Commando Archive

My personal favorite incident occured back when you could still loadkilll people at Starports.

I'd just logged into Bestine (I'd logged out an Overt Imperial)... only to find myself lying on my back with half my HAM gone and someone shooting at me. Preferring to avoid confrontation, I tried to burstrun away, but got KD'd again. Seeing as I couldn't run, I pulled out my FT (keep in mind I had my Grenadeer title up the entire time) and he charged me.

I must complement whoever that was on their tactical brilliance. Needless to say, they ran away about 2 seconds later on firewith a good portion of their HAM gone. It looked like they were trying to heal themselves (and they seemed to be doing an Ok job of it.) While they tried to flee the city I noticed some other defenders gave chase. Then I pulled out my AT-ST.

Needless to say, that was the last time he tried to loadkill me...

I was sitting covert at the Imperial Outpost on Dantooine waiting to go to Coronet to heal my battle fatigue, since I had just died, and a covert rebel commandocomes in, and starts killing all the storm troopers and officers in the area. So what do I do? I go declare, come back over, run over, /kneel, /flamesingle2, /flamesingle1. At this time, she seemed to notice me, so I ran behind the wall just as she got a flame on me, while the storm troopers were hitting her, then strafed back out, fired a rocket launcher at her while she was doing a good job of healing the flame damage. This set her back a bit in her healing process, so she dropped unconcious. Unfortunately for her, she had good buffs and stood up and dropped right back down 20 seconds later, at which point I deathblowed her, and some nice fellow imps healed me till the dot went down.

Now the rain of trashtalking came through about how much of a n00b I was to combat because I attacked her while she was fighting storm troopers under the shuttle at the IMPERIAL OUTPOST! **edit** do some poeple think? Hmmm base named after an opposing faction with a recruiter....

My other favorite moments were all disabling someones bike in one shot as they drove by and killing them while there were trying to figure out how thier bike got disabled.

This one just happened to me today, was covert Imp near Moenia getting some droids made. I see these two guys attacking a imp NPC, so I walk up the him and go overt. This is where I figured out these guys were total noobs. CDEF rifle and pistol, one had bone armor. I promptly pull out FT and blast them bost with one cone1. I reflected on my actions, and decided that it was probably not the best thing I had every done. Just then I recieved a tell from the one with the rifle it read, "That was friggin awesome!"

Tricky- Thats a good story.

My only good story was when I was dueling a carbineer just for fun, he told me he didn't want me to use and DoTs because their are too much wounds, so I said if I can't DoT he can't KD. Anway we decided both should be allowed and we also allowed DB.

He knocks me down before I even get to kneel, and he continues knocking me down, starts laughing and gives me a break. I get up and just blast a flameSingle 2 on him and he knocks me down again and again all the while laughing, he must have assumed as a commando my DoT missed, needless to say myDoT did what it's made to do and hestopped laughing. I got up and DB'd him.

lol I've noticed when whenever ANYONE gets DB'd by a master commando, we're called NOOBS....what a sorry state of affair if, other people'spreception is that we are noobs if we kill anyone...HEY DEV'S I HOPE THIS WAS WHAT YOU WANTED, PEOPLE CALLING MASTER COMMANDOS NOOBS FOR KILLING THEM

Just yesterday I was running around coronet while overt because I forgot to go covert after running faction missions. Well, I had been running faction missions for a long while so my ham bars were all about half black and youall know how much of a pain it is to get a heal when you're overt so... Anyway, this bh in full compositeand fully buffedstarts chasing me down. What am I going to do? I can't outrun him and he's already initiated combat so I can't call my bike and ride away. I turn around equiping my flamer and my(sarcasm) oh so uber(/sarcasm) mabari armorweave (I'm poor) and run straight at the guy. I get within 16m and queu a flamesingle2. I guess this guy realised he was within 16m because he started running away but the flamesingle2 fired before he made it out of range. Here is the amazing part. I didn't miss! He dodged but I didn't miss and the dot landed on him. Now I'm not sure how but I managed to live through the recycle time and even fire a flamcone2 but I did. No miracles of accuracy this time though. I missed and was promptly incapped and death blown. This guy gets all cocky and says over my grave, "that's 3." It annoyed me a little so I didn't respawn right away. I wanted to see what my dot did to him. Interestingly enough, two other imperials come out of nowhere and engage this cocky rebel bounty hunter. The fight was very short. I watched(with satisfaction)my dot take down at least 2k of his nearly 3k health and turn about a third of his health bar black before the other imp he was fighting incapped him and death blew him. Lethal even in death. A fact which has brought a plague of nerf on our beloved flame dot but also, which has given me extreme satisfaction.

KD2 and Flamesingle2 are such a great combination in PvP. That guy must've felt pretty dumb afterwards! Hahah

I actually HIT my target, but not only that, I incapacited the guy to his right, and damaged the two on his left enough that we were able to drop them.

Great stories guys! I am still a novice 0-0-3-0, but am working hard for master. One thing that I really love about being a commando (and master marksman) is that we have all kinds of weapons available to us. I have recently become very valuable to my guild, seeing as how I am the only commando, because I can always hit something hard. Acid, cold, stun, blast, energy, kinetic, heat...we got it. Of course, I miss with a lot of it, lol.
