having the cactus do thorns damage has always made sense to me.  I would love if the potato mine was either an immediate spudow upon placement or if it was a proximity like the scientist ball of hate (also when one of these goes off the cactus gets a speed buff).  If the shield potatoes/walnuts (can't remember the name) would do a shout or something and slow all enemies in the area also that would just be hilarious. 

See you in game..

What exactly are the grounds for the cactus having a close range ability?  Is she supposed to be able to fight on PAR with a shotgun scientist that gets near her who beforehand cannot touch her?  I'm all for new abilities, but I'm not following the premise here for the cactus having this option.

    Someone above mentioned improving her range abilities rather then giving her a close range. This is probably the best idea I've read, if she doesn't get a shotgun like cut sharkbite and a barrel then she should at least be on par with his range shots. Captain sharkbite is hands down the better sniper then camo cactus without taking into consideration he can be equally deadly close range.

    That being said zen cactus is a very close second in the sniper department to sharkbite when upgraded. She's in my opinion the smoothest plant sniper. So any buff should probably just be towards most of the other variants.
