A Better Detonator

(_Sniff_) #1

To help make sticky trapping and long range sticky bombs easier I think when you old down E you draw the detonator and it does not detonate until you release E.

This is a better system because you can more accurately time the detonations with less key strokes. If you are trying to secure your exit or throw a long range and want to detonate it as soon as it is about to hit the ground it has a more accurate timing.

Thoughts?

Well, it looks like a rather harmless quality of life change to me. I have no reason to be against it.

yes i suggested this before too, it makes room for carefully timed explosions, especially for set traps, dunno what the on flight bombs would look like but I think it’d be more accurate overall.

thats good idea, wont change too much but would reward good Fletchers like you

Well who are we to argue with sniff in relation to a change to Fletcher?

46 seconds is the closest example I have of a air burst sticky bomb. If he was any further away/I had to throw further I would of had to of taken the detonator out to time the explosion.

There’s always that one troll kid that makes a new account just to “disagree” with my stuff.

I am salty :smiley:

Also would be nice if any devs would notice this… any dev… any… dev…

Interesting idea. It would definitely be nice to set up traps rather than always play aggressively

So in other words I can throw my sticks, while holding the detonator, and when I release it’ll detonate?

Seems like a good way to solve one of my problems with them. I’d so prefer to just have bombs be left click, and detonate be right click.

The only problem with this is people screaming out for a nerf against fletcher, and until they give him one this will only make his slay power even stronger.

But it doesn’t bother me, I personally don’t think he needs a nerf and couldn’t care less, but I can see why some other people might be against it.

Missed opportunity to call the thread “betternator”

I like that idea but no, my idea is being able to hold the quick switch key to draw out the detonator and releasing E to detonate it.

It would be nice to have 3 little red lights to tell you when your stickies arm.
