Strain Ideas/Suggestions

[TheDonkified]

can someone compile this into an organized document. Also, if you feel passionate about your proposed mutator, pose EACH mutator as a separate gitlab. Do not put them all in one gitlab, it's annoying to have to sift through each mutator when only a handful might be implemented.

Once I have some free time I'll probably make a spreadsheet with the strains

Anyways here's my idea for a boiler strain

boiler:

- Resin Bomber : Lose the ability to spit any kind of acid (Gas and spray acid but still keep the strong acid to melt walls) in exchange for a short range spit that create a small explosion and launch medium resin shards in all direction which can impale marines, your bombard is replaced with a resin bomb which takes more time to fire but launch a devastating pressurised projectile that create a sizeable explosion on impact and launch a myriad of resin shards, the boiler also loses his glow and get a moderate amount of armor but become sligthly slower.


Upgrades focus on making the resin bomb bigger and more destructive while also making the shards more dangerous, using your explosive spit on a resin hole fill it up with the pressurised resin which roughly translate to an alien fragmentation mine

do strain suggestions need to be put up in gitlab to have a chance of being ingame?

Warrior: "Spry" - Lose all abilities (excluding rest + devour). Increase in all base stats. Sprite position becomes locked on 4 legs.

Someone make a full document of all the strain suggestions so far and we could probably start copy-pasting them into the gitlab.

I might do that tonight masked...

[themaskedman2]

Okay good less work for me.

[Aceluke]

I put up a few of the ideas that seemed logical and feasible. Other than that I am not putting up any more gitlabs.

Also, I only put them up on the xeno castes that lack a strain. May do more later

[Justicer3792]

So what is the goal here? Have 2 strains for each caste?

[Aceluke]

No real goal. Just more strains. I just didn't like them all personally as a nondev so I didn�t post all of the ideas.

I do agree, how many strains are wanted for each caste?

[reuben owen]

in my opinion its just the more the merrier, as long as none of them are OP
since its just meant to make xenos more flexible/varied/fun
