Skyhammer can ‘throw granades’ while indoors, but as for Kira and Arty their options appear much more limited when it comes to indoors. Hence, I thought if it could be possible to have decreased AoE damage in the form of falling glass shards and/or concrete blocks for airstrikes and artillery. As for the laser; have molten concrete or glass drip down.
Something not as deadly as their abilities under open air.
I don’t think we need this. It’s true that Arty and Kira (and to a much lesser extent Skyhammer) are at a disadvantage indoors, but most of this actually comes from the nature of their primary weapons.
Having the artillery strike and killsat only work outside adds an extra layer of gameplay and it doesn’t stop fire supports doing anything they didn’t already want to avoid.
Give the poor Asians pet tiger cub sitting on their shoulder, make them follow the laser pointer to indoors and bite everyone silly enough to stand on their way. Cue hilarity and nasty scratches.
I’m sorry, but with today’s contributions to the meme thread I am going to have to insist that it be nyan cat.
I posted it before, but they they could consider giving Arty and Kira the ability to blind enemies with their targeting lasers. Geneva convention be damned.
If it’s anything like that annoying flashlight from Battlefield I fully support this idea.

They should at least make it so you don’t have to worry about the glass roofs. Skyhammer is already the only one of the three who can use his ability indoors to some extent, but he is also the only one who doesn’t have to worry about glass roofs.
Kind of irrelevant because once Stoker is introduced, he’ll become the dominant indoor support merc with skyhammer behind him and arty/keira both equally weak.
Stoker’s gonna dominate with not only my favourite voice so far, but an indoor outdoor merc ability.
Doesn’t seem that balanced does it?
However, the upcoming maps Dome/Canal have a LOT of open roofs. I played as Arty, and it was AMAZING. The map design has improved tenfold. The current maps are pretty bad.
