Subskills

[Pi-Oh-Pah]

For some reason when I put this in the Brainport it wont show up as a new thread so I am putting it here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Someone posted an idea that got me thinking - they suggested new versions of the classes.

How about if you choose a Gentank and go for Special Forces it adjusts your mainskill caps a little

e.g.

Gentank(Special Forces)

Int 40
Str 90
Con 90
Dex 75
Psi 5

The 5 PSI would allow u to still have the basic Heal/Def/Basic resist

40 Int could give you some extra points for hacking (you are Special Forces after all)

Str/Con lowered but still plenty to use 90% of weapons

I dont have time or patience to reskill all the subskills but what do you think ?

A few levels up or down here and there will make a difference and improve the 4 'stale' classes as they stand. The current subskills mean nothing other than you getting a low TL Res/Con/Rep/Rec tool atm anyway and a low TL weapon.

Nah, we would end up with some REALLY uber overpowered people and the community would create even more (if possible) nerf posts. Its bad as it is :)

(idea is great though, just not possible to balance at all I think)

erm..............
Good idea, but...
Looking at those stats, they would be a bit fucked.
They wouldn't be as good with heavy guns as 'normal' tanks.
Thier INT, while higher than usual, isn't enough to gain them any overall defence, much better WEP though.
DEX is slighyly better but again doesn't offer them anything else/other alternatives.

So you end up with a char that has less defence and offence with little gain other than some hacking/poking.

Bah, what do I know.

ATM I feel that subskills mean absolutely nothing - doesnt matter what you choose, you just put the points where you want them.

I LOVE the idea.
It would give us more possibilities to create a unique char and to
tweak stuff..

5 stars m8, I'm impressed.

Blargle.
I'm just bored, got up to go to lecture at 9, only to find that it's not on.
So I'm sitting in the comp room, using thier shitty comps, with fucking Netscape (which I detest)
Ohh crap time for maths, sorry I mean 'Analytical methods and skills' O_o

I think your taking this far outside any changes the subskills would need
