My Tank Cyclops Concept!
I’m not doing the whole fancy ability page mockup and I don’t know the numbers well enough so there’s no numbers but here’s the concept.
Overheat — Passive
Using your Optic Blasts charges an overheat meter, if it reaches 100% you start to take damage the longer you continue to use your optic blasts. Percentage can go up to 150% and each percent higher deals more damage to you per second until it goes below 100% again. All abilities will charge Overheat
Optic Blast — Primary
You fire a beam of kinetic energy from your eyes, the first second of each blast will apply knockback, infinite ammo
Defensive Stance — Secondary
You keep your optic blasts at the ready to shoot down any projectile that passes within range, slow charging resource meter with a short cooldown, negates all ranged damage within area while active. Animation is literally Scott shooting optic blasts at each projectile, bouncing blasts around the area if there are multiple
Optic Evasion — Ability 1
Fire your optic blasts at terrain to boost yourself around in the opposite direction. Omni-directional, short cooldown, infinite duration once activated, limited by Overheat
Optic Ricochet — Ability 2
Fire a short Optic Blast that ricochets and bounces up to 4 times auto targeting after the first bounce towards enemies or terrain within range.
Concussive Carnage — Ultimate
Scott removes his visor and blasts everything in a wide array in front of himself, dealing massive damage and knockback, clear your Overheat charge the higher your Overheat before it gets cleared the higher the damage and larger the AOE of Concussive Carnage.
Psychic Report — TEAMUP
Cyclops — Phoenix, Emma Frost
Scott, Jean and Emma have a permanent psychic bond that allows for them to act unconsciously to protect one another.
Cyclops as the team up anchor grants Phoenix and Emma Frost with Report Retort a passive ability that automatically negates a fatal hit and grants them some bonus health,
Cyclops gains a different ability based on whether Phoenix or Emma Frost is activating the team up, Emma Frost reinforces Cyclops’ Ruby Quartz Visor he only starts taking damage at 110% Overheat and higher
Phoenix’ Psychic Report with Cyclops grants him Report Resurrection upon taking fatal damage Cyclops explodes with Phoenix Flames, creating a chain reaction instantly igniting anyone within range if anyone within range has at least 1 burn counter they also detonate and Scott heals for a percentage of total damage dealt from these explosions.
Like I said this isn’t number oriented just vibes based. I would love for him to have some sort of leadership aura but I dunno what that could be. I also have other ideas for future X-Men teamups for him but he shouldn’t drop with 11 team ups.
