Ok, so I go PvPing last night, and a pikeman beats the crap out of me. There is no way that this is fair, I'm a 2-2-4-2 Rifleman, and I think it's pretty evident that pikemen need a major nerf.

Get off your High Horse, your mistake was allowing him to catch you, if your a rifleman, you need to stay the hell away from someone.


I think Pikemen are the least of your worries.

ROFL!!!


look bud, rifle, anything less than MASTER = do not pvp.


for god sake, your lvl2 in the speed tree, and you are most likely using a Damage sliced T21, so your trying to spam hs2 at about 1 shot every 4-5 seconds.


said pikeman hits burst run, then uses either lunge1 to change your posture down, or lunge2 to KD your fool arse catches up, hits Area2 sticks a dizzy on you, then lays in to you with polearmHit3. just be happy that we no longer have a 2.5x multiplyer on the damage we recieve. in those days said pikeman would have 1 shoted you.


rifle is great pvp because of the people who realy learn the class, we worked up those trees back when we had the 2.5x damage, before conceal shot worked, in the days when there we 3 riflemen on a server, and we had to deal with 90% MCH/Commando's in PVP we learned STRATEGY, and got good. now all the Noobs pick up rifle because they see us take down a (stupid) TKM or 4, and expect to be as good.


its the same for pike, a GOOD pikeman, who understands his profession, and STRATEGY can lay waste to a TKM, a master Rifleman, or even the all popular TKM/Rifleman. there is no "i win" template, if you defence stack, i will intimidate you and kill you, if you kite me, i will kite you, if you bum-rush me, i will jam a pike in your face, spam dizzy/kd, ill eat thallok (sp?)


learn the game, learn strategy, and for the love of god, dont PVP as a rifleman before master, i killed a grand total of 5-6 people before i hit master, and that was because i tracked them down and got the drop on them (was a ranger) bout 9/10 people i tried that on just turned around and killed me any way.


btw, read the sig, MASTER rifleman, MASTER pikeman

If you are doing rifleman you should not PvP until master, believe me I know. Besides, if any melee profession gets that close to you since you are a rifleman do you still expect to win???

You*edit**edit* licking*edit* stain, in theory no combat proffession should be better than the other. You are the mostmoronic pond scum ive ever had the misfortune to see post. Just because you flavour of the month and don't learn to actually play your character you seem to see it as your god given right to be ub3r and 1337 and beat everyone you meet.
pathetic.

Easy killer... This post was a joke. I personally believe Pikemen need to be beefed up more than anyone. And before you go calling people "flavour of the month" I've been a rifleman since launch. I've been a riflemen through the worst of times. I don't powergrind, and I never want to be uber or leet. So why don't you take your assanine comments and ram them up your pretentious ass.

My bad, but there really are people who post like you did and i just thought you were another one of these morons. My apologies if you are not but you truly did post like a FOTM'er. Im TK and Master Brawler and i'm now doing pikeman and i'm just sick of these nerf calls and whiners.
