A discussion on Equipment

Post by x31stOverlord » 29 Mar 2018, 07:18

Hello Brothers and Sisters!

After having a few messages with a couple of you I have seen a trend. Even with those who play and I have o served the gear choices. So, this is a new discussion about the gear we have available, what you choose to use, why you use it and if you have gear you absolutely refuse to use, why?

In my opinion each piece of equipment we can choose should be better than others in certain situations to give you a reason to choose it rather than "don't use X it is usless"

Personally I was told that the heavy clan armour is useless because it slows you down too much, I tested it out on Prison yesterday, given that prison is very confined and can be very confrontational. The results were astounding as far as I can see. Multiple slashes from hunters were completely negated, claymores (I am hilariously bad at spotting claymores) knocked me down but I was up on my feet in no time with virtually no injuries. AP ammo was just bouncing off me and even the A19 Heavy ammo had a hard time doing anything to me (had to pull a little shrapnel out of me), whilst yes, I understand on the larger/open maps speed might be king in situations. I think the heavy armour on prison is very worthwhile.

I have yet to test out the purifying smart disc and plasma rifle, but I shall do.

So, what weapon do you use and why, what equip mentioned do you prefer to take and why?

The standard loadout for any map is the Clan sword + spike launcher + enhanced bracer.

I personally like the combi stick + 2x enhanced bracers + alien harpoon

recently I've been trying out combi stick, enhanced bracer and plasma rifle, I really dig the rifle's scope and it helps me plan stuff out more.
