Suggestion description

Body Drag is a survivor skill that enables survivors to drag dead bodies at the cost of 2 AP per block. This skill will be a Misc. skill and cost 100 XP. It is very effective during large scale sieges. Zombies killed during sieges need only wait a few hours for their AP to recharge, then they stand up and get right back to attacking the building. This skill will make sieges more even for zombies and survivors.

To use the skill, survivors will first have to be in the SAME block as a dead body. After clicking "Drag Body" they will now be holding onto the body. Clicking "Drag Body" does not take an AP, however, moving from block to block with one takes 2. If you want to let go of a body, there will be a "Drop Body" button.

To make things fair:

• Only bodies that have been KILLED, and NOT those that have been revived, can be dragged.
• Bodies can only be dragged three blocks. After that, anyone else, even those who never dragged the same body, will see a message saying "You pull as hard as you can at the body's wrist, but it will not budge." It will waste an AP.
• It costs 2 AP per block, which means it will cost just as much AP for a zombie without Lurching Gait to walk back to the original block as the survivor will be cost dragging the body.
• Bodies cannot be dragged inside buildings, or a message will appear saying "You cannot drag the body inside."
• Picking up or Dropping a body does not waste an AP.

Suggestions are much appreciated.

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Spam - Pied Piper skill, and could be used for greifing. Please use Developing Suggestions in future. Linkthewindow  Talk  03:42, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
2. Spam - As above. I also think that better reasoning than "it won't budge" is needed as to why you can't drag the body further than three blocks.--SirArgo ^Talk 03:56, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
3. Spam - as Link. Liberty 04:17, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
4. Spam - Sounds awfully familiar, and pied piper skills are a no-go. --ZsL 07:04, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

   Dupe – Pretty much a functional dupe of Suggestion:20070810 New Ability:Body Drag, down to the name. Albeit this one has more implementation details, the basic mechanics are still a dupe, and I'm sure I've seen it on Developing Suggestions as well. Changed my mind, IMO this is different enough not to be a dupe. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 08:08, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

5. Spam - as above, and additionally - it's a pure waste of pro survivor AP. There are 10 times more efficient siege defence tactics than headshoting them... --Nevin McAvoy^(talk) 08:10, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
6. Spam - kill them... then leave them the fak alone -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 08:20 14 January 2009 (BST)
