Thread: What do you guys do against CM's?

I tried everything i could think of. I can chase after the CM while getting a 500 dmg mind poisin every 3 seconds, or hide in a building while cursing off the CM. I learned one thing though, depending on where you get poisined, ( mind or body ) use the appropirate spice, like pop a pixie when health poisined, or pop a muon when it is mind poisined.
what do you guys normally do?
While in PvE, I usually fight primarily with Master Swordsman/Master Brawler and use Rifle as a backup, in PvP, I do the opposite. So I am usually at range when I see them. If I can get a few shots in before they can poison me, I can drop them even if they poison me. But either way, if they are not nearly dead when I see the poison indicator in my status bar, I immediately hit burst run. The truth is, if you are in a battle with more than just the CM, if you get mind poisoned, even if you kill the CM, you are going to die if you stay. Guaranteed. Just get away, get rid of the poison, and come back when you are at full strength. Muon, and brandies, will only help you last a couple of ticks, and if there is a rifleman present or the CM is also a rifleman, your mind will be gone in no time.
Poisons are way overpowered right now. It is much better to run and deprive them of the DB or even the satisfaction of seeing you incapped, then come back and kill them on your terms.
