Honestly Light Assault needs a second ability. Every other class has two class defining abilities. Heavy Assault: Rockets + Shields Medic: Medic tool + Heal Aura/Revive Grenades Engineer: Turret + Repair Tool + Ammo Max: massive armor + dual wielding guns. Infiltrator: Cloak + Hacking Light Assault: Jet Pack In early beta we had ammo kits and I understand why they gave it to engineers but as it stands now Light Assault really feels like half a class. Less than that if you don't have C4 unlocked. (Not that the jet pack isn't awesome.)
I want a portable elevator pad, one that I could throw down at the base of a wall and let my squad ride up. We need a support role and getting to high places is sorta our thing anyway. Like the Telekinesis spell in Darkfall.
I always wanted to see the LA get some tools that would play up his ability as a forward scout. Something that would add to his ability as a teammate as opposed to being a very lone-wolf class currently. Maybe some sort of advanced spotting or even helping other classes reach higher points once he jets up like a rope. Just a thought
Lol x2. I dunno how I'm ever going to save for the second c4 when I want to upgrade my Magrider and Scythe, not too mention all the other LA class and weapon certs.
I think LA should be immune to Q. at least for me, my survival largely depends if I can sneak around. Jump in, kill someone, run around a corner, jump pack up and over, then get shot by the guy that was following my icon.
I'm already in love with the light assault with just the jet pack. I hope this doesn't turn the LA into the FOTM making LA zergs heh.
Yea I'd love if we got a bit more survivability. When even a medic can hand you your *** in a strait 1 on 1 firefight at close range (especially if you aren't using a shotgun), you know something is off. A second ability would be killer though. Perhaps first C4 for free, that'd be awesome but it would have to come with a cert refund. After all, afaik LA is the only class in the game that has to spend 700 certs to be considered 'complete'. It'd be like a HA not starting with a rocket launcher heh.
Give the LA the infiltrator's radar gun and buff it's duration and range. If I'm going to jet above the enemy and behind enemy lines, I might as well be able to drop radar for my buddies coming around the corner
im sure it will be that all LA get a rope that you can tie to maxes. just imagine 6 LA rising over a wall with one max hanging under them.
Go figure. So it's a placebo then? You're going " Wooooohoooooo sooooo faaaast!!!!!" while not noticing the engineer keeping up with you.
