  1. Kudzu: how many times have you seen kudzu ? Zapping plants with massive AoE damage: no, they do not deal massive AoE damage, just stun (and not for long) Teleport: that is pretty op yes, but only in some occasions Lube: pretty op, yes Poisonous gasses: just wear gas masks, it literally is the easiest counter and counters at 99% Healing plants: they cause addiction Killer tomatoes: weak Glowshroom: valid hunting and bannable if spread unless announced You could go on: go on ! I can go on too Endless heals: no, because addiction, unless he gets the weak heals which are meh Teleports: kinda op, but if you're unlucky, no, they're not (you could teleport a sec officer right in front of you: you don't have control of where your target teleports to) Antistuns: brain damage, good luck with that Stuns: capsaicin ? Nobody uses that, people use teslium and the like to stun and that's got its drawbacks (or hell even water + potassium)
  2. I know, I know: just order a buttload of bees, inject them with fluorosulphuric acid, and enjoy the view, as dozens of people will have their blood turned into acid and literally melting from the inside out. But I think killer tomatoes should get some love. Sure, they do some amount of damage, but even when in great numbers, they're easily dealt with: pew pew, maybe a grenade, and they're done, they're pretty squishy. What if...they get squashed when they die ? As it works now, whatever you put inside the seed doesn't count: you could put acid and hypo, no effect; you could put Phlogiston, no effect, etc. Even when butchered, the tomato slices only carry nutrients, even if you removed those nutrients with the DNA manipulator. IF they squash when they die, the reaction of whatever is inside (with separated chems of course) would occur, and you could make, for example, kamikaze tomatoes. Or maybe have them work with hypodermic prickles: if they manage to bite you, you get injected with whatever they're carrying. Or both ! There's kind of some foundations already to make them a nice weapon for traitors. Make them so they can only carry a limited amount of chemicals inside (afterall, part of their chemical capacity will be taken by...well, the ability to live, so it'd make sense) and voila, powerful yet maybe not too powerful weapon: since they've got limited chem capacity -even with densified- you could have phosphorous + potassium + sugar (to make for gaseous "manually") but then there'd be very little chem capacity for everything else -that is, the chemical weapon/s you're spreading with smoke-. UNLESS you're lucky with your strange seeds and get something like Phlogiston production, or gaseous decomp. This would also make it more of an RNG weapon rather than a go to one. Don't have gaseous or phlog ? Ok, have the smoke chems inside, but now you only have chemical capacity for maybe some acid, or put phlog chems inside and you got some little fireball: nothing too overpowered. By dealing with its chem capacity you could tune it to be powerful yet not overpowered. Different thing is if you allow it to have an effect with hypodermic prickles, but you get the idea And yes, "BoTaNy Is AlReAdY oVeRpOwErEd", but other departments are too ! And given the sillyness of plants in ss13, I think it makes sense for botania to have some of it too :D What do you think ?
  3. Hijack ? - Get amanitin from Amanita - Put it in wheat, tomatoes, or whatever goes to the chef - Watch as people die after some minutes without knowing why - Hack your vendor so that it shoots its seeds (make sure to have one seed of important stuff in your plant bag) - Blame atmos for the toxins damage if interrogated, and act innocent: oh, one amanita seed taken from the vending machine ? No I haven't used it, the machine is broken, the seed's missing because it's shooting them around (bribe other botanist with infinite knowledge of plants and chemicals, he'll like it) - Bonus points if you find gaseous decomposition: put fluorosulphuric acid, mercury, cyanide, densified and liquid contents and throw everywhere. Use wheat for maximum speed of harvest - Redtext because you forgot and ate the poisonous food
