Looking for power-ups and nerfs

Help
1

Hey, looking for power-up ideas and nerfs. I would really prefer it if they were unique. The game is a free-for-all, but there is no combat, so please refrain from giving damage-related powers. The idea is that there is one player who has an item, and other players are trying to take it. Here’s what I have so far:

Buffs:

  • Temporary speed boost
  • Prop phasing
  • Magnet (increased range)
  • Builder (receive dynamic terrain)

Nerfs:

  • Slow down
  • Trip

Affects opponents:

  • Time slow
  • Respawn
  • Blackout

For the person with the item:

Buffs:

  • Shield (block opponents)
  • Off the radar (temporarily hides your marker)
  • Redirect (places a fake marker on someone else)

Nerfs:

  • The ol’ switcharoo (gives the item to someone random)

Mostly looking for more nerfs since there aren’t many, but I can still use powers if you have any. Thanks!

Buffs:

  • Teleport to random location on map
  • Place a trap
  • Teleport another player to a random location on the map

Nerfs:

  • Get Pranked
  • Instantly oof

Update:

New opponent affection:

  • Points swap (switches your points with a random player)

Person with item buffs:

  • Escape (teleport to a random location, thanks GOAT)

Person with item nerfs:

  • Loose x points

Still definitely in need of nerfs for both categories. Any ideas welcome!

Update: I’ve made some adjustments. Losing x amount of points is a nerf for all players now, and there’s a new nerf for the person with the item, where they gain points more slowly. Still could really use nerfs for the person with the item.

ummm, lets see

Buff idea - Gain 1 health per second i’ll add mor as i get ideas
Nerf idea (along the same lines)- deal only 10% damage, and lose 1 health per second

Great to see you again Fulcrum! It’s been a while.

  • A tag effect, where if you touch a player they respawn.
  • A one-time use quantum portal that will give you the item if you manage to hit the item-carrying player with it.
  • Another item that grants points like a normal item, but when it would change possession, it instead disappears.

It’d probably help to specify how the item is transferred to other players normally!

Thanks for helping. I don’t think I need any more buffs, but I’d love to get ideas for more nerfs, especially for the person with the item.

The item is taken through a pseudo tag zone so that I don’t have to use teams.

I have this problem too, so I really can’t talk, but I’ll let you know.

As I stated in the OP, I’m not looking for combat and health-related powers. Maybe it was just unclear what I was trying to say. Please take a moment to read through the entire post before giving advice. It’s a beneficial habit to get into. Still, I’d love to hear some more if you’ve got any.

You can use some of these ones I used from my medallion guide:

Bump, still looking for nerfs for the item holder.

  • Oopsies - Drop the item, and are unable to pick it up for x seconds.
  • The item turns into a fake, hologram version that doesn’t give points. The item turns back to normal once it transfers possesion.
