#Taxidermist Rebalancing and Changes

The Taxidermist Taxidermist’s power has been a controversial topic since the update dropped. And while I don’t think he’s as overpowered as everyone is claiming him to be, I think he definitely could do with a few tweaks.

I’d remove the stun from his rifle shots after they travel a certain distance. Right now, Otto can basically force confrontations by shooting shots and stunning explorers from a long distance, which ends up almost negating his weakness of being a close-range class.

Another change I would make is limiting the number of portable sonar uses (specifically right click while holding the portable sonar) to one per kid caught. The ability to view the location of everyone on the map from anyplace is definitely a powerful one, so limiting the number of uses would balance it out a bit.

And lastly, the ability to hold down R to reload multiple rifle shots. Having to click the R key multiple times to fully reload his rifle can feel clunky at times, so being able to hold down the R to loop the reload would be a nice QOL change.

I very disagree with the sonar change only because you would only be able to use it 4 - 5 times a match with only 5 kids to catch

#

And also the sonar doesn't see them through walls

#

It only highlights doors gates lights etc

#

At least when I used it it did not highlight players

Oh?

#

haven't used it much

#

but it can see players

#

and there is a cooldown for when you activate seeing players

Well instead of making the sonar be only usable 4 times a match (which is very bad imo) just make it so it doesn't highlight kids

#

Only the normal sonar will

Just remove seeing players

I’m not referring to its function to close gates n whatnot, I’m talking specifically about its ability to highlight every kid in the map

Oooh

#

I'm sorry I misunderstood

Well then yes, I agree, but I'd clarify this in your post
