We need an augment like that !


(Freezer_Boss) #1

(First off, i dunno if this is at the right place but i guess i’ll have more answers/arguments on this.)
I played quite a lot today, and i found that one augment/perk would be hella useful:

“Death Wish:
Throws the ability you were activating while killed.”

I think this would be mostly useful on fragger, fletcher, stoker and arty but why not on other mercs ?
Post your taughts on this !
(Constructive comments much appreciated)

That’s basically nader’s martydom but in an even stronger form.
I’m a bit mixed with that. But i’m in the “no” side here.

I know that feature already drops his made if he’s in the middle of tossing it and gets downed. Killed someone yesterday in execution that way. Arty wouldn’t make sense since he pinpoints the strike zone.


(Freezer_Boss) #4

Yeah, but for arty you can be killed while targetting, and with this it would complete the task if you get killed, same goes for fragger

Doesn’t this already happen? I was cooking a nade as fragger and died. Nade fell at my feet and blew up. I think stoker does the same thing if you keep it held and ready to release.

I disagree with other mercs though. Arty is specifically a hold to use ability.

Correct me if I am wrong.

EDIT: It just sounds like a bad idea. What is the point of rushing to kill them before it goes off or gets thrown if it happens anyways.

Its annoying enough when you try to throw molotovs get killed and it just goes off wasting it.


(blufflord) #7

id have the exact opposite
my frag grenade or molotove doesnt go off and gib/ burn my dead body. Instead it magically finds a way back into my backpack, and i dont get the cool down.
Obviously I still wouldnt use it, cause its my fault for that happening, but for arguments sake, thats what i would have

Best thing is killing a fragger and watching them finish themselves with the grenade that was meant for you. saves me a bullet :smiley:

It wouldn’t be useful as it is on Fletcher. You throw the bomb, good, but how do you detonate it ? However the basic idea isn’t that bad. It’s just that Fletcher would need a slightly different version instead : trigger all stickies on death.

I have seen my Skyhammer finish his airstrike throw animation so many times, and still manage to throw a single thing. It didn’t used to be like that when I started playing 400-500 hours ago. But it is now… :confused:

It drops like a martyrdom if you already have the nade cooked and waiting. If he’s still pulling the pin or any part of the animation is still going on, it doesn’t do it.

Edit: I’m on the no fence for this one. Having a Skyhammer martyrdom seems a little ridiculous to me.
