All of my GalScouts I have been using so far are pretty squishy and I die really fast in them. I never really cared about dying so much in them because they still performed well doing what I set them up for.

Today the good people over at Fatal Absolution and Ancient Exiles. were kind enough to educate me on how ineffective my squishy GalScout fits are when trying to slay people in a city; they did this by slaughtering me and blowing me up with Mass Drivers more consecutive times than I can ever remember.

So now I am here looking for GalScout fits that work well for slaying with a Shotgun.

Also, I'm looking for a fit that works well for suicide runs. For some reason I really enjoy going on crazy suicide runs with my GalScout which, though it contributes to a lot of my deaths obviously, is very fun.

Anyone have some fitting advice?

Unfortunately mass driver highground spam is real in PC especially against the big nerd corps like FA, not sure what to even do about since Im a scrub.

Dont get seen, thats pretty much the only personal level advice for this. I've had a tiny bit of success vs. excessive mass driver spam by using a x3 dampener min assault shotgunner, but it doesnt have the same functionality as a scout does, so its not a perfect replacement.

You would probably need to put some teamwide effort into owning the high ground or introducing mass drive spam yourself, but this will be ineffective unless your team has the skill level to compete with these guys in general since you will get blown the **** out regardless if you dont.

FA will generally have some people running some Rattatis with Agimus/AR or some other setup with myofibrils, often camping high ground, even if you come up to them and shotgun them right in the ass, they will grasshopper up and you will be in deep **** pretty soon as they come down. This wouldnt be as much of an issue except that on a team level FA usually wrecks everyone so you will basically be alone most of the time.

Is rough problem, good luck. Ugh

EDIT: just to make it explicit, you cannot fit your way out of this problem. Keep your dampening up (should go without saying in PC) and dont be seen, or have some sort of team wide counter, thats the only way you're going to get out of it.

I think you have us confused with Prima Gallicus.

Who needs the high ground when you can slaughter everyone with your boots on the ground? Twisted

Last time I played FA I kept running into some myo rattati guy every time I went near the city running ags/AR, hopping onto high ground in the rings/acid pit facility (I forget his name).

I got him a couple of times but just the restrictions placed on you by always being in danger of some guy 2 shotting you from across the facility on high ground is very difficult to work around.

This was only one of a few guys chilling on high ground, and of course plenty cruising around hunting on the ground as well. The reason the high ground camping is so effective is because the ground game is just as nasty, otherwise they could be isolated/picked off/cleared (and the high ground "campers" are generally moving around and shifting to ground/back to high ground at will, so even calling them campers isnt really accurate).

All of this of course if from the view of an outsider, so I dont know what the **** you guys are up to strategically.
