<div class="IPBDescription">in or out?</div> i was playing on a server recently that had lerk bite as a secondary slot1 weapon. it seemed moderately powerful, less than skulkbite maybe. i miss the lerkbite and enjoyed playing with it.. however...

do you think its unfair though, being that lerks would have comparatively powerful melee and long range weapons?

    There was a long discussion on this in the Suggestion and Ideas forum. To sum it up, someone ranted on how they loved it and loved fantastic arial battles. Then some person with a higher authority (no not divine silly) came along and said that the lerks role must be supportive and everything must be aimed towards the lerk's supportive nature.

    Personally I love plugins of any kind, especially the Super Lerk plugin. Strengthing the lerk is a plus for me.

    As the author of that plugin, I can tell you that it's not less powerful than the skulk bite: it <b>is</b> the skulk bite. Flayra removed the bite2gun, so I had to do the equivilent of "give weapon_bitegun" whenever players evolve to lerk. As for it being unfair... I wrote it because it was a challenge, not because I thought it was needed. It's fun, but I don't think it's what the lerk was intended to be.

    It is.... take a look at some 1.0 lerking demos where Dean was the lerk. They were quite insane, to say the least.

    i played on a server with that mod too. it was absouletly fantastic! u could glide in with celerity and kill a few rines then fly out. teh only problem was that when u upgrade u cant biute anymore <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
