Poll: High Alert _or_ Superintendent Level 3 skill for Battleships

[_Bohica_]

Greetings.  After trying to search for this answer on the forums, I either cannot find the information or it dealt with issues from many patches ago.

 

So from 12/11/2015 forward, I would love to know which to invest in for my Battleship Captain's level 3 skill.

1. High Alert, or
2. Superintendent

 

I tend to lean towards that lovely extra dose of healing.  But I must admit I've had games where I never need, or get to, that third charge - let alone needing a fourth.

But that fact that flooding and fire damage can be 100% healed makes this tempting.

 

On the other hand, on shaving off a paltry 12 or 9 seconds off a lengthy repair also doesn't seem to do the trick either.  Especially if you aren't using the upgraded consumable in the first place (Shave 12 seconds off with a valuable skill, or pay a bit more coin for a full 30 seconds off, if I remember correctly).  Of course the few times I've flooded to death (multiple hits) does make me look twice at this.

 

So before I spend my points, I would love to see where most Battleship Captains have decided upon these days, under the newest patches.

 

Of course I left answers 3 and 4 in the poll in case there are things I'm missing depending on the meta-game (tier, country, premium, inter-geographic-politics, whichever tea Serb drinks these days, etc).

I went with Super after release.. as I tend to get primaried. Also works really well with the signal flag.

I always go superintendent. Used correctly, that extra heal is a treat.

Eventually, both, but SI first in my opinion.

Thank you for all of your responses.

 

Now I feel I personally know which way to go.

Within a day plenty of overwhelming answers to the poll too.

Superintendent

Very encouraging in tough brawls to have that last powerup

When you're using the premium heal with the lower cooldown (for ranked and maybe high tier randoms if you want), superintendent becomes extremely valuable; you can easily burn through all those heals, and an extra 5-15k hp is a huge deal.
