OK, heres an Idea I've been thinkin about.

( Put on your imagination hats please)

What if there was a building a engineer could make that was nothing more then a hiding spot but Medics,AM's and/or WM's could have an artifact that could enhance that biulding.

i.e. Hut of healing - run in and get a drip style power up
Temple of doom - while inside you get double damage
etc...

This I thick would promte team play and dependence.

Comments please.

Hey, that sounds really neat... don't know if its possible, but sounds cool.

ooooh niice...lol...T.O.D (temple fo doom)..

..hehe

Szlat, Is this possible?

i thought of one while posting on fogs block petition..
a pandilin shield..(note the vehicle..just a prop that forms a shield in a door way ..where monsters can run though ..ppl can run through...but noone can fire through..)
its just a thought and culd be done to replace blocks ability to stack(and would also stop blocking ppls flee paths)

just a thought...prolly tedious eh..i dunno...so yeah my 2c

First we have got to be able to make a building that people can enter. I don't know how much work is involved in trying to generate a structure with doors and windows, that people can fire through. I suspect not trivial. Cannot just make it a vehicle, as you cannot normally walk around inside a vehicle.

After that, giving it special abilities could be done, and probably not too dificult.

You run into questions like "if its a healing hut does the medic get xp for the healing?" and "if the medic is getting xp for it why doesn't the Engineer?".

The big hesitation about trying this is about where people will spawn these buildings. Some people are irritated by blocks blocking their paths. Wait until someone starts spawning buildings in corridors.

So, I am more tempted by the other suggestion. There have been a number of posts about a "paladin" style shield wall. If you and your team could fire and walk through it, but the enemy couldn't, then it would not offend so many people.

So what style to make it? One option would be to just fill a corridor - up to a certain width/height. Another would be to start at a certain block size, and let people grow it somehow, so they could shape the wall. e.g. first charge increases width, second charge increases height.

What?...i made..*gasp* a feasible logical sugesstion!?!..egads!!....erm..ahem eys moving on..

hmmm..well i dunno..my spontaneous thoughts form ..30 secs ago tells me (i dunno how logical this one si but..) something like this..:

multiple artifacts of increasing price

#! would be a quarter shield..by that i mean i would take quarter the height and quarter the width of the corridor

#2 could be a 'width' one where it takes up half the corridors width and the norm quarter height

#3 could be a 'height' one where it takes up half the corridors height and the norm quarter width (same price as 2)

#4 could be a half height half width...

#5 half height whole width

#6 half width whole height

#7 could be full corridor AND of course be very expensive maybe even lvl dependant...

matter of fact the above things could be another skill altogether and its just really brief idea outline (cus i have to leave the house soon ) and yet again i dunno how practical it is but eh its and idea

also you culd take out some of the intimidates..i duno as i said its just and idea..

so yeah...thoughts? .

-EDIT-..could even be just set sizes that doubled in height first then width ....eh as i said its a thought..
