PvP Counter

[Crash]

Has anyone found a good counter to the Suppressing Fire/Gross Anatomy based slaughterhouse in PvP yet? That thing is madness.

[Chrisax]

Suppressive fire should be nerfed in next patch, the other one likely too.

Too bad because in PvE it was awesome, one of the best assault rifle powers.

[Crash]

I better grab my Surivability Elite active ability quickly then. I want to see how practical it is in a fluid warzone against uber power.

[Crash]

Heh. They already nerfed it.

[Bredin]

I would suggest "Active Dodge" for any counter. Its just fun. I think its new, but maybe you have seen it.
1. Tap the W key twice fast, or the S key.
2. Dodge!
3. Repeat!

[Chrisax]

You have a cooldown on dodge, can't repeat immediately. Too bad, we could have been rollerrats!


Edit: I just realized that only AO players know what a roolerrat is...



The rollerrat is a nasty, aggressive, and sometimes venomous mob in AO, that moves fast by rolling on itself.

[Crash]

The problem I was talking about involved a long range AR AOE that proc'd like crazy & could basically 1-shot kill an entire group. The range meant all dodging & stunning were useless. It was all the rage in Fusang for a while.

Man, I got my butt handed to me today in PvP. I can't imagine they nerfed anything in my build, as I'm doing my best damage ever. (thanks to that 10 gun, Chrisax)

I got mowed down left & right, even by people I used to handle pretty routinely.

Ugh.

[Chrisax]

Nope, Fuze, Crash never played AO (or at least not long?). He is a RL friend of Bredin and joined us in SWTOR.

Nice analysis of the PvP situation in MMO's, Fuze, BTW.

[Crash]

Nice PvP analysis indeed, Fuze. And no, as Chris said, I never played MMOs before SWTOR. I'm pretty MMO stoopid.

As for what happened in Fusang, I dunno. It seems like everyone got elite overnight. They must have boosted stats way the hell up or something.

Bleh you don't know?! F.A.T.E was spawned in Agartha as it's the end of beta and there was a pvp test. It's a NPC that allowed people to get all the green gear they want + to train to max rank.

That's why they can massacre you.

[Bredin]

LOL! Crash and I were in the tail end of that test and didnt know who that FATE character was. We saw him, but did not investigate. That explains a lot! I actually got 10 kills though! funny

[Crash]

We're geniuses, Bredin.

"Look at that guy's bar. He must be a GM or something."

"Reminds me of the big naked blue guy from the Watchmen."

<poof> Off to Fusang.

[Sillanto]

I used the FATE guy for the pvp testing and im actually disappointed i did, its meant that im way outleveled for my quest story and also i havent really got to explore the skills as ive got access to all (Strange as it sounds)
