Sticky lerk powers + magnetics

El dealio: Lerk spore & umbra only work if fired at alien or marine players & creates the area-affect thingy around them for 6-8 seconds. Either drains lerk's energy by 75%. The whole "shoot at spot and hope people stay in it" thing works with spore, but umbra's a little more tricky imo.

Magnetics = semi-counter spawn spam / secret weapon thing. Not sure what alien class it's for, but it causes targeted marine's gun & pistol to fly toward the alien & no pickup for 2-3 secs after the weapons hit the ground. Also has the reverse effect for nades - they fly backwards (passive for nades, or always in effect).

Meh?

    That, and this idea is horribly imbalanced...

    Marines not having guns? Why not just make it one hit kill instead? Knives aren't going to kill anything, especially if the aliens are a higher form.

    well i think it would really help if umbra and spores were a lot smarter -

    if you walk through a cloud of spores as a marine, the spores would follow you a little bit

    same with umbra - when an alien walks through it the umbra would envelope the alien for a short perioud of time.

    Interesting... I think that idea deserves its own thread though.
