Level 35 Hacker

Possibly a Cabbage Posted:

I agree entirely. The fact that hackers don’t play like a 1,2,1,2,1,2 clbum is one of the most interesting things about them. It does gimp them on speed runs, but ET posted that speedrunning is going to be clbum specific soon so that’s not a concern.

Some attacks perhaps should have their refresh times slightly reduced (putting 404 at a refresh of 4 or 5 wouldn’t end the world), and some should actually have their refresh times increased as a tradeoff for making them better (if avtr was actually an effective attack, but had a refresh time of 2 or 3, that would be just fine).

It would behoove ET to eventually introduce a second hacker combat tree so that they do something other than “attack for damage.” Each other clbum has at least one combat ability that makes them unique: Trolls can temporarily buff themselves, Camwhores can heal, Emo kids get more powerful as they get hurt *AND* they can come back from the dead… Hackers just have fancier animations for their attacks. Since the *only* thing right now that really makes hackers play in a unique way is the long refresh times.

I think avtr and flipr should be buffed and have their refreshes swapped. Also, it could be nice if Hackers got more varied abilities. I don’t know what you could have them do. Perhaps they could zombie other posters? This could be an Offense boost, or perhaps something else.
