Would have made the arrows a lot nicer if you could actually use a thermal ops pack.
But no. They turned that off. Which in my opinion is why he sucks. You can never keep them stocked if you actually want to use it on higher difficulties. Condor? HA.

and I would take that over a Jugg who never heavy melees, never drops a shield, spams siege pulse and finishes a distant last on the scoreboard. 

But I'd take them all over an AIU with a Kishock I who apparently specced out of repair matrix. 

The horror. The horror.

You know I remember a wise man saying this was the most OP power in the game when others were saying the character sucked all together.

The amount of Cain Mines I see on the floor sticking up hurts me.

No, spec out of fitness and cry more.

I specced concussive arrows to give me more mines. It's fun and very playable on platinum, whereas I struggled to make the bow work above gold

Easy fix. Kick any Talon from your lobby if your ego can't take getting outscored. It should be much easier than making another whine thread on the BSN forums.

How the **** do they keep up with all those grenades supply?


Assault gear. 10 grenades at base, 90 in reserve + regen and ammo boxes.

"Spam Cain mines into groups of enemies."

I'm guessing the group of enemies died.....horribly. You would prefer they take a much slower approach to killing things?

He is my favourite engineer, I play him really defensively because his Omni-bow is just so good at ranges, he can constantly hit close to krolord levels of melee damage at long range with homing even if they are outside of the orange box range.

However I have no problem without people who like to spam mines if they can do that and not go down every few minutes then more power to them, but if they do go down in a group of enemies they only have themselves to blame and I won't risk a gel or ops pack to go help them.

If he doesn't use his most powerful asset in my lobby he can leave. Spam those bad boys.
I will turn my pylon over to a Talon so he can spam more.

I love using the Talons Omni-Bow!

Cain Mines are only for emergencies! ^.^

I use them when there's a group of enemies surrounding a downed teammate, in a dire situation during objectives, and then on Extraction if a boss is in the Extraction Zone! ;D


I'm happy at least one other person on BSN understands how to use the Talon.  Cain mine spamming is rather noobish.

Yes, I agree. It's a crutch for terrible players! :whistle:

One possible reason you see more Cain mine spamming Talons than Omni-bow Talons is that the Omni-bow is a lot more difficult to use. The Talon is very squishy especially when you spec into melee instead of fitness Combined with the fact that the Talon is quite exposed when firing the Omni-bow, the Talon can go down quite a lot.

Further, being projectiles, the arrows can be glitchy off-host.

Why does it have to be a crutch for only bad players? I consider myself a fairly decent player and I spam the hell out them.

I was being facetious. I guess the smiley doesn't convey that well.

......ahhhh forget it.

I will take a guess and say that most of the people that don't like the Talon using Cain mines, are playing bronze/silver. On those difficulties everything works, there is no need to spam Cains.

Random games on gold/plat, you can usually assume 2 of the people will suck, so using a Talon and spamming Cains is typically necessary, just like using a GI or TGI.

Yeah see, the Talon is so squishy when specced for Omnibow and arrow use, that EVERY fight is an emergency.  :P
