Amuf Oratok Dead Man's Game RUST415 66	Posted - 2015.02.21 08:40:00 - [1] - Quote Sentinels won't be more agile than you, they said. Commandos won't exit from a tank facing exactly you, absorb a charged attack with lv5 minscout + lv5 prof + ishukone nks and kill you with a charged scrambler rifle shot, they said. Bullets won't stop you in mid-air while doing the sprint and jump attack, they said. Jumping will save you from splash damage from a mass driver, they said. Fellow minjas, have you ever suffered some injustices from your point of view? Feel free to write them here. P.S. This is intended as a joking/rant post, tips are accepted but this is not their right place.

TheD1CK Dead Man's Game RUST415 1802	Posted - 2015.02.21 09:27:00 - [5] - Quote You're learning... Rule #1 as a Minja.. hate everything that lives Rule#2 as a Minja.. kill everything that lives One must learn to hate, dying to massholes, turrets, glorious lasers and shotguns are great ways to learn Once you have died to everything and everyone without being able to so much as scratch them with NK.. Then my child you are ready.. take the rage, fully charge it and Vengeance will be yours!!!! Tips - Be afraid, contact with anything may kill you, so your only contact should be your knives in their flesh Pick off flanks, watch positions before attacking, where are they? what are they occupied with ?? Most will tell you a knifer needs to back-stab, this is false You need to cloak or hide your approach but the sweetest kills are when they look you in the eye Wiggle, wiggle, strafe, wiggle also helps lol Minja just takes patience, then in a sh!tstorm you need to react fast, and run when needed Recently I have 1v1'd 2 tanks with Flux nades and 'Quafe' Knives .. the things hatred will do are amazing

Derpty Derp Dead Man's Game 816	Posted - 2015.02.21 10:31:00 - [7] - Quote I've only ever run a basic scout with militia nova knives (only took 5 hits, some charged, to down a heavy) So my point of view is slightly invalid on this... But if you don't decloak near people, or charge your knives (seems stupid, I know,) you might just have a better shot at sneaking up on people. Them sound effects (when they decide to work) have saved my big, fat, commando arse several times.

bane sieg Eternal Beings General Tso's Alliance 82	Posted - 2015.02.21 17:25:00 - [11] - Quote They forgot to tell you that you have to be a masochist to be a minja 69 million skill points and stop laughing, it's just a number.
Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution Negative-Feedback 9860	Posted - 2015.02.21 17:37:00 - [12] - Quote How To Minja: The Guide First and foremost. BE A MASOCHIST. Second: Being really good at stealth or having great twitch skills will vastly improve your experience. FITTINGS: Basically only a few good fits I've found in my time. Double Damp + Speed Damp + Speed + Regulator Double Speed +Damp Damp + Speed + Code Fit whatever shields you can in high. Typically 2x shields and one utility mod, whether it be a precision or energizer. Equipment is a mix of Cloak, RE, or Uplinks. Scanner every now and then. Really comes down to preference. Weapons are the same. Pick what you like. Knives work great for killing people on hacks quickly and efficiently, as well as anyone not paying attention. Personally, I run a Boundless CR and Ishukone NK, for a good blend of all around Combat Effectiveness. THINGS TO WATCH OUT FOR: Anyone who is facing you. Unless you got some real balls, don't frontal knife. 8/10 times it will get you killed. There are exceptions to this. Running knives requires a lot of practice to get down. Amarr scouts. If they are running 2x precision (You'll notice when they do), either run 3x damp or SPEED TANK. If you aren't running 3x damp, you might as well run none and be fast as hell to stay away from them. Speaking from experience, I have a great friend by the name of Devin Xer who loves to run his amarr scout when we see each other. They are the reason why I skilled a Gal scout. Scramblers and AR's. You are SQUISHY. REALIZE THIS. These things will ruin your day in a half a second flat. This is where observation and careful planning come in handy. You should spend a lot of time at range with a cloak, observing who has what weapons and the best way to approach/avoid. Remember, never walk into a fight you can't win. I can't tell you how many idiots I have run into that try to get the jump on my Gal Assault. I have far more HP and a giant damage modded AR. If you don't instakill me, I WILL kill you. Pro-Tip for dealing with tanky armor assaults: Cook Flux, then shred with CR. If you're quick, they will drop like a stone. This is only if you can't get in knife range though PARTING ADVICE: Have fun. The suit is a blast when you get the intricacies of it down. You will die if you make a mistake, so this is actually my favorite suit for improving overall gameplay and gungame. You have to play your best when using this suit to make it shine. Use this suit for awhile and switch to an assault and watch how carefully and effectively you play. Send me a mail if you are still having trouble. If you have a mic, I will do my best to help you. 07 Scout. I know how hard it can be to run it, especially if you are just starting playing. I started my Dust Career back in Uprising 1.0 in a Min Scout, back in the Tac AR and Cal Logi days. What a time to learn how to play lol. Born Deteis Caldari. Rejected by my Kinsman.

Archduke Ferd1nand Nos Nothi 80	Posted - 2015.02.21 17:41:00 - [13] - Quote Now that they buffed NK's there is a way to counter everything that doesn't know you're there, granted god hit detection and minimal lag. Heavies are either fast and die to a charged shot (velociraptor them), or slow and can't backpedal. Tank your shields to deal with spray-and-pray. Assaults are a problem, (at least for myself), but just make sure they aren't Gallente or Amarr and you'll win with a single charged slash. Make sure to move side to side while slashing them to make both knives hit. Shotguns are the #1 problem for most novice/amateur Minja's. If its a SG scout, DON'T jump knife them, sprint, wiggle while sprinting, and uncharged slash them. Try shotgunning for a while and observe what makes targets difficult to hit. Its much different than with knives. You'll find that the hardest to hit is the ADADADAADADADADADADADADADADADA style strafe, while circle and figure 8 are fairly easy to hit in comparison. Don't ADADADADADADAD strafe yourself. You want to make 2 moves, kind of like a juke, and on the second one you want to circle outside of the blast, and towards the target, and slash. Inside of 3 meters, knife has the advantage, as the SG is hard to hit with in super duper CQC, whereas knife has a larger damage hitbox, and thus is stronger. If its a SG assault, run for your life, and find another target. Were not the prey you are looking for. Alternatively, use your fine rifle, and out range them if they're stupid and out in the open. Logis are easy, Gallogi tears are deliciously sweet and succulent. They're your #1 target. Make them pay for trying to scan you down. If you get scanned, you're as good as dead, and spawn back in with more damps, and fewer kin cats. Watch out for the BrAR on the Logi's as it is your #1 hated weapon in the world. If they have it, approach with extreme caution. Commandos are your easiest prey by far. Any variety of these tactics will eliminate them. Overall, just don't attack people who know you're there, if they turn, run at them or to cover if its available. Killed by Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p on June 28 1914. Last words: "Nova Knives and a Flaylock Pistol? I might just die laughing!"

Izlare Lenix Pub Stars 1284	Posted - 2015.02.21 18:56:00 - [17] - Quote I got pro min scout a few days ago. Been running it and knifing reds constantly since then. It is by far the most fun and most aggravating suit/weapon combo to use. I die all the time chasing down a red when if I was in my assault I could have just killed them from 50m instead of having to run across a field, get behind the red, decloak, jump/charge knives and then pray hit detection registers my swipes. Even still the joys of slicing spines is well worth the anger that comes with using the minja. The only real truth in history is that it was bloody.
