So fallen wanted us to think about new enemies. I managed to have one idea while paddling along these lines.
Take a dog. Wire him with a lot of explosives. Then, if he finishes the round adjacent to a character, and his trainer is still alive, the trainer can detonate the dog. Boom. 1 dead dog, but a huge amount of damage to the target.
Thus if you see a dog with explosives strapped to his back, you need to either kill the dog, or kill the gang boss to neutralise this threat.
But I fear that this gets us into the territory of 'area effect weapons' -- and once that becomes possible, well, this isn't exactly the first thing on the list. But this was the only new idea I came up with along these lines, sorry.

I don't like the idea of doing it with dogs ... but suicide DRONES is a fantastic idea

I felt kind of bad about the poor doggies as well .... But I have been rather obsessed with dogs since the new female 2 char came out ... This is a much nicer idea.

I think the natural counter to the Drone Master character class is some type of Cyber-Dog or Bio-Badger Master

Shouldn't the next monster just be the cyber-badger?

Maybe it is time to switch forum avatar images. Before, since I was such a heavy 'use the gloves' advocate, showing me with a gun seemed disengenuous. But after 2 months of female 2 who cannot use brawling equipment, it could be sincere.
And no more Wind in the Willows -- which is completely unrelated, by the way, this art is just by somebody who likes drawing animals in clothes -- questions.
We'll see how I feel like it tomorrow, or rather much later today given that it is 02.45 here now.

Looks very good to me.
And, as for Female 2 -- I like challenges, and she most certainly is challenging. But she is very much a character I have to play completely outside of what is my now natural style. It will be terrific to have a new character to play whose challenges do not run 'against the grain' so to speak.
I can hardly wait (but will have to).

I like the look of the new Male II.
I found Female II not nearly as rough as Gravling did. I suspect it's because her enhanced DEX lets me buy stealth incredibly cheaply, and very early, which results in me escaping from getting into more fights than I'm normally used to.
Having said that, she's rough in a fight, not at all my play-style for fighting. (I'm also a "punch 'em out" kinda player)
