Drone weapon

[vital spear]

The drone weapon costs medium energy and attained at a medium level. Shoot the drone weapon into the sky, and first the drone is in its folded form, and flies for a few seconds forward like a normal missile. Then it unfolds and starts flying around.

The Ai commands it to always remain in view of the player, however it also travels towards the nearest enemy. It has a small gun underneath it which will slowly chip away at enemies. If the player shoots a different enemy, the drone will change target and move towards the new enemy. The drone has the same health as a normal bot - so it can be one shotted if directly hit. While attacking, the drone will move around from left to right - just so that it isn’t an easy one shot target.

After missing a certain number of shots on a target (suggested : 5) the drone will get demotivated and will kamikazi into the player. This can again be dodged as there is a charge up time. If shot at while charging in it explodes dealing no damage

when it moves side to side it should move slowly so the drones don't just destroy and ruin the game for new players

[vital spear]

Of course, plus the movements will always be the same so it’s predictable

[prime garden]

That seems a little over the top

?

Sooo, a target practice which will slowly chip away your health. It’s a cool idea, and I like it, but i think it will be too hard for new players.

[summer mica]

Too op

[vital spear]

Any feedback on how this can be nerfed / improved on?

[neon jewel]

by not existing

[wheat coral]

Maybe if it misses five shots it gets demotivated and dunks?

[vital spear]

The drone needs to come out of the folded form to be able to attack. Otherwise it will just be a normal missile

[vital spear]

This is a great idea! Let me add this

[wheat coral]

Btw, I am assuming that if it hits the shield in the folded form then it changes teams?

[vital spear]

Yes lol that will be goofy but logical

[wheat coral]

Yeah

[summer mica]

The drone should take alot of hits to kill a player

[wheat coral]

Then it’s useless pretty much

Unless lots is more than five

[summer mica]

if it does too much damage then it'll be op

[wheat coral]

So, what is too much damage?

[vital spear]

It’s supposed to be a distraction / annoyance so it should deal a bit of damage ~ probably very low but at regular ticks

To OP

[vital spear]

Yes? What do you want to say to the original poster?

[neon jewel]

Op = overpowered

[vagrant tundra]

Could be, but make it insanely rare in crate drops, and cap it at 1-3 like with poisons and speed/insight perks
should help with that
