Emagging a borg should emag it's limbs

[Lefinch]

Thata also fair. My original idea has primarily been for aesthetic. Balance started being brought up so i wanted to respond with my own ideas on balance.

I think my issue with the idea if a double emag is it wouldn't be used much. And make it seem more like "this is a punishment " when i dont fundamentally think it should be viewed as a punishment just "its broken".

I don't like the idea if an emag being viewed as "worse" then a mindhack. Which i feel making it a deliberate thing it would be.

Yeah speaking to the balance I actually tend to agree myself in that it's always felt like a curiously optimised result of emagging a borg. Sure, the cyborg could turn around and beat you silly as well, but taking away and transferring the concept to a different device and making the emag's function purely a chaos-causer could work, though then I feel like it would be used primarily on borgs as a fairly annoying thing that requires a roboticist or roboticist stand-in to fix from one tap and that doesn't feel quite right either, wheras right now THEORETICALLY an emag doesn't necessarily interrupt the flow for the borg, though that in of itself never sits right with some players including myself that feel like you'd naturally be a bit nervous of a completely lawless borg going around. 

It's just a big change. I'm hoping we get some input here from some borg regulars (as well as anyone who uses the emag this way regularly) because I like the idea but don't really have a strong handle on how that being diverted to another tool or removed completely going down. As you've stated, there exists methods to get the equivalent version of a mindhack for cyborgs (which while it has some drawbacks of being reversible and detectable when you fiddle a law rack or re-link cyborgs to a different one or use syndicate frames, all come with powerful positives in their favour too that I feel balances out) but I also get the sense this is a strong selling point for the EMAG even if it's not really a reason I tend to use it for.
