[New Merc] XCAT

(MrSoUndso) #1

[Disclaimer : English is not my first language]

Bio: XCAT was working for an company that was developing special weapons for the U.S. Navy. When she heared about the dirty bomb attack, she moved to London and became a powerful fighter.

First Ability: XCAT pulls 2 knifes out and activates her suit.
With this she will run 20% faster than normal and can hover 3s in midair.
While in this mode she can only use her melee weapons.
This ability will last 20s with an cooldown of 50s.

Second ability: Ammo Station.

HP and speed: same as Bushwacker

uh… hover adjustable? height of hover? how would this be useful?

(HunterAssassin5) #3

and how is this supposed to be a fire support?

(MrSoUndso) #4

You should be able to jump on the containers on terminal.

I like ammo stations so i gave one to her

A load of community members hate that phantom was considered ‘melee oriented’ by some. Even if you ‘do that idea correctly,’ there will be people who start spouting complaints about this ‘not being Chivalry or a melee game.’ Fun idea, but I’m skeptical about its application in Dirty Bomb.

and i like miniguns so ill put a minigun on every merc i create.
you cant do that just because “you like it”, and i cant put miniguns on every merc i make. this is the world we live in.

You like money, you will give me your money.

(MrSoUndso) #9

Do you have a better idea?

(gg2ez) #10

If you want my honest opinion, I wouldn’t spend an idea on this merc if I had one. She pulls out two knives, gets a speed boost, magically hovers for 3 seconds, and has an ammo station because you like ammo stations. There’s nothing to expand on.

(MrSoUndso) #11

She can hover because of her suit.

(MrSoUndso) #12

I realy like Ammo Stations

(TheVulpesFox) #13

Hahahahaha.
You make me laugh

Making your suggestion more interesting:
She can use only 1 melee weapon: Ballistic Knives, 2 at same time.
Primary weapons should be SMGs.
Secondaries: Pistols.
Her suit, letting her hover in the air, isn’t suitable to carry ammo stations. She only will have this skill.
HP and movement speed should be the same as Phoenix, since we can balance his playstyle (Movement speed) with HP.

(MrSoUndso) #16

This is a really good idea. Betterthan my suggestion.

Great idea, this however won’t currently fit into the playstile that is in my opinion “Dirty-Bomb”

This is summing up a lot of my opinion as well, maybe as the community moves in a new direction it might be considered.

…Forgot last time: rocketjumps/increased mobility through gliding might be broken in DB if implemented wrongly.

(TheVulpesFox) #19

It would be broken in any game if implemented incorrectly
