Engineering IdeaFollow

So far all combat pets have been small in size and do mediocre damage. How about a huge one ? Similar in size as an Infernal, last 1-2 minutes,,do similar damage also and when done break down and be lootable like a target dummy?

Engineering needs a kick,,,class specific goggles are great,,just seems Blizz is way behind.

Hmmm... how about a War Golem? Fitting in lore and VEY similar to the Infernal in scale and power, only difference is the category (Elemental/Demon (not sure) and Mechanical)

That would work,,,,,since it's an Elemental/Mech would require motes/Primals to construct.

Come on, you already get an Explosive Sheep. There is no more after that. Smiley: bowdown

When I said that, I meant that the Infernal is either Demonic or Elemental and that the Golem was pure Mechanical.

actually those mechanical war golems arent a bad idea. Would be epic though and cost a ****h and a half to make.

well considerings its a war golem and mechanical of all things, you just have to take a look at westfall to see what hte major failure can be.

Engineering always has some failure concept. So the war golem in this case probably has a chance [just like the infernal] to turn on its master, or just turn on everyone. Or explode after a while doing huge AOE damage to anyone around.

How about the abilities for it? A Warrior's Pummel sounds fitting, and maybe...

A failure... an AoE explosion on death? A nice ability for against powerful foes, AND a drawback in the form of early death, like an Infernal breaking free...

Of course the AOE will effect everyone, you and enemies.

One moment your cherishing your war golem as it pummels horde alongside your allies and next moment everyone dies in a large explosion.

No their already dead.

And your talking like an infernal is summoned at the snap of your fingers.

Read up on how their summoned. In the end they turn on you anyway.

ANd it doesnt matter. Anyone near the golem is dead [wide range explosion].

Though i can see the advantage of having one of these in a capture point in a bg. Specially if it explodes.
