numbers are just a sample, im sure zero can give me better numbers to balance compared to other races, i'm just suggesting the skills.

[CYBER]

this was originally written by blind gamer on another thread, and the other by superman, thought i would group them here for discussion

Immortal (taken from SC2)

5 levels
Spawn with pump shotgun and deagle (race limited to these and nades)

Hardened shield: Your shield protects you. 20-60% chance to reduce the damage of incoming attacks to a maximum of 70-30 damage
Pushback: The force of your attacks cause the opponent to loose their balance. 10-40% chance of shaking your opponents screen
Regeneration: Regenerate your shield. Regain 2 hp every 5-1 seconds
Hand cannon: Payback time. All damage is doubled for 3-10 seconds

In starcraft, the immortal is the tank of your army. He leads, and soaks up any meaningful damage from the enemy. He is however vulnerable to fast firing units like the marine, because the hardened shield only limits the maximum damage in one hit. This translates over to WCS in that the hardened shield will do very little to submachines etc. The immortal also deals massive damage to armoured units but does relatively poorly vs unarmoured. But its kind of hard to translate that into WCS, thus the ultimate. It could be immortality, but then I think it would be too like shadow hunter, what with the regen as well. The shotgun seems to be the most logical gun to give it, since the immortal does slow but powerful hits

In WCS, this race is would basically be for rushing in head first, dealing damage with the shotgun, then getting out and regening. The immortal leads. In terms of items to restrict, I think the helm might be an option, because of the hardened shield ability. Other items, I dont know, Ill let you decide

Ok, so I posted inside the WCS Races section an idea for a new race, not cause I think im special or anything but because we got one superhero already, why not another? And because I think im special....lol...jk Ok, so here's my idea.

Class: Superman
Specs:
1. Speed (run/fly speed increased)
2. Strength (Extra Damage)
3. Armor (Can't be bullet proof so how about life and armor instead, increase value by 10 points per lvl, 8 - 10 lvls.)
4. Lasers (instead of the ability to knife, he shoots lasers in front of him that does damage = to that of a knife or starting pistol)
5. Fly/Teleport (Seeings how superman is faster than a speeding bullet and no one can see him with their eyes, I would recommend Teleportation. Flying wouldn't be bad either except, flying sucks on wcs servers.)

Level to obtain: 500+ range due to its extremely helpfull bonus's

Objects you can buy to help/damage class:
Kryptonite bullets (increase damage on superman by a lot. )
X-Ray goggles (Superman has the ability to see through objects, though giving someone walls would be EPIC, it would also be OP. But, if you were willing to spend 16,000 on a pair and be left with no weapons. Then thats not a bad idea.

I would like your idea's and opinions. Again, I am being serious about the class and about it NOT being because im special. I think it would be really cool to have a superman class. So please lets keep this relevant. Thank you.

Cloak of Shadows


This was one of my favorite class on another warcraft server that I used to play in. I'm not really sure about the exact stats, so I just came up with the numbers on my own lol.

[CYBER]

The numbers shown are a sample MAXED RACE values. i.e the values increase or decrease to balance, im only suggesting the skills.

Race Name: Terminator
Number of Levels: 5
Weapon: Spawns with Pump Shotty

Core Upgrade: 70% chance of Spawning with 175 health and armor and 150% speed

Protect Connor: Every 30 seconds, nearby teammates (max 60 ft) will get a 5 second protection shield from GUN damage only.

I'll be back!:
Activate +ability to jump 10 seconds into the future.
(Player teleports to where he aims and becomes invisible, frozen in place and cannot attack)
and reappears after 10 secs
( max 5 warps = number of terminator movies :P)

System Reboot: Activate with +ability1 to become frozen in place, unable to attack for at least 10 seconds: Resets HP, Armor and Warps back to 40-75% of spawn value.

Ultimate:
Hasta la vista, baby: Cuts Health in half and inflicts wave blast of 80 ft radius knocking back enemies in range and inflicting 80 damage each.
(sounds op, but with cutting hp in half u're most likely dead soon lol)

(cooldown: 30 seconds)
(Cooldown at start of round: 30 seconds)
(Required Level: 150)



if numbers seem over powered i can fix them, its just a sample.

i have a few race ideas but before i post them i thought id ask abnout what is even possible in WCS via textures and effects.

some ideas for races are holograms (for a master cheif race), color change effect (like when hit player sees strobe) instead of like a black screen it would be a fast color change like a strobe light. is it possible to add effects like water ? (for a trident and kraken race)

player skins? like when ultimate is activated player skin changes for a brief second then reverts back to normal skin (for maybe mythical god races i.e. Zues)

how bout a counter race for eva, called ketulu (or how ever you spell it lol)

i just feel like most of our imaginations are limited to what we actually know is possible for WCS. if nore then what we understand is possible tis could get very interesting.

[acolyte_to_jippity]

cuthulu

and ironically, cuthulu is VERY similar to the Angels (the beings the EVA were made to kill) so EVA should completely destroy cuthulu

I'll be back!:
Activate +ability to jump 10 seconds into the future.
(Player teleports to where he aims and becomes invisible, invulnerable but frozen in place and cannot attack) and reappears after 10 secs
( max 5 warps = number of terminator movies :P)

System Reboot: Activate with +ability1 to become frozen in place, unable to attack for at least 15 seconds: Resets HP, Armor and Warps back to spawn value.

These two are really good ideas for any future race but I would change one thing about both.

I'll be back:
Get rid of the invulnerability and this is a bad ass ability

System Reboot:
Instead of resetting spawn values, reset to 50-75% of spawn value and this is a bad ass ability as well.

i fully agree with scribbles here on those two skills except for the second

15 seconds seems like an awfuly long time for someone who might need to do the objective. what if the time was a standerd rate of per-say 5 seconds and each skill point increaded how much health armor you restored up to max including the spawn values as scribbles suggested

I would agree with that.
