360 range is cheese. Take off 100.

Dissagree

Because

Many clan clan weapons are sorta nerfed already.
Laser duration
LRM stream fire
UAC/AC burst fire.

Clans having an advantage with streaks is ok, lock time can be bonked by the enemy team and cool downs is quitwe long on the larger lauchers.

So in my view there balanced.

Instead maybe give IS Streak 4 and 6 launchers instead

Part of being skilled in a so called skinless weapon system is taking advantage of the range

Yeah Streaks
I remember the ol streak cat meta like..................
I know there not good except for a few things, but I like trying to run most weapon systems for variety.

[Dee Eight]

streak cats still work for scouting... the ability to leap and carry ECM means you can have fun in scout matches with them.

OZ means Streak Catapults. You mean Streak shadowcats. There's quite a big difference.

since the cata shrinked the difference isn't that "big"

[General Solo]

Streak Catapult in spirit, since it was the first and original
These days I use a Streak 6 x 5 Summoner with the bells
The Streakpult spirit is intact

Try again later. 360 m is OP with medium crushing power. Every kill streakboats make is complete cheese. The only defense I'm hearing is the lore fanboy argument and skill less players frequent it which is sad. This is not okay. Game was way better when a spider 5V or a locust could do well, now its, "OH I'm so cool! I can solo kill a jenner without even trying for the event, or run 4 streak boats in CW and charge right on through while sipping coffee and eating doughnuts." Garbage.

Geez....tier 1 and still crying over weapon systems...after clan LRM it has the slowest cooldown times, SIX full seconds for the streak-6. And clan streaks can be intercepted by AMS systems. 360 meters is exactly the tabletop game range for the things, as 270 is for regular SRMs and IS streak-2s. If anything they should eliminate the maximum range feature of weapons, and reduce LRMs to the 630 meters they're supposed to be.

Funny how Shadow Cats carry 50% more streak tubes than the Catapult-A1 ever could. And the Maddog carries 300% more.
And after all these years, the Streaks still profit from Artemis....
