    Suggestion for the new SEEKER Gearset that never got used

    So here goes, since it's called "SEEKER", why don't we make it so that this Gearset gives us homing bullets that seek out the target?

    Players will be able to shoot the bullets mid air to counter them.

    Whenever you fire into thin air, the bullets will seek out the closest target.

    Flame turrets should also shoot rainbows and should have the ability to summon a unicorn to trample opposing forces.

    I see so far noone has understood the underlying message I want to make with this thread (as it's not a real suggestion).

    Are you trying to say skill deployment should be looked at?

    Example - should seekers be able to just seek? or should they need to be deployed in a way that requires more skill?

    Oh...we understand just fine QQ

    But I'll bite...slow the bullets down to 4 mph and make the gun a single shot with a 30 second reload. Then we'll talk.
    Also...the gun doesn't work unless you remove everything from stamina and put it in firearms. And other bullets automatically target your bullets and your bullets are attracted to NPCs before players.

    Then give us all a 10% resistance mod that nullifies your bullets.

    The latter. Say what you will, but if I could just randomly fire 60 bullets from my AR that just cruised around the map looking for an enemy to penetrate its skull, no skill power player would find it balanced.

    Was just hoping some of those stubborn seeker users would take the bait.

    Personally I think target designated seekers (or something like that) would help with seeker spamming. I'd welcome it. Its not really a nerf.

    That would be a buff if I could guarantee my seeker wouldn't go after an NPC or a support station...or another seeker or a turret etc etc etc etc

    in other words another way to kill stuff by having absolutely no skill at all (Take this to COD) im sure they'd love this idea (hmm sit behind cover , rest coffee cup on trigger, go get beer, rack up points... this adds a whole new level to stupid idea
