Thread: Isn't it fun having 80% of our skills useless in PvP
You're a troll that knows nothing of the class they wish they knew how to play. Flushing 2 and Flurry 2 with the right gun are the most useful tools for making sure your side wins the fight. True, we don't have a posture down attack, but guess what. We're not supposed to be the end all and be all of PvP. We're supposed to be part of a team. I can sit in the back of a fight laying down stuns and dizzy's on the entire opposing force and they pay me almost no mind. Why? Because they're looking for someone spamming strafe 2 or headshot, not flurry or flushing. Once the entire opposing force is stunned (which turns even the most stacked defenses to nothing) and dizzy, the TK's, pistoleers, and carbineers can close in and start using thier KD's and posture downs. They can land them too, because the other teams defenses are crap. Once the other side is down, because of my dizzy's they stay down, for a LONG time because I just keep applying them over and over. And still I'm ignored cause my high accuraccy E11 does crap for damage and its not an attack thier looking for. Heck they probably think I'm a pistoleer I do so little damage.
Is cover and concealed shot pretty much useless in PvP? Yup, but so is sniper shot for PvE. If not being able to take cover in PvP is all we have to **edit** about then damn... we're probably the best off class in the game.

Man now you're just reaching for things. And yes pistoleer and pikeman also suck, I never said they didn't but since this is the rifleman forum I thought I'd stick to that.

It's nice to be on TeamSpeak and have cohorts, with no DB, tell you to put the kill shot on someone. Gotta love the sniper shot. And Flushing 2 is the BEST.

As an ex BH and current rifleman, you are full of crap. If you think this is bad, try bounty hunter and have 100% of your specials be worthless.
Yep because Dizzy/KD/Flame DOT in 1 shot is so worthless right?

Funniest one ever...really.
We've better than a posture down, we have a posture UP. It works against a standing guy, and guess what: who has def vs posture up when everyone has so much in def vs posture down?

Can you dizzy and use a posture up attack to KD them? (not being an ass, just asking, because i honestly have never tried)
