I was wondering, could the devs set this to a 4-minute cooldown, not 2 uses? The T17 is seldom used as is due to its high price and inherent fragility, and WP rounds is arguably slightly worse than Treadbreaker. The T17, for those who don't know, is also the dedicated Armor Company unit, so there isn't any worry about every single player having one.

Setting WP to a cooldown could help the T17 get a niche role as a vehicle disabler, rather than its current role of...I'm not sure what it does at the moment. Besides the T17 I own, I haven't seen the T17 at all for the last two dozen games or so.

I'd have to agree. I love the T17's fire power but I can't stand how easy it goes down and how many uses i get.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

Firstly, the T17 needs a price drop and a health buff.

4 minutes is a good cooldown time.  I like it. 

More details please... How much does it cost??  It should be like 50 or 55 munitions really, as it makes any tank completely useless for what, 7 seconds??  Nowhere near as deadly as treadbreaker, but just as good as Button Vehicle (since button only works from really up close to get any more than 5 seconds)

The phosphorus thing would be fine but a health buff would be rediculous, I often see it take schrek hits that do 20% damage, lol

No health buff.  But put the thing on a recharge.  These thigns are great against pe, just be ready to lose it, put a repair on it.  I only use mine when there is a higher priority tank around.  Or when I'm vet hunting Smiley

If you want to vet hunt, it's more cost effective to get a jeep + a sticky squad.

Either/or, not both.

We are serious about enforcing this, and I am sure you all want to be able to have your balance thought considered by the development team with some biased, sensationalist coming into your thread and ruining it.

Or we can do the right thing and buff the HP and lower its price tag.

Anyways, back on topic, I think White Phosphorus Rounds are fine as is but could be set to a cooldown like Treadbreaker.
