George Moros Area 514 301	Posted - 2014.02.02 07:39:00 - [1] - Quote I've read on several topics here on forums, as well as on some (unofficial) game guides that headshotted mercs cannot be revived by nanite injectors. However, I was just in a battle where I headshotted a redberry, and the redberry next to him revived him with an injector. Is this a bug, or is the "headshotted mercs can't be revived" just someone's wishful thinking that got accepted as fact? Pulvereus ergo queritor.
Arkena Wyrnspire Fatal Absolution 8816	Posted - 2014.02.02 07:45:00 - [2] - Quote Overwhelming damage or explosives prevent you from being triaged. I think it's simply the case that when you headshot someone you tend to come into the 'overwhelming damage' category. ZATARA CARRIES US ALL Lenin of the glorious armoured revolution MAG Raven

Michael Arck Onuoto Uakan Huogaatsu 3001	Posted - 2014.02.02 08:05:00 - [4] - Quote Apparently there are cases where folks has been revived even after being headshotted. I think I might have witness this myself but I'm not sure. I need to find out for certain Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. For the State!! [email protected]
Miokai Zahou The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 126	Posted - 2014.02.02 08:14:00 - [5] - Quote I can confirm that head shots mercs will still give them the ability to revive... I've seen this happen many, many wonderful times because it gave me another chance to snipe the target down and the medic too. Oh the wonderful hate mails.... Noob isn't really a status, it's the online equivalent of a 5-year old calling you a poopy fart head.

I think it's simply the case that when you headshot someone you tend to come into the 'overwhelming damage' category. Definitely this. You can also unload a lot of ammo into the downed body to kill them off properly before they get revived (but don't, it's a waste of ammo, downing them and the medic once they get revived is faster).

I thought I seen it happen before but I'm not sure. I haven't watched the targets to see it play out. I usually kill the rushing reviver. I'll make sure to pay attention next time I play.

RedZer0 MK1 The Generals General Tso's Alliance 168	Posted - 2014.02.02 08:25:00 - [8] - Quote Head shot the same guy three times in a row. Had to kill the medic to end the loop, kinda felt bad for the guy. Kind of.
Komodo Jones Chaotik Serenity 404	Posted - 2014.02.02 08:34:00 - [9] - Quote As far as I've seen a clone can be revived so long as there hasn't been too much damage to the corpse, headshots don't necessarily deal enough damage. Explosions or excessive force seem to be exclusions to this, mass drivers, forge guns, and grenades will terminate bodies, but It's definitely possible to come back after a headshot, just not too many of them. This is a signature. You're now reading it. You may now reply to my post.
Lynn Beck Granite Mercenary Division Top Men. 642	Posted - 2014.02.02 08:40:00 - [10] - Quote Apparently the clone inside has 200 HP, independent from shield/armor damage modifiers. I've headshotted heavies that had like 709armor, obly to see them picked up.(charge sniper) I've also headshotted 3-4 people in a row, only to get gunned by a Cr amarr logi and watch him revive them all. The only ones that don't allow this are Nova Knives(tried doing a Jihadi Scout in Fw...) and Explosives.

I think it's simply the case that when you headshot someone you tend to come into the 'overwhelming damage' category. What this guy said. We aren't exactly sure what the 'overwhelming damage' is, but it's why you cam revive mercs who have been downed multiple times. Until you recieve enough you can be revived. Explosives is the only guaranteed method, which is one ofmthe reasons the MD was hated so much in 1.3. Tanks 514 I told you, I bloody well told you. Monkey Mac - Forum Warrior of the Trees Lvl.1

I always double tap proto suits, especially when the match is about to end and they're thinking maybe they can hold out and not lose a suit. Nope, I am here to make you pay for that suit ARC Commander CPM Info and Q&A - Status: Open

Joel II X Dah Gods O Bacon 795	Posted - 2014.02.02 17:44:00 - [21] - Quote Yes. If you die from a headshot, you can still be revived. This pisses me off because if I get them with the Pistol and he gets me with a combat rifle at the same time, a random logi will revive the other dude.
sabre prime The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 62	Posted - 2014.02.02 18:25:00 - [22] - Quote Lynn Beck wrote: Apparently the clone inside has 200 HP, independent from shield/armor damage modifiers. This is what I wanted to ask. Is there a hidden HP value associated with the clone's body? (200 HP seems a bit high though). This would also explain why it's possible to survive with zero health sometimes. Because damage needs to be done (after armour hits "0") on the clone HP to finish a kill.

Outer Raven WarRavens League of Infamy 178	Posted - 2014.02.02 20:08:00 - [23] - Quote Headshot's even with a sniper rifle do not terminate clones permanently. I've on more than one occasion downed even militia and standard suits with a charged shot to the head and they get picked right back up. Apart from this I double tap all kills unless A) There are no enemies around and I can quickly snap to another target or.. B) I'm camping revive kills. The only kills that take out clones in one go are explosive rounds (Forge, Rail Cannon, MD, grenades, etc.) even on tanks and dropship's blaster shots can be revived. The only ones i'm not sure of are the PLC and flaylock pistol. ___-öGûêGûêGêƒ________________ GûêGûêGûêGòÜGûêa»½GòáGûê Gûæ Gûæ Gûæ Gûæ Gûæ Gûæ Gûæ GûÆ PEW ¯¯GùÑGò¥GûêGûêGùñ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

AAGMUNDR Reliable Overwatch Inc. 287	Posted - 2014.02.02 20:48:00 - [26] - Quote Reds I headshot with my charge sniper def can't get rezzed. Which is disappointing because I love shooting the guy getting res'd over and over again.

8213 Dem Durrty Boyz Renegade Alliance 1587	Posted - 2014.02.02 21:02:00 - [28] - Quote What I don't get is that a fallen merc still has like 300HP before you they are terminated... The concept of explosions is that the merc was 'destroyed', even though the graphics aren't going to show a merc being blown to bits Fish in a bucket! Darken's Testament SKIPPY
