Revert Ravager nerf

Post by golfer45 » 12 May 2016, 14:24

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Revert the ravager nerf that results in ravages being unable to hit what body part they are aiming at.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Ravager becomes almost as good as crusher again.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Slashing hits the intended target

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):

This is kinda silly, seeing as this was already semi in place with every caste already. I know the feet slashing was getting a bit much, but that was averted by the previous finding that boots were offering 6! times less protection than they should. I've seen alot less severed feets since then.

Or maybe make it so you always hit the body target you are aiming at when using charge, but not when using normal slash.

-1. Random targeting is valid lore-wise and game-wise, and was discussed for a long time.

-1 Being able to slash off feet in one or two hits while the marine can do nothing leaving them with heading back to the Sulaco for surgery is kinda the only thing it's used for.

-1. This was a great change, imo. Ravagers slashing feet, arms, legs, and hands off an fucking off into the darkness was getting old and fast. They're giant aliens with giant claws and tiny brains(yes the warrior caste is meant to be dumb), they shouldn't be able to carefully chop a foot off. Even with the boot defense buff.

-1, I played ravager and I must say, it changed little in terms of me killing marines just as easily as before.
