Title: Merc Question
Post by: GavinGill on July 16, 2012, 01:51:39 AM
Is it possible to adjust a mercenary's attacking speed or the amount of time it takes for the merc to get up after it's been knocked down? Can it's jump be modified so that it works like the GM trans pack's moon-jump?

Some of the merc are outdated and useless compared to a few others. Rather than adding new OP merc like Xab and DH, I think we should upgrade some of the older ones to the point where they're on par with the likes of Mini Tank, Arsenal, Grounder, etc.

I also want to make a mod for Shuriken but I don't want to go through the trouble if the Merc is going to remain useless. :P

yess shuriken is sooooo cool
also improving the older mercs would add a bit of variety in the game imo

No. Don't remove op mercs. Upgrade the other ones.

Then wouldn't I have just asked Tok if he was able to do this, instead of coming here...?

BvB doesn't even work on Evo and it won't be fixed for a while. I'm able to play it here on B.Cheetah though and while I'm here, I'm obviously going to try to improve it - just like how Corr and I helped push for a revamp of the guild system. I, along with a handful of other BvB'ers, have been asking for the old merc to be balanced for years. Aeron, Shuriken, Echo Force, etc are useless with their current stats/specs when compared to the other merc, and it's been that way since Grounder, Sharps, etc came along.

We asked Acclaim to do the same thing, are your strange feelings telling you that had something to do with Evo as well?

Instead of changing the speeds and jumping heights (which would probably be complicated as ****), couldn't the older mercenaries have a drastic damage increase?  They seem to do the same damage as they did in Acclaim BOTS, but people now have 2x the HP.  

Edit for some random stats:

I just played a game in which Minitanks were hitting 300-500 and the Double-Blade merc was chaining 1,000+ x3.  That just isn't fair :3.
