What does this suggestion change/add/remove:

-Change how 079 get RC by having multiplier gens to be turn on for people to start hacking him it could also lock his fence gate so people have to turn on gens so the
gate unlocks
-add a defense mechanism where if 079 sees that he's getting hack he can shock people for X dmg and make them stop hacking (mid length cool-down)
-Limit how much people can RC hack 079 till like 3-5 so it stops the swarm of people hacking 079
-IF gens does not get approved have like a timer before people can start hacking 079 so they can at least do damage

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?
yes a bit what is different is that people have to turn on gens to open the fence gate and having a defense mechanism for him to defend himself
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):

- 079 can defend themself
-have a unique way to re-contain a SCP

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:

people / E11 might get annoyed that 079 takes longer to RC and that their breach might be longer

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
why it should be accepted cause it adds a way for 079 to defend themself and have a slightly longer breach but it may annoy people cause if how it limit how much people RC 079 and they have to run around to turn on gens
 
Hmmmm.

All of these ideas are a bit much, save for reducing the recontainment swarm, that feels okay.
One thing I never liked is that the only thing 079 can do to defend itself is to try and get other SCPs to its cell. I think it should be able to divert some of its accumulated resources (I haven't played the new 079 yet) to temporarily give it's RC hack +1 level.

The issue is that 079 is probably the quickest recontained PC by far, unless someone has some exact figures.
Making 079 take slightly longer to RC would be a pretty good idea regardless as it allows 079 to cause slightly more havoc.

From a perspective of a E-11

the whole point of 079 is that its a glass cannon (which falls the moment he's found out)
he already has 10 mins in which he's undetected during which its easy to cause a double breach

while it would be nice to have a notification of someone hacking you as 079 (so you can try to call another SCP to defend you )
079 shouldn't have any way of defending itself and giving him one would be unhealthy

while I'm in support of buffing 079
it still should remain defenceless

If you get caught before you're seen as breached you need to work on not getting seen. When 079 is fully breached and can breach out SCPs having a player limit doesn't make sense cause all those players can't stop 8837 and 682 rushing your CC. I'm neutral cause buffing 079 is going to be a pain on E-11 as good 079 players (with other SCPs) make it impossible to contain him.
 
- support. If you have never noticed, SCP 079 players can make site actually terrible. Most of the time, what will happen is that they will release 7722, who will sit near their CC/go that way and combatants will funnel in that hall, creating a makeshift guard that can't be considered camping because combatants are flooding it every 5 seconds, or on the chance they don't even get caught and an SCP breaches. They can release 035, which will cause more SCPs to get out. Anyway, the point of 079 is to cause as much damage as fast as possible and as silently as possible. 079 is not usually the first SCP checked. It is usually 035.

All in all, it's gonna be a - support. 079 is already REALLY good

really weird ways to buff 079 just get better at him and u can cause massive breaches anyway without needing buffs
 
079 Is a very good SCP if played right while using teamwork, its as simple as hacking out 682 or 7722, letting them guard your cell for a few minutes while you can hack out other SCP's,Hack turbines, Turn off the lights etc etc. The shocking feature would IMO make 079 overpowered. As 079 you can already hack out other SCP's to defend you.

"-IF gens does not get approved have like a timer before people can start hacking 079 so they can at least do damage"

079 Is already a silent for 10 minutes I think? Plenty of time to hack
