Commando Archive

If you can't beat em, join em.

No seriously. After commando, and bounty hunter, and creature handler what combat classes are there? Pistoleer, Rifleman, Carbineer? These are classes for people who just want to dabble in combat while they do something else, like being ina crafter class. The low requirements make this possible.They shouldnt expect to be on the same level as BH or Commando.

And TKA... this class will always have inherent problems in pvp. Its what you get for bringing a knife to a gunfight as the quote goes.

Sorry, you can't complain about not being able to compete with commandos and BHs in combat if you are unwilling to make the same kind of commitment toward combat.

When are ppl gonna learn that damage is all we got? man these ppl are REALLY starting to get on my nerves.

Well said. Same for the other brawler elits.

On the contrary, no crafter's going to master a marksman elite. I think that they should be more powerful than commandos in certain instances. However, we should often have the upper edge.

First off I have to say I'm not a master commando. I agreed with an earlier post. If your dueling a commando, your probably gonna lose if your only a rifleman unless you get in some good bleeds and stuff before the commando is within flamethrower range. Since we are bugged and heavy weapons shoot as if they were melee, they get the damage modifier based on stance and such. You probably should have known this, and if you didn't, you do now.

Now pardon me if I begin to rant, but posts like this kinda bugs me. People who come on to other professions' boards and scream nerf or what not seems wrong. The Commando professsion still has more than it's fair share of bugs, and all we have going for ourselves is the Flamethrower, which is bugged itself. Once the melee damage modifier is fixed then we won't be quite as powerful and many will leave this profession. So many people come onto this board, uninformed, and cry about how we should be nerfed. This is the same for many professions, and sometimes it's true, a fix is needed, but a majority of the time, it's because they do not understand the profession. Posting like this is an invite to be proven wrong. I apologize if this post appears as flaming you, but I hope you understand the mistake you made and will learn from it.

First place we are big hitters, we have no strategy.

Second, and last, you need to do your research before you post a flaming thread, it takes us 15 seconds to do a 2.5k special. Thats not unfair at all, i didnt even mention we have to pay 20k for the flamethrower to do it, and that the flamethrower misses 50% of the time, and that its ideal range is point blank.

i forgot to mention they fact that these specials only work at 20meters of less

Lol shanghai, where's the edit button when you need it?

Ok, as soon as your weapons have 20 charges they can lower the damage.

LOL

Shockir,

Don't bother explaining, hardly anyone pays attention tot he details of game mechanics,

Or the balancing of skill points.... or how skills work...

all the players that complain notice is one thing...

SO and SO used <special attack skill> against me and it did <Amount of Damage>

that players skills and everything aren't even taken into consideration and I also know that because it's obvious after they died they flamed the guy, and he's not gonna share how he spec'd his character with the lame flaming creep...

I've seen people in the marksman class complaining about how they dueled a commando and lost horribly cause they do "outrageous damage" as he puts it. I checked out what happend, the guy had rifle 4 and thought he could sit there doing mind shot against a master commando with full composite and a flamethrower. Because of the fact that accuricy is horribly reduced when you and target is moving he just sat there, though he was stupid enough to let the commando get close enough to use his specials. He's also complaining about how commando's are god's but we take damage just as easily as other classes do and if the guys a master commando I think he's earned the ability to take on a marksman like that. What pissed me off about him is he wasn't willing to see the commando's side of the story and acted pretty stuborn.

just a small sidenote :

i tryed my flamer in some duels against a tkm

i did arround 300damage with flamesingle 2 ( no i dont have a old flamerthower i think it has 400-850 3.2)
