BftC: R Brainstorm : Gunslinger

The fourth and final hero in INT category, Gunslinger.
Well, I had this concept i mind for a lot longer time, but never could actually put it down. Gunslinger was too chaotic topic to think upon, and if you consider Gunslinger to be an average Sniper guy, you already have lots of such Sniper Heroes floating around. What would make this guy different, then?

Thankfully, a few people have come to help. Bloodcount and Sidove from TheHelper.NET have really contributed their great ideas in making of Gunslinger concept.

The model would be custom-made, the Rifleman Elite model that was featured in Elimination Tournament. (I was lucky enough to grab it) And it would feature all high-def and super skill abilities.

The first ability concept is Camouflage. Do not be mistaken with the standard invisibility ability. Camouflage is actually vertex color changing ability. The Gunslinger would change his robes and cloak to match the color of surroundings and hence becoming a lot difficult to spot. This means, he would change Green while standing on Grass or near Trees, and change Blue if standing over water. Additional time spent in camouflage will cause Gunslinger to become more adept at using it, gaining Evasion, that rises over time. Plus, the Gunslinger would become partially transparent to enemy's eye, making it even harder to spot. However, leaving the area would cause him to lose all disguise and revert Evasion back no none.

The second ability - the infamous Gunstinger! Upon special request from Bloodcount, the ability was almost confirmed for the Hero. Gunstinger is staple move from Devil May Cry series, first featured in Devil May Cry 3. The user would dash forward towards the target, ramming his gun's muzzle into the target, and hence damaging the foe, while the foe is thus stunned, user would pull the trigger, and a point blank discharge, right into the face of the unfortunate foe, tossing it off. Well, it can be really good. Gunstinger is a great move for someone carrying a Gun.

Two more abilities are required to make this Hero ready to go. Well, I shall think of 'em soon enough. Till then, See ye'

  1. Camouflage is an AWESOME ability. I loved it.Wow!

    BTW,how do you plan to make 'GUNSTINGER'. The model animation should suit the ability. Does he has any such animation?
