Battleborn Character Predictions

That would be awesome

That’s definitely something they should look into, i’m thinking they’d be from the Eldrid faction?

I think we are forgetting the inevitable crazy clown character, like Joker from Batman, Shaco from League of Legends, etc. Though I am a bit scared how far Gearbox would go with a crazy clown knowing their humor…

i’m hoping it’s specifically this guy

(the unicorn’s just a bonus)

Well Mellka has a stealth ability… Who’s next ?

Finally saw Mad Max Fury Road! Now I want a Battleborn that wields a flame spewing musical instrument:

Naaaaw you just saw a Torgue commercial !

I am expecting maybe 5-8 characters with the ability to stealth. The reason I say this is because Orendi has a Helix pick that is meant to help her counter Stealth. If there were only 2-3 stealth characters, this Helix becomes almost always useless and defeats the purpose of the Helix system.

I was browsing through Amanda Christensen Tumbr doodles and found this interesting piece of art. I’m digging this

Assassin’s Creed also used these old fasion doctors

I’m down with this. Rogues need a healer? Right?

Seeing those pics I immediately thought of this guy:

Even though she doesn’t actually heal, I believe Reyna is supposed to fill that role with her Shield Booster (overshield) and Photonic Ward. Not that the Rogues couldn’t have a literal healer, but they do already have a support character that helps keep their teammates alive longer.

Trevor “Papa Shotgun” Ghalt is a shotgun character for the Peacekeepers.

Space cowboy is at the top of my list. With a six-shooter. I approve.

EDIT: grammar

I am hoping for some sort of Eldritch horror type character (like something out of a Lovecraft story). A star spawn that uses dark magic, tentacles, and parasites to do damage.

Kinda sounds like Orendi’s look and feel mixed with Miko’s poisoned kunai.

jmcennamo · September 10, 2015, 4:19pm

Sortta kinda. I want him to have a Lovecraft look to him. Something along the lines of Cthulhu or Yog-Sothoth but scaled down (like a deep one or a star spawn).

shuttle127 · September 10, 2015, 4:32pm

Can shake your head at me for not getting the reference and referring to Google, but if this guy gets into the game you can thank me.

jmcennamo · September 10, 2015, 4:35pm

Awesome! First off, Cthulhu Wars (and their concept artist) are awesome. Secondly, this is precisely what I was thinking, or something like this: http://www.beastsofwar.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Cthulhu-Wars-The-Great-Star-Spawn.jpg

Benefits of the guy you linked is that he’d be spitting projectiles and thus wouldn’t have any appendages taking up valuable screen real estate! Would make getting blinded not as big a deal!
