Talk:Polyphemus

Carrier Flagship and this map

Hey @Player are you confident that 5-0-2 flagship is the better crosspath in this scenario, despite the eye providing camo detection and attack speed? I would think the Hot Shots are better in this specific case, especially considering they recently buffed it's damage over time to scale with the tier of the boat.

Before v45.0, Crow's Nest used to give a massive +7 pierce, making Flagship with the 5-0-2 crosspath far, far better in every single case. They fixed the bug this update, and now the 5-0-2 and 5-2-0 each have separate niches. 5-2-0 bests the 5-0-2 crosspath on Polyphemus and other maps where the main attack is taken good advantage of, though 5-0-2 is still slightly better on maps where the main attack does not do much because of Long Range's pierce increase. I changed the recommendation. Player (talk) 20:38, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
