Positron popped into the tanker balance thread to drop this little bombshell.

"While giving Tankers a High-Damage, Super Slow attack -looks- good on paper, in practice this is very very dangerous. We don't want a situation where combats become trivial simply because everyone in the group starts stacking Alpha Strikes on villains."



While many were quick to tell him that horse had been out of the barn for a while, it's still completely boggling to me that a dev could be that completely out of touch with their game so soon after release. While Cryptic claims to do extensive data mining, it looks like they are hampered heavily by not knowing where to dig for ore.
