Get a buff from your medc, BOOM, you are even terms with DDS regardin survinving Full body/quick head. If you argue its op cuz no need buffs, then gunboats have similar effect makeing you less dependant to medic for solly. Think it's overrecting just out right banning it without proper test, however I agree NC is not really proper place to run a test for it.

Um.. the other team can overheal the sniper with the shield, too. I think the basic argument is that you're at a disadvantage if their sniper uses it and you don't. So I think it shouldn't be allowed.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461905 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:41:35 +0200 Reply by LimputtaJa https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-2/?recent=461906#post=461903 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461903 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:37:11 +0200 Reply by Permzilla https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-2/?recent=461906#post=461901 Quoted from Limp.

I think people are over racting freking out over this one. I think its fine item. I mean only thing it has like real proper effect is sniper vs sniper. And this is not sniper vs sniper mge get good mode, this is highlander, there are 8 other classes too. You don't need to sniper to give up jarrate and go sniper dueling DDS sniper if enemy have on, you can focus it down with other classes, scout,spy, solly. Sure it might be pain in the ass for lower divs/teams if there are some "carry snipers" and people don't know what to do, but I'm sure it's all fine on higer divs at least, even if you could say sinpers woulbe better there too. Just gives sniper now two really considerable sceondarys insted of only jarrate.

Imagine you're sniping against another sniper who is using the new Danger Shield. You will lose unless you equip the Danger Shield yourself. And sniper vs sniper is a massive part of a sniper's role in highlander, I think you're underestimating the impact of it.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461901 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:25:09 +0200 Reply by Smyther https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-1/?recent=461906#post=461899 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461899 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:20:24 +0200 Reply by LimputtaJa https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-1/?recent=461906#post=461892 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461892 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:00:19 +0200 Reply by fanny_filth https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-1/?recent=461906#post=461770 Quoted from kindred

cool, now i can use the cozy camper

Word! The +25 hitpoints buff would make more sense on the cozy camper imo. Or just have the bullet resistance on the pissrifle, and keep the dangershield as it was(since it had it's uses before the update).]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461770 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 15:06:51 +0200 Reply by LimputtaJa https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-1/?recent=461906#post=461675 Quoted from ducky

[...] [...] I can't grasp the thought process behind wanting to promote loadout variety just to then add the new danger shield.

If you read the news blogs or what ever and look at the other items/otem sets, they wanted to remove the set bonuses becauss some sets apearently had items that werent all visible so you couldn't know if they were useing full sets, or something along thos lines, so they moved the set bonus/similar effect to specific weapon. Same is on all other sets pretty much, they moved set bonus effect to on 1 item, more or less.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461675 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:27:34 +0200 Reply by dnscodcs https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-1/?recent=461906#post=461664 Darwin's Danger shield Added: Bullet damage taken reduced by 15%

The Croc-o-Style Kit (set) Removed headshot immunity

I can't grasp the thought process behind wanting to promote loadout variety just to then add the new danger shield. It's not as annoying as the croc-kit to snipe against but it also takes up less loadout slots to guarentee a limited headshot immunity. Basically it has reached the point where if 2 equally skilled snipers battle each other it's either take the shield or loose the exchange. I could pretend to be really upset about this change but...I only fully charge bodyshot people with the machina anyways,so whatever.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=26676&post=461664 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 21:01:40 +0200 Reply by Snowdream https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-26676/page-1/?recent=461906#post=461651 Quoted from nahka
