New legend Concept: Beast or Prowler
Hello everyone,
I thought of this legend concept with mechanics which aren't in the game yet. I think he could be very fun.
The core of its kit is to transform in various beasts from the Outlands to engage in battle, support his squad or tear his enemies apart.
Passive " The Shark within" : Whenever Beast damages the health of an enemy he can scent its blood and follow a trail, which will be left behind from the injured enemy until they heal (similar to sparrows scan from tactical).
Beast is part of the assault class.
Tactical "Beast Form": Beast can switch between three forms (like the select wheel when choosing an healing item). Those forms grant a passive bonus. (CD: 10 seconds)
Prowler form: Grants 5% movement speed.
Flyer form: Grants threat vision and the ability to scan beacons.
Goliath form: Grants fortified bonus.
Ultimate ability "Unleashed": Beast can transform in a light smaller version of the selected beast form of the tactical. His Shields and health remain the same as before the transformation. While in this form Beast can not heal and shoot his guns but he gains other options to deal damage or to support his squad:
While using the ultimate ability, the passive effects of the tactical is disabled.
Prowler: you gain 20% movement speed and increased jump height and distance. With your primary fire you can use your claws to deal damage, which delivers two swift strikes for 30 damage each (total of 60 DMG). When using your tactical u can pounce a short distance (20 meters/5 seconds CD). When using your ADS in this form you deliver a bite, which causes 30 damage and applies a bleed to the enemy hit (5 seconds CD). The bleed damages for 5 DMG per second and lasts 5 seconds.
Goliath: you gain 30% damage reduction. Your speed is reduced to 85%. With your primary fire you can charge an attack with your powerful arms to slam the ground in front of you and deal a minimum of 50 AOE DMG to a maximum of 100 AOE DMG (AOE in form of a cone). The longer the attack is charged the wider and longer the cone gets. When using your ADS u can throw a piece of rock, earth, cement (depends which ground you are standing on) which u rip from the ground dealing 50 AOE DMG on impact. When using your tactical you charge 50 Meters in a straight line and become unstoppable, get a damage reduction of 50% percent and destroying every placable and doors in your path (u will run through gibbi dome and lifeline ult, which only block projectiles). When triggering the tactical again or reaching the maximum length u stop and slam the ground, knocking all enemies in your vicinity up and stunning them for 2 seconds. While charging your movement speed is 110% (10 seconds CD).
Flyer: you gain the ability to fly. You can not move on the ground and your movement speed is 150%. When using your primary fire u fly upwards, when using your ADS you fly down. When using your tactical u dive down in a fixed half pipe motion reaching the ground and every teammate which stands in this zone is grabbed by you with each claw and you can transport them with you (works on downed Teammates too). Teammates can decide to leave and drop down any moment. Teammates can heal while grabbed by you but not fire their weapons or use tactical abilities. If teammates are knocked while in air, they stay in your claw.
Enemies can not be grabbed.
Each ultimate form lasts 20 seconds. You can decide to end the ultimate early. Cooldown 120 seconds.
If u get knocked in beast form you turn back to normal.
Perks:
Level 1:
"Swift Predator": Reduced Ultimate CD (100 Second total CD)
Or
"Durable Predator": Longer Ultimate Duration (30 seconds total duration)
Level 2:
"Bloodlust": When killing an enemy, his surviving teammates are shortly revealed and pinged on the map (5 sec).
Or
"Wolf Pack": While the whole squad is not further away from each other than 30 meters, all members gain improved weapon handling and Beast shares his passive with his teammates which can trigger the passive themselves.
As for the backstory I only know that Beast is a male and inspired by beast boy from the DC universe. The rest can be added by you :)
Let me know what you think, legends :)
