With a lower accuracy and defense than the spy I'm sure they do.... oh wait, no they don't. Let me say this again, with hacker stats (ie +50% to thrown defense) and using Aikido grab I dodge a little less than half of the knife attacks tha...

Syntax would own all of you, no doubt about it. If we found a way to have a shared construct to fight on we could just use the existing archives for it (Yuki, Ashencourte, 10, Sakura, Widow's Moor, 01) and just change the archive each serv...

So nearly all of us are in agreement that Passive thrown defenses need to be added to hacker, and a lot have also noticed that hacker has lots of useless passive defenses. So lets replace the useless ones with Thrown Defense. These are jus...

Maybe the lowbies, but in PvP nearly all the lvl 50's do.

Yet ANOTHER reason why the devs need to look closely at MKT. And SolidRevolver, you are completely wrong.... they don't need to add more. Right now Thrown Resistance % bonuses don't even WORK and Thrown Defense % bonuses don't even EXIST....

Your points about Pacification Zones are completely worthless. The devs pacified a few clubs, not entire districts. If the devs went and pacified all of Richland and Westview on Vector I believe people would be rather more cheesed. How abo...

Is there something I have missed? Could someone perhaps PM me the gist of whats happened cause I am so freakin confused.

If your on Syntax I can whip up a copy and email it to yah, what's your name in game?

ATM I feel MKT still stands a very good chance against hackers. As a hacker I smash gunners quite regularly with little effort, but MKT's are a much greater challenge for me. Due to Hackers lacking Passive thrown defense and MKT's having a...

I have used a UM build in PvP, some people don't know how to fight it and get smashed, some people know exactly how to fight UM's and end up smashing me, its about tactics used.

Some may argue that its not as severe as the /face issue cause it doesn't autotrack on them and you can't combine it with NUMLOCK to Zero in on them. Also its easy to know if someone is tracking you cause you will see the emote in the syst...

Duels: I have a fun little Ballista/Despoiler LO I use. PvP: Vector/Ballista (Ya I know, it's not very original) or Destroyer/Howitzer

I have every abil in the game (Levelled to 50 aswell, we should form an exclusive club ) and I still have enough room for 40 of every code bit, 20 of every red frag (Except for Awakened Subs and patches) and an entire replacement wardrobe...

Or you could nerf spy, *shrugs*

Ok, lots of people seem confused about what we are discussing or are on different pages, there are a lot of ideas in the air atm and a lot of them are true but we haven't compressed them into a cognitive form, these are the Repro actions I...

Hit me up in game and I'll be happy to have a chat over a beer or two, send a tell to Pylat. My faction RP's, is starting to get involved in the PvP scene and once our leader gets back from her holiday (Should be today, YAY!) we'll start r...

They should still scare the *poop* out of you, but they shouldn't blow you away in two shots, keep them super powerful but at least give people a bit of a fight before they go down, not 6 seconds.

But its not just state requiring attacks. I am having hax in IL fail. They don't require states, but they just randomly stop working.

I don't think its linked to any specific abilities, the only common factor is that they are all used in IL or result in you entering IL. OOL they are fine but for some reason in IL they just don't work.

This doesn't affect just your hotbar. Even using consumables by double clicking them in your inventory or using abils from the abilities menu can break them. And it seems to occur randomly, sometimes the abil breaks right away, sometimes I...

I demand a Hotfix!

I agree, and its affecting more and more things. When levelling my alt my consumables stopped working (Pills, boosters, Stakes, water and silver bullets). Now abils don't even bother to register. I click on it and nothing, I mean NOTHING h...

Lets all sit back, take a deep breath, and 2 weeks after Update 50 goes live revisit this thread ok? We aren't sure how much of an effect this update is going to have, so we need to just be patient. As much as I want to see Spies accuracy...

It follows a pretty simple cycle. For some time after a reboot the DT lag is low, after 1-3 days the lag suddenly goes through the roof and the center of DT becomes unplayable. For some reason during the Halloween event the DT lag didn't k...

Indeed, this is very annoying, especially when chasing people.

So let me get this straight RemagDiv, you are claiming you can pwn all hackers 1v1, but yet they are also extremely overpowered? The world will be a much better place when people actually try to make sense.

There is a sneaky little trick you can use to Circumvent the 1 DPS of hacker style. I have been teaching a faction mate to be a hacker since he was a lvl 8, he's now lvl 24 and takes on fully buffed sims and opponents 2 levels higher than...

What sort of tree do you want to use? I would advise dumping 30 into the attribute for accuracy. Though a lot of people are in favour of the 30/30 dump (30 into acc, 30 into damage) this leaves you with very poor defenses and makes you eas...

No offence people, but if someone is exploiting it doesn't mean the tree should be nerfed. People can exploit a double punt (and its freakin easy to do), does that mean MKT should be nerfed on that basis alone. They're called exploits, so...
