We will, we will ROCK YOU.
They currently only have 150 ammo max, and a base ammo of 100, this causes them to be near useless, because their ammo pool is so small. In general, you can kill one infantry with a mag of rocket pods, meaning that it can kill at best 15 infantry with them. Compare this to the vlg, and you realize that it does decent damage, but not enough to make it better at killing armor. The primary reason why you would use the pelter over the vlg is the better infantry killing capability, because the vlg has much better air to air ability and air to armor ability, meaning that the pelter sits in a spot where it has decent infantry killing ability, but it takes so much ammo that it canβt be utilized.
For comparison, the pelter rocket pods fully certed out, reload and firing time included, it takes 63 seconds to completely empty the pelter rockets. The vlg takes 100 seconds sustained fire, and the wyvern takes 114 seconds to fire all of its bullets. This shows that the pelter have by far the least amount of ammo is comparison to the other guns.
What I propose, would be that the pelter has an ammo capacity of 150 base, and can be increased to 250 through cert upgrades. This would bring the vlg in line with the other guns, it would then take 112 seconds to fire all of its rounds, compared to the 63 seconds from before. This would make the weapon be able to fight with out needing to go resupply at an air terminal ever 5 minutes.
I think both of the units are good, but I'm wondering what are the main differences between them?
what is better the pelter rocket pods or the bulldogs on the two wings (both with a gunner each) against vehicles?
