like to hop around the turret in a circle while I just hold down the hurt button. You'll at least get one turret and possibly kill some Pros. Same thing for me with Pros, I use the hurt gun juiced so I can dodge and stay locked on.
