Suggestion: Give Jawas access to the cycler rifle and grapple hook
Addons Needed (workshop link): None
Reason: Currently the Jawa is by far the weakest of the neutral jobs, the wookie and droid provide utility in the form of medical aid and repairs. The wookie has access to a unique weapon (the bowcaster) while the bounty hunter can use a variety of powerful weapons on top of a jetpack. The jawa has access to dual DT-12s and fists as its only form of offense. In events the jawa's 200 HP makes the fists usless and the DT-12s fall short compared to the weapons of the other classes.

Because of this imbalance it is clear that Jawas need access to greater firepower and some form of mobility to counteract it's low HP. The cylcer rifle is a single shot 'sniper rifle' with decent damage (not as high as GC's single shot rifle) and considering that Jawas would easily have access to this rifle due to their relations with the tusken raiders it also makes sense lore wise. The grapple hook seems logical for a glass cannon and would still provide less mobility and firepower than the bounty hunter - lore wise it would make sense for small creatures living on large sand crawlers to make use of grapple hooks for ease of mobility / repairs.

Overall, I hope these changes will see Jawas used in events rather than being a class religated to mucking around during downtime while also not making them stronger than either the other neutral jobs or the various clone sniper roles.
 
Jawas are meant to be annoying, to get arrested, they arnt meant to be a combative or even used during events
 
while we're at it we should give jawa the EMP ion 😁
 
i mean if we added like an actual drugs addon where troopers can buy spice from jawas secretly then that could give them a bit of RP other than tresspass and throw shit

but no more guns
 
Yeah, didn't realise this would be as offensive a suggestion as it apparently is. It seems odd to have a role whose only purpose is minging but if that is what people want it to be then fair enough lol.
 
honestly the bount hunter is really solid, I used that as my baseline and just ensured that the jawa would still be weaker in all aspects
 
I rate it!
Give this guy staff as well while we’re at it
 
Honestly tho as one of the only people that actually plays Jawa (as sad as it is) I really dont think it needs any sort of buff or changes as it just isn't that needed in any way, I do remember makin a suggestion on enjiin forums to lower the hp because it had the same hp as the CTs and i dont think a 3 foot 8 idiot wrapped in table cloth should have the same hp as a soldier. In regards to the extra weapons it really isn't needed and I dont think the Republic would allow the Jawa to roll round the base with more firepower than it needs to have there, a ghook would be a nice thing to have i guess but again not overly necessary to have tbh.

I'd say they would be fun to use but not really needed (please give me a ghook tho)

Don’t worry Randoh, we’ll make a Jawa MCO job just for you to use, it’ll have access to a Ghook and much more!

On behalf of the MVG Administrative Team this suggestion has been Denied

We feel that jawas are currently in a fine place on the server at the moment and do not need this kind of change, if you want to set up shops and such with passive RP you are free to do so with asking a staff member and such.
