Give tyrants a armored back that reduces damage by 30% As the opposite to humans where the back is less armored.

I not only like the idea gameplay wise, I also like it on the lore side of it.

That's a fine buff but it does not solve the problem that the Tyrant has a lackluster principal design. It needs features, not (just) stats.

Gireen commented 2 years ago

Well it solves or improves the situation with the related problem. The tyrant being big and easy to hit. A back armor makes the escape easier but forces players to expose the weaker front if they want to attack.

Different problems and ideas should be discussed in dedicated idea/problem issues if i may remember you on your own words 😉

Fair enough, I did not look up the referenced issue and thought it was "Tyrant as a class is useless". (Which to my defense is a mantra at this point.)

Sorry to disappoint you :) No, I don't think tyrant is useless: it makes a decent door, unlike barricades it's hard to jump over a tyrant unpunished :D More seriously, what I wanted to do with linked issue is to provide the actual numbers, to hopefully be able to have a discussion with good starting bases on how to try to improve it (yet I do not propose anything, because really, I'm unsure about how to improve on it)

Why not an advanced Tyrant with this armor? (and, slower to move too?)
