Buff Wasps

From what I have experienced, wasps are quite slow and its weapons have long cooldowns which don’t do much damage at all to vehicles or shielded targets. I also feel that the missiles should have a larger explosion radius (for eliminating lesser targets) and maybe as a future Wasp Req Variant, explosive rounds for the machine gun could be installed to increase the vehicle’s fire power. On Warzone Firefight, my wasp normally gets set on fire within half a minute of spawning due to a Promethean Soldier firing an explosive weapon at me. This Wasp’s hp should be increased… It is a mediocre vehicle but due to its lack of availabilty (being a rare vehicle) it should be buffed.

Thanks for reading.

buff? so you want a flying vehicle that has heaps of health and req level 3, a vehicle that already get spammed by fireteams, imo it needs a nerf to req level 4 or 5
that vehicle does enough damage already

It is level 3 and far more powerful than a ghost/battle rifle. It doesn’t need buffed.

Thanks for the feed back but I really feel that it is generally quite a weak vehicle in comparison to it being rare.

And an Legendary rocket hog is?

The rarity values are all out of wack

Rarity is irrelevant to strength. The req level is. It is a level 3 req. You can call it in at the same time as a battle rifle. Do you think some of the rocket hogs need buffs because they are ultra rare/legendary?

its a lvl 3 req and you want it to rival a normal banshee? Your probably on fire for not ducking in and out of cover it’s not a tank. If the shields are down get to cover. I mean its already pretty overpowered if you know how to use it.

Thanks for the feed back everyone. :slight_smile:

everything is fine with it. it just needs to be fast. quick straf speed. quick acceleration. thats all it needs

I think it’s less “Wasp is weak, needs buff” and more “Firefight AI OP, need nerf”.

As is, the Wasp makes a great support vehicle and can last a while if used correctly. No need for any changes, aside from it being really hard to get for a Rare REQ.

no the wasp is really powerful at the current state. just need to know how to use it
