Each archetype is going to have one custom SA that is unique for that archetype. For the next three days we are going to take suggestions from the GLB users on potential ideas for this. At the end of the three days, I'll collect the best ones for each archetype and we'll go over them on the test server with the testers and Bort.
Here's a couple things to think about when suggesting a SA for the archetype:
1) It must be realistic (no "make the RB pull out a gun ala The Last Boy Scout if about to get tackled" SA's)
2) It must not be overpowered (no +10 to all attributes or things that would imbalance the game)
3) It must be something that makes sense for that archetype (for example, don't suggest an elusive back type ability for a power back).
It's also important to note that we will likely be getting rid of some VA's that already doing archetype things so we might be looking for a SA that will help take the place of that VA (some off the top of my head are Scat Back, Bull Rusher, and Technique Man but there are more that will be removed, I have to go through them all and figure it out)
Deadline to make a suggestion is 1:00 a.m. on 2/15/2010. This thread will be locked at that time. Please understand that your suggestion may not be used.
Try and post your custom SA's in the following format:
Archetype Name - Name of Custom Archetype SA
Brief description (<200 words, it should be simple to understand) of what the SA does. Be specific if it is supposed to increase a particular skill.
Example:
Power HB - Gunslinger
This ability allows a power back to have a % chance to pull out their six shooter and gun down anyone who gets in between them and the end zone.
The following is a list of all archetypes:
