Hiya! I want to give my opinions on a new arm slot type quipment. Really I want a "Shield" attached to my arm slot. Maybe it can give resistance or maybe % or flat HP.

As second, I want you to think about "Damage over Time" type of weapons. Aren't they funny? Why not adding 2-3 of them to see community approval? Hmm, furthermore, why only DoT? Lets add "Heat over Time" and "Energy loss over Time"?

DoT-> An attack that makes continious explosions for 2 turns
HoT-> An attack that burns target and it heats it up over 2-3 turns. Maybe minor damage too.
EloT-> An attack that disturbs mech's energy system and makes it lose some energy regen for 2-3 turns.

(I would recommend them to be un-stackable and short duration or people will abuse it ^^ )

Happy hunting!

it seems this idea was so lame that no one gave a... reply nm.
(it is my way to say "bump!")

I don't think your idea is lame,in fact,I think you may be on to something here,especially with the shield stuff.

add the poll thing next time


yes for shield

Damage over time seems cool I like that idea

I actually really like your ideas and think that they could add a whole new level of depth to the game, huge yes from me!

wow. I was away for weeks and checked the forum just now.
You seem to like my idea and even "poll" it and it made my super happy
thanks & Happy Hunting!

The drones are already a sort of damage over time attack (you use them once, and each round more damage is done).

What advantage would DoT weapons have over normal weapons?
If I had a weapon that does x damage over one turn, why would I choose a weapon that does damage over 2 turns?

And as matches are usually short (only several turns), long duration weapons loose their efficiency.

I don't like the idea, but it has potential, so I vote tweak

I'm lv 25 now, my battles are lasting 7-12 turns according to my experience. Meaning it is enemy's turn 3-6 times so an effect that lasts 2-3 can inflict its max. At least, even if you won't use a DoT weapon, I want to...
