Warframe Concept: Sentinel Overlord

[Karma_Ghost]

Name: Rook (chess)

 

Core theme: Sentinel manipulation

 

Model: Short, stocky, male warframe. The super sentinel used for his ultimate is stored on his back.

 

Basic Stats:

Health: High

Shields: Med

Speed: Low-Med

Energy: Med-High

 

Abilities:

 

1.) Override [25 Energy]: Sentinel AI is overridden and will continuously fire wherever the user is aiming (follows reticle). 

 

- Damage is increased by 75%/100%/125%/150%

- Base duration 8 seconds at all levels

- Equipped weapons still function normally.

- Cancels Deploy when used

 

2.) Deploy [50 energy]: Sentinel is mounted in place and automatically fires at enemies within a 90 degree arc. 

- Damage is increased 100/150/200/250%

- Base duration 20 seconds at all levels

- Cancels Override when used

 

3.) Lock Down [75 energy]: Assume control of security systems. Doors will only open for tenno. Turret targeting parameters are reassigned. 

 

- Base range of 60m at all levels

- Base duration 6/8/10/12 seconds

- Utilities include: providing breathing room during defenses, stopping pursuers, and allowing doors to be used as reliable cover.

- Fits theme by virtue of assumed programming skills.

 

4.) Security Protocol [100 energy]: Deploys a super sentinel equipped with explosive auto cannons. 

 

- Base duration 8/8/10/12 seconds.

- Damage undecided. It should be more effective than Ember's World on Fire, at the cost of only engaging targets within its line of sight.

- Base blast radius for shots should be limited to ~2.

- Security Protocol hovers over the right shoulder or high above the user. Equipped sentinel functions as normal.

- Can be used simultaneously with Override and Deploy.

The only issue i see is with override drop the damage percent to 75% for the first lvl then move from there only because of massive abuse being possible.

[Karma_Ghost]

Fair enough.

 

Override dropped to 75/100/125/150

Can you still use your weapons? While override is active.

Think so as long as you're aiming the entire time :L

Yes. The sentinel's weapon simply fires continuously for the duration. Everything else functions as normal. I'll add a note in the OP to clarify.
