Open Mangohydra opened this issue 11 months ago • 19 comments

About the PR

Syndicate agents can now purchase a cyborg module that gives emagged borgs a suicide bombing button only for 4 tc (emag not included)

Why

this was entirely for shits and giggles, and later people actually liked it so i turned it into an actual PR The module includes a single explosive timed for 4.5 seconds, it will gib (you and) explosive resistant targets granted you are right next to them, its only one use so use it wisely.

emag to emag Borg = 8 TC suicide module = 8 TC

Unless the Borg (another player you have to rely on) is a aim-God and they gib your target, you're potentially spending 80% of your TC to crit your target and alert the whole station.

TLDR: Is this too expensive?

It can be even underpriced! explosion power is great and borg have most of the time more access then everyone and good speed, no slowdown. It could be OP, but totally not too expensive - its almost 100% kill it feels so far - we need more game testing before re-evaluating price.

This definitely is too expensive considering that the borg can rat you out afterwards.

get emaged blow up target laws are gone rat out owner to not get wiped as posi/brain removed as mmi

There are better options for gibbing targets that cost way less.

baseball bat 0 tc suxbox 2 tc 2 fish 4 tc minibomb 4 tc i think emag recycler 8 tc and it cant have skill issue

deltanedas avatar Mar 05 '24 07:03 deltanedas

C4 - 2tc Remote signaller - 0tc Minibomb - 4tc Survival box - 0tc

Those combined are a fun way to remotly gib your target and it only costs 6 TC!

Borg have special access and can follow target. Thrown object can meet obstructions or you can just miss... and i think minibomb area is much smaller. I have to also remind that there won't be any steel proof that you are part of explosion business. If there is A LOT of cases when borg brain will rat you out - then we will fix it by assploding brain with borg. Zero evidence, you are clean to go home... you can orchestrate explosion on other side of station while sitting and drinking on the beach.

Exploding the brain of the borg is bad. Forced round removal where the only way to not get round removed is to break your laws is a bad game mechanic.
