Uses the rep tool asset for base animations

The beam is much brighter and larger, and has a 50 meter range (maybe a little shorter or further). It has a "clip" that steadily depletes as it's being used, and regenerates at about half the speed, maybe a little slower. There should be skills that lower and increase these values, respectively. Webifiers can target vehicles or dropsuits and work exactly as repair tools do now, but on enemies and from a greater distance, possibly with a somewhat longer lock on time.

Anything under the effect of the webifier has its top speed and acceleration reduced by the stated amounts, based on tier.

Feel free to offer up values

It should be noted that multiple webs do not stack, but will apply the strongest webifiers effect until it falls from the stack, then the next highest value is used, so on and so forth.

As an added note, a slight delay should be added after switching to a weapon, much like the cloak currently has, though maybe not quite as strong. This is to keep a player from quickly zapping a vehicle with a web, then immediately switching to AV while they're still trying to accelerate.

And this equipment would belong to the Amarr? In order to catch those speedy minjas?

I have said before that I would love to have one of these but... to pin down a few flying squirels!!! If max HIGHT is also afected... I'm in on the idea. Yes, I know they no longer FLY but still, limiting escape routes is already an interesting gameplay. See you around... boots on the ground!

Vulpes Dolosus Molon Labe. RUST415 3273	Posted - 2015.05.09 15:14:00 - [9] - Quote I like the idea of a "proxy mine" webifier more than a handheld. Mainly used for AV, set it up and anything that gets close triggers it (no warning beep since it's non-damaging). Creates an AoE that slows everything down (increasing in radius, duration, and/or effectiveness per tier). Lasts a max of about 5-7.5s. Existing visuals could be proxy/RE deployable and the effect would be a large, green nanohive (probably have a repair tool beam go from the middle to the affected target as well). Dust is there! I was real! Dear diary, Rattati senpai noticed me today~

My issue with anything that takes webifying out of your hands (REs and Grenades) is that it lets a single player set up a lethal trap almost instantly, drastically increasing their value vs vehicles. A handheld makes a player have to actually choose, slow down that vehicle, or kill it. It also makes them vulnerable, which is extremely important since webifying is LETHAL to vehicles. It promotes teamwork primarily. This thread is now a dance party ~ Dances Boldly ~ DUST STUFF

If you're around allies, it may be better to slow him down. The proposed equipment would work best at range, but could work up close in a pinch as well. Since it has a lock on time, it's not well suited to helping you when someone has the jump on you. This thread is now a dance party ~ Dances Boldly ~ DUST STUFF
Marcus Stormfire G.R.A.V.E The Ditanian Alliance 81	Posted - 2015.05.09 16:56:00 - [16] - Quote It is well known that light poles are the stasis webifiers of Dust =P My thoughts, Reduce the range to something much closer like 15m or shorter. last thing we need is to have a ton of newberries webbing a tank or dropship to a crawl at 50m. AV is tough enough when you can move. it would be suicidal for vehicles to deploy Possible stats (depending on variation) Basic: Range:10m Duration 3 sec Recharge 30sec Effect: 10% speed reduction PG 5 CPU 45 Slot: Light weapon Effective only vs vehicles. If you want a powerful tool I feel you should pay for it in your fitting. That way nobody webs you then immediately switches to a high damage weapon -Marcus -I don't always kill Mercs with a sidearm, But when I do I use militia.

Also, multiple webs don't stack their speed reduction, they simply ensure that the target stays webbed if one of them is killed. I don't like the idea of making the range too short because having to be right up next to a vehicle is not only suicide, it means that dropships are largely invulnerable to this. Dropships already will have the easiest time escaping since even while webbed, AB + straight up is still the fastest way to move out of range.

Marcus Stormfire G.R.A.V.E The Ditanian Alliance 111	Posted - 2015.07.09 20:56:00 - [20] - Quote Ahh I see, no stacking of webbing equipment for multiple people. Just ensures the tank stays webbed. If that happens then I can definately get behind a range increase. Perhaps add a stat that induces Chance Based Webification? Basic : 30% chance to web 5% of speed per 10 second cycle Advanced: 40% chance to web 10% of speed per 10 second cycle Prototype: 50% chance to web 15% of speed per 10 second cycle Skills affect chances. Someone brought up Stasis mines. Now that would be a pretty cool way to implement this idea. Tanks can still scan them down, shoot them, and it promotes tactical game play (catching that really fast madrugar that keeps running to his redline.) Stasis mines or handheld equipment would add some cool eye candy effects when one of the mines go off (Blue light strands perhaps?) -Marcus -I don't always kill Mercs with a sidearm, But when I do I use militia.

I feel like a lot more groundwork would exist for this within the repair tool data, and also, webifying is EXTREMELY valuable. A player should be vulnerable while doing it, hence the gigantic shiny beam saying HI I MAKE SLOW A grenade allows a skilled player to toss it into a group of players and then mop up even as it's exploding.

Further a grenade cannot be used on a dropship. Not without AV nade magnetism. A handheld keeps fatty forge gunners from casually locking down a tank and ripping it apart. A handheld follows the EVE standard of single-target lockdown and introduces a teamwork angle akin to the interceptor from EVE. One player locks a target down, the others focus fire and kill him. WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.
