Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - rulib - 02-22-2017

Today I went through and made suggestions threads for stuff that I feel like I abuse every round:
easily accessible industrial space armor,
space walking in just a winter coat,
using .00001u thermite to melt rwalls,
breathing all round on an emergency oxygen tank

Those were my basically every round guilty pleasures that I would gear up with inside the first minute, what about you guys?

edit: plasmaglass spears!

Max-Cap Canister Bombs.

Oh, wait, you mean every round.

Strangely, I can't bring anything to mind.

Stealing flashes to robust would-be traitors.

Gotten some tasty salt from people who get angry after you take their shit when they try to kill you.  I'm a cop you idiot!


RE: Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - Grayshift - 02-22-2017

I'm guilty of those, sans winter coats and spears.

Using cosmetic achievement rewards to disguise my easy industrial armor for fashion reasons.
Teslabuddy bodyguard.
Various ways of completely neutralizing a changeling sting.
My guiltiest is the network diagnostics cart though.

I'm the semi-reformed powergamer on the admin team. I know your tricks.

suicide

I get bored if someone doesn't kill me within the 20-30 minutes, so I just kill myself and hang out with the boos.

Power-game items I grab every round: Toolbelt w/ tools, fire extinguisher, internals, a hat and eyewear. Why? Because I hate being trapped, I'm always on fire, I can never breathe, and I like to look .•°¤*(¯`★´¯)*¤° ąʍąƶɨɲǥ °¤*(¯´★`¯)*¤°•..

Hacking into everywhere. I try to avoid looting security these days, but give me ten minutes as a job with nothing better to do and I will be breaking into everywhere and stealing everything not nailed down.

Medkit.

I always have a use for it, whether I use it on myself or on others.  Regular medkits are pretty good stuff for most damage and allow you to come back from a fair bit of damage.  Also a crowbar, because screw getting stuck.

Banana peel too!


RE: Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - NateTheSquid - 02-22-2017

i only do stuff every clown round, everything else varies. i grab a gas mask from fire closets/cabinets, the santa hat, banana peel in the clown quarters, and from the banana you spawn with (just in case) then in my funny pack, fire extinguisher, 2 medkits. jetpack/big oxygen tank on my back, and when I can, industrial armour.

I pride myself on being a robust clown


RE: Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - ZeWaka - 02-22-2017

I'm a non-reformed powergamer, unlike Grayshift.

I carry a special syringe to negate neurotoxin.
NetDiag cart every daaay.
Utility belt (or sec belt, depending) filled with a mechanical toolbox + multitool + igniter
Beaker of thermite + clf3
Medkit with atropine + calomel autoinjector.
Two emergency oxygen tanks, superpressurized.
Always have my slots filled with the best ie: boxing/insulated gloves, magboots/sandals, gas mask, engineering helm, sechuds(or regular sunglasses), and armor vest or similar.
At least two guns or ranged weapons, along with a baton/guaranteed stun, with a melee weapon that bleeds.

I also enjoy framing the AI by hooking up signalers to electrify and bolt doors. Extremely high success rate.

You gotta

Oh boy. I have WAY too many to count.   it's okay, he'll be up again before you know it 
I guess I'll start with my favorites.
  • Throwing / dropping banana peels in front of people walking. (Even better, plasma glass shards.  Demonology 101 )
  • Stealing the barman's glassware box, filling the glasses with 10 cryostylane, and throwing them at people that even mildly inconvenience me.
  • Rigging up remote signalling devices to the "electrify door" wires for airlocks at a department I don't like, and sending a signal every once and a while.
  • Using telescience to send piss/blood/vomit smoke beakers to the workplaces of crewmembers.
  • Activating the Hemera VII nuke to scare people on #1. 
  • Annoying the ever-living FUCK out of people. 
  • Tossing metal foam grenades into people's workplaces.
  • Disarm intent.
  • Using the AK-774 / Riot launcher loaded with 40mm HE shells when the shuttle docks at CentComm.  :tfrxmas: 
  • Rathen's Secret / Magic Missile + Cluwne or Polymorph. (OR BOTH)
There's probably more things I love to do, ( evil for evil's sake )
 but I can't think of all of them right now.

Most of my shifts, I take the cart and hack everything. The spare is mine. Then I get oxygen and fuck off to space for more loot.


RE: Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - Tarmunora - 02-22-2017

Oh boy, a thread to confess our very own powergaming secrets in...
  • Debris field loot. There's just SO MUCH of it (RobustSEC, .308 rounds, artifacts)
  • Net Diag cart is awesome, especially if you do some fun in tech storage to nab the headpass
  • NASSA suit full time, with NT-SO armour on top for added robust
  • The glorious voltron from locked crates, and if I can get enough cash, buy command armour
  • Chocolate smoke pills to counter changelings at the first ling sighting
  • Mech boots are personally the best boots possible, just buy the ore from a certain merchant
  • Plant a toolbox or 2 with a full set of tools, including a multitool, around the station so you can always hack things

I've never bothered learned how to be a packet turbonerd. Instead, I've learned how to fuck everything ever up with chemistry.


RE: Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - Roomba - 02-23-2017

I've seen all those 'nerf everything' threads. Not falling for this one. crossarms


RE: Guilty Pleasures - What do you abuse? - Tom Clancy's Gay Ghost - 02-23-2017

Piss extinguishers.
