ABILITIES

#1: Swarm: Swarm’s primary ability, Swarm, is a Swarm of “Lethal Mosquitoes”, which target the enemy team, each one does 5 dmg per second for 40 seconds, unless they get medical help(So even the lowest hp none medic can survive with 5hp left).
There are 5 Mosquitoes in total which target the enemy team, randomly but they prioritize on the high hp mercs first, if there are less players, less get deployed(max one mosquitoe per merc) but on a shorter cool down.
The normal cool down is 40 seconds if all five are used, but you loose 5 second cool down per mosquitoe not used.
They travel at a speed of 450 and are very hard to see, but can still be hit and have only 1hp each.
If a mosquitoe kills a merc and there is time left in the 20 second duration, he goes to other mercs if there arenot currently being assaulted, or it dies, and lowers the cool down for 5 seconds for the next time.

#2: Ammo-pack

NOTES:I am aware we might need to change the numbers for balance, please tell me what you think in the comments below, Thanks!!!

I had to recalculate, new SPECS: DPS, 2/sec/20sec/mousquitoe

I was thinking of something similar. I was going to name him FIREFLY. But in your case 5 damage for 40 sec before helped out by medic seems a bit overpowered and also it will easily kill low HP merc. It will become really difficult if you don’t have any medic on your team which keeps happening now and then.

@Pingu_1 what if? We would nerf dmg to 3ps?

The point is that unless you have a medic, a weapon with a high rate of fire, and high health to start off with, this character’s ability becomes a death sentence all on its own: not even including other players shooting.
