Magewarlord Vengeance Unbound RISE of LEGION 67	Posted - 2014.11.20 19:17:00 - [32] - Quote simple fix: no more restocking (like all other equipment). you get your 2 or 3 REs per life and that's it. this is why PC is currently problematic. Most players don't care about using cheap tactics as long as they get to feel good getting kills. cheap tactics=easy mode. Don't know about you, but I'm too much a man for measures such as this. though there's lots of young and old kids out there...

PM Michael Epic in game...I did and ran a squad with him and he showed me all kinds of cool ass remote explosive tricks. I feel like I'm this guys fan club haha but when we're talking about RE's he's one of the ones I always see on the kill feed with remote explosives
Mortishai Belmont G.L.O.R.Y General Tso's Alliance 243	Posted - 2014.11.20 19:20:00 - [34] - Quote We sentinels actually are supposed to have "Splash damage resistance" which are the only damage type remotes do. CCP how ever, has not let us actually have the skill though we are skilled into it. So take some action and file that support ticket, maybe they'll fix it and we won't have to worry about it anymore, we'll be able to live through that one remote long enough to choke a scout out ;3 G.L.O.R.Y solider, Heavy, Assault, Logi...

Walk slowly when in enemy territory. Keep a careful ear for the RE sound. If it's from behind SPRINT FORWARD. Unless they are using proto, you will be fine. If they try to do this from in front, OPEN FIRE. He can't detonate when dead. Kill him, back up, remove the RE. You hopefully are sticking with teammates if you are a heavy. NEVER be a heavy without good support. You WILL get shotgunned or RE'd in the back. That's one of the great things about this game. If you are a lone wolf and NOT a scout, 9/10 times you will get torn to shreds. Find a squad, play with them, and play smart. Most problems blueberries complain about will go away, I guarantee it. This is a load of horse crap. A shield stacked scout can run around well enough spamming RE's close enough at your feet that you only get 2 options - run or kill. And killing doesn't guarantee that RE won't go off, so you're best bet is get out of the RE's way that IS GOING TO DENOTE IN 3 SECONDS. That's how long a nade should take, as it's intended purpose unarguably is anti-infantry and is a tool to use during combat. RE's are not anti-infantry, they're specialist tools, used to give a tactical edge in ambushes or punching a hole in hard armor. It is not a direct combat tool, it's a support. But the current function of RE's is it's better to use then a Core Locus. The entire problem is as others say - it goes off much too quickly. The real answer is a placing animation so they can't be tossed around like a nade, but since we all know CCP is incapable of that, the next best solution is increase detonation timer. Make it so you do NOT throw that RE while IN COMBAT and expecting it to go off seconds later like a nade - that's insane. And the only people who support are the ones spamming it or are among those spamming it. And FA spams RE's like CRAZY. o.0

RE's are fuktarded, and thier tossers are as well. tossing C4, hahaha ! satchel charges have an acid trigger it's reasonably safe..lol

This really should be put into the game, hiding from OB's is dumb, what's the advantage of having one of people can just hide from 'em? They're 5000 WP now - they should be a bit more effective, and eliminating the walls for the OB's AoE would probably fix PC up a lot, as OB's both make and break games.

What you didn't mention is how many people quit this game, due to frustration, and RE's do play a part of that. Remember your first days of Dust, and rethink what you wrote here. I came into this game as a Minmatar scout in the high hay days of Cal Logis and Tac AR's. You think RE'S ARE BAD? This game isn't for the weak willed. Literally ALL of my friends that came into this game with me quit, because they refused to adapt and play smart. They all went to go play GTAV instead. As they say in EVE, HTFU man.

(may as well be neon pink for me....) That being said the RE is a counter for tanked heavies, similar to mass drivers being a counter to Minja, you've simply run into your weakness. If you're having problems with that particular counter it may be because you've simply not the means to oppose it? I'm a Minmatar user myself, tend to not have too much EHP, but I'm fast enough to do much flanking and ambushing. Going head to head, not so much. shrug There's a counter to everything, you just need to utilise it. Sinboto - The True Blood Minja Forum Warrior level 5 Prof 1 STB-Infantry (Demolition)

We regularly clear rooms packed with heavies without dropping a single remote. Pro tip - In Dust, we know if you're lying. Mathematically thats impossible, with the SP required. If you're an alt, and can prove it, I'll think otherwise. You do make a valid point however, Scouts and REs go together as commonly as Thales and the Redline. As someone who regularly runs Assaults, Heavies are a pain in the arse to kill. I either have to rely on them being idiots, another Heavy on my side, or an RE/Knifer/Shotty Scout. On my Scout alt, I hate heavies so counter with the REs/Knives/Shotty. On my Heavy (not maxed) on this char I hate scouts so counter by using my eyes, not rolling with a massive group of heavies and logis, and avoiding bottlenecks. Everything has a counter - albeit challenging. The Connoisseur of Weapons. 19/19 L5 P2. Snarcasm > Sarcasm Excessively British.

What do you think happens when a scout stands in front of you and you press the Iwin button? It's a counter, deal with it.
