So basically, we know how annoying spammers are, and we all want pelican to nerf spamming. This would break a bit of game balancing though. My proposal is that if you get hit multiple times, the player would gain “Adrenaline stacks.” Adrenaline stacks would do many different things.

1. Bow 2 spamming, 2X: 1 adrenaline stack, 10 Iframes, 5 speed, 2 health regen, 0 loading speed

2. Bow 1 spamming, 3 arrows: 1 adrenaline stack, same as before.

4. Melee spamming with bladed poke 3X: 2 adrenaline stacks, 10 Iframes, 5 speed points, 3 health regen points, 1 loading speed

5. Any melee that can kill with 2 shots without being charged (example, godendag) 1X: 3 adrenaline, 15 Iframes, 7 speed points, 5 health regen points, 2 loading speed

6. Blunt light spamming: 4 adrenaline, 15 Iframes, 10 speed points, 7 health regen points, 2.5 load speed

7. Bladed heavy spamming: 5 adrenaline. 20 Iframes, 15 speed points, 10 health regen points, 3 reload speed

Some things to note 

1. Speed will cap at 30 including armor

2. Health regen cap at 25

4. Reload speed caps at 7

5. Hitting someone with bloodlust negates the effect 5% per bloodlust, up to 50%

6. Claus 5 does not apply if the player switches to bow instantly after hit so godendag and the trident are safe

7. Damage protection gives a 2% bonus to these stats for every point of dmg prot. 

8. Each point of stun on the attackers bow negates the speed buff by 10%

9. The stacks are applied instantly when hit, and decrease by 1 every kill, 2 for killing the person who applied the stacks, and once every 2 seconds.

10. Once the stacks are at 0, adrenaline can not be triggered for another 30 seconds, unless given 15 seconds of no contact with the enemy, or if 4 or more stacks are applied.

11. Contrary to the name, stacks can’t stack, so if you have 4 stacks, you have to wait for the stacks to run out to get applied with 3 or below adrenaline. 

12. Travel speed decreases the duration that the enemy has adrenaline has by 20%

13. Iframe calculations are done at 60 fps

14. Bow 3 gives 1 adrenaline stack

15. Bow 4,5,6 do not give adrenaline

16. When killed, all adrenaline stacks are removed
