If they buff the imp they need to be super careful. He's half the size of Rose, if his normal power becomes too strong he could easily replace her as the new master of PVP because of how tiny he is.
Love the Party Imp with a passion. He is just too damn cool!
Just too bad he deals no damage, dies if someone looks at him funny and can only be useful for about 10 seconds every half moon with the Mek. I get most of my kills in the Mek, too bad the Imp gets no experience while in Mek form. Maybie you could give the Imp 50 XP as a ´nice try´ bonus when he dies. I would be max rank by now if that was implemented.
The ´Impkata´ should also be renamed ´Impsuicide´ because if I use that ability I die every time and almost never kill anyone with it. 3 damage? Wow! Glass cannon!
For real, an ability that makes you almost stationary and deals poor damage... Its just death sentence for the Imp if anyone is within line of sight. Unless there is a Rose around that is. Then I don´t even need to use the 'Impsuicide' skill for be guaranteed dead in a second.
I like playing against the Imp though. Easy money, easy exp. But I generally feel dirty as a plant since some of my teammates are playing Rose and I get implicated by proximity.
Killing an Imp, even one with buffed damage is easy peas(y) if you know how to lead with weapons to compensate for bullet travel time. If the poor Imp stays stationary for even a second a half baked sneeze will finish the job properly.
Don´t buff Impkata damage back to the 6.5 dmg of BETA times. But around 4-4.5 would be nice. 10-15 more hp would be nice and about 20% dmg increase for the regular pistols would also be nice. Gave devs needs to learn how to fine tune changes and go slow not these massive herky jerky buffs/nerfs we saw post beta. Not to SMASH the nerf hammer or make some characters ascend to divinity. Beta balance was 5000% better then current state regarding Imp/Rose. All other classes are mostly fine to be honest, so they did a good job there.
I still can't play Chomper though, but I've never been good with that one. But why would anyone play Imp at the moment? The ONLY possible reasons is if you like a massive challenge or the cool factor because game play wise he´s got nothing over the other Zombies.
