Thread: what specials work well PVE and what ham pool does it effect?
*laughs*
Your asking about specials on the commando forums
*looks at himself and laughs some more*
If you want good data on specials for the Launcher Pistol we can only go so far as the Master Marksman ones...for better data...prolly visiting the Pistoleer forums is better...but quite contradictary (tho i do have pistol techs and i do know something about pistoleer specials with out LP..)
But..for the time being..Pistols generally affect Health..our LP is no different
And for our true specials..we get 4...and two are copies with two lvls each....Flame single 1, 2 Flame Cone 1,2 Acid Single 1,2 Acid Cone 1,2
Each Acid/Flame specials are for all purposes the same (hence why we need a Spray Single/Spray Cone for BOTH), and unlike other proffessions where they get sophisticated specials...our specials are just higher lvls (Realistically..we have 2 specials..technically 4...and ultra technically, 8...but once you achieve The 2nd version..you dont normally use the first)
And those are random hittings...but they seem to lean many times towards health...and i believe the flame DoT is health...but for all purposes..its they're just like concealment shot for rifleman...incredibably long delay..random pools...but for a special price...with us..thats instant damage..tho that still is weak as our DPS falls drastically short of other proffessions...but for rifleman...they may not do as much damage as Headshot 3...but they do pretty good damage (as well as the T-21 is Hvy AP) and get a great bonus of concealment...
And again..the two types of special hvy weapons are specific to Flamethrower/Acid Rifle respectively..for Gernades and Hvy weapons no specials whatsoever..and honestly, weak attack for price/disadvantages/accuracy/number of charges
totally =D
i have a rifleman with 4343 and a commando with 2243 but i've never used specials, except flamesingle 2 hehe
i'm trying to put together a team of people that can all target the same pool only =) there by being more efficient as a team to take out the targeted pool =)
