Pistoleer Archive

OK, first thing first. Pistoleer is broken, fix all those things first.

TH has asked for ideas from the community on what you see your role in the game as being. Here's one quick idea off the top of my head that seemed very appealing to me. Anyone who has seen the movie Equilibrium will know exactly what I'm talking about.

I would like to see a more acrobatic pistoleer. Tumbling flipping and generally just kicking the crap out of stuff in style. Here's how I propose to do this...

-Move the specials (assuming they all work well after the big fix) to different lines so that it's harder to dabble.

-Add an option to each special that alows you to do atumbling version of that special instead of the standard non-animation. For example: /stoppingshot would do the same thing as it currently does and/tstoppingshot would cause my character to do a backflip and shoot stopping shot.
+add a small dodge modifier (stackable with the regular +dodge) because it's harder to hit someone doing this.
+reduce the accuracy and/or damage modifier because it'd be harder to hit your target while doing these moves.

-Let these moves be linkable so you can fluidly combo up moves (perhaps increasing damage output slightly according to combo length).

-Add a Max combo modifier which increases the maximum number of tumbling moves you can link in a row.
+If done right, this could increase the value of mastering Pistoleer

-Put a delay on a combo so that there is a solid 5-10 second period in between uses.

-Throw in dual pistols.

/sigh if only

Thought I would clarify on why to have two options rather than just make them all the cool animated version. If they were only the animated version we couldn't kite or attack while chasing.
