Cyborg Self Destruct - No Hospital?


Diggis

 

Posted

Hi all. I've seen several players in the game use the Cyborg pack self-destruct, and once they 'splode, they reappear in the same spot almost instantaneously. So my question is this - in the power description, it says you are taken to the hospital, but this appears to not be true. Do you just faceplant and can rez instead of hosping it? If not, how are these players doing this?

Thank you.

Yup, it works pretty much like any death, except you can't be rezzed by another player and you can't be given insps either. (although I have been rezzed by other players on occasion I've not been able to on my empath so not sure why that is.

Self Destruct makes you untargetable, so targeted rezzes won't work. Dark Miasma/Howling Twilight, however, will work since it's an aoe and doesn't require you to target the body.

Ahhh, maybe that was it, thanks for that, it was really bugging me.

You can, in fact, give them inspirations. While you can't directly target them, you can place the inspiration on their name in the team bar or select them under 'give inspiration to so-and-so'.

Giving of inspirations: Possible
Enabling: Human speech function

Dropping inspirations on the players name in the team tab works the same as dropping an insp on them. So that is possible, as is the Howling Twilight/Self Rez mentioned above.

Disabling: Human speech function
Self Destruct: Useful
Self Rezzing: Good fun
Expression: Nod-nod

Edition: Beaten to: the post.
Exclamation: Damnit!

Also, any self res will work, like Stygian Return or RotP.

Actually. me and my friend on our Duo Empaths rez each other after self-destructing fine. Once you click on the name in the window you have about a half-second you ARE targeting the person. If you click and press the rez quick enough, you can bring them back, even though they are gone.

Hint: I don't put Vengeance on auto just because I'm crazy. Rez on auto should work similarly.
