Honestly, just let DARCI copy anti-champ mods when scanning champs and it'd be fine. Being a heavy sniper should be more than enough to balance out how powerful that'd be, and if not, it can be reigned in from there without needing to tack on so many additional perks.

I have a new intrinsic perk that could change darci and work. Should I explain?
-
Absolutely. Always willing to hear new ideas.
-
What you think?
-
Intrinsic perk. ( Transfer technology) when you scan a target nearby allies with non exotic sniper rifles gets a bonus precision damage on that scanned target. Secondary perk. each Final blow from allies who uses darci on your scan target will refund 1 round into your reserves.
-
So it's basically Gjallarhorn's Pack Hunter perk + Ace's old Maverick perk from D1? Could be interesting to test, though idk how potent this would be in practice.
-
Yes the primary perk is similar to ghallahorn. And as for secondary I mean I could be wrong about it. Two ppl have darci one guy gots 2 rounds left, the other got let's say 14 rounds left. The first guy with two rounds left scan the target and the other guy kills his scanned target. That target he scanned will get a round in his reserves

Edited by Emurinus: 9/3/2022 2:01:45 AMI think I get it now; it's a bit awkwardly worded though. I see a conflict here though, because you're trying to both encourage using multiple DARCIs but also non-exotic snipers, making it a bit difficult to finding a good balance between both perks.
-
Yes. If ppl want to use bonus dps choose any non exotic sniper. If ppl wants to share ammo by kills both uses darci
-
Oh, so it basically lets you choose between increasing sustained DPS vs. burst DPS then, correct?
-
Can you explain to me what is sustain dps and burst dps so I can get a better understanding? Then I'll give you my answer as you said
-
Burst DPS is basically dumping as much damage into an enemy as possible in a short time frame. If you want a good example for snipers, look at Izanagi's Burden when you use Honed Edge; you use Honed Edge x4 for an uber shot that'll put a crater in all but the beefiest enemies. Sustained DPS is the total damage you can do after dumping your entire mag and/or reserves. Whisper would be the best example of this since White Nail effectively allows you to dump all of your ammo in one sitting if given enough time.
-
Wait I have a better idea for secondary perk. Defeating a scanned target with precision final blow grants ammo to nearby allies with darci
-
Yes you are 100% correct. Just look at DARCI how I explained to you like izagni burden and whisper of the worn together
-
Now that I've gotten a better understanding of the idea then, I could certainly see it having potential. I guess it'd be pretty dependent on team composition. Going back at the earlier posts though, I'd change the secondary perks effects from on "final blow" to on "precision hit" or something similar, since there'd be only one target to kill, thus only one bullet to get back.
-
Precision hits on scanned target will refund 1 round to nearby darci allies. It'll only proc if the sniper is being used
-
I mean even if they were to do that people still wouldn’t use it, legit every heavy option is better the darci, it needs a really good buff, and a well deserved one
-
Dunno. I'd take DARCI over Salvation's Grip unless I'm trying to break game barriers. The problem with DARCI is that it's competing with Whisper and Izanagi's on both ends of the "DPS sniper" role, and any changes to that same role will only make it better than one or the other, or keep it worse; there will be no happy balance. It would be easier for DARCI to instead have a different but unique role, even if it's still mediocre, because at least then it'll have a niche to fill. Turning it into an anti-champion Borealis would be one such way, but it does not need to be the only suggestion of course.
-
Tbh with how it would struggle to kill champions and you'd be sacrificing your heavy for a meh weapon I think it having all three champ mods would be balanced unless it got an absolutely huge damage buff to go alongside that.
