I always thought DTs didn't do much damage to running workers... I guess this shows why. Hopefully they change it.

I noticed this bug where whenever my probe right clicks an scv or drone in a 1v1 battle the probe always loses. This bug should be fixed right away.

Jesus, like 75% of the people in this thread only read the OP.
I don't think this is a problem at all; its all balanced out in the end.

When chasing the scout, if you just micro a bit you should be able to get in the damage anyways.
Drones still do the same DPS as an SCV/probe.


Fixing this problem for DT and Ultra seems to make sense, though.
Have you ever played one of those Cat and Mouse UMS games?

This is working as intended, the drone was given a higher damage point than other workers for precisely this kind of micro. Please stop trolling and calling it a bug. Just admit you want a buff to your early hatch builds.

But go ahead and "fix" it, just give SCVs 55 HP back.

Then can you tell me why the scv and probe shouldnt also miss if the drone was to run away?

What's up with these replies? how can you argue that it is acceptable that the drone, as the only worker unit, is different in such a crucial way? Even if it is possibly negated by micro, shouldn't all workers be the same? At least nerf the probe and SCV as well then! Only nerfing the drone just seems too god-damn thoughtless and out-of-synch with the game spirit and how the races should have equal chances in the same situations.

This kind of unit design just further concretes the fact that Zerg is the most intensive race in all possible levels of the game.

I hear a lot of "its not that bad"

Well if you want to make the perfect product its things like this that should be fixed.

People are playing for real cold hard cash in this game after all.

The biggest problem with this is how effective stutter step microing marines away from drones with 2 rax suddenly becomes, since if you do it correctly, they cant even attack you back. The question is basicly if it's intended or just happened for balance reasons to be this way.
I speak fluent sarcasm.

but you're not reading the thread either.
how are zerg meant to handle super early marine pressure if we cant hit the marines. aswel as stopping the pylon block if the other players know of it.

I've noticed this a while, thought it was a glitch or bug

Really noticeable when players queue a diamond-ish shape with their probe to block your hatch and you try to chase away the probe with a drone

Never really noticed it. I've always manually micro'ed my drone in worker fights when trying to get that hatch down. If this gets fixed it'll be nice, it'll make things like that less of a hassle.

But with the clear irrefutable evidence seen here. CLEARLY, EFFING CLEARLY, THERE ARE IMBALANCES IN THIS GAME. =O

Yeah, they wouldn't just randomly give this unit higher damage point for no reason while the other two workers just so happen to have a lower damage point.

Don't you mean 60?

I think he means to remove Auto Repair in for 60 hp SCVS ( They didn't seem to have a problem in BW anyways and the map pool has become much different nowadays with massive maps and some maps having corner spawns ( Tal'Darim Altar ) instead a metalopolis design ( doesn't use corners in this map ).

They were changed due to the tiny map distances they used to have ( Steppes of War )
