An Idea for ADVs

[___________JagdTyger]

Heres something I never could understand, ADVs are supposed to be able to blend in out in the wilderness and be able to scout and spy. I know all players use the map to track other players, see a white dot in a pvp zone and you check it out to jump them. Now why not make it so that when a ADV is morped their blip on the map should turn red like any old monster mob out there, thus hiding them for scouting use. This would give advs a important role for the upcoming towers and mass pvp battle, scouts will be important, spotting scouts is not supposed to be easy by just looking at a map. All you ADVs out there gimme your thoughts on this.

Also I would like to suggest a 2he buff for advs like the 1he ones we already have.

Can I just say one thing???










You're a GENIOUS!!

[baffle]

woot!

Nice idea. This should be implemented!

[___________JagdTyger]

Oops I forgot to add piercing buffs up there with 2he, since there are a few 2he and piercing adv only weps out there.

Yeah, this is an excellent suggestion.

As an aside, does anyone know if a sneaking (i.e. invisible) player shows up on the map as a white dot? Clearly, he shouldn't show up at all to those who's perception is too low. That means that the map indicators would have to take the sneaking player's concealment rating and the observing player's perception into account.

[______________Atreyu]

Sounds good, just a question though, do you show up as a blip at all while sneaking?

[___________JagdTyger]

I dont think concealed players show up on the map when sneaking, I know Ive sat in 2ho and other areas with an agent hidden and couldnt see them on the map. Correct me if Im wrong.

My idea is to just make it so that advs while morphed can hide in a bunch of red dots on the map, not make them undetectable in the wilderness but make the ones they are scouting against or trying to hunt them have to pay more attention to their environment.

See a red dot zooming across the map on the ground and you will know it has to be a player moving around, see one just bouncing around like a mob and you will prolly overlook it unless you investigate.

MAN WHAT A GREAT IDEA....

I dont even play an adventure, but I believe that class should get this implemented into the game!

And a bow buff


Nice idea I like it

[______________Atreyu]

1. Bump

Optional
2. Add to this the ability to not agro things that the forms would not normally agro (IE a wolf won't agro a wolf, or most other mobs in its area) and forms have a real bonus aside from straight combat. If this makes them too powerful, then make a seperate line of nanos for the sneaky stuff (not leetform, but a full spread of them)

3. Make the all the birdies fly. Are the wings of our low birdforms cliped as part of the nano (IE we can't polymorph a functioning pair of wings)?

Bump for the MAP suggestions, not for the 2he buffs or piercing. That's enforcer territory. Adv have enough different stuff already to chose from. Surely Enforcers wouldn't want to be a pale adv clone with essence as the 'only' difference.

[___________JagdTyger]

Your a sabertooth, claws slash, teeth pierce :P

Advs had 1he buffs first, so its not really enforcer territory, the idea is that the 2he and pierce would not be as good as their and be like our current 1he/pistol line. By saying its enforcer territory is saying take away their new 1he buffs cause thats adv territory.

This was the best Idea in a long time! ... *BUMP*

Go post it on the ADV forum too .. =) .. perhaps get more reflections there =)

I have personaly never used my "forms", curently .. Reet, Leet and wolf... The stats they give is crap, not worth it. But this would bring a whole new dimention too the morphing... The only thing that makes me use some morphs is the runspeed, but now I have a Yhalm so thats out of question ....

I say BUMP again ..Agian ..and AGAIN!

[Camlaen]

I agree Give me a reason to morph

Snazziest Idea I've heard since my Team mission Epiphany. This could be even snazzier.
