So I was trying to think of a new power set that could be done that also has a completely different play style than other power sets.
I came up with a combat engineer type thing, where the focus of the power set is building defenses. So this actually sounded kinda dumb but I figured maybe someone on the forums could help flesh out the idea in a way I could not think of.
So heres the idea, while not completely different because its is similar to how people play /devices.
Combat engineer:
secondary buff set
Specializes in the creation of defensive stations that buff teammates and adds extra fire power on the battlefield.
(these are some powers I thought up and are not in order you would receive them)
1.Ammo Box- provides a recharge buff to all allies within range. Interacting with it allows players to choose a temporary (about 10 sec) change to secondary elements (ex. Has a fire or ice secondary effect etc)
2.Stasis Pod- and emergency pod that once interacted with will hold a player inside and regenerate their health while making them invulnerable. (basically like the hibernate power)
3.Defense Turret- Drops a turret that will attack all enemies in range with a cone attack. Deals light damage on its own but if interacted with by a player, the player can choose targets and deal heavy cone damage.
4.Micro Mine Field throws out multiple small mines that explode dealing light AoE damage, slows the enemies, and reduces enemy recharge. These will float if used in the air.
5.Command and Control Station- renders the user immobile while in use. Provides a buff to all combat engineer buffs within range. (ex the ammo box will buff recharge more, the turret deals more dmg) the user also gains additional defense and allies gain defense and to-hit buff.
6.Barb Wire- targeted area denial kill, place row of barbwire at targeted area to knock back enemies and deal damage.
7.Sandbags- Place a row of sandbags that provide extra defense to everyone in a cone area behind them. (They may stack depending on the amount of defense they granted)
so thats what i came up with as a set the provides many interactions between players and abilities. The ability to set up a mini assault base seemed like a cool concept. Dose any one think this wold work as a power set?
