Shouldn't TLM's BloodShield be replaced with Techinican? After all, Bloodshield was implemented to prevent Smokescreen from being way too OP'd, but since Smoke's gone, should we get back Technician?

Also, it fits "Tactical Mercenary" better.

Discuss.

-Replace CH's Plasma Armour with Energy Shield

-Replace BM's Energy Shield with an empowered Blood Shield

@Depressed.

I was talking about TLM's. Please stay on topic.

I just try to have idle conversation and makes points related to the topic of this thread (see above), and I am coined for being off-topic.

With all due respect, please refrain from being a troll. You only serve to damage your own reputation in this community as well as many others. Keep this in mind as you post.

But, I believe that TLM's should regain Technician to really enhance their skills. Since we now have skills that horribly mismatched, the only logical builds for TLM's would be poison or support builds. Tanky builds are okay, but they don't work quite as well with Blood Shield.

With all due respect, you willingly created a balance themed thread outside of the Balance Discussion Thread.

I should not have to quote the EpicDuel General Discussion rules.

You are in no position to dispense legitimate authority.

EDIT: Am I not on-topic for quoting TacM to replace Blood Shield with Technician? That is the only topic of your thread anyhow.

Agreed. Blood Shield is useless. 15 HP for 15 res that last 5 turns isn't worth it IMO.

@Isaiah just to point something out it would take 60 points from Technician to equal 15 res and that is if its still improving every four plus Technician only last four rounds. Also it would take 131 Dex for you to get 60 Tech out of it and on my character that is meeting the reqs of my gear and throwing everything else into Dex. While I understand alot of you guys are Variums that still doesn't leave alot of points left over for Health and meeting the Reqs for other skills you want in your build not to mention if you need a couple of point sin energy just to make sure everything goes as planned.

So Blood Shield does have its advantages over Technician but if you want a really strong Bunker Buster you can use that 131 Dex to put Technician on yourself then show the enemy a good Bunker Buster.

Well turns out only Merc has Bunker Buster but you do have Surgical Strike but seeing as some of your TLM's claim that is a useless skill I don't see the benefit of boosting its damage by 12 damage if your not going to use it.

PLEASE. Blood shield is extremely annoying. 5 turns is too long.
Supported.

@OWA While that may be true Technian doesn't cost HP. You can not afford to lose HP at all nowadays.

No, what kind of class has 2 buffs?
But maybe replacing plasma armor with blood shield will give CH the nerf they need.

With Smokescreen gone I don't see why we can't have Technician back.

The whole reason behind Mercs eventual removal of BloodShield is that they don't have the health regeneration to make up for the cost of it. TLMs on the other hand have Frenzy which will cover the cost of it. A very nice combo for Strength builds to try out since FC and Frenzy are both cheap skills to use.

Techinican helps to boost Robot damage and deflections. I support this. I think I already said this lol.

@DeathGuard
You are right in that you were ontopic, I just wanted to discourage you from the other things you said (something about BM's and CH's)

I would both agree and disagree:

Agree- Technician doesn't use HP, improved by Dexterity, low cost.
Disagree- Rise of OP builds.

Heck YES. I really don't have a happy side or any positive aspects towards Blood Lust in the first place. Technician would create a great replacement, and could boost up our technology and resistance when we get Malfunctioned by Cyber Hunters or Tech Mages :-).

I agree because there's no more smoke and SS is the only skill it improves with.

Hun King that statement is completely unorthodox. I'm not sure that I can shoot my arms in the air and scream "I support that comment!" simply because TacM would be using a mage skill (they had owned Technician before)...

I really dont know if that would be good. It havent even been a week yet without smoke screen so I say wait abit longer...
They should first nerf CH to a equal level with the other classes, and buff Merc abit. After this is done I doubt that there is need of any changes. TM, BM, TLM and BH is quite balanced as it is now, in my opinion.
