Corn

Just increase his damage and make it just like the soldier's damage. Butter beacon could do toxic damage in a small area and show enemies in the large radius that it has now. Also maybe you could take less damage from a stink cloud wile in the toxic damage zone. Also remove the damage buff from butter beacon if you apply those changes.

    @Tudor648Why toxic damage though? ''If'' the ability would be changed, it should be the old skill. On a second note, the corn is indeed weak compared to the zombies side. Hopefully, they will give him a small damage buff. The nerf to both HP and damage was severe for an offensive character imo.

    Unpopular opinion: I think butter beacon is underrated. If placed well, it can show a bunch of enemies to the whole team which makes it great for flanking.

  • @Tudor648 I think corn and foot soldier should have the same primary fire dmg without corn having to use butter beacon. Corn using butter beacon gives him dmg equal to footsoldiers primary fire alone, but should the foot soldier simply throw down a stink cloud, the corn deals way less dmg. They should both have to chuck out their thrown abilities to hit similar dps. Or maybe add more utility to corns butter beacon by allowing other corns to do more dmg against zombies buttered by you.
  • @Provin915 No the devs said in a live stream that zombies hiding in the stink cloud are completely concealed from the butter beacon. It's even a tip in the loading screen -_-
  • @Provin915   Finally! Someone else who can appreciate the beacon.  It would be nice if he had a temporary damage boost while the beacon is in use.  Knowing where players are can help your teammates tremendously.  It does need some love though, whether it boost xp or some of the ideas said throughout this thred.  I can’t quite call it yet.

  • I would've said make it deal 1 damage per second in a wider area but I just realized that that's what toxic damage does but it's a bit different. You know what I think I have a better idea maybe all zombies with butter on them are set on fire by any attack no matter if it's a snap dragon or not and keep the "see the enemy trough walls" stat it's useful. But if he gets a buff to his primary which I hope will happen I think the stat that lets you do more damage should be removed. Being able to set enemies on fire would be nice but I mean like after burn not the way snapdragon does it now. This may cause some imbalance issues but that's why I made this post so that people can give their opinion on and and who knows maybe POPCAP sees this and implements this in the game. I hope

    @chogath_player  Oh I must have seen it wrong then, my bad! Thank you for the tip. Buggy game sometimes, eh!

    @dwooten77  That is a nice suggestion, a temporary damage boost against enemies revealed by the beacon!
