I came up with some possible Borderlands 3 (Bord3rlands?) class ideas that seem legit, in my sense. I'm here to tell you guys today about the Survivor. A friend and I came up with some skills of his, and a unique action skill you guys might like. I'm going to stress the fact that BL3 should have big areas for snipers.
I'm using a class set up found here http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/sh...d.php?t=283128 for the description.
Sissel (See-Sil) The Survivor
A class that can be a great sniper, and close combatant. Since he is known as the survivor, he has health regeneration, and skills to support it. Crouching can give you bonus accuracy and stability, which can be upgraded to the point where you don't move, but you have crazy accuracy and stability. Taking a page out of the campers book. He is also able to zoom in TWICE, unknown how to implement that as a command, but it should be possible.
He's known to use Sniper Rifles, SMGs, Pistols, and Shotguns. A wide variety of weapons can also be used, but he focuses on these.
He is mainly covered up by rags and weak armor. He wears arm pads and knee pads, along with a helmet to boot. His biking goggles doubles for sight enhancers. If you want a comparison, he's similar to Mordacai, in appearance, since they both live at the skin of their teeth. His melee weapon is a large combat blade, doubles for a can opener. (It doesn't)
Sissel wanders around the galaxy for the harshest environments, seeing how long he can live in said place. He's topped the record for living the the deadliest jungles by so called "experts" by six months! (Note: Experts didn't last very long. At least three hours.) His primary reason for traversing to Pandora, (or wherever BL3 takes place)is to test himself on the new harsh environments of the planet. That, and he wants the legendary loot from the all mighty vault.
Action skill: The Digi-Bike - A digistruct motorcycle that Sissel used to travel other planets with becomes his weapon of choice. You are able to drive around, in first person, and do little drive byes. Two guns can be mounted on the handle bars of the bike, only SMGs, Pistols, and Assault Rifles, or you can drive one handed and wield another weapon of your choice. The Sniping aspect comes in from a small side car attachment, where you can sit inside. Placing yourself inside this sidecar gives you bonus damage, but decreases your accuracy, also bonus zoom. (I expect BL3 to have a wider area for snipers) This skill lasts for 45-60 seconds (no definite time yet) and can be upgraded to a full one minute and thirty seconds. Cooldown is another full minute, which can be decreased to 25-30 seconds with other skills.
Skill Trees:
Throttle- Focuses on the Digi-Bike, it's duration, resistances, health, speed, and abilities. Even wheelies! (probably not)
Defiance- Focuses on Sissel's health regeneration, resistances, and survivability in combat. This is for the close up and personal people.
Trickshot- Focuses on Sniping, accuracy, "camping", even bullet spread for shotgun, to make them more accurate.
I would like some positive feedback, these are fan made of course. If you have any suggestion of the sort, feel free to post, and I'll consider it. Real quick, the reason for the Digi-Bike is because Borderlands is pretty unique of a game, so why not make it even MORE unique by giving one of the characters, a SNIPING character, a god damn motorcycle? The credit for the action skill goes to my friend, the character goes to me. We BOTH worked on this. The other three Vault Hunters will be posted in due time.
