Support Classes - Meet the Engineer (and the medic)

[Melvarius]

I think I'll wait for more sub-classes before making up my mind

you can wave your magic pixy wand and heal people with love while I am building a fortress of doom and not letting you in

You're joking, resurrect?

Resurrect...

This mod is beginning to kick cRPG out of stardom....

Dont quote me, but i do believe its possible, even if its a rather unorthodox way of doing things

Plus, I as a dev want a massively OP staff of ressurection i can go around and spam in servers to rez all the recruits, so now I HAVE to find a way to do it

I think it would be nice if you could separate the respec for the main class and the support class, which would allow people to see which one they truly want to play and not fork over a lot of gold just to be sure of it and their playing style.

I posted this as a thread starter.  Perhaps it should be here.

Hi,

I love tactics and strategies so I am really looking forward to barricades and deployable shields (EDIT: Yes I know that you can use deployable shields without being a tinker) and so forth!  However right now I am still a ways from getting the support class.  Problem?  One of my FOUR weapon slots is taken up by "support slot".  WHY?  I don't have a support slot but I really could use that weapon slot?  No other mod has decreased the number of weapon slots and for good reason.  I think that the fourth box should be OPTIONAL for a support item or a weapon.  I can only assume that the modders did this to limit the number of support items available in-game which I agree with but surely they could make it where the problem I have stated is rectified.

Thank you for reading,

You can use deployable shields without a support class. They cost only 500 gold or so on the market and they are very useful if placed properly. They can only be put on support slot.

I suggest adding assist xp for how much you heal allies. Like... x2 or something. Heal 70 allied HP - get 140 assist XP?
