okay, so i'm not really done leveling my last group yet, but ever since i found my old deer avenger 3d disc, i haven't been able to get this idea out of my head - damn thing won't leave me alone!

all of the various munition powers represent a weapon you can unlock and use for hunting in deer avenger, so while there might be serious redundancy and some of them might suck...they all need to stay (yes, the rocket launcher was an unlock too)

also, if anyone reading this could give me some ideas for a name...the character from the game whom i based this character off was called Bambo, which is a combination of Bambi + Rambo - a good name, but obviously not one i can use, since 'no clones' and all that

EDIT: oh, the blank power slot is for burst shot​​

I don't think you'll come under issue for using a more obscure name or license, but I understand playing it safe (though keep in mind the 'no clone' rule also refers to the costume). How about 'Rambi' instead?

Int + Quarry can work, but I went for Ego + TC here since ur using KI instead of MSA as the energy unlock, and it works a bit better w/ Guardicator (though Avenger w/ RA and Vindicator are okay too), due to Force of Will adding to the offense/defense loop. This does mean changing the gearing focus to Ego.

I assume the empty slot is Burst Shot.

legendarylycan

oh, i forgot all about TC...i took quarry because munitions doesn't have an offensive passive - and yes, the empty slot is for BS

and i would prefer to not use BR on shotgun blast...it already knocks back as it is, and i cannot stand KB spam when i'm using a melee character, so i don't want to subject other players to it if i can avoid it

and i definitely want to keep the avenger spec, because deer AVENGER and all that

as for the costume...i don't think i could replicate the EXACT appearance in CO's editor even if i tried - for one thing, i don't think headbands exist in CO yet​​

Yea I know, just speaking in general here.

As far as Avenger: it works, but def get Relentless Assault. Since ur using maintains, the offense from it will feed into Aggressive Stance.

And Shotgun can already KB innately. I took BR cause if ur using it for CC ya mine as well make it reliable CC. Otherwise, I dun really see much the point, as you can still KB targets when using it anyways- ya just won't be able to predict when that will happen w/o the adv.

legendarylycan

i don't want reliable knockback; i don't want knockback AT ALL on the shotgun - if it HAS to have a knock, i'd rather it have knockDOWN...at least that helps melee players instead of screwing them over

i ought to go make that a suggestion, actually​​
