Traitor Detective - A Discussion

[Kotlol]

One of these discussion again, huh?

I feel like the gun is mid compared to what other jobs offer, e.g. botany deathplants or fucking ttvs.

The power from det traitor comes from being trusted in security. And that, as far as i know, is something we want to keep.

I do agree being trusted and the gun aren't the main issues with me too.

I'd say the VR goggles are just too powerful of an item on a traitor since there is no active way to counter it.
Essentially the det can go off station, mess with the records in no time and then force SEC to turn off all beepskies and unable to trust their SEC-HUDs or arrest records or lose a man fixing something that is super tedious and unfun.

The only true counter to it is someone to use the filing cabinet (if it's there) in the det's office since it's on equal speed.
But again.. that means leaving a man in the DET'S OFFICE rather then the MAIN SECURITY OFFICE. And in a lot of maps the Det's office is across the map.

I'll just keep vouching for the nerfing of the VR goggles since they make the filing cabinets OBSOLETE unless the Det is in his office (and when is he really?)

Anyway I am going in circles. Do not nerf traitor det on sec acces or guns, those aren't a problem. The problem stems from a single item that litterly gives det his own security office on demand whenever... wich is faster then any security member can work.

Most Antags take 2 officers to combat a traitor. Traitor Det takes 3 in my opinion due those vr goggles.
