Default Re: Healers

Well im a lover of both MMORPG and FPS so MMORPG it's like a heaven for me. Seeing a healer(medic) on the field of battle makes me happy, unless he doesn't heal his teammates and tries to play tough. I have a great idea for how a role of a medic can be inplaced in this game.
As "we" know in RPG games there is always a priest/monk or whatever who heals people by casting spells. Also as "we" know in FPS games there are medics or there are healing kits. If it's a fast battle like just head-on with quick respawns some little bit away from battle then medics wouldnt be very needed but still medic is a great thing. The idea of mine how healer could work in this game is: The player who is specialized in healing has some special tool in his hand which transmits some signals to the indecated players armor and those signals of "energi" repairs his armor which requires some amount of time to repair. The idea of having health sounds bad to me cause its like one shot and you are dead in real life, having armor instead of health sounds more realistic, armor is out you die. So what those energi signals will do is powering the armor up and repairing it somehow which will be considered as "healing the player" for which the healer will get points.
You might wonder wonder how the idea works with better skills in this point? Well the tool can be upgraded with better software/hardware which will be considered as skill and which you will be able to purchase or get where-ever only when you have the required amount of points in specilization of healing. Groups heals and fast heals etc. Also the upgrades will serve to make the tool operate fast which cause the minor or old heals to "cast" faster. Cast = transfer the signals to player faster and therefore heal faster. Also the tool will be having some recharge time to recharge the energi and it might run out of energi after some time and can be recharged at some points or other players may have the skill to recharge it for you.

PS: If i see my idea in any game it would be considered as Plagiarism and there will be consequences for stealing my idea.

PSS: If any gamedesigners like the idea contact me cause i got plenty of them.
