Merc idea: Covertte


(MrLashnibro) #1

“Ah just like fish in a can”

Background: A former Black Operative, Covertte was known for her destructive nature with the X-RL1 AKA the Railgun due to her lack of working as a team and not her preferred taste, she decided to leave the Black Ops and now a freelance mercenary for any kind of dirty wet work.

Gender: Female
Nationality: American
Class: Fire Support

Stats:
Health: 100
Sprint speed: 410
C4: 5s (arming), 5s(defuse)

Weapons:
Primaries: FA-14 (M1014), BR-16, M9
Secondaries: D50, M9, Machine Pistol
Melee: Beckhill Combat Knife, Cricket Bat, Kukri

Abilities:
Ability 1: Ammo Packs
Ability 2: Railgun: The Railgun is a massive damage dealing weapon that does 150 damage to the body and 200 to the head. It can penetrate through players meaning that this is a degib-ing weapon but will NOT penetrate through walls though. After each shot it needs to be reloaded with a 4 second reload time and only hold 3 shots, takes 30 seconds to recharge one shot. It also has a lock on time about 2,5 seconds so you can’t shoot it instantly. When you fire it you will be highlighted on the map so be careful. It also has a thermal sight similar to Red Eye’s IR Goggles

Tactics: The Railgun is a powerful one shot weapon and it can penetrate the enemies so try to line up the other team members to kill them at once. Once you ran out of your shots try to hide so you won’t be exposed. Also it deals considerably good damage to the EV or any building objectives but meant to take out large groups of enemies

Fight back: Like mention above, once Covertte fired a shot try to notice her on the minimap to take her out, try also not be in a line or you’ll be wiped out along with other teammates. Since her weapons are mostly close and medium range try to take her out from the distance with a sniper rifle.

Seems like a bad version of the sniper rifles…


(ASTOUNDINGSHELL) #3

I kinda like it, but it lacks the AOE potential of other FS


(MrLashnibro) #4

null
The other FS is mainly for things like EV on Chapel or Bridge if you’re on the CDA not many are focused on the players. This however ment to be played to take out the players not the objective itself

Sniper rifles do everything this thing does, only better.

Better range? Check.
Faster fire rate? Check.
Instagibs on low health? Check.
Can kill multiple people if they stand in a line? Check.
Higher mag size? Check.
No cooldown? Check.
Higher DPS? Check.

Want me to keep going or is this enough?

@TheRyderShotgun
One shot for the gun every 30 seconds… I wouldn’t consider that infinite ammo as i could easily go to an ammo station in that time as Vassili

All those points you’re making are things where the railgun performs just as good or worse as a sniper, except the gibbing part, which honestly doesn’t make up for the ridicoulous cooldown.

Well you gotta balance it somehow


(sentimentalDime) #12

But it’s not balanced, as it performs worse than a sniper, but also has a very high cooldown.
