I enjoy how Blizzard is willing to take cliché roles and have them act in a crazy different way. In Overwatch there are currently two builders that both act as defenders but can also act aggressively - if they have time to prepare without being harassed. I think there is room in the game to have a builder that is more assault-inclined but can still act very defensively. This hero should have a moderate learning curve but is very rewarding for high-skill players. Enter:
Sperry Hewitt, the Drone Builder
Role: Builder, Assault, Support
Health: 200
Movement Speed: Average
Weapon: Gauss Rifle
Primary attack: Charged Shot
Hold the primary fire button to charge the Rifle's capacitors and release to fire. The longer the button is held, the more damage and range the weapon has. Total charge time is 3 seconds. At 0 seconds, the weapon does 25 damage at short range with massive damage dropoff. At 3 seconds, the weapon damage increases to 100 with very little damage dropoff. Firing between 0 seconds and 3 seconds deals damage and has damage dropoff proportional to the charge time. The Rifle is hitscan and has a magazine of 10 shots. After shooting, the weapon must cooldown for .5 seconds before being fired again.
Secondary attack: Overload
Pressing the secondary fire button charges the rifle for 1 second, then causes the Gauss Rifle to become overcharged and fire rapidly for 50 damage until the magazine is empty. The shots have very poor accuracy and have high damage dropoff.
First ability: Drone Tower
Place a Drone Tower. The drone tower has 150 health and must be either hidden or protected. Once placed, the tower spawns a Drone (more in a bit) every 5 seconds to a maximum of 7. After being destroyed, the ability has a 10 second cooldown. Pressing the ability button again while the tower is active will redirect the Drones to the target or the target location. If the Drone tower is destroyed, all Drones will die.
Drones have 50 health and fire a short range slow-traveling pulse shot at a target for 25 damage. Drones have very poor lateral move speed, but have incredible forward move speed and acceleration. When a drone acquires a target it attacks in a strafing maneuver: accelerating rapidly at the target and firing, slowing down after passing and turning around to strafe again. If there are no valid targets, the drone will patrol the area.
Second ability: Shield Drone
Sperry has a Shield Drone that follows him. If it is destroyed,

I made screenshots to make sure it wasn't just my bad memory of the old price. It seems to happen in almost 100% of cases now, while last year it never happened. And yes I do pay attention to VAT and shipping address, but the price increases of roughly 10-30% are regardless of these factors and even happen when I browse with VPN turned on.. Anyone else have the same experience?
This Feature Request seems so obvious to me, I'm surprised it's not in use already. And so easy to do :)
There are (broadly) two types of users: those who always have it 'transmitting', and those who keep on airplane mode all the time, unless they charge & sync.
For many of us, we wake up, put on charger. It automatically switches off airplane, then syncs. But then I have to manually turn on airplane mode again.
There should be an Auto-Airplane setting in the app, that as soon as it finishes syncing after being put on the charger, it goes straight back to airplane mode.
Pleeeeeeaase?
Could you build a device that not only folds a paper airplane but also launches it when finished? I'd love to see you guys make one. I hope this doesn't get lost among the other amazing ideas. Lol

It's truly amazing how technology is catching up to the futuristic world of eighties science fiction. Bonus scene: oh-la-la.
Hi all.
Is there a way I can set my PT to enter airplane mode at specific times of the day? Perhaps with a watchapp something similar? I only see the option for quiet time, but I think it just disables audio notifications and vibrations, but it still maintains the BT connection.
I use Tasker (on Android) to set my phone to flight mode at a specific time at night. Doing so disables all radio communication, including BT. I would like to have my PT switch to flight mode at the same time. I've read that it's a bigger battery drain for the PT to be constantly searching for the phone, compared to having it already paired. I could be wrong on this though ...
Anyone here doing something similar with their phones and watches?
