(If you do 90% damage to a single percie, it will still have 100% dps, while 90% to 5PDs will only leave 20%.) And indeed, like this the PDs win, with 4 or 5 PDs surviving. A third factor is that the DPS of the percies goes down in “bigger steps”. Some percies might target the same PD, plus they do not all emerge from the water at the same time when in group. I figured that the more percies, the more the advantage would go to the PDs. The percie wins, with 20%ish of its health left. The simplest scenario is 1 percie vs 5 PDs, which is what I started with. ![]() I did not look into the stats further, as the best way to find out how they actually compare is to let the game itself do the work. ![]() During my testing I found that you can build 5 PDs for the cost of a percie. And once they emerge from the water, they’ll be in range of the PDs (unless you placed them real bad).Įven with this advantage, how mass effective is countering percies with T1 PDs? Percies have a 4 second firing cycle and deal 1600 damage per shot, thus one-shotting T1 PDs. However on this map, the percies have to move through the water first, a period during which neither they not the t1 PDs can exchange fire. In most situations percies will straight out win, since they can pick off the T1 PDs from a distance, as their range is significantly bigger. I started wondering how effective T1 PDs are at countering percies on this map, and did some testing to find out. One scenario I’ve run into a few times is that I’m UEF inno and am next to a UEF phantom that spams a crapton of Percivals. This changes up the Phantom meta compared to the usual maps so much and leads to games I find way more interesting. Lately I’ve been playing a lot of Phantom-X games on the Four Corners map. ![]() Check out the community maintained multilayer service Forged Alliance Forever for more info. It’s been said that it is to Star Craft what chess is to Tic-tac-toe. For those who don’t know it, this is the best Real Time Strategy game out there. I’ve decided to start with writing small to the point blog posts on Supreme Commander Forged Alliance whenever I stumble upon a good topic.
