Strategy
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 51.2
Faster Firing improves all attack speeds, and is always the preferred crosspath for other Heli paths outside of Least Tiers. It is weak by itself and should not be bought without other upgrades first. Increased attack speed benefits DPS for top path and Special Poperations's Marine, plus blowback for middle path.

Lock in Place and Patrol Points no longer immediately prompt to choose target positions and instead have default positions
After changing targeting off of Lock in Place or Patrol Points, changing back returns the target(s) to how it was previously
- "Heli Pilots should no longer cause save files to not load sometimes" (bug fix)
Overall cost increased by $100 (due to cost changes for previous tiers)
Faster Firing and Faster Darts upgrades have swapped tiers
“
Pursuit Downdraft has felt like an overperformer for a very long time, but instead of outright nerfing it we increased crosspath potential for those who manually take control over their heli micro.

- 0-3-2, 0-4-2, 0-5-2
Downdraft: rate increased ― 0.125s → 0.12s
“
Heli Pilot manages on pursuit far too easily without any need to consider Bigger Jets unless camo or downdraft is required. For more crosspath variety than just ‘camo’ we moved more of the base Heli speed out and back into Bigger Jets with an overall buff to Bigger Jets. This should allow Bigger Jets to scale a little better than other helis through early speed ramping.

Movement speed decreased ― 45 → 40

Movement speed increased ― 67.5 → 70
“
Faster Darts xx1 upgrade will now increase the attack distance of Heli Dart attacks in order to assist with cluttering issues where large numbers of Helis will push each other away from nearby targets.

Faster Darts now increases attack distance of dart attacks by +30%
Heli 'patrol point' markers now visually update immediately after setting new points (bug fix)
“
Even with the map-range advantage, rotors are weak compared to any other constant AoE circle like this.

- 3-0-2, 4-0-2, 5-0-2
Razor Rotors: now benefits from the faster firing crosspath ― 0.75s → 0.4s
