Blobbernauts need to not be able to pull things

Post by Zilenan91 » #151522

Makes for cheese like them pulling corpses behind them as a slime blob and pissing everywhere. Also lets them drag guns towards and emitters and things towards them, leads to blobs snowballing way too hard.

To be honest blobbernauts should just be made non sentient mobs again.

If the blobbernaut is able to drag emitters or medbots or whatever then you either have your shit too close to the blob, or they're overextending and now's your chance to cuck them.

Balanced.

Yes because its not like blobs usually have 10+ blobbernauts nowadays even without dominating the crew beforehand.

Never said they didn't, but really that's more a problem with blobbernauts than dragging.

It's the combination of:
* High health
* Powerful melee attacks
* Low cost to produce
* Player-controlled (so semi-intelligent, and dead ghosts become more blobbernauts)
* Able to drag fallen enemies (so they stop people being defibbed, meaning ghosts = blobbernauts)
Without these factors, they wouldn't be as strong. NPC blobbernauts were never this big of a problem.
