[MERC] Volt (UPDATED)

[gg2ez]

“2000 volts, just for you!”

Assault-Medic, 120HP, 400SP, British.

Volt always looked up to his father, never saw him much but was inspired nevertheless. Volt’s father was a military field medic, every now and then he would come home and share his battle stories with Volt - alas, one day he never came home, killed during service. Volt swore on the day of the funeral service that he would heal the wounded just as his late father did in his life, a noble cause. Volt became a medical researcher during his lifetime with the goal of creating tools that would help him patch up his allies on the field and thus, the formidable “Shock Grenade” was developed.

Appearance - Volt is an adult easily identifying within his mid twenties. He has a muscular build as a result of watching his mum’s aerobics DvDs and can easily operate heavy weaponry. He has matte brown hair and wears his facial hair in a well-kept handlebar moustache (serious).

@blisteringNest Here it is!

@gg2ez
I think Skyhammer stats shoul be the base for his HP and SP
I also dont think the granade shoudl deal that damage in a further radius than fraggers because he would basicly have a better overall granade than him.
plus he can already carry 2 he is a Medic he shodulnt be a firepower force IMO!.

but i do like the conecpt overall but not so much the execution, and someone else Az,ed this conceptt already hehehhehehe…

but still kinda good idea.

@astoundingShellfish Sorry, this merc suggestion is all about firepower - I’m not changing the weapons.

The radius of the Shock Grenade is something I’m working on toning down but either way, Fragger’s grenades can still gib on kill, cook, and bounce, the Shock Grenade can do none of these things.

The stats might change.

Yes, I know that @blisteringNest posted Az, read the comments on his post. Thus also why I tagged him in a comment in this post to come see the idea.

[ASTOUNDINGSHELL]

@gg2ez Fraggers aint gib on kill unless it point blank.
and i didnt ment firepwoer for guns i ment that he had a bit to much hp for a medic class.
I dont get why peopel want to make a tanky medic but its them!

I dont think a “Medic” should be able to easily outperfrom combat Mercs.

also why the 410sp?
i thnk it should be 400.
He has ARs already.

[blisteringOwlNest]

Cool idea, love the electric theme. Though I do think the grenades do a bit too much damage, insta killing the smaller merc seems a bit much! Love the quips as well

[sentimentalDime]

I like the idea, but, I don’t really think the grenades would work that well, as 80 HP every 30 seconds is a bit underwhelming, my suggestion would be, remove the defibs and shorten the cooldown of the grenades to maybe 15 seconds.

I’m updating it tonight so stay tuned. @blisteringNest @sentimentalDime @astoundingShellfish

@gg2ez I feel a grenade the does damage and heals is a way overpowered idea. Once you add damage the class goes from medic to a multi-class. And multiclasses will not be added to the game as the game gets “broken” then. When a class can play multiple roles the class stops playing for the team and more for themselves. So my point is, the healing grenade is an AMAZING concept, but I feel it shouldn’t do damage to enemies.

[wolvie]

I feel the hp needs to be lowered a bit as well. Your creating a tank of a medic and medics aren’t supposed to be tanks

@wolvie I’m not lowering the HP any lower. The concept is a heavy medic, that won’t change.

@blisteringNest @astoundingShellfish @sentimentalDime Merc updated! Adjusted balancing stats as requested.

[gg2ez]

UPDATED: Concept art added.

@astoundingShellfish I coloured it (a little bit) this time.
