So you could have base level one bullets do so much damage, then they increase in damage by an amount you set... right? In old SVS zones red bullets didn't do the same amount of damage blue ones did. Change base level from 212 to something much lower, find a desired amount of damage total per bullet for level 2, adjust that increment, and then add whatever difference there needs to be added for level 3 so level 3 damage stays at 212.
Can ship settings be changed in just one arena? Create a 4v4 test arena where settings can be tested in a game situation with two teams comprised of veterans. It's a given using random practices to try out ship settings isn't the best way.
Seasons have been ruined by a single person (Underlord) dictating ship setting changes by himself. He didn't even play pro league at the time when he instituted 20 thrust sharks and the spray and pray terriers.
A small group of elite players voting on matters would be much more adequate. Multiple active players who have many years of league experience should contribute and help decide. A Pro League council with people that are active and play on the highest level would be more constructive and balanced than what has been done in the past. You would have multiple viewpoints. Peoples "styles" may be different and they may see things in another way. Their concerns would be voiced and other "angles" would be seen.
I think removing multifire off of less agile ships or increasing the fire delay is a bad idea. We aren't trying to make ships with lesser rotation and thrust weaker. Those ships can and should be using multifire to cover ground so Warbird's can't get to the flanks so easily. Increasing cost across all levels and removing multi all together from the Warbird in my opinion would be a smart change to test.
What was the Javelin speed/rotation/afterburner around season 6? Those are the settings we should look into for the Javelin. Players like CookieM were able to hit and finish off good Warbird's back then. The Warbird settings were the same back then as they are today. I understand resolution plays into the effectiveness of the Javelin, but I feel like those settings were better for the Javelin. Maybe they weren't, but todays Javelin isn't up to snuff and needs to be looked at.
