New Merc Suggestion - Bunker

(APRenpsy) #1

Just a idea I like to throw out, the idea here it to have something to counter MG Camps.

Name: Bunker

Role: Defensive Enforcement - Damage Absorber

Primary Weapon: Lever Action Slug Shotgun - (Three Rounds In Clip|No Instant Kill But Lots Of DMG)
Secondary Weapon: Deagle

Q - Ability: Body Bunker - AKA Heavy Riot Shield - Works on a toggle, when shield is up blocks all damage in front by 75%, restricts weapon to secondary.

Tell me your thoughts, considering I just wrote this up because of a sudden thought there got to be design flaws.

There was a merc in the works by the name of turtle that was an engineer that was meant to drop barriers or a forcefield, that said that sounds like what an assault is meant to do.

For those who have not met him, Turtle would be the guy in blue with the nose piercing in the top picture of the official DB web site and Facebook / Twitter pages. But his deployable barrier was so far shown as static.

A merc with a moveable riot shield could be an interesting idea as he/she could be fairly week on its own (slow, limited firepower), but when backed properly by teammates could be great for breaking through choke points.

I like the idea of the shield, it’s used in two of my merc ideas too :smiley:

Yeah a merc with a shield would be cool ^^
