Abe was doing 300 damage and had problems with his rage. I also noticed and others noticed that his sounds were quiet. I fixed both of those problems hopefully!
Mega huge thanks for Chairius for config debugging.

Nerfed again: lowered his speed a bit, less hp, no more knockback resistance on his bat

Btw I never mentioned why these changes happened.
  • People said that Abe was a better Doomguy. I don't want that to be the case. Doom has a health formula of 800+n while nerfed Abe now has 700+n. I think this is fair because of his better utilities on his rage so his health is noticeably lower.
  • The damage was obvious, he shouldn't be doing 300+ damage. Its nice to play as but its dumb to play against. A fully headed Demo knight shouldn't be punished for existing
  • Speed was an issue because he starts to become a little too fast at low health. At that point he can chase down anyone and everyone until they run out of health or ammo. His speed should be at 330 which is in the realm of Globama and Radigan.
  • I think the knockback resistance was something cool to have but it made his rage unnecessary when fighting sentries.
Hopefully this is a good balance for the character and make Abe a little harder to win but not unusable

update again again: http://www.mediafire.com/file/u2y5vcyhvu6n9ws/v1.6_New_%27n%27_Tasty_Boss_Abe.rar/file
I know this was approved but he wasn't updated yet. I think the config fucked up so I remade the config again. Tested it again, and did some changes again. There's no errors in my part of my server so it should be about fine.

Sounds now have _1 next to them because old sounds don't get replaced when updated. Telling people to delete their old sounds is a pain. The simple solution was to make them download it again. To bottiger, just delete all the old sound files and replace them with the new ones. Also I added 1 more sound when Abe destroys buildings.
Health is back again to 700+n. I think i'm going a little too harsh with the nerfs.

That should be all until some other fixes or until I decide to make v2.0 with the scrapped ideas i had for him
