Thread: Why does it seem that we have more nerf calls now that +1 no incap is in effect?

because mind poison is impossible to defend against.
imo no class should be able to attack mind. Or they should make mind healable.
It's called a doctor, They can cure it. So it's not imposible, also if you find a nice quite spot you can just let it wear off remember it wont incap you.
no class should attack mind eh? so you have a nerf post on the BH, and the Rifle forums as well?
It all boils down to this: "Wah! He beat me! Nerf him!"
It doesn't matter how many times they had won in the past, or the amount of prep time needed before the battle. Getting beaten hurt the munchkin pride and they want revenge, and seeing how there are relatively few Combat Medics we make an easy target for the collective masses.

So you attack from outside weapon range, no armour protects against the poison, and you damage a pool I can't heal.
That must really take some skill.
About as much skill as using a HPBC with aim at 64m and one shotting someone, I'd imagine.
Oh just in case you're wondering, I'm a holo CM, and I was a CH/Commando before I had to free up the points. I miss my flamethrower
ChewGoBack, you say:
"So you attack from outside weapon range, no armour protects against the poison, and you damage a pool I can't heal.

YES. It did. It took skill and tactics for a CM to beat a BH (or two). He was prepared, knew the terrain, and invested a lot to get his optimally configured equipment. The other two did not. The same would be true for a Commando who rushed the two, flame cone AOE the both of them, incapping immediately, and leaving them on fire, a TRULY incurable state (you see, Mind CAN be healed. Muon, Fishak, CM, others? Poison CAN be cured, by docs, and TKA can meditate it away. Currently, nothing you can do about fire, except run for water. Try that on Lok or Tat.). Both tactics take advantage of what their respective class excels at. Go back and read his post again...
