Selfish merc idea: PARASITE or SPIRIT DRINKER

Member force drain from Star Wars games?

OOOoooohhh… It felt so good taking one’s life at your own gain… didn’t it?
Why not add a merc which consumes pinned down enemies or something? He could restore his health/ammo, however I didn’t come up with “TEAMWORK” part of him. Cause I got no idea…

wait so this merc can replenish ammo and health from downed enemies? seems like a decent idea. Though we’re gonna need specifics as to how much health it restores.

Sure, all stats are welcome for playtesting.

Heck, in DOOM 4 and MGR you can replenish health.

now that i think about it isnt this ability just a buffed version of the looter augment where if u kill a medic a small health pack drops and for others an ammo pack drops? well apart from this ability we’re gonna need some other abilities. Cause on its own right now it doesnt serve any purpose

I am aware of the looter augment.

But if there’s an augment, in which non engineer merc can repair/plant faster. Then why not make a merc based around Looter augment?

For now, the teamwork part of him I can only think of “Supply Packs”. Those packs could both heal and restore ammo, although not as well as med or ammo packs.

He’s suppose to be a scavenger type of merc or something.
