Balance Suggestion - Dolphins/Tropes

Recommended Posts

The astrodelphis makes both its big brother Astrocetus and the the Tropegnathus completely irrelevant. The Astrocetus already functions as a bomber, and its cannons can shoot to the horizon. The astrodelphis should be more of an air support tame. It should not be better at killing ground targets than the astrocetus. Perhaps lowering the range at which the homing ball locks targets to high turret range, and tapering the laser damage like manas, would knock the dolphin down a peg so that it doesn't overshadow every other dino in the game right now.

The tropes - perhaps add a mechanic to make use of homing rockets that only deals damage to players and tames like the dolphin homing shot, since nobody uses homing rockets anyways. This would give them a buff to at least somewhat be able to contend with the dolphins. For those of us who have been breeding Tropes since CI - it'd be nice to not just cryo the whole line and think of it as a sad memory of wasted time.

Tropes are the only flying tame where their ai will pick people. Have them on aggressive in the back if your cave to throw meshers about. Makes more chance of the mesher who probably is carefully hiding around stuff getting put in front of a turret
