Archetype/Kit Ideas
-
So i am lazy and I like making my player base do my thinking for me, so I am going to give you a few examples of what I want to see, and you do the rest.
Some ground rules:
- Do not comment on each others ideas.
- Do not comment on each others ideas.
- Do not comment on each other ideas.
I don't care if they are unbalanced, broken, or ridiculous. Something might give me an idea to submit to our script team to make and I do not want balance- just let your creativity flow.
