Tesla updated ( new merc ) well balanced :what do you think?

(Gatlinghawk) #1

[left]Tesla was a very talented electrical engineer and worked for a very classified electronics division inventing some particularly recognizable gadgets (REVIVR,proxy’s mines, etc), before she went under. For ten years no one has seen or heard of her… until the radiation took over that is…
Hearing of a mercenary recruitment, she took the job, not knowing what she was getting herself into.
But she doesn’t care. If there’s a transaction of cash taking place, you will most likely spot her.
.
access to shotguns, small smgs(leave comment to help me with good loadout selections)[remember your ideas, will be added to this merc]
.
Health Points…100
Speed…420
C-4 arm…3 Sec.
C-4 disarm…4 Sec.
Hack disable-ability…0.5 sec.
Full-Hack ability…3 sec.

Tesla’s Melee is her Electrical whip (E-Whip) doing lots of damage to the individual who is being ensnared.
.

[Left clicking] launches her whip forward. This produces a lethal current with high amounts of voltage.
Launching the whip forward injureing those who are hit.
.

[Right clicking] lassos players and brings them downwith lethal injuries and burns.
.
Tesla’s [E] ability is also her special Hack ability. Holding this down for 0.5 seconds “hacks” a nearby enemy electronic device(more on this later).
.
Hack Ability
Tesla’s [E] ability is also her Hack ability. Holding this down for 0.5 seconds “hacks” a nearby enemy electronic device
and disables it temporarily for a full 7 seconds. If continued to hold down [E], the device will “switch” teams.
For Ex: an enemy health station no longer gives health to the enemy team, but will give health to yours.
(Only one device may be switched at a time).
.
A hacked device will emit a green or yellow light (instead of its normal emitting light color) depending on your current team.
for example: the light on an enemy turret or health station emits a green light for your team, telling you that it is “working” for your team now
.

.

devices that can be hacked
Heartbeat sensors, proximity Mines, healing stations, automated turrets.

.
more coming soon and quickly.
please send feedback thank you[/left]

Wait hacking the EV?
How would that work?

@TheOrangePhantome This is how it would work.

thanks for the insight. :smiley:
we all know the EV requires an attacking team merc to escort it.
.
when Tesla “hacks” the EV, she is burning out the other teams objective timer by reversing its direction when hacked.
the only way to disrupt this ability is for two Members of the attacking team to get into escorting range at the same time.

Thank you for the insight. i believe that just gave me another idea on how her ability should work…
was this helpful?
please reply :smile:

I thought about what you said, it sounds dumb that the ev can be hacked. Should she have another ability?

(Gatlinghawk) #12

Maybe a jacobs ladder. Or electric sheild.

If she has an E sheild. this is how i think it should work. If you like it ill post it
She has a spike she puts in the floor. Using Q. It takes a second to fully form the sheild.
Her e-sheild is like a bubble.the same radius size of a health station It can be walked through by any merc. But cannot be shot through. It lasts as long as a health station. But the spike only has 40hp. It takes explosives to get through the sheild. Same amount it takes to extinguish redeyes smoke.
