Megawatt's stupid power set/pool suggetsions

[Megawatt]

Because i often get stupid ideas for power sets and i've annoyed the channel i'm in FAR too often with them i figured i'd post them here. as i said in the mastermind thread i am not so good with numbers mostly concepts.

 

First up: Heavy Sniper Rifle

Tier 1: Snap Shot: Standard Attack

Tier 2: Aimed Shot: slightly better damage - maybe a minor debuff of some sort

Tier 3: Leg Shot: Slow or stun or even hold

Tier 4: Sniper Shot: Sniper Shot

Tier 5: Swap Mag

          Armor Pierceing: -Defense

          High-Explosive: limited AOE

          Gel Rounds: Stun

Tier 6: Air-burst Round

Tier 7: Paint the Target: Basically Aim

Tier 8: Anti-Material: lower damage, LARGE -Def

Tier 9: One Shot, One Kill: Massive damage, long recharge single target. It's like a better snipe

 

Second: SMG

Tier 1: Short Burst: Standard Attack

Tier 2: Medium Burst: Slightly better damage, maybe a bit of fear

Tier 3: Hot Foot: Slow as the character fires at an enemies feet

Tier 4: Shred 'em: large -Def

Tier 5: Spray and Pray: AoE Damage, basically emptying the Magazine

Tier 6: HEADS DOWN!: same animation as spray and Pray, this works as a ranged stun or fear as the character empties the magazine to pin enemies in place

Tier 7: Controled bursts: Basically Aim

Tier 8: Chicago Type Writer: Cone Damage, likely quite light

Tier 9: Thunder of Guns: Large Area attack -Def and heavy damage (Tier 9's are supposed to be insane right ?)

 

Third: Chakram Assault, because why do only the circle have them ?

Tier 1: Ring Toss: Ranged Chakram Throw

Tier 2: Chakram Slash: Melee Chakram Shlash

Tier 3: Bounceing Ring: a chain shot type effect, throw it at one enemy and it bounces to another and so on

Tier 4: Spining Slash: Melee Slash in a cone

Tier 5: Razor's Edge: add a Bleed Effect for a short time

Tier 6: Tendon Rip: Immobilize the enemy and apply a minor bleed Dot

Tier 7: Posioned Throw: PBAoe, Foe - Regen and -Rec, self +Regen and +Rec

Tier 8: Long Throw: a snipe with a chakram

Tier 9: Razor Storm: PBAoe, decent damage - spin in a circle throwing out a bunch of Chakram

 

Forth: Grenade Launcher Support, you know the PPD Equalizers ? you know how we dont really have any options for 'natural' control ?

Tier 1: Web Grenade: Foe Immobilize, -Fly, - Recharge

Tier 2: Glue Grenade: Area Effect, Slow, -Recharge

Tier 3: Foam Grenade: Moderate Dot (Crushing), Hold, -recharge, -speed

Tier 4: Flash Grenade: Enemy blind, -acc

Tier 5: Wide Area Foam Grenade: same effects the foam grenade but more targets

Tier 6: Acid Grenade: Dot, Stun

Tier 7: Anti-friction grenade: works like ice slick

Tier 8: Sonic Grenade: foe -resistance (All)

Tier 9: Gun Drone: summon a small hovering gun drone

 

Grenade Launcher Assault:

Tier 1: Launcher butt: pretty easy, thump some one over the head with your grenade launcher

Tier 2: Explosive Grenade: small AOE

Tier 3: Flechette: Cone attack

Tier 4: Ricochette Round: a bounceing impact grenade

Tier 5: Venom Rounds: add Posion to attacks

Tier 6: Danger Close: PBAoe attack

Tier 7: No Man's Land: Targeted AOE, works like caltrops but its miniature mines or shrapnel or similar

Tier 8: Slug Round: sniper shot - assault sets seem to have snipes

Tier 9: Dragon's Breath: AOE, major damage, minor Fire DOT

 

Power Armor offense: an An arsenal of weapons built into your fancy armor (i dont know how possible any of this set is)

Tier 1: Burst fire:  wrist mounted energy blasters, micro gauss guns - what ever it is it fires fast

Tier 2: Double Burst: same as burst with both arms, probably does a knockback too

Tier 3: Micro Missile: Foe targeted AOE, Minor Dot maybe

Tier 4: Shock Net: Hold

Tier 5: Targeting Sensor: Aim

Tier 6: Railgun: Snipe, Shoulder mounted heavy weapon ala a BoomGun

Tier 7: Sonic Stunner: Cone stun

Tier 8: Strike Drone: Deploy a small drone to provide close support and targeting asistance

Tier 9: Alpha Strike: PBAoe, open fire with every weapon in your arsenal at every enemy around you

 

That's all i really have for now, I will probably end up adding more later on. Kind of pulled some of the -fly and other similar things off the wiki from similar powers (a lot of the GL Support powers for instance)

I like them!

 

I made a few suggestions similar to these over in my other thread, check out Throwing Blades, and the assorted gun-themed powersets I posted recently!

Don't forget Whip Control and/or Assault!  That'd be nice and Natural-friendly (as long as they don't use the Corruption Whip's flaming decals).

It's a shame that the Traps Set wasn't named something like "Equipment" or "Artifice" . . . 'cause a Traps Control Set would be absolutely awesome!  What other name could we give such a Set?

Contraptions maybe?

Always willing to +1 Power Armor Blast/Assault/Etc.  Criminal that CO gets to have cool Power Armor attacks while CoH doesn't.

if i could pick any one of my own suggestions though i'd probably select Heavy Sniper since it would likely require less work (the model exists in use by PPD Operatives and you could use the standard Sniper rifle, the Redding, maybe the Nem Rifles)

[Alchemystic]

I think a 'Power Armor' thing could be worked with, there's plenty of Robotic/Exo-Rig style attacks in game.

i just hope if it is that it works like other weapon sets rather then like crab spider....i wouldnt want a permanent weapons pack (though i would LOVE geting a weapon pack costume piece.....)

perhaps it would work like a weapon of sorts, and just add props to your character when 'drawn'

[Megawatt]

Little bit of an update from me: i'd also love like alternate versions of existing MM sets, like say beast summoning but with a 'hunting rifle' instead of BEEEEEEEES or what ever. Mostly so you could play a natural version of it that isnt some kind of weird person that chucks birds at people.
