It's not how aliens should really be played. I'd rather see aliens themselves buffed.\r\n\r\nHere's some ways I think we can approach this (presuming we just nerf facehuggers to not be able to rip off rig helmets):\r\n - Make the aliens we have more resilient by increasing their maximum health (except maybe queenie)\r\n - OR add third-stage aliens for hunter and sentinel\r\n\r\nNot sure what a third stage hunter would do, but I'd like a third stage sentinel that acted primarily as a beefy bodyguard for the queen."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/d3athrow/vgstation13/issues/comments/185361466","html_url":"https://github.com/d3athrow/vgstation13/issues/8295#issuecomment-185361466","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/d3athrow/vgstation13/issues/8295","id":185361466,"user":{"login":"uazuaz","id":6170726,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/6170726?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz","html_url":"https://github.com/uazuaz","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/uazuaz/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-02-17T19:22:14Z","updated_at":"2016-02-17T19:22:14Z","body":"i don't like how the \"spit neurotoxin\" option works; choosing your target from a name list is awful, especially if you don't know who is who.\r\nit could be something similar to the wizard's \"lighting\" spell: the \"spit neurotoxin\" option could appear as an icon on top of the screen, you click it to prepare it, then you click your target.\r\nall other usual alien actions as plant weeds, create resin wall, nests, etc, could be added as icons as well."}}
