hence me adding (or whatever is it in the code) to my post =P

Did too ... was just in the nearly pre-historic times right after SL came out.
I've suggested something like that a few times in the past, but some people had some arguments why it might not work as intended.
Those arguments can be found in the same thread as the one the following suggestion is placed in. Well worth a read.
I like the name of this nano :D
Mekh, I saw your idea before and I thought it was pretty good. What I was suggesting was a debuffer that hit the core of the specials rather than just the weapon skills since what you are suggesting is similar to a trader drain.
:(Code:# cat "17.9 Preview" | grep doctor
0 result.
im not promising anything
I've been playing with the thought of something like AMS for docs, but which restricts the use offensive attacks while using it.
I'm not sure the engine can handle it tho. As it is currently I think that if you can't cast offensive nano's, you can't cast defensive ones on others as well.... Not sure at all about that.
So, idea is something like this... You meet a zerg coming against your team... You cast Doc AMS (DAMS).
Now you can't UBT, DoT or in any other way attack/debuff opponents, but you can heal yourself and your team.
DAMS give's you enough of a high reflect that opponents will have a hard time putting you down and will hurt them as well, so you can focus on healing your team.
Should you prefer to try and help kill your opponents then you dont use it, which allows you to attack and debuff them, but will also have you vulnerable to anything as usual.
The nano still do not work against the multitude of debuffs out there that works against docs... GTH, (E)NSD, drains, whatever...
It should not last long... maybe 12 seconds or so, which should be enough to make them think twice about calling you when they come zerging cause they don't know whether you have it running or not.
They can make a gamble and try calling you initially which will hurt them due to reflects from DAMS, or they can choose to go for another target.
Recharge 30 - 60 seconds maybe.... not sure, and haven't given much thought to duration/recharge really.
Offenses are shut down during recharge as well.
Anyway... Just an idea...Might spawn some other better ideas or whatever :)
added the "Anti-Zerg" nano to the list.
I have a better idea for anti-zerg nano, it should make the doc untabbable. Would also make the social tab more useful. Just change the outfit every couple of days, and you're alpha-proof:DQuote:

Well yeah, I'd be pretty happy with more offence, maybe an extra DD perk that caps 30% or smth like that. Starfall is really nice, but it's a pain to land/chain.Quote:
