In regards to the Katana.....

I’ll leave this here…

If you wanna allow Phantom to attack while cloaked, maybe this will be a good way to give people a chance to react.

I’m confused how would adding a big lunge help the situation? Didn’t they patched that away from Phantom because it was to imba?

Or are you talking about HRF? Wouldn’t wanna see that in DB I mean I loved it in BLR but the whole game was designed around that specific mechanic.

Or are you talking about weapon pickups? I honestly wouldn’t wanna see that can opened either.
People would A. demand that we could pick up any weapon. Which means the potential of a fragger with a sniper rifle or a Rhino with a Kek-10 as his new primary. B. even if it is limited to the katana only. Every Pub would completely devolve into a hunt the Phantom for his shiny sword and go on a rampage of your own game.

Either way attacking from stealth is fine IMO getting the firststrike is what makes phantom revolves around wether you use melee or longrange. The Katana is too strong right now compared to any other melee weapon no doubt. But as soon as they reign it back in line phantom will more or less be fine.

I’m saying that if people have a problem with killing people like Sparks, instantly from cloaking, maybe adding a charge up to it would give them a fair amount of time to get away…

So even if you are invisible, you have to wait a bit to land a powerful blow, therefore, adding some counter play.

It’s just a food for thought
