Medigun Idea: The Kralle

[hawkshadow741]

The original model idea was by Randomteddybear

Replaces Quick-Fix

Replaces Kritzkreig

Now, as for making it a completely separate Medigun, here's my idea for stats

The Kralle
Level 20 Medigun
Able to heal/overheal two targets at once
50% faster healing rate on single target
No Ubercharge
When healing two allies, healing rate is cut in half
When healing two allies, overheal is reduced to 125%

Hitting M2 will cause another healing beam to snake out and heal another teammate

granted, Third Degree Pyros will suddenly become very popular, but hey, servers have class limits for a reason

The 50% reduced overheal means rather then getting the regular 150%, each ally will get a 125% health boost

Uhh, don't want to get all Grammar ♥♥♥♥ on ya, but that would mean Heavies go up to 525 HP, rather than the 375 you were obviously trying to imply. Even worse was the former part of the sentence where Heavies would get 750 HP

Well balanced idea, sort of horns on on Quick-Fix territory a little bit. But Dual-Pocketing would be so beautifully pubstompy that I just can't say no to the stats.

well the overheal isn't as much as the Medi or Kritz, period

Instead of saying 75%, say 125%, this should get the meaning you were implying.

Here is an example of what I am talking about:

Soldier un-overhealed has 200 health, overhealed, he has 300 health, 150% of 200. That is 100 over heal health.

If you want to cut a soldier's overheal in half, that means you want him to have 250 health, 125% of 200. That is 50 overheal health, 1/2 of 100.

Eh. It's another Overhealer. I'll pass.

Sooooooo it's a direct upgrade? Heal one person, get faster rate. Heal 2 people, heal them at normal Medigun rate. The only downside is no Uber. The other 2 are statistics.

[The Froz]

No uber is a very drastic effect.

The model is extremely distracting.

It sounds stupid but it's true.

[Deus35Crasher]

No uber...nobody would play it over medigun.

Ok, these were kind of pompus responses. I was merely trying to help you and you just sorta brushed it off. It's not even like this was your idea. Everywhere I've seen the Kralle I have seen people talk about it healing 2 people at once.

The one place I've seen that was him in another thread with the same stats...

"The only downside is no ubercharge."

Ah, well in that case. Wait. No ubercharge? You mean "No eight seconds of invincibility"? You're right! This thing is a direct upgrade. After all, being able to heal two people slowly or one person at normal speed is a much bigger tactical advantage than being able to turn a patient completely invincible once a minute.
