I got a tell from a person saying it was cheap for me to shoot overts in the city of AH from the north hill. I also get people telling me to grow some balls and fight in the city. What do you guys think, am I being cheap?

personally i think that if they cant deal with one goober on a hilltop potting em and they are too stupid to stay out of range till they can deal with him then they deserve to be potted by said goober...

anyway keep up the good work!!

get used to the whining, I get tells almost every battle i enter. Its when people dont complain, or send a tell like "good job, even if you are an imp" or salute you that make it worth it. I end up remembering these decent folks and not dbing them usually, while as the whiny haters give me many faction points.

I think we should have already figured out that the majority of rebels like to whine...

It's fair to attack from that hill.


But I disagree with the statement of "sniper".


Last time I looked I didn't have a sniper rifle. Wait maybe that's what the Republic Blast is for..

They are basically taunting you to play to their strengths instead of playing to yours. If you determine the rules of the fight, you have a better chance of winning.

Do you play on Naritus as the TKA/Marksman, darksomething? I was one of the rebels fighting there,you dbed me 3 times, lol, my character's name is Pierre Fantastico.


Don't take any of the /tells seriously, it was as good of a fight as they come in that situation.. I do take issue with some of the other imperials that were fightingby taking advantage of the group TEF, but from what I saw, the rebels were just as guilty of this as anyone else..


I am constantly baffled why people get upset when a person uses the best specials/tactics that their class affords them. What do they expect, that you won't use any of your specials.. that you'll come down off the hill and stand 15 meters away from them, or that when you incap someone, you'll try to walk over to them to db, instead of using sniper shot? Yeah, it is frustrating to get beaten the way I did, but it isn't your fault for taking advantage, you'refirst rifleman I've ever fought, and I obviously need to develop some tactics against what you were doing. Anyone who believes that rifleman are overpowered probably doesn't know much about your class.


On a side note, I was surprised to learn that advanced strafe will hit me for 500 damage, even with good armor on, the combat spam didn't even mention my armor doing anything. Is this a bug, or because of your T21's heavy armor pierce?

It's incredibly cheap


Try being a bit more west, you get a better opening through the buildings. Now if you were sniping people on the bazaar then it is sort of a toss up. I don't really consider that fair but they are overt and doing it, if these guys were just spamming **edit** tell them a rebel insisted on the DB and tomsg me if they don't believe you.

Nope, all Imperial Sharpshooters use that tactic at some point or another.


Anchorhead is your first true spot for rediculously easy PvP kills. Kinda how Bestine is for us Rebels.
