I'd actually like to see other abilities test out first or reworks to the current abilities than just fixes
My thoughts on hypermutation was that it should offer a boost to existing upgrades in addition lowering the cost to evolve into advanced lifeforms
The trade off could be a much longer gestation time when you equip it making it not a viable option for players that run in, fight, die, repeat
It could also remove the current upgrade limits allowing players to take Carapace + Regeneration again
Lerks with Hypermutation + Camoflauge would be able to glide and stay cloaked. . .etc. . .
My thoughts on Feign Death were that it wasn't viable at all spawning in a clone, cloaking the user, and then letting them bolt immediately if they saved energy for leap/blink/charge/etc. . .
I'd like to see Feign Death changed to a defensive upgrade that keeps the player alive longer by making them harder to hit
A hallucination that creates mirror copies that stay close to the user or a blur effect like the fade has while they are blinking could go a long way
If blur is the option the upgrade could make the <u>alien immune to the marines scanner</u> since it's creating such a distortion
The hallucination to be balanced would probably have trigger once an alien takes damage for the first time and be on a long cooldown before it triggers again
Hallucinations would remain after the primary alien dies though making it ideal for group fights with many aliens using it
