you que up attacks just like normal. upon counterattacking, your NEXT que'd attack will be unblockable (tho i have very rarely seen it miss or get dodged a few times).


there is no extra attack that you counterattack w/, you can still only do 1shot/second and it's entirely up to what you have currently que'd.


the only way you could have counterattacked w/ burstshot is if you had it que'd in your combat box, the target hit you, you counterattacked, and then the burstshots fired afterward.

Ahh, ok, that makes sense. I was buffed fighting rancors w/ a TKM/Swordsman and was spamming burst shot all night long. I guess the thing that gets me is this:


I have maskscent. My friend does not. Whenever HE entered battle, I immediately and automatically shot off 2 burst shots without touching the keyboard or mouse. This all happened before I even realized I was in battle. My maskscent was never broken, meaning that the rancor never aggrod me directly.


Maybe I'm just not getting it. lol

Hey folks...


First off, I love counterattack. It works almost every time now, without fail. Even if something aggros my group, my char automatically spams 2 burst shots at the enemy. Good stuff. Now here's my question...


Is there any way to program what shots you counter with? It would be great if I could counter with a dizzy/KD combo.


Anyone know?

How in the hell did you counter with burst shots? And could you replicate this? So far everyone who's tested it has noticed you only counter with one regular attack...

No idea man, I trained up 0330 last night, and once i hit the 3rd counterinsurgency box it started spamming 2 burst shots everytime myself or my group was aggroed. This isn't the standard I take it?

No, but dear lord if it was Counterattack would be sweet! I suggest you test it a little more and get some screenies of your combat log, just in case.
