Cleave ability

schkorpio

<div class="IPBDescription">for aliens</div>I guess most people have played an RPG of some sort which will have cleave type ability in it. Anyway the cleave ability in a turn based game usually lets you get a free attack if you kill someone. so that way you basically get a free attack turn straight away.

I dont know what chamber this could go on, it could even replace something like focus lol <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

basically this ability would refill your adrenaline to 100% after each kill.

1 chamber 30% refill
2 chambers 60% refill
3 chambers 100% refill

of course you'd give it a better name than cleave since aliens don't use axes. so something like "frenzy" would sound better.

EDIT - oops posted in the wrong forum twice :S

Why change the Energy system? its fine already.

Anyway, IF this would be included in the game. it would not replace Focus on the sensory chamber, but Adrenaline on the Movement chamber.

This would also screw all other lifeforms than gorge and skulk because of the 100% Energy... Imagine a Onos with unlimited stomp and charge or a fade with unlimited energy. However if a strongly nerfed version of this ability ONLY applied for the Skulk. it would be balanced. (Because Leap isn't as strong as devour, stomp, charge and blink)

ayeee onos stop stomp stomp hit adre full stomp stomp stomp hit..

he said kill, not hit an enemy. Did you ever really stomp a marine to death? (i dont mean the charge-kill display bug). I say its too weak if you just get adren filled up for a kill... however if it were to work on every hit, it should work only with the first skill (bite/slash/gore/spit). But since you have more than enough adrenaline if you get the adren upgrade and know how to use your adren, you wont need this.

This isn't a half bad idea; I like Frenzy better. Although this would make Fades very, very, VERY powerful; as it is now, they jump in, swipe twice or thrice, then jump out to make their kills, all with one energy bar. Giving them more energy after a kill would make it even easier to escape. Plus, giving an Onos a full bar? His energy is supposed to recharge slow because he is a killing machine, and it is the only thing that holds him back from absolute massacre (besides maybe GLs and HMGs).
