Hello,


I'm a riflemen BH, and I like to use cover150-129m away from my mark and crawl into range. Unfortunatly this takes ages. Has anyone tested crawl speed with these two skill enhancing attachments?


- Rifle crawl speed

- Terrain Negotiation


I know a ranger crawls faster than a scout 4-0-0-0, so the terrain negotiation mod should work. Does anyone know if rifle crawl speed is functioning properly?


Thanks,


Ajianna

Rifle Crawl speed was removed in September or October 2003. Unless you have some ranger or a squad leader grouped u wont crawl much faster. Although I would try getting some BE terrain negotiation clothes if u have scout 4000 and that might help too.

as was stated


  • Rifle Crawl Speed has no function in game (useless mod) was a beta item that never was removed when the skill was (it created situations where rangers could crawl faster then a person using burst run.)

  • If you group with a SL they will add +40 to your terrain negotiation (so you should hit 80 as4000 scouit)this would that will allow you to crawl like a bat out of hell.

  • Terrain Negotiation Attachements/BioE clotheswill allow you to gaina further 25 on your base skill (so 65 as4000 scout and this show significant crawl speed improvements

  • Group Terrain Negotiation Attachements would not help you at all unless you are a SL

  • There is terrain Negotiation food that can give a significant boost as well

Thanks for that - I'll have to try changing clothing while under cover - have a shirt and pants for crawling, and one with melee defense bonuses and all my rifle skilltapes in it =)

Group with a pet.. what a good idea



Ok, so to improve my crawl speedabove scout 4-0-0-0 I'm going to need:



+25 to terrain negotiation


+25 to group terrain negotiation



... Time to go attachment hunting. Do the tapes make a big difference?

I have spent a bit of money on these damn rifle crawl speed tapes and they dont work!


I guess I should read and research before spending money in this game, instead of assuming everything in the game works


BTW: THAT SUCKS!...I love crawling around under cover, was thrilled thinking about crawling faster while under cover

There is a sticky in most the trade forums about which SEAs work and which dont. It might be outdated by now, since CU, but you should get a general idea.

I notice a huge difference while climbing up hills with my BE +34 terrain negotiation(+25 is the cap though for skill attachments or clothing) and my +25 group terrain negotiation belt. I have no scout so it doesnt make me crawl faster but with scout 4000 u should crawl alot faster with just the BE clothes, so thats what i would buy. I got my +25 group terrain tape for 5 million pre-cu but i probably wouldnt waste money on em now. It's still a nice mod that definitely works.

that would be a bug and quite possibly an exploit as they are an SL only attachement... To put it into perspective - it would be like pistol speed attachements adding to your rifle speed.

travel biscuts are the name of the food, they add +15 terrain neg for around 15 mins


with 4/0/0/0 scout, be cloths, and a travel biscut, you are at +80 terrian neg.


Here is he interesting thing about terrain negotiation, if you have +50 terrain negotiotion, you do not crawl any faster than someone who has 0. you climb hills a LOT faster though. any terrain neg OVER 50 makes you crawl faster.

I tried the equipment switch while under cover, and it won't let us do that...

Oh group terrain negotiation tapes DO WORK. My +25 works just fine when my droid is grouped. I have no scout skills whatsoever and noSL skills.

I found the solution - you can unequip your weapon and crawl faster because you have no hinderance. You can then re-equip the weapon while remaining under cover.
