Found a attachment that has +10 rescue...

jus curious ..how do u use the skill?

thanks for reply

sry for the double post..i dun know how to remove it..

and ignore my post..i found the search > rescue

omg ...that is actuallie a skill?? haha..i probably cant sell it for 1 credits but give it away

Actually, I've found rescue to be a very useful skill when I group with my hunting mates. However, they know how to work with me to make the skill successful. In order for rescue to be a viable skill in the wild, there has to be some way for it to kill the auto attack mode of the person being rescued. Eh, I keep my friends alive all the time with this skill.

"In order for rescue to be a viable skill in the wild, there has to be some way for it to kill the auto attack mode of the person being rescued."

Hmmm...

• I can see being able to turn off someone else's attackbeing rife for exploit.

Probably would need to add a caveat that the rescuer wouldneed /consent from the target beforehand.

True...and I think /peace is that built-in consent right now. Wasn't thinking that it would cause a bad PvP exploit. LOL. That would make a lot of people angry, wouldn't it?

"Brawler rangers can make good use of this."

Aye.

As many Rangers are Riflemen as well, /rescue tends to be more of a suicide command (due to the damage multipler).

• However for melee fighters, /rescue can indeed be a valuable instrument during combat.

Rescue is also known as assisted suicide for Rangers.

Buddy is being ate on by beast. You target friend, hit rescue, he hits peace. Beast now attacks you. Key here is to trap the snot out of the beast so he slows down, giving you time to kite out of the way. Friend meanwhile hopefully is healing and will assist in the beast's demise. Failing that, you got a beast on your tail.

Used to be, before a long ago nerf, you could "rescue" a BH, making his mark aggro on you, not him, in effect stealing it. He got the mission creds and some XP, you got some XP and could confuse him telling him you were sent by the guild as a "Cleaner", as you were there to clean up his mess. Was a hoot, made the BHs so very mad, and it got nerfed.

Now, as I said, it's a good way to get beat on. Have not used it in PvP in a while, does it TEF you still?

takes a long time to work.... creature kills friend, it finally works, creature comes and kills you.

I use it on and off and it does have its uses....its especially useful when you are in a group with a doctor who can Res....you don't want that doctor to go down at any cost, so you rescue the person. I've also used this to buy time until a pet can get over and engage the enemy/enemies. And finally, if its just someone you really don't want to see die, you give it a go.

Will it get you killed? Sometimes it just might...but it is extremely useful in the right situations and/or when in a coordinated group.
