[Merc] "Someone can Hijack"


(TheFoolArcana) #1

Before EVERYTHING: English is not my native language, thanks for understanding.

There are another “Discussion” with the same title, but what will have here is different from the other.
I will not build his/her Lore/Story, only his abilities, class and weapons loadout.

About his, or her name and genre: I don’t know, you guys decide, nothing passed on my mind.

Class: Engineer (Focused on Objectives).
HP and Speed: Same as Phoenix.

Primary Weapons:

Blishlok
Crotzni
KEK-10

With these weapons, the merc can deal w/ anyone at any range due its DPS and Effective Range.

Secondaries:

Caulden
DE .50
Simeon .357

Same as above, and as secondaries, his function is to finish the enemy if the primary runs out of ammo from current mag.

Melee weapons:

Beckhill Combat Knife
Stilnotto Stiletto
Kukri

In another point, we need to maximize the speed efficiency for him/her, or can have Kukri to suprise the enemy with high damage.

Now, the abilities:

Objective Specialist: Like the other Engineers, can repair/desarm/arm objectives faster.

Hijacker Device: For appearance, like the “mobile phone” used from Engineers desarming/planting C4.
His/her device can “hack/hijack” enemies’ deployables, like Proxy’s mines, Bushwhacker’s Turret and even Vassili’s Heartbeat sensor. Effect? The deployable will treat as a allies’ deployable. Is used in range, since this device have a infra-red to recognize the enemy’s deployable. Single use, cooldown is 20s.
Explanation:
In other words, you are this merc and you spot a enemy proxy’s mine, you hijack this mine, stealing from her, now enemies can die for you for this same mine. Other example: Bush’s turret, you hack, now you have the turret, sit and enjoy your new turret.
This ability grants X support EXP when successfully hijacked the enemy’s deployable and depending what deployable you hijacked, you can earn EXP for his function, like Heartbeat sensor “Spoted - 20 EXP”

And this THIRD ABILITY…Come on guys, we can’t threat Phoenix as special since he have 3 skills.

“C4 toy”: He can plant a “small” C4 on EV’s, causing 50% damage on EV and the same real C4 damage for enemies next to the “small” C4. To plant this C4, the time used to plant the C4 objective is the same, for enemies, they can disarm the C4 like a Engineer, but the time they have until detonates is 25 seconds, half of the real C4, if they successfully disarms the C4 toy, grants X support EXP. Single use, cooldown is 1 minute.
This ability grants X combat EXP when planted and detonates, still can earn gamemode EXP since you will damage the EV. For optional, this ability can be used planting it on walls or ground, the characteristics is the same.

This third ability isn’t so much OP, since it’s easy to deal, and the merc needs support to reach his wishes on battlefield. But it’s more effective using on Objective/Stopwatch gamemodes, Execution is too random to use this ability, but this can bring a trophy.

…no… stahp… please… I’ve already ranted on this. - And the only reason Pheonix has a third ability is because of how rarely it can be used with any good results.

Also, you underestimate just how much damage a c4 in DB does.
(For those curious, it’s ALL the damage.)
