Mech Buffs - Power Ups/Power Downs
Posted: Tue Aug 12, 2014 3:02 am
So, while i was getting my nails manicured today (while under a hair dryer) my gorgeous brain (encased in my even more gorgous head) came up with a SO delightful idea that I decided to share it with all you regular people:
I thought a great way to spice up the Mech Arena (besides having a Dress Shoe Gala) would be the creation of Buff Bots/ Buff Drones...what these lil guys do is appear horizontally and vertically and walk straight lines on and off the grid - as soon as one disappears, another one appears. (Im not sure how many should be on the grid at any one time) Each one of these little guys carries a different buff. I was thinking of some and these can include ( and PLEASE, if you like my wonderful idea and hair, add your ideas as well):
Armor Regen
100% Armor Repair (if you already have 100% armor, this one does nothing - it only works if you were damaged before running into the buff, not afterward)
10% Damage increase
25% Damage Increase
10% Defense increase
25% Defense Increase
Speed X 2
Speed X 4
Teleporter (teleports you to a random part of the arena - even if engaged in Combat)
Swap (Randomly picks any mech in the arena and Swaps positions - this CAN INCLUDE Mechs in combat)
Glue (Glues your mech to a spot for 2 or 3 turns - in combat, this reduces your Speed to 1)
Rexx Centerfold ( Your mech is distracted and does nothing - even in Combat - for 2 turns as it is mesmerized by a devilishly sexy poster of yours truly laying on a beach in golden thong)
If your Mech happens to run into one of these, you receive a buff that you hold onto it (or the duration of a timed buff like Rexx Centerfold or Glue) until you run into another one that could have the same or different buff
If two mechs are in Combat and a Buff Drone walks into that square, a random number is drawn to decide which Mech gets the buff
During Staff/Player Competitions, this can be spiced up by having ST-Specific and PL-Specific Buff Bots in the arena
A column can be added to Mech Overview as a Buff Status per each Mech
Awesome right? <Thumbs Up>
