Requesting feature added to Fujin and raijin to be able to climb up any wall or surface. This would open up heigh vantage points and newer tactical positions on maps. Since they are "spider like", why not allow them more surfaces to climb.
Just for fun...
If you were scaling a vertical wall, would your perspective of the game rotate 90 degrees because your now looking Sideways??
Could you crawl up a tunnel wall, onto the ceiling and hang upside down?

Love the idea, however I feel there might be a bit of abuse potential if you can climb too high: so far as I know, you can't fire directly above your bot. Your target lock disappears when the angle becomes too great, meaning your weapons won't track up any higher. With the right knowledge of the map, you could find an ambush spot that would be almost impossible to extract you from: long range weapons wouldn't have great lines of fire into the spot, and anything close can't fire at that angle. Add in a shield, especially an ancile, and it would be almost broken in my opinion.
One thing to note is that this is already possible on certain maps. It might be a glitch, but I've seen spiders climbing occasionally. I know it is (or was) possible to climb one or two of the buildings on dead city. Not sure if that has changed, but as recently as yesterday I saw a Raijin sitting on top of the protruding cliff/wall that obscures the line of sight between the spawn point and the beacon to the right, on the Moon map.

If you add the ability to climb walls, then I want the ability to blow the walls up, too. Make Nashorn and Kang Dae useful again -- let 'em go Reagan and tear down those walls!!
