When rezzing people we should have the option for a bandage drops, a magnetic shield bubble, a cloak field, or some other mechanism that prevents damage from bosses and random aggro changes.

When throwing mines or grenades from the toolbelt or kit refinement + grenade kit they should be in a 90 degree cone in front of the engineer not everywhere but the enemy.

Kit refinements changed:

Medkit to get a AOE heal or condition removal or at the very least drop about 6-8 bandages.

Toolkit to get the magnetic bubble

EG to get the AOE heal zone restored to it or at least a persistant AOE acid zone as big as our enhanced smoke cloud from bombs.

Smoke vent on Flame Thrower to be more like black powder pistol ability on thieves.

Rocket Boots/ Rubber Boots allowing for a 25% signet run speed boost.

Rocket boots changed to a targetable forward jump shot style attack instead of a self CC.

Balance Team: Please Fix Mine Toolbelt Positioning!

Just going to address these inline… won’t get into the rest at the moment…

When rezzing people we should have the option for a bandage drops,

We have the when we go down (it’s a trait), or when can drop a heal turret (it lasts for a few seconds, hopefully), throw bandages (trait), and our Elixir Gun regen WORKS WHEN PERFORMING OTHER ACTIONS… including rezzing.

a magnetic shield bubble,

I have Runes of Earth, so when your health gets too low, a bubble pops up (I have about 6 automatic skills/buffs, 2 elixirs, 3 protections, the shield bubble, etc. that all work when otherwise engaged). It isn’t a guardian level bubble, but it is something. We have a shield wall/smoke wall from toss Elixir U, our gear shield works even when we are doing something else for a few seconds…

a cloak field,

Toss Elixir S does Invis OR Stability, both of which should prevent you getting knocked out of a rez, and the invis affects who you are rezzing as well. It doesn’t last long, but it will reset the aggro table until the rez is complete…

or some other mechanism that prevents damage from bosses and random aggro changes.

Elixir S for mini-rezzes, Elixir U for speeeeed rezzes, Elixir X for Tornado or GIANT rezzes, and this doesn’t even cover things like Sup. Runes of Mercy… which is going pretty far for just rez options, but are amazing none-the-less.
