(PSN)Shadow_Of_Hunhow Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 So, I've been thinking about how underwhelming sentinels are, and how they desperately need fleshing out, more variety in not only the sentinels themselves, but their abilities, and weapons! First, I think we need a separate lab for only sentinels and their weapons. The lab will take Helios and Djinn out of Corpus and Infested research, and place them in their own lab. Along with them, there will be weapons and other "pets" as well. New Sentinels 1. Osprey- As the name suggests, I believe we should be able to make our very own Osprey sentinel, to customize as we see fit! This could add Osprey accessory packs to the market as well, which I think would be pretty cool! Research Requirements- Alloy Plates, Plastids, Circuits, and a control module Precepts- Leech (Drains Enemy Shields and adds it to owners), Shield Booster (Adds set amount to shields, increases recharge rate), Miner (Drops Mines that explode), Attack Drone(Simple Attack), Ram (Attempts to ram enemies, similar to Oxium Opsreys) CAN ONLY HAVE TWO OF THESE TYPE OF PRECEPT ACTIVE AT ONCE 2. Orokin Drone- Again as the name says, we would get one of the little Orokin drones from void missions as our our pet! We know that eventually. a prime/corrupted accessories pack is coming, so this would go perfect with it! Research Requirements- Oxium, Galium, Control module, Salvage, and a Argon Crystal Precepts- Blaster, Shield Booster 3.Zanuka- With the Kubrow coming soon, I think it would be awesome to team up with everyone's favorite dissected tenno pet! Research Requirements- Morphics, Alloy Plates, Rubedo, Control Module, Circuits, and 1 fully built Excalibur for actual building Precepts- Blinding Light (Weaker, shorter, radial blind), Dispel (Magnetic procs enemies), Vicious Instinct (Simple attack) New Weapons 1. Incinerator- A weapon similar to the napalms, this shoots out a small fireball that burns where it hits for 10-15 seconds 2. Snowball- Fires a small blast of snow/ice at a target or group, doing a small amount of damage and slowing enemies similar to the voids cryo-floor 3. Voltaire- Fires a lightning bolt at a target, like a one shot Amprex 4. Marx- A Sniper rifle for sentinels, this boasts very high damage in exchange for very slow firing rate and reload 5. Boomer- A rocket launcher for sentinels, enough said New Abilites/Mods Targeting AI (Sentinel Auras) 1. Heavy Duty- Prioritizes heavy units as targets 2. Small Fry- Prioritizes common mobs as targets 3. Drone Warfare- Prioritizes Drones and Ospreys as targets 4. Free Fire- Attack anything in visual range Universal Warfame Abilites These can only be used if a Warframe is not using all four abilities, it will be mapped to the first empty ability slot. Example, if I have slash dash and radial javelin equipped, it will go in the second slot, if I have only radial blind it will go in the first slot. 1. Manual Override- At the cost of 75 power, your frame kneels and you take control over your sentinel for 30 seconds. activating the ability again after will cancel it and your sentinel will return to you. Duration affects control time, Range affects how far your sentinel can go from your frame (going outside of range will prompt a warning, if you don't back up the ability will be canceled, your sentinel will deactivate, and fall to the ground, staying until you come and and power it back up, solving a cypher will be how you do so) Strength will give a percentage of damage boost to the sentinels weapon. 2. Defender- Orders your sentinel to go and stay wherever you are currently aiming, can be used to "lend" your sentinel to another player, if they are targeted upon activation. Using the ability again will recall your sentinel 3. Agressor- Will cause your sentinel to fly to the selected target and attack without abandon, disregarding precepts in favor of killing the selected target. useful for attacking heavies or simply aggroing enemies to take the heat off of you for a second. using the ability again will recall them. That's all I have for now, I will add more as it comes to me!
Drunken_Child Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Looks like you put a lot of thought into this, good work.
NeyoWargear Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Very well thought out and nice variety of things, this would make Sentinels much more important and useful.
(PSN)Shadow_Of_Hunhow Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 Thanks to everyone, this actually was a lot less originally, but as I was writing I ended up coming up with more and more! I'm trying to think up more interesting things, maybe even am original sentinel or two!
Gammaion Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) I like this idea! Would love to have an osprey as a pet. Be it a mini osprey sentinel, I don't care. Have an upvote. Edited June 2, 2014 by Gammaion
