This actually changes the bot completely, but it actually makes it a LOT more interesting.


Laser becomes usable up to 2 times

First Laser activation: 70% + 5% Per turn that the bot special is off cooldown but not used. Up to 90%.
Second Laser Activation: 100% + 6.25% per turn that the bot is available and not used after the first activation. Up to 125%.


This provides a lot of dynamic between using the laser and the physical attack, and not just sitting there tanking everything until it reaches max power.
It's almost like having a custom bot where you can manually adjust the power and cooldown. Higher power = higher 'cooldown'.

I like the 2nd idea since it's useable more than once and you aren't stalling anymore but have to use it (even at 90% damage) but in return, you get double use which scales faster (4 turns to cap).

Not so with the first one which you've covered pretty well + IA is made to raise damage as the fight gets longer which #1 lacks so yeah, 2nd idea is pretty good.

I'm actually removing the first one, i don't like it at all..

EDIT: It takes 13 turns to fire off a 90% and a 125%. It takes 9 turns to fire off a 70% and a 125%.

Seems pretty reasonable.



Ranloth -> RE: Infernal Android (5/19/2013 10:45:44)

Hm. Wouldn't making it 100% for the First Laser and 6% per turn be more appropriate? I see where you're coming from but that way, you will at least deal 100% damage instead of 90% and chance not to use the Second Laser. Furthermore, 6% per turn means it'll take 5 turns to deal 100% damage whilst now, it takes 4 turns to get to 90%.

That's the point. You need to adjust your build to the bot, not the other way around. A player who has a build that can't survive long enough to consistently get off their second laser to compensate for the first weaker one should consider using a different bot.

Hm. I see. Fair point actually.
