Merc Idea: 'Stem' the Life-support medic

(tokamak) #1

This guy keeps you alive while you die. His medpacks are life-support systems with all kinds of nasty drugs that will keep you fighting.

  • Active ability:

  • Stem’s health packs heal much slower than the ‘original’ ones. However, once the healthpack has fully healed you, you will stay alive and kicking for another three seconds the moment someone kills you.

  • His passive ability:
    The moment Stem dies he will keep fighting for another three to eight seconds, depending on how many people he he has revived/healed before that happens.

This would be great if instead he keeps alive while you are taking damage uber mode style for like 5 seconds but then exploded from all the nasty chemicals into a red mist that acts as smoke screen for a few seconds. And he has the most tentacle rape/xenomorph looking ability gun that shoots cables into team mates and injects glowing blue goo into them. That would be cool.

Also if you are the one being kept alive your vision should swell as the pressure builds before you explode.

Like a taser with fleshooks. Yeah I like that. Gameplay wise that’s even more interesting because it requires the medic to commit to a player that is about to die.

It’s basically TF2’s invulnerability but under a different condition and with a sick twist.
