The Catalyzer charge attack does no damage, and harmlessly(for the moment) circumscribes the enemy, so why do enemies with shields block the charge bullet? The charge attack shouldn't be blocked by Mecha Knights, Dreadnaughts, Almire Crusaders, Trojans, Gremlin Thwackers, EDIT:and Mortafires (excluding total invincibility shield enemies). All 4 main bosses, battlepods, etc. with total invincibility shields would still be able to block Catalyzer charge bullets because they have total invincibility.

Enemies will still block the explosions though.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

Actually, they actually block you when you try to detonate the charged shots which you've made. Not the explosion.

Also, I support. I've suggested this before, but yep. Actually I was suggesting that you can tag things no matter WHAT state the foe is in. In other words, you can tag something like crazy and then blow it sky high the moment you can. :P

OP, yes. But it's dead slow atm. This would make it rival pulsars.

"Tag things no matter what"

I'd say no to this, unless you can elaborate.
Roarmulus Twins run: plant charges on RT, disable it, instagib.
Snarbolax run: plant charges on Snarby while he/she is black, then instagib.
Battlepod: plant charges while it's doing its random attack stuffs, sit 'round, then instagib.

By "Enemies will still block the explosions though"...
I meant that if the charge orbited around the enemy and got to the shield area of the enemy, the enemy could still block explosion damage. I was trying to clarify that this change would be only for allowing placement of the charges on enemies that have their shields up (except complete invuln shields).

Vanaduke invincibility.

Does this applies to vanaduke when is in th mask phase ?
I mean, not the mask itself but the body is still targetable ?

Also +1.

ok.

good suggestion, and catlyzer users will be happy. the limits are good. well, +1.
atholl, I don't think you can damage vanaduke in the mask phase. and the mask in invincible unless watered. so no.
