Alright.

So recently I started a suggestion thread which has outlined a ton of new, and completely original robot special ideas. However, after thinking for a while today, I felt like implementing a new robot for every single special was impractical, and obviously never going to happen.

Then I started thinking, "could we add "special" customization to robots, just as there will be ability customization on weapons/armor in Omega?" Absolutely, and in fact, I think it would also be a perfect way to keep Varium relevant, while also keeping the gap closed.

Here is what would happen.

Just like there is going to be an ability shop, there will be a "special" shop for robots. Certain robot specials will have credit options, some will have Credit and Varium options, and others will be Varium only. With this said, Varium-only specials will not be any better than credit only specials in any way shape or form, but would instead allow Varium players access to a wider range of specials (more customization).

ANYWAY

Once the special has been purchased, you are free to swap it out on ANY robot that has a special. I think this would do many productive things, and solve many issues.

1) It adds and enhances upon to the ability customization system coming in Omega
2) It gives a perk/variety to Varium players
3) It is super easy to implement, and will not stress the artists
4) It will greatly reduce build copying (more variety = more builds)
5) It will add diversity to the game

So that is my idea. Feel free to leave some feedback below, and check out my other thread with all of the robot specials!

NOTE: In order for this to work effectively, some other changes must be made. For example, since people will no longer be able to distinguish the special of a robot by its appearance, the equipped special should be shown on the character detail screen.

I think this is a great idea because people who have varium would have access to more varium features to create more creativity with both options especially with the bots and the weps but the power gap between var and non varium will be equal due to Omega.

Not supported.
This time I don't like the idea because some of the times our stragedy changes depending on the robot the enemy uses.

The strategy will still change, because now robots will have so many possible specials. In order for this to work, I think your opponent should be able to see what special is equipped, but otherwise I don't really think your argument makes any sense.

Yep that's the point. I simply don't like blind fights. If we're able to see what special the opponent has, then I can definitely support.

 Isn't strategy a key point in PvP game anyway..? That's the whole point, you gotta find a way to go around the possible specials or something to lower its effect. >_>

Changed. I should have specified that originally, but I forgot. However, I agree, this is a must. People should be able to see what special they will be fighting against, especially when the pool of specials will be so diverse.
