I think the Cannonfire changes were needed. Previously it was nearly impossible for a mech to use the ramps without instantly dying. In their current state, cannons are strong against mechs and (non-healer) players, but not overpowered.

The fact that a single healer can tank two cannons working in tandem without breaking a sweat, is an issue with healers being overpowered, not with cannons being underpowered. Healers need a major nerf, and this is just another sign of it.

I also think that 3000-tonze Missile needs a range reduction. Now that Steam Cannons can't instantly kill Oppressors, it's an unfair advantage for Oppressors to be able to hide behind the north fence, firing their Missiles, while Steam Cannons are powerless to stop them.
