You can't be serious.. Ballista overpowered
Literally devs you cannot be serious right now? Ballista does 3-4k damage per hit on a stone wall and the arrow is fairly easy to get.. I also tested it on local to test it on dinos and guess what, on a alpha t rex it does over 2000 damage with 3 arrows in total

Should consider nerfing it or primitive will be destroyed by this

1 C4 destroys the wall. Making only 1 piece of c4 is hardly a challenge, 2 guys on my old server farmed 150 in one afternoon.

It's a ballista.

mmmh yeah seems a tad to much considering the cost of the bolt on what dinos can you actually mount them?

So far, Bronto and Plesio. Paracer soon, and possibly Carbonemys.

Ballistas are WAY too OP. was thinking about 200DMG/arrow and I thought it would be too op but lol at 2K DMG/arrow.

Kelgorr Sep 22, 2015 @ 12:01pm

I shudder to think of what catapults and cannons and all the other stuff they may put in will do.

See my comment above. Stone wall was always incredibly weak. At least now you can clean the map a bit because the devs still did NOT turn structure decay ON on PVP servers.

Please mighty roman empire stop your ballistas they are OP.

Good point. Demolition brontos anyone?

well if you compare the costs for stone wall and arros you need its:
40 Stone
20 Wood
For the Wall

10Metal
1CP
14 Wood
and some other small stuff for 1 Arrow.

if night is correct you need 3 arrows for a stone wall thats 30 metal ingots 24Stone 12 Chitin and 42 Wood. make it 4 arrows for a wall and its ok.
dinos well seems quite strong.

Khorne they one shoot auto turrets?
