Looks like I'm not the only one who is really confused on wtf the hellion has become. Blizzard forgot to put sense in this whole thing, they probably lost it somewhere. | ||

Yes, it got increase in damage, but the duration is a lot shorter and energy cost is pretty big too. Well, maybe it wasn't even a nerf, but it was a change, not actual buff either. My thoughts pretty much exactly. I shouldn't have called it a buff, I didn't mean it to be heh. I think the mothership core should have an energy cost per attack (maybe slightly higher than the "average energy/attack over 25 seconds") so that like each attack costs 10 energy (find a good amount, just an example.) And give the mothership a leash range (22 or something, long but not long enough to attack) to the nexus, halve its movement speed, and bring back teleport, so it becomes more of a dynamic defensive unit. And increase range on purify imo, since movement speed + leash range are changed. Is this true? What is the current damage vs armored? I don't think the tank is any different from the WoL tank. I haven't clicked on one, but it doesn't feel any more powerful. | ||

Well, as usual, most of the Terran players right now are whining without even realizing how good this patch is for Terran players. Both buffs are just straight buffs, and are pretty huge, and makes new units more than dynamic and viable. | ||

Only damage scaling vs. armored in siege mode was different by 2 or 3 more damage per weapon upgrade. It might have been rolled back per 'bug fixing' tho. | ||

I don't even think it's whining, I think they're complaining about something that really doesn't change anything *I'm a terran player and I think BH becoming Bio gives it more survivability against collosus (as a mech player)* The only issue I have is that they still refuse to allow Terran to have a good cornerstone unit in the tank. | ||

Putting battle hellion as bio aside this change is actually interesting. Becouse mech mostly work like protoss army (great in big numbers) now we might see some non camping to 200/200 mech style. | ||
