Extinguisher Buff

<< < (2/8) > >>

BlackenedPies:
I think that chem should remain superior to the extinguisher but with more skill required.

Using during cooldowns could be a fix, but I foresee problems. It may be confusing for players who aren't used to using a tool on cooldown and tanking would involve spamming.

Spamming is a reason why I don't like removing cooldown altogether. 1 second cooldown with moderate immunity (4-6 sec) sounds balanced to me.

I could not agree more

Caprontos:
Not entirely serious about this reply but...

Just make fire extinguisher a default tool everyone has (like normal ammo).. and remove its fire immunity..

Yay fire extinguisher is now useful... and fire is even easier to handle..

BlackenedPies:
To clarify my position:

No cooldown or use during cooldowns could be confusing and involve spamming.

I think added immunity is the best solution with 5 being on the low side and 10 on the high side.

eh... not a bad suggestion, but ... that'd increase my tool belt to spyglass-extinguisher-spanner-mallet-buff. I don't like pressing '5' in games if I can help it. I almost never (except back in Diablo II) bind things '6'+.


I'm with 'let use extinguisher during cool downs'. So mallet-extinguisher can fight fire almost as well as veteran engineers.
