Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): As well as Ravager having passive immunity to fire damage, the Ravager should be buffed by being coated in flames, whether this should only be a small buff, but should be noticeable. This is a very open suggestion that I doubt will be accepted, but if it is, will make the Ravager role a bit more interesting.
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): On the side of Xenos, the Ravager should be much more confident when it comes to fighting marines with flamers or ones that abuse flame grenades, heaven forbid a GL Spec runs into your hive equipped with nothing but flame grenades and begins burning everything in sight. Other aliens backing up the Ravager will also be less frightened by this kind of attack. On the side of Humans, you'll be more inclined to be strategic with your plans of "Burn all the weeds, all the walls, all the aliens", Plus if that Flamer-Specialist class ever gets implemented it'll have something to really worry about. (Still hoping it is implemented)
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): This would probably work like the pheromones aliens have, I am unsure of whether the buff should be to the Ravager's speed, damage or durability, but the idea of burning an alien only for it to get ANGRIER seems rather immersive, especially considering it's already immune to fire and that doesn't really scare a lot of people. I'd lean towards a small buff to all three of the previously mentioned factor.
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Unsure of how the coding would work, but it would be similar to pheromones or if combat drugs could somehow be implemented for aliens.

ravagers are immune to fires and they get a free charge when on fire, they don't need more.

Re: Buff To Ravager's Flame Immunity

Pretty much this, from what I can see ravagers are fine as they are with how they work with flames.Egorkor wrote:ravagers are immune to fires and they get a free charge when on fire, they don't need more.

Re: Buff To Ravager's Flame Immunity
Ravagers are pretty buffed on flames right now. Probably doesn't need more.

Re: Buff To Ravager's Flame Immunity
I don't mind if people want to keep it the same, I was just discussing it the other day with some players and a dev said "Well you have a suggestions board", so I put it up to see if anybody else wanted dat immershun. Thanks for the opinions though, I don't know a whole lot about the Xenos.
