Suggestion for firing beams. Make them straight and fast, or controllable and slow!

I think beams should be able to be fired in two different ways.

1.Beam moves at a faster pace but it is very linear with only the ability to move slightly (as to prevent missing by a matter of a few feet) , making them better for long range. fast attacks.

2. The traditional method.

These two could be used by either using mouse 1 + 2, or just mouse 1 when charging these attacks.

Or in our case. full charge = faster with less manevering and minimum charge is slower with a better curve.

What about the damage then? Will a full charged beam deal more damage than a minimum charged beam?

Yea itll allso have a bigger blast radius.

We kinda made it a tradeoff. More power/speed against faster charge/meneverability.

Hmm.. does this mean.. that if you swoop against the beam with high speed you get more damage?
No, it will hit you same if you are standing or moving. How much it will hit you, depends on the beam itself.
