How much is the accuracy bonus going to help me at +130 Carbine Accuracy vs. a Flame Thrower

And I have found it is best to keep moving because once I am on my back looking at the sky my accuracy goes all to hell.

WOOT WOOT

Glad one of my Alt's is a Master Doctor

I alwase move. THose + wile moving tapes realy help and if you can get them do it. But over all if you have good weapons moving makes it harder on them than it does you. Your bigest enemy is probably a rifleman. First of all most pvp takes place at 40m or less so they already have a to hit penalty. Now your moving they suffer even more. Get in close and they cant realy hit to good at all (bout 20m seems ideal for an elite. Still far enough to not compleatly hurt the weapon but way to close for the riflemen) And circle them...They will try and run away. Get em in a corner if possable They will be forced to stop running just to hit you. This makes it even easyer to hit them. Its easyer to hit a non moving target if your moving than it is to hit a moving target if your standing...At least thats what it feals like to me.

And as for the commandos. Stay moving and more than 25 m away and they will miss so much you might laugh. posture change and kd helps a lot here.

TK's move move move. If you keep moving not only might they miss but its hard for them to stay in range to get the dizzy and kd on you...be ready to burst because they will. Watch for the lunge it hits from 20m though...and it can be hard to keep that far away from them if you dont see em comming. Can be tricky if you cant heal dizzy. But if you can heal dizzy...and watch for it...Often you will heal the dizzy before the kd even goes off because they qued up to many dizzy attacks. then they waste the kd because you can get back up and your imuned for 30.

grrrrrrrrrrr

there are two penalties involved with moving. i've noticed that even when kneeling at ideal range, if the target starts running i'll still get a - to hit number (usually under -50). If i start moving that number jumps to -50 (even though its more, the system will only display up to -50). In PVE, i find most of the time the penalty is lower to stand there and fire point blank than to run around. In PvP you can really only afford to stop moving if you've postured down your target, and even then its only for a shot or two. if you kneel, some melee class or commando is going to kick your ass and call you names. That's always going to be a problem for any 'real time' battlefield that uses a turn based attack system.

Realy i cant tell wen im fighting a stacker. the 90% composet people i can tell real quick though lol. I have enough attachments and ideal range bonus on my weapons cloths and armor for acc that even stacked defence i hit well over 50% of the time at bout 25m with an elite. But then again they are riflemen and one on one im hard pressed to break a 50% win ratio unless they have a crap weapon or just dont know what they are doing.

And the best thing about the riflemen def stackers....Most of em on my server at least think they are to uber to buff hahah....i gurrentee ill beat anyone that is not buffed wen im set up for pvp.

I was wondering something over the past few days...

The general advice people give when fighting in PvP is to keep moving. Players spend a lot on accuracy while moving skill tapes.

I was wondering, in the cases where a player does not have those tapes and they are fighting a range class, are they better just kneeling to get the slight defensive bonus but then get the big accuracy bonus?

Has anyone experimented with this?

Mobility is life.End of story.

i dont pvp at ALL really, so i havent a clue about fighting against people....but against any and all PVE stuff while i might start out prone so as to remain undetected, even if theyre a ranged NPC i move, and i move a LOT. but thinking PVP....yeah. a pistoleer i'd definitely try to stay as far from as possible, and NEVER stop moving, carbineer i wouldnt care and i'd probably just stay still the whole time, rifleman i'd get as close to as possible, commando i'd stay the heck away from even fighting them and use as many posture changes as possible after dizzying, and BH i'd just...die . though i'd unload my most powerful shots into them as fast as i could....
