An assortment of ideas I have that may be too small as individual threads or quick summaries of bigger, more grand ideas, or just ideas that may have seemed fun at first with no real thought put into them X3
Shield Recharger (Usable)
-A useable similar to remedy capsules but upon using, instantly recharges your shield.
CTR Low on "Guardian" gear
-I was thinking about Troika line charges and the complimentary, under-powered/under-appreciated Plate Mail line. I imagine Guardians spamming charged attacks often providing heavy hitting support. CTR Low on the helm and armour for a total of CTR Med. Probably needs more thought.
Long-Range support weapons?
-Similar to the weapons Gremlin Mortafires use in OCH. Definitely needs more thought but I can imagine it being a very fun weapon to use especially in Lockdown.
-Charge attack to set-up weapon, ready to fire.
-Movement keys no longer move character but moves camera as if player was moving; target cursor added were player should be for aiming.
-Single-click to attack. Shield to pack up. Getting hit packs immediately?
- I have no idea if this should be a sub-genre of bombs or a new genre of weaponry altogether. Probably as a sub-genre.
Mini bombs!
-Small bombs, small radius, not so awesome damage, regular attacks places the bomb. Probably not practical.
Dance Emote!
-I always want to see my avatar actually dance when I type in /dance instead of "Nexassassin has the urge to dance!". This might be in the works though I have no idea.
That's all for now! ^.^
I congratulate the amount of intelligence used to create this suggestion compared to most of the recent vomit which has defiled this forum. This is far less horrible than most other recent threads. However, it still has issues.
Your shield regenerates over time. Very quickly over time, come to think of it. By the time a restoration vial for your shield can be found and used your shield would have repaired itself already, if not multiple times.
Plate lines are designed to be for defense, not another means of attack. Notice the only armor which gives a charge bonus are the bomb specialist equipment, Chaos, and the Seerus masks; then there are the weapon specialist trinkets and the occasional weapon UV. Plate is supposed to be the "guardian" archetype, able to tank melee attacks; it has normal defense, but lacks where it counts in bonuses: it has no positive bonuses. I have sturrf for repurposing Plate lines here.
A grenade. That is what you are implying. No further detail necessary.
This is how bombs worked in beta. Now they only work with a charge attack. Do the math.
