Title: Use poisoned ammo for needler
Post by: Lizard on March 07, 2011, 09:31:23 am

Since someone was too lazy to explain this fairly good suggestion, i'll write this down.

So, basically, a needler shoots needles. Why not dip them in concentrated floater or radscorpion poison (needs lots of scorpion tails or something from floater) and make a projectile that is able to kill your opponent, even if he just killed you?

Additional, this will give more worth to Antidote and teamwork (Oh fuck guys, i'm poisoned and gonna die, save my gear please, blargh...).

Surely, this mustn't be only poison damage, it also could increase the crippling chance, instead to deal a good chunk of damage in short time - insta- or guaranteed death would be overpowered for this weapon.

So, variant 1: it's a weapon, dealing a lot of damage with delay.
Variant 2: it's a crippling weapon.

What do you think?

Yup, I mentioned this in #2238 myself a while ago. When we finally get round to the poison system I want it to be the case.

@Solar: that's good news, thanks, Solar! ;D

@cannotspace: obviously, the subject, as self-descriptive it might be, isn't enough to be a stuff for serious topic.
Also, hubologists cannotspace, lacking AIIIIIIIR.

edit: Okay, sleep is an issue, i get it.

ye i admit my topic was sloppy, I had that idea for some days now, and decided to post when I was tired and going to bed, so instead of typing letters and stuff i decide other people could it it for me

Sounds great. slow damage over time. weaken strength, and lower dex, and maybe if you have the right kind of poison lower target perception, and intelligence?  0.0

and I assume in poison system you can apply poisons to knifes, and spears as well yes?

My suggestion focus mostly on healers but poison is also mentioned more than few times if I remember correctly.
