Hey everyone,
With the current movement meta, the Grappling Hook has become incredibly strong for aggressive rushes and vertical pushes. To address this, I designed a complete concept for a counter-tactical Field Upgrade: The G-H-S-L (Grappling Hook Spring Lock).
The goal was to create a balanced, area-denial device that fits seamlessly into the Warzone sandbox without breaking the game loop.
Key Specs & Balancing:
• Protection Radius: 15.24m (50 ft) — perfect for holding roofs or windows.
• Interceptions: 3-4 charges before depletion (with a clear Green/Yellow/Red LED status indicator for counterplay).
• Duration: 60-90 seconds to prevent infinite camping.
• Counterplay: Can be destroyed by bullets, explosives, and Melee Hits (high risk, high reward for attackers). It does not block regular ziplines or ladders.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the numbers and the implementation! Check it out.
