Awesome, thanks.

Nice.

~Overview~

Support has been my favorite perk since I started playing KF, this server was no exception. The spread and penetration offered by Support makes mowing down mobs, and turning heads into canoes a blast. There’s something immensely satisfying about watching a ZED horde ragdoll backwards in a cluster fuck of limb and torso, or casually walking up to a FP and turning his head into spaghettios. With the addition of the Tigris and Horzine Med Shotgun to the server, Support can finally lay down some respectable damage. These were both great additions that I feel are pretty well balanced in comparison with other perk’s gun power. That said, Support’s trash farming capabilities and decent close range damage alone don’t make the perk very appealing. Support’s biggest issue is a lack of well, everything…

~What Support lacks~

Outside of ammo supply, there are on quirks that make Support unique like you see in other perks. I’m not saying all of these traits should be added to Support, just pointing out the lack of.

-Lack of survivability traits (extra life, armor, movespeed, regen, etc.)
-No Off-Perk bonus
-No ZED TIME traits
-Lack of primed weaponry
-Lack of reliable CC
-No special grenade/scaling

~Suggestions~

I have a few suggestions that I feel would add some depth to Support without making it OP. These changes would make Support more accommodating to newer players, and a more appealing perk overall.

-Auto Tigris alt-fire - please, my alt-fire key will thank you
-Have grenades scale with perk damage - I feel this would benefit early prestige Support quite a bit. It would also allow early players to forego Off-Perk if they’re just after grenade damage, freeing up valuable points.
-Remove legendary pet prestige requirement - This may seem OP but really wouldn’t even be viable until prestige 10+ due to the cost.
-Add 1 strong ZED for total of 1 legendary, 3 strong. Or maybe 2 legendary (after prestige 25)
-Life/Armor or Movespeed on supply
-Add ZED TIME trait(s) - Penetrator and/or Barrage from standard Support tree
-KnockDown (stumble) - lower point requirement, should be relatively native to shotguns.
Increase stumble chance on large ZEDS (chest or higher).
-Primed (focused) AA12 - Reduced pellet spread and higher RoF
-HZ12 Variant - With its large spread and pellet count this seems like a perfect candidate for some kind of CC, maybe 100% stumble, knock down, slowdown, or freeze.

I have no idea what goes into revamping traits or items, I understand some suggestions may be unrealistic to implement. Traits that are already in-game, I assume, aren’t too hard to throw in the server, again no idea. Big thanks to Sheep and his team for making this awesome server possible. I appreciate all the hard work and headache you deal with. Keep up the great work!

Love,
