Octane Should be a Grenadier! Revised

Dev

@EA_Kent

@EA_David

I realized Octanes Loves Grenades and things that go boom, so how about making Octane a Grenadier.

He really needs a buff.

A grenade themed buff would be perfect for him.

Tactical: +45% Stim speed.

Passive: Takes 50% less damage from Grenades. "Not thermite or Arc-Stars."

Vision unaffected by Caustic Gas.

Due to goggles.

Able to pickup reset hot Grenades and rethrow them.

Ultimate:

Jump Pad Explodes when destroyed.

Jump Pad Explodes when used by enemies.

Jump Pad can be thrown under Enemys to blow them up in the sky, dealing 100 damage, and allowing Octane to shot them while they are in the Air.

Can be thrown under downed Enemies to quickly blow them up!

Large Explosion, large AoE,

Explosion send legends flying!

100 damage

When Jump-pad Explode by throwing under enemy or by shooting and destroying jump-pad, 

Jump-Pad blow all enemy players up in the air!

Jump-Pad can be used as a quick escape or attack.

  • I feel like Octane should take extra knockback from grenades but that's basically what the jump pad is for

    I like the grenade part, giving him reduced throwable damage sounds reasonable because one of his finishers is even a grenade exploding at his feet.

    Not a fan of the caustic gas buff for him, that would be a big buff and just not normal that just a mask and googles would stop a burning reaction 😛

    Fine, no nox grenade resistance.

    But the 50% reduced Nade damage and 45% stim speed has to happen!

    Those 2 are the most important.

    The Explosive jump-pad would be just for fun.

    buff octane by giving him bangalors speed boost when there's a fight. i use the ps4 controller and the tactical ability is on the right stick pushed in, and when i fight as octane the hand pushes on the right stick and this makes him run fast and this gives me a boost, normally people don't have this on the m/k, a upgrade would grant regular m/k this ability i described.

    and cryptos drone is impossible for me to bring down normally.

    to help crypto let him booby trap rooms like caustic. if his drone is in booby trap mode when the opponent comes in the room they get shocked like the electric fence. i can say caustic is the best player after playing as him and if you really want to make a different player better caustic is the guy to imitate.

    @RustedYodaI know Crypto is kinda sad and pathetic but this post it not about him.. and his pitiful drone. Ha ha ha!
    Its about BOOM, Explosions, and Octaane!

    and by Octane I mean SPEED!

    BOOM!
