Here’s an idea for Engineer’s Rifle: If net shot was able too be changed to a “Taser strike” if a specific skill trait selected that the Net shot now can also electrocute the enemy as well as just the holding target in place.
The damage “taser strike” makes is small DPS say 1 each second they are still and adds length of 1 second to the immobilize time on the net. Tazer strike cooldown having 1/4 sec added to what net shot uses.
The F key skill would be to over charge the net to hit either:

1, Any enemy in small spash radius of target takes small damage when net strikes target
or
2, If cast apon target by their allies with a remove they get a cripple condition on them if they are under a certain radius.
or
3, It could just work as a lightning combo field for engineers allies
So what does anyone think of this? ideas or improvements on any of this add after

Net doesn’t paralyze, it immobilizes. In that case why not just ask to add a second to that?

1. “The damage “taser strike” makes is small DPS…”
2. There are many more effective ways of doing this than relying on a net shot to land.

Personally I would like to see the rifle CD/Attack speed trait in firearms to be made baseline and/or have evade frames added to jump shot. As for net shot, the buff it got this patch is nice and very noticeable and is fine the way it is.
