[Merc] Ryu


(civilTriangle) #1

Name - Ryu (Debatable)
Nationality - Japanese
Gender- Male (Debatable)

Description- After training a lifetime in the way of the sword, Ryu decided to use his skills for his own benefit. Soon after a life of assassinating and living in the shadows, Ryu grew bored. Searching for a challenge and to help hone his skils, Ryu decided to join the fight.

Quote- “Do not be afraid when you see me, be afraid when you don’t.”

Hp: 100-130
Speed: 500

Abilities- (Passive) Being an assassin, Ryu has always needed to be hidden from sight. Ryu has the ability to cling to the walls (and roofs) he jumps to and can jump from them too. Also, Ryu is able to climb a ledge if he gets close enough to it.

Dash- When activated, Ryu runs in a straight line. This increases his speed by 50%. Unfortunately, Ryu cannot turn, or attack, during dash. Ryu will keep running until the skill is manually ended. Ending the skill happens instantly, with no downtime for getting shot or otherwise. (Cooldown: 30 seconds.)

Primary: None

Secondary: All pistols.

Melee: Katana. Also, obviously he does more melee damage than the rest of the classes.

A sort of throwback to Ninja Gaidan. Also, I want a ninja.

Edit: Upon seeing the stats, i would make his speed somewhere from 530-600 due to having no guns.


(ASTOUNDINGSHELL) #3

he sounds more annoyin irritating and unblanced than you think…
its a good cncept but he doenst seem to be much…interesting to paly as. plus weve already got phantom coming back

Don’t know who Phantom is, but after playing the game for the last few hours, I will admit that the speed is too high. Besides that, I think it would be fairly decent to work with. I mean, It’s not like he would be of any use in the larger maps like Underground or Chapel. At least, the very open parts.


(ASTOUNDINGSHELL) #5

yeah its a good concept ofr a CQC assasin

Plus, I think it’s slightly more fair/balanced than Phantoms invisibility/bullet shield. The only real problem I can imagine is people camping with the ledge holding. Maybe only able to hod until you lose your grip, a.k.a 5 seconds collectively until you hit the ground and recharge it.


(ASTOUNDINGSHELL) #7

Yeah maybe make his movement liek the one in Brink seems like a good idea to me


(civilTriangle) #8

Don’t know much about Brink So I can’t say anything about that.


(civilTriangle) #9

Upon looking at some gameplay, I agree with that statement.
