A speedrun of FSC with four people wearing Striker shields as they are in Lockdown.

Make it happen, OOO.

Because running headlong into tumbling spike wheels is by far the best way to survive in FSC.

Class Mods in Cradle

I want to see how the Class Mods in general would work in the Clockworks.

How much punishment can a Guardian Shield withstand?
How do mobs react to cloaked Recons, and can they be effectively taken down from the shadows?
How effective is the Striker-Jet when dealing with groups of monsters?

I think they should create mini-games and/or missions where these Mods are used in the Clockworks...after testing shows it is a good idea, of course.

"Because running headlong into tumbling spike wheels is by far the most fun way to die hilariously in FSC."

Fixed. You may be right in essence, but that's half the reason why this should happen. Streamed mind you, and perhaps played by the devs themselves.

Oh and @Shidara

Guardian shield has about as much defense as a crest of almire, but against everything. Despite the bar hinting otherwise, it likely has way more health though. It's likely more powerful than any shield except maybe an ancient plate against a pure Normal damage type like a trojan. The real perk is that it regenerates health, which would be overpowered in the clockworks.

I think I've seen rock jellies chase cloaked recons before. Recon cloak is probably coded to just get rid of your character's model, the mobs should target you by your presence within a certain radius of themselves. Recons would have the toughest time unless that was changed. Don't know about striker.

I was thinking more along the lines of OOO making is possible, and players that can do FSC in their sleep (which is a lot of them now) do the speedrun.

The bomb effect would make shivering Vanadork hard though. But I guess you don't need to if you're a striker.

Sounds very fun though.

Vanaduke= No problem

It would make Vanaduke very easy.
Though it is already easy for most end gamers.

I can already tell you what it's going to be like.

They will never die, and they will utterly and completely destroy everything.
It wouldn't even be funny.

Pray for a rock jelly on Lockdown and you'll see.....

Dead Jelly

Problem is, that thing ends up dying before you get to hug it. At least when I see it, 'cause it gets in my way and is generally a pain in the neck when I'm busy fighting players.

Anyway, seems like Recon would be completely useless for PvE.

That is...

If they even work on monsters. Even if mobs can be affected by the pulse, you would have to kite incoming attacks shield-less, putting yourself at great risk. Some might think of it as a great offensive measure to allow any weapon to deal massive damage, but should you get cornered you won't have a shield to knock them back with. Unless you can retain the ability to stay hidden, picking Recon over any of the other classes would be a waste. Offensive players would hit the Striker Mod anyway.

Simply open your loadout in lockdown, you have that shield equipped as a guardian. Screenshots from players are also up on the wiki.
