Why not a Knockdown Dome?
Hello, I think that there needs to be a major buff to all knockdown shields. Thirsting is a big thing in this game and can be really irritating, why don't you change them from sheild's, to domes. Yo...

@OnlymeCDT Yes, you are right. Knockdown Shields would still be pointless.
I think that a "Knockdown Dome" should have half the HP of their equivalent Knockdown Shield in order to be balanced (for example a level 2 - blue dome should block 225 damage compared to the 450 of a blue shield), and also lock you down to the ground so you can't move at all while you have it activated. At least that way you have a choice between the two and not just go with the dome for obvious reasons.
Also, a gold dome should not have a self res, but instead something like double bleed out timer, because trying to finish off someone that has a dome so they don't self revive would be pretty annoying. For gold shield you just have to get behind them.
- @BillyCrash100 Killing someone when they're knocked down is already cheap enough. To be honest, it should be made challenging. Really want that kill? Finish of the rest squad, or waste your ammo. I hate the fact that the team that gets ressed is a freekill.
- @hhnbbfggty66 Yes, thank you for your detailed argumentation on why this feature wouldn't be good to have in this game. I'm glad you took your time to point out all the issues, potential story related conflicts and abuses with this system. It all looks so clear now.
Jokes aside, killing a downed target is about as skillful as killing a Paratrooper during war with a sniper. Hence why I'm not doing it. I would much rather kill the whole squad without cheesy kills than going ahead and taking down downed targets only to rack up this kill counter for... what reason exactly? Flex? Never too sure what's going through the head of a hardcore player, to be quite honest with you.
