Thread: How to beat a CM/xx in pvp.
Rifleman/Doc/Brawler is the counter.
Ive been using this template for a while in pvp and was killing pretty any CM in pvp and even had time to cure/heal the rest of my groups after all cms were dead.
Defence:
As a Doc i was always buffed and the only peaces of armor i ever used was a 89%/39% stun helmet and sometimes same kind of chestplate if it was not a rifleman. Ive hotkeyed a macro with all kinds of stateheals ordered by their potential danger. So poison/desease cures first, then intim and stun etc... That way i was always free of nasty effects and poisons. I also used brawler specials for defence pretty much. I had all kinds of mind food and drugs ready to go in my hotbar. Sometimes got mindbuffs but it was never necessary. You can keep yourself up just with food for hours of pvp combat.
Offence: I was using a damage sliced T21 and a dmg sliced disruptor for those with no helms and a krayted dmg sliced Jawa (cost me 5 mil) agains composite.
Tactics: The first thing all CM do in pvp is trying to land their poisons/desease which are instant neutralized by a macro i told about. So they are forced into RM vs RM combat but since their CM is useless and i still have doc and ive alrady land few shots while they were throwing poison im in advantage.
When it comes to guns the first thing i do is trying to keep them stunned and intimidated. This is very important since it drops their damage by like 75%, combined with 39% stun helmet and mind food i was godmode. Once they were stunned + intim it was just a question of time.
If they are smart and try the same, well im a doc i can heal states and bleedings. And btw. equilium cannot be used when stunned.
Its lot of fun for all who are fed up of being owned by CMs in pvp.
However its a good template agains CM. Not agains some other nasty things tho. Like BH and carbiner with their ranged knockdown and dizzy. They can do it outside of stun/intim range and the things might get hairy then.
have a nice day...
the doc/cm/rifleman template, i never seen one of those. Propably because i never used poisons on them... You cant be master in all 3. That means no good poisons and no good buffs. There we are.
I made the template just to show CM is not an ultimate uber pvp killer. They can be counter easy. This template can be grindet in few days. All you need then is some pvp expirience and credits for guns and gear. It doesnt need to be a krayted jawa. You can get very good jawas for less then 100k.
Of course youre weak to other things like i already said. But i had a lot of fun hunting CMs for few weeks and it worked for me.
carbineer/doc/cm > rifleman/doc/cm,
kd/dizzy/poison/disease = bye bye cm O:
I was able to beat a rifleman/doc in combat, but only because I was able to usecover to my advantage to protect me from those nasty headshots..
The encounter took a while, but I finally got the upper hand on the mind bar. Had I not had cover, I would have been a goner.
CM's can now bypass the 4 sec timer.. The CM's u have fought have not been using poison right..
- They Stack all three bars with poision from the gitgo these days.. while u are trying to heal the massive health disease, cause it heals in order, the mind is tickin away with the heavy poison.. then as u heal that , they slam another on u as u try to heal the action.. so u have to go back to the health again before u get to the Mind.
- The worst CM I have seen is a fencer/CM/Brawler these guys throw poision from a CoB... making them a hard target to hit. By the time u get done with the 'poison stack' and have healed your mind u will be down to less than half and have that Compo wearin CM in your face with a baton..
I have seen these guys stack the poison and keep a target intimidated and warcried...
I mean -Health poison, and healin the health poison.. not health disease..lol
