Ban this sick filth. I'm always paranoid about the trees on Hossin and I'm constantly looking up for anime in the trees. It is never there though. Not once have I been killed by this or seen a sniper camping out. I was privy to it as a HA though. That was fun until I ran out of ammo. Only one TR saw me, then forgot about me apparently.

This is what gets me, I wouldn't even bother with getting a LA out. Most of those trees seem like they have no footholds to recharge on until you get to the top. And the ones that do would get you killed for the amount of time you have to spend in the open. It seems like the best way to combat it would be to try to counter-snipe, or drop pod into the tree as well if you don't mind announcing your presence.

Give my sunderer chainsaws on the front and let me chop down trees. Hossin will be a barren wasteland within the hour.

One dead wookie later the problem is solved.

I only ever see LAs sitting in trees, and it's those odd lone trees out in the middle of a field where they are likely to never see another player. I notice them because I have Thermals on my Lightning and just use HEAT to send them on their way. I finally maxed out Racer on my Lightning the other day and it's now my go-to ride when playing VS, you can climb some silly hills if you're at speed and get into some fun spots. I'm sure a Magrider could also climb a hill but the Lightning is actually useful once it gets to the top and isn't made of balsa wood.

kalstrams posted:What defensive stuff is nowdays good on Lightnings ? Proximity Radar for skyguards since you tend to spend more time in first-person looking up and also because when you dare to shoot at a skyg0d they will send LAs to C4 you. Auto repair for everything else so you can duck into cover and shrug off lockons and any tank silly enough to want to stay at 100m+ trading shots.

kalstrams posted:What defensive stuff is nowdays good on Lightnings ? NAR is still good since the Lightning is tiny. Vehicle Stealth is good for ambushing other vehicles, you can 1v1 1/2 MBTs if you play it smart. Prox radar is the best for farming mans since eventually someone is going to ragepull a LA, redeploy to an adjacent base, and jog 5 miles along the countryside to C4 you. You'll notice him long before he's near you.

NAR is still brokenly good on Lightnings. If you're an engineer, it's hilarious how much it helps with keeping your downtime limited to ammo resupply runs. Also lol @ AC. My only experience with them is being TK'd by them after popping them back after one of their dudes stared me down and popped me one. lmao. My shatter camo must've confused them I was a sparkly giraffe idk.

sitchelin posted:Vehicle Stealth is good for ambushing other vehicles, you can 1v1 1/2 MBTs if you play it smart. Stealth is really amazing. The effect isn't as immediately noticeable as scout radar or auto-regen but at the max level you just completely disappear from radar and lose the red ENEMY icon above your tank unless they literally point at you and manually spot you, and even then you disappear from the map as soon as they lose line of sight. It turns out that a whole ton of players rely on that floating icon to acquire targets, especially on non-faction specific hardware. I've had so many enemies drive right past me like I wasn't even there, I've had enemy vehicles and even air stop nearby to jump out and repair, and I get harassed way less by ESFs. http://gfycat.com/HeavenlyDifferentGordonsetter

Like with cell phones and DVRs, there's life before discovering Stealth and there's life after, and once you start using it you're hooked for life so be prepared. There's a lot of times on my AP/AP Vanguard that it feels pretty much like cheating

If you have max Stealth (or are outside whatever range your rank of Stealth supports), do you still appear as a big ping on the minimap as soon as you open fire?

It's available, but I think you missed the 50% off - IIRC it was the first one to be discounted.
