Syndicate Rancher needs some love!

[UrsulaMejor]

Wait, ranchers still have no unique traitor items a over a year after being added? I thought zewaka said that any new roundstart jobs being added needed to have traitor items. They didn't give rancher special treatment because it was an admin's pet project, did they?

Putting aside the eye-rollingly bad faith tone behind this message, the reason why ranchers didn't launch with traitor items is because the job, itself, provides its own traitor items.

You got your EMP eggs, your eggs that let you breath fire, your eggs that let you pass through any door without having to hack or open it, eggs that give you vampire glare, chickens that cluwne people, your 10 damage per hit raptor posse, your mime-cubes that let you trap people into invisible boxes you can still hit them through, your near-instant-diabetic-coma candy eggs, etc. etc. etc.

They don't strictly need traitor items to have a unique job-traitor identity. The rancher traitor kills you with eggs and chickens. Soon, they'll kill you with sheep too.

That said, I think that further traitor item suggestions/code that focus on that identity are cool. T help everyone focus their ideas: they're less a "cowboy" and more of a "monster tamer". Items that build off of, improve, or make more lethal their flock are good ideas.
