New item proposal: Helman Power Cell

Jul 27, 2020 We all float link
I propose that Helman's be equipped with a slightly better hive fast charge power cell. Helmans are not seen too often. They are mostly seen either protecting queens or sometimes hanging out in hive sectors floating around doing nothing. Their primary strength is their high armor (60k for the K-3's, 80k for the K-27).

There is little to be gained by killing these bots because the weapons they drop can't be equipped early on due to lic issues. I propose that their power cells be buffed to make them a little more offensively frightening from sustained firepower. Since the drop would be a hive drop, the powercell could be equipped by anyone.

Helman Advanced Hive Fast Charge

Capacity 400
Charge Rate 49/s
Mass 250kg
Grid 20
Level Bot Drop

The Hive fast charge has 48/s. 49 is an improvement over the 48. And why 18 grid? and what would be wrong with placing this on a rag? A Rag's turbo drain is 50/s, so a rag could not turbo indefinitely with this.
