Analysis
Review
The Mech that broke the PVP and changed the meta to anti-siege in merely a few hours after the release. Why? Not only it had around 180k HP when geared, which combined with high DEF made really hard to kill. But the biggest issue was the basic attack - it dealt a whooping 30% of the target's remaining HP over 1 second after hitting someone and for whatever reason the damage bypasses MDL. There are videos floating around with Evolved One simply dying in a few seconds after Goliath started pounding on her.
Still, the developers reacted quickly and, the same day released a statement that they were looking into the issue. One week later Goliath was nerfed and it looks like it may have been too harsh. Not only were its stats lowered drastically, but also the bonus damage to ships was removed. This basically made him a worse Rhino in PVP.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- uhm, hard to find those after the nerf,
- has some niche uses against Replacer King boss in Danger Close.
Cons
- basically useless in PVE, besides the latest boss added to Danger Close,
- and also useless in PVP after the nerf.
