I cant really train at bottom newties because it seems like they glitch and dont have the attack delay upon spawn sometimes, which causes me to take a hit and throws me off balance.

That's not really a glitch, it's just the way servers and monster aggro works. Basically, when you're the only one in the map, monsters will react more quickly to you. Since Newties are auto-aggro, this makes it seem like they're attacking you right as they spawn. An easy way to fix this is just to put a mule in the map, or train in a map where someone is afking. Any mule will do, you just need to have *someone* in the map with you to mess up the Newtie's targeting system.

Also, two questions about the balance patch:
1)Is the formula for the new battleship HP known yet?
2)Does Burst Fire get a boost too? because if it doesn't, isn't Rapid Fire becoming better at lvl 1? (Burst fire as it is is approx 55k%\min, when the new Rapid Fire is 132%*500=approx 60k%\min)

1) No.
2) No, and yes.
