Here you have mine :P


--- Quote ---Dodger: (adv., req. HR2, maxlvl 2) Increases your chance to dodge missile/melee attack by x% (to be determined).
This got two votes. Any additional comments on it? Might go hand in hand with a revision of Hellrunner trait to make the combination more balanced.

--- End quote ---
I'd make this more along the lines of a 1 level only trait that would give you the same amount of dodging you have on hellrunner even when standing still, firing, etc.


--- Quote ---Basher: (adv., req. SoaB2, maxlvl 2) 10%/level chance to cause double damage with weapons up to chaingun.
There's still some controversy about it. Could be of some use for AoMr challenge and Shotties.

I personally don't like it. Chance traits is increasing luck, and to get some planning ahead you'd need something more static.

However, the main idea is nice. Perhaps add something along the lines of decreasing firing time for multi-fire weapons (chaingun and plasmagun). It would add damage (potentially) and it would make it both different and another trait route similar to shottyman for shotguns. Note that this has been suggested before and not by me, I am just saying it again because I like the idea.


--- Quote ---Kicker: (adv., req. Fin2, maxlvl 2) Knockback effect of weapons increased by 1/level(?).
Can be useful at keeping the demons at bay, or knocking powerful enemies out of LOS and then cutting the tail.
--- End quote ---
I find this trait pretty useless. It's not giving the player any real advantage, and I think all traits should be meaningful.


--- Quote ---Ammo stacker: (trait, maxlvl 3) Increases the amount of all ammunition in one inventory stack by 10%/level.
Borrowed this from this RFF. Allows to carry more ammo while keeping precious inventory slots free for other items.
--- End quote ---
This could be cool if done correctly and perfectly balanced.


--- Quote ---Anatomist: (trait, maxlvl 2/3?) Decreases chance of bleeding and bleeding damage, increases chance/damage caused to monsters.
This can be a useful trait, though perhaps the bleeding should be made more deadly to balance it.

--- End quote ---
I like this idea, under the same conditions as the previous trait, and if killing monsters by bleeding would give you exp.

Well, those were my 0.02€ :P

Khashishi:
I don't know why people are thinking kicker is useless. To me, it sounds overpowered! What is the best thing about the rocket launcher? It clears out the enemies so you can hit them again when they pop into view. Imagine taking on the wall without the kickback effect.

another advanced trait idea: piercing shot (req sob2?). each level lets you shoot through one additional enemy with guns. Doesn't work with rocket launcher or BFG or melee (and I think shotguns already pierce so it might do nothing)

TFoN:
I've already suggested this one in the Doom Wiki:

Fireballs - should be unlockable, but I'm not sure by what... "You've an ego like hell and the weapons to match! Your massive will alone increases the blast radius of your rocket-launchers by 1 space for each level of this trait. But be careful not to get ahead of yourself and blow yourself away..." I guess damage will be sorted out by the same equation but for a larger radius, not changing damage at the center, but making it near the center a little higher than before. I don't think this trait should affect BFGs, as they don't make FIREballs :)

Brewtal Legend:
Chainsaws & Boomsticks. (Probably a better name for it could be suggested)

This trait would allow you to dual wield a shotgun and a chainsaw ala evil dead/ army of darkness.
It would require shottyman and brute lvl 1 maybe.
You can attack a enemy in melee range with the chainsaw at the same time you fire the shotgun.

Supernaut:
What about:

Vampirism  (maybe max 3) - With each trait you receive 5% damage you deal to enemies. (The amount could be tweaked)

You say that SoaB is useless but nobody mentioned that Juggler is useless ;) .

Fast as Hell - Every action you do is x% faster then normally (after hellrunner lvl 2)

Stratego (i didn't thought much about the name ;) ) - the effects of coward and aggresive setting are x% bigger.

Telekinetic Mind - You can choose where to teleport when entering a teleport on map OR using the phase device. Only 1 level for this trait.
