New Turrets? (Originality FTW) So as all/most of you know, the developers really like taking a look at new ideas in the forums to make up something amazing. And therefore, I decided to make [a] thread(s) about some ideas. (I know there are many of Maf's threads for these, and I may get my thread declined quickly, but I want my ideas to be seen and found moderately easily. Thank you, and leave suggestions and opinions as a post) ViperMonster's "Reaper" - Now if you've watched Viper's6th release of "If I was admin," then you know what this beast looks like. I think that it should shoot similar to Vulcan; fully automatic, and I would say it'd be immediate, (unlike Vulcan) but would run out of ammo, (Like hammer, or alternatively, like Fire/Freeze maybe an Alteration?) but reload fairly quickly. It would do more damage than Vulcan, but less than Isida, and it's attack speed would be slightly less than Freeze. It would have a lot less KB, hence the compensator, and a good turn speed between Twins and Firebird. And obviously, a lower (Quite) range than Vulcan (I'd say lower than Smoky, but more than Ricochet). "Styx" (This is a WIP and sounds kinda stupid and OP) - This would be a crossbow, and would be slightly gravity affected like Magnum's ammunitions, and would be absolute garbage at aiming, as it turns horizontally, and is gravity affected. But would really make up it it's special effect: Life Steal (Yay, old Isida!) It would target like Striker, but lower range, then shoot a bolt with a metal rope between it and the user's tank. It do quite low damage (A ricochet M2-ish amount) but would heal the user 75% that amount. It's basic attack would shoot a, unroped, longer ranged bolt that does 45% of the special ability, and no lifesteal. It would have 5 bolts in a Hammer-like 'clip' and reloads in a similar speed to Hammer. The special ability, however, would use all five munitions. (I apologise for color issues. I can't fix it without re-writing everything.) "Axe" - This one could be really cool, as it has an impact effect, similar to Ricochet and Hammer, but more like Hammer. It would explode into 8 smaller pellets when it's projectile hits a wall and they would spread around and hit enemy tanks all around it, creating a psuedo-AOE effect. And you may ask "But wouldn't those pellets just hit the wall it hits and disappear?" And I have an answer! The pellets would bounce once like Hammer's pellets. The thing about this effect, though, is that it's original projectile is really weak. It shoots at half the speed of Ricochet, and does half the damage... But it's pellets are deadly, as each of them do 80% of the damage of the initial projectile. "Ragnarok" - This is my favorite, personally. It would shoot slightly similar to rail, but opposite! It would be initially atno charge, and you would hold space for a while and charge the bar to full, and once it's at full, you must let go of space and press it again whenever you like to release a giant ball of death... Perhaps even... God killing? Very similar to shaft, but you basically recharge a projectile 'till it's full, then you can immediately fire whenever you like. It would be have way less range than shaft, maybe around Smoky range. It's projectile would do way more damage than Magnum's, but would take a full 7 seconds to charge completely, and the said [very large] projectile would move at 75-80% the speed of Ricochet's projectile. It would have no AOE, to let it do plenty of damage alone anyways. ViperMonster's "Electro" - I think it should be called "Tesla" or "Nikola" or something, but all that aside, it would be another "Cone Weapon" like Freeze or Firebird. Turn speed would be nerfed a lot, but it would do quite a bit of damage per second (Around the damage of Vulcan, but slightly less.) It would do damage at fast as Vulcan, and would have an effect akin to both Freeze and Firebird. It would make the tanks go FASTER (half the effect of Nitro at 100%) and would do lots of damage for a short time (Let's say 2 HP 7 times a second for 5 seconds at 100%.) But would have one major downside... It's ammunition max... It would have slightly less than Firebird with the napalm alteration, so it would be hard to get things to 100%. But again... An upside to things. It would reload fairly quickly. PS. It's afterburn effect would never "Die Down" like Firebird or Freeze until it's over completely over. "Scythe" - It may be called "Curse" instead. This is another "Support" turret, like Isida or Styx, as it has a unique "Weakness" effect for 5 seconds. It would make the enemy tank do half damage for the duration, but to make up for that, it isn't that strong in the first place. It has a slow, long ranged, and weak attack. It does around the damage of Smoky, has the range of Vulcan, and has the speed of Arcade Shaft. It would have a smoky-like reload, and a slower turn speed than Vulcan.... If you guys enjoyed these suggestions or think some of these are cool, tell me what you think about them independently in your own post. You may also share your own tweaks and suggestions.
