Ability/merc ideas

(YeezusChrist) #1

Idea 1
Hunter type merc that can set down a bear trap or something similar restricting movement of whoever steps in the area. His second ability is to throw a decoy of himself while he goes invisible for 3 seconds

Idea 2
Cameras! The mercenary is able to set down 2 maybe 3 cameras with the Q button. The views of these cameras may be switched by pressing the E button. Only one camera view will be on the merc’s screen at a time. This merc would probably also be a technician

Idea 3
Mercenary drives around a drone (land or air) which marks all targets seen by it. It can be destroyed and player will only be able to drive it for 10-15 seconds.

Idea 4
pulse like Phoenix pulse but with farther range that disables all deployables (Aura station, turrets, proxy mines, etc.) for a certain amount of time

Idea 5
gas grenade that lowers enemy healing by 75% for 5 seconds

Idea 6
Merc puts up a wall that lasts for 5 seconds and has a certain amount of health

I would love to hear what you guys think about these ideas!

…Can you fix the FIRST invisible guy on the team, first?

cameras: we have that incoming with aimee if she isn’t entirely changed.

drone: you’ll get shot in the face as you’re playing tetris on your little screen

disable pulse: … uhh thunder. We’re trying to give reasons to play him, not ignore his ability.

gas nade: … I spy with my red eye…

Iron wall: … you DO know Turtle is upcoming as a possible released merc next, right?

You do research before you post, yes? o.o;

No, I do not research everything about Dirty Bomb but I have now looked at Turtle and Aimee. I also do not think that the Phantom needs to be fixed. He is fine how he is. The gas nade that I am talking about would not restrict vision like Red Eye’s smoke gernade. It would reduce healing as I said. Also, for the drone, you would be able to exit out of it at any time. Yes, you would have to find a good hiding place or just deploy it from farther back where the enemy would not reach you. I also do not understand how you think driving a drone is similar in any way to playing Tetris. Thank you for your feedback.
