Title: Give a sneak bonus when walking
Post by: OhaiShai on November 10, 2011, 02:13:40 am
Then I won't have to constantly pick the silent running perk.

Also give us awareness so we don't need to pick it, and x2 lifegivers from beginning, so we'll have more perks to choose!

Done. btw you pick up awareness for characters in 2238 ? Noob ;D only if merc leader or slaver.

About suggestion why not? It will not make silent running a bad perk yet it is some " utility "

Not only for merc leaders, for trolls too, to know what weapon to drop and whom to kill with piercing kick in the eyes!

About suggestion, why not to make all perks gained at 1st level, so
I won't have to constantly pick
them.

Aahaha! I'm sure silent running would still have it's place, and the bonus should only be small.

I would just like to see sneakers walking more thats all. Besides, running isn't exactly the most stealthy way to move.

Also, it gives non sneakers the chance to run up behind a sneak walker, letting them spot the sneaker before they get spotted themselves. I think that would give nice little angle on the whole stealth/PvP stuff.

BTW the CB ghost perk sounds really good.

Makes sense , but then again silent running is a perk that gives you the feature that running no longer factors into successful sneak attempt.

So maybe you should try to convince someone to change the perk itself , that the walking bonus applies with " silent running ".

Well, its sort of there.

Running causes you to lose 60% of your sneak, unless you have silent running. If you don't want to waste the perk and you are willing to walk then you can still run without breaking sneak and just walk when you want to have max sneak.

Love this!! I'll ditch silent running in that case, and compensate with high AC.

Then fingers crossed, I won't end up getting shot to shit after being seen.

Ah, but then you'll get hit by another change. AC only works when you run (and is generally higher all round) ;)

I am sure Turnbased users will find that change delicious.

I don't see why not, it works in Turn Based too.

You should have said it in cbt changelog, I wouldn't have wasted perks for AC for my snipers!

I'd forgotten to mention it to Atom before the cbt began.

Yes izual, really (!)

Having high ac and kiting with a sniper won't work. High AC on a close range guy who needs to run into distance will.
