Title: Pyromaniac
Post by: Wilks on February 03, 2011, 07:59:20 pm
I post a little suggestion about the perk "Pyromaniac". On The Vault and the french wiki, Pyromaniac add only +5 damage with fire weapon (so just flamer) and I want to make a build for FIRE ! But this perk sux ! It would be very funny if we were able to take it several times and if it give more damages (+15-20) each time ?

If it's wrong, somebody know what is the bonus of Pyromaniac on 2238 ?

Some perks should be taken countless times, such as above mentioned pyromaniac. It would create interesting, fun characters that are certainly not overpowered.
Perks that I have in mind are : Pyromaniac, Bonus HtH damage, Earlier sequence, Faster healing, Healer, Swift learner, Educated, More critical, Dodger, Snake eater, Rad resistance and some lesser +skills perks.

A Pyro build would perhaps need some Throwing tagged for some ranged Molotov damage, since there won't be Incinerators or incediary missiles in 2238.(at least not now)

I'm actually kind of curious of its like the living anatomy perk where its +5 afterwards? If it was, might be fun if they switched molotov to fire so i can spam +10 dmg molotovs  ;D

Used search function, bump for incediary rockets. They shouldnt have knockdown, but more fire damage.

you can allready take pyro, you can take it twice and it gives +20 each time.

My main lumberjack alt got 2x pyromanics, afaik they give you just +20 minimum damage each time you shoot. (You can kill fire gecko with 2x pyromanic using any flamer and any type of flamer ammo, you'll deal always 20 or 40 damage, depends on amount of perks taken).
I think this perk should also decrease damage resistance by 10%(the second level could decrease it over 15 - 20%, which I would find usable, for such weapon needing close range to deal any damage).

Well I was going to tell Roachor to read rule #2 but as Horatio's idea doesn't really have anything to do with this I guess this is a useless post :)

Pyro is mostly ok, just give it +10 crit chance for level 1, 15 more for level 2.
Same for DR modification.

Maybe 1 AP less for fire weapons for level 2.

This on top of what is already there.

the thing is everyone wants it to be a good weapon just with low range. because of low range it should have high damage.
i think when people see a guy rushing them with a flamer, they should be scared :3, but its not like that atm  :(.

What about incendiary rounds and make the perk work for laser/plasma weapons?
Also a nice flamed swoard and gloves will work nicely.

The point is that this perk works only with 2 weapons: flamers and molotovs.
Maybe making it work with at least 1 weapon from any weapon class.

It was to enhance the neglected weapons.

molotovs are explosive damage, pyro has no effect

Perhaps add:

Dragon Shells (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon%27s_breath)!

Destroys shotgun when fired.
(Even if not in RL)


Remember to fire both barrels at once.

Changed blown-to pieces animation to die-in-a-fire animation. Yippie-kay-yay, if you want something implemented, do it yourself. *sigh*
Pm me if you want the mod.
