Toboggan should be faster!

[炸弹哥不打上单]

In game description " the vessel built for outrunning pirates", while at this moment Toboggan is one of the slowest walkers in game.
people rarely drive those things, they just use it to store a base outside the map.
Its not very satisfying to be able to store a lot of goods in Toboggan while you can not drive it around because if you got spotted by Falco pirates in dersert its the end.
I think it could be balanced by buffing Toboggans max speed(same speed as stiletto? or a bit slower than falco?).
As a same tier walker, stiletto is way too powerful now. I would rather build a few Stilettos to store all my stuffs separately than build a Toboggan and never use it. Stiletto is cheaper, has much more deck space, and much faster on flat ground than Toboggan. while they also share same max weight 8000.

i mean theres no situation where you can get away in the desert from a falco even if it was stiletto speed

If all of the walkers had the same qualities with no variations, there would be no point to having more than one walker in existence. ALL walkers have good and bad things about them, they should not all be equal.

The description may refer to walkers below the toboggan's tier, not it's equal (stiletto) or it's successors (Falco). It's subject to one's interpretation, but to demand it outrun a Falco in speed, or even come close to the Falco speed is silly, as it is a much lower tiered walker.

Maybe the answer is to fix the description.

Im in favor of the Tobboggan being fast but with horrid turning speed. In this way, it can still fit it's purpose as a fast trade walker, but be nearly useless at anything else.

Then it would be the Falco, essentially.

i need to take my tobaggan that hilds my massive base out more so it can be raided....tired of having stuff banked and being too afraid to use it.

Ah, I've never used the Falco. I understood it as being the fastest over flatground, though didn't know of it's turning speed
