One of my favorite Raiders is Doldren and like most other people I use a melee build for him which is Algor Mortis as his character card and Patient as his faction card. This build is useful for getting the drop on other raiders or antagonist. However it takes away one of my favorite strategies as Doldren which is the angler fish move. Basically you turn into your ghost form and fly around near your body till someone rushes for you in which you teleport behind them and ruin their day. Algor Mortis sorta takes this away and I wanna try more cards anyway. Here are some I was thinking about changing to please give me advice on these cards or some suggestions yourselves. Also keep in mind all states I talk about are from the rare cards cuz I always try to go for the rare ones.

"Frenzy - teammates 5 meters away from ghost form gain increased damage by 50% for 4 seconds. Aleph super boost increases it to 100%." I feel like this will help in both an antag and raider play but I question is there a cooldown on when the teammates can gain this buff or is it as long as I am 5 meters away does it just refresh instantly? Same question for these other cards as well.

"Reborn - After you teleport your melee does 70% more damage. Aleph super boost increases to 150%." Feel this is semi-useless sense Patient increases my melee a lot if I don't shoot my gun which I never really do only if there is a Harec or Shae to fight.

"Breath - When you pass a teammate (5 meters) they receive 200 health points. Cooldown of 5 seconds. With aleph super boost it increased to 400 health points." Great and all but I feel like it would be better if it gave some excess health or something. If it is just a heal then I question the usage of the next card I am about to mention. Plus don't see the point of it in antag form but I am sure there are some usages for it.

Finally "Sanctum - Teammates less than 5 meters from your ghost form have there stress bar turned off for 4 seconds. Aleph boost increases to 12 seconds." Whenever your not stress you gain a natural health regen...so although Breath is an instant heal it has a cool down to it. With Sanctum is doesn't seem to have a cooldown so as long as I am close to a teammate they naturally gain health right? As an antag this is kinda useless though or I think it is.

Thank you for anyone who reads this mess lol any help given is appreciated.

So probably a dumb question but I have fanart to post of a character idea but cannot seem to figure out how to post it. I have tried internet explorer and google chrome and neither one seem to allow me to post the image.

Can someone please help me figure out how to post it?

Ignoring Aneska's one and only possible skin to buy, I feel like her gun choice or future skins should also change the mech's appearance. This is useless to post however I wanna see the Mech in a different style this just a torn up robot zombie sort of style.

I don't know if this is a bug that has just been in the game for too long or if they meant it to be this way. If it is meant to be this way its terrible and shouldn't be.

Shae's "bewitch" ability is amazing to me. Great for getting away from supercharged elites, Large crowds charging you, or just confusing/causing stress to an enemy raider. However, I have noticed while playing as a raider Shae and you are the last one standing during a Survival all the enemies go to your location even if you bewitch every single enemy. They don't know where you are exactly but they know your general location cutting off any escape route. It is only during survival, any other time they just loose interest in you and just walk round. Why is this? It makes no sense I am not stressed and they don't have line of sight on me so why are they even coming in my general location and just not walking around in their position its insane.

I have always had this complaint but figured it was about time to actually make a post about it. I cannot think of a single game where you have to pay real-life money for a loadout slot. Maybe bonus loadout slots sure. Why make it to were you build a character up just to gamble to see if you have the right build on for that mission? There are some set it and forget it builds like Mikah's Granny with gyroscope card, not really being bad on any mission. But not every raider is like this.

I suggest making the first loadout cost gold. Or maybe even status points sense its currently just for a disco party (that you have to constantly by because you can only have so many of them at a time). Then making the third loadout cost mercury points if they must, I would still prefer it costing status or gold.

Also weren't they cheaper? I checked this morning and they cost 125? I haven't checked them recently so I don't recall but regardless I did math to see the total amount of mercury points needed to buy all of the loadouts. 2,250 mercury points. $19.99 would get me 2,500 mercury points so I would have to drop $20 just to get the second loadouts for every character, which like I said previously isn't needed for every character but is still insane to me.

What would be the downside to having the first loadout cost in-game currency verses real-currency?

I enjoy the new system that drops ammo and aleph after killing an elite. However I believe it should be tweaked a little.

After killing an elite the player who got the kill should get the aleph unless they have a 5 stack already which in that case it will drop to the ground. Having it now explode after awhile helps with elites grabbing it but my issue is the dirty thieves in the game. I run into player who run around in a circle around me while I kill the elite and then THEY get rewarded for my hard work.

Ammo. I do not know if it is a bug or something purposely put in the game but I feel as if kills provide less ammo then normal. This is a problem for characters like Shea or Harec where I tend to forget to grab ammo forcing me to jump into crowds to either get killed trying to get ammo or have another teammate killing them before I can.

My biggest complaint is the Aleph. If the ammo is never changed then so be it but I am getting annoyed by Aleph thieves swooping in and getting my rewards. Theses Thieves often don't even use their Aleph on the objectives.

The raider Loaht is one I didn't play a lot, however, I am currently trying to play him more and understand his set.

I love the character card "Feral" due to the fact I can stay in beast form much longer then I need to be. But I also enjoy using his gun Popcorn but find that the fuse time takes way too long to be fully effective compared to his other guns. The character card "Short Fuse" helps but also forces me to take off "Feral". A few days ago I discovered the faction card "Natural selection" and was curious on how it affects Loaht's beast form if at all. Also how much the card even heals for. The rare card provides a 75% chance after killing an enemy with a strike but does not provide a percentage of health. Also curious if this card works on HIVE's ability as well because if so does that mean I can pop my excess health and then just go to town on melee?

Sense this just came out I don't know how it fully works. However, I did the math and if you get a perfect 10 score on every mission (As a raider) you cannot max the adventure bar. Forcing players to play antag which a lot of players do not enjoy doing. That's if you even get a perfect 10 score. As a raider I had a team that did not die, did the mission incredibly fast, and I was the featured player and I still only got a 9.8 score.

I believe to make this system better is make it easier for people to get a 10 score whenever they are the featured player OR make it to were the score resets before the end of the month. Maybe half way through the month or a couple of weeks. That way players aren't forced to play antag missions.
