Thread: Re:Just curious, how did rifle knockdown work in PvP before the patch that made...
Oh hell yeah it did.
My technique used to be to start off witha spraystick. Suppression fire 1, flurry shot 1 in two seconds. The confused target would 90% (the other 10% were skilled, level-headed imperial riflemen)of the time attempt to gain range as a natural panic response. Of course, they don't pay attention to the fact that I dizzy shot them right after I brought their posture down. Woooops! Head over heals they'd fall, suckers to auto attacks at that point.
That said, combat before the KD timer was retarded. I only attacked in such a matter because I had no clue who was who, and for all I know, my target could be a BH or a pistoleer ready to spam me with KDs over and over until I'm dead. Even thought it took away my technique, the nerf was a welcome change. That doesn't mean that PvP still isn't broke though. Flame wounds, revenge TEFs, diseases, bleh, still retarded.
