I honestly liked where the wasp was because who doesn’t want a super powerful vehicle as a level 3 REQ? But I get the change. It’s trash if you use it wrong, but if you’re smart about it you can seriously rack up the kills. For the sake of the game play it should be a higher level…still…I like freebies.
What do you guys think about the new REQ changes? Are they good, bad? How would you change them?

New wasp was balanced, put then moving the Plasma Pistol to 2 was a bit redundant.
TBH I just think they need to buff the health a little bit. It’s waaay too squishy. Plus, the mobility leaves a lot to be desired. Same with the ONI Wasp. It’s really squishy for an ONI vehicle.
I know a lot of people who like the change. I know a lot of people who hate the change. I honestly don’t care because I was terrible with a wasp and almost never spawned one in.

True. Add on to the fact that Warzone is made mostly of either open space or close quarters, and your aerial vehicles are put under constant fire. You’d think things that typically lack natural cover would have more armor.

I don’t feel a legit ‘farm’ gets rolling at level 3.
Moving the Plasma Pistol down to 2, as mentioned earlier in the thread; was redundant. With the Plasma on 2 its made it easier to counter ground-based vehicles as well. This change has made it a little easier in WZA for defenders.

Well that’s the thing, the Wasp is extremely flimsy which is why it was fine for a level 3 REQ. Now it’s next to useless as people have access to way more powerful weapons by the time you get it.
I loved the Wasp when it was released and thought it was the best addition to Warzone in months. Now I’m gutted and haven’t bothered playing much lately.

Ha I used to be too. But then I just got good one day. My life was totally changed.
Regardless of farmers they will always find a way around this increase in req cost. One big problem is the rate in which the losing team in warzone receive reqs compared to the winning side, defeat is imminent.

I don’t necessary agree with all of the re-balancing issues (I think hannibal would work better at 5, alongside the oni, as well as the answer remaining untouched in this patch.) but hey, at least I don’t have to use wasp swarm to gain map control in WZ now.

The change was great IMO. Most people who don´t like the change seem to be those who would rack up the kills with them and obviously changing that makes you/them a tad grumpy
For me it was either increase the wasp lvl or decrease spartan laser (which they did too).

That and those who haven’t had the misfortune of experiencing a Waspzone in full force.
*“Oh, they’re easy to shoot down!”*Yeah, if there’s just one. And that one isn’t a good pilot. AND and your entire team magically is able to coordinate fire on it rather than running around in every direction while pretending it’s not actually there.

Yes. I can’t use a banshee for my life, so I enjoyed having my only flying vehicle at level 3 REQs.
