Bombers by the way were for the same reason because Geth were farmed by camping so much, so they introduced those. Cover based shooter that they do not want you in cover for. Biower pls. 

 

Yes? 

 

Oh. Bombers. The problem is not the bombs, those are slow. The problem is that effin shock stagger thing  :wacko:

Not to mention that most if not all powers miss them entirely.

 

Excellent coding Biower! :wizard:

I never had a problem with Turrets and Atlases. Atlas missiles are annoying, but hard cover negates them, Atlases are slow as molasses, have an enormous hitbox and shooting the cockpit destroys them pretty quickly. Turrets don't have a lot of durability and can't exist if you kill the Engineers first. Phantoms are pretty broken, yeah, but Goons aren't so bad. He's a pretty balanced enemy. His powers are deadly in CQC but you can either run past him or dodge. His ranged damage is solid but nothing crazy, and his accuracy isn't particularly good, either. He can't ignore powers, and he can be staggered. And he doesn't have a sync kill.

 

Can be staggered, yes. But how much success you have with that is another story. Isn't this part of the reason why they are called lolLagoons? I know it is for me.

Sometimes they don't stagger, but it's more of a random chance than them just denying everything. Meanwhile Phantoms are like

If you really want to know, send a message to Eric Fagnan or Jos Hendricks or Mark Scchanche (#spelling).  The statute of limitation has probably expired on 'secret' info like this.  Or you might catch them in a moment of nostalgic generosity.  We haven't had a dev op in here in ages.

What if goons had a sync kill? How would they be like to fight against?

I wonder what such a sync kill would look like.

They do their Smash animation which knocks you to the floor. One of their tentacles wraps around your neck while he places a foot on your head. Then he pulls up, choking you/breaking your neck. Sync kill. The end. Cue raging.

Phantoms only ever zerg rush when there are a lot of things around. But then again, that's just in my experience.

 

Personally I'd like to know where the Dragoon got his Hornet. The stability on that thing is tremendous.

 

Dragoons do not have any AP or extended mags or heat sinks on their Hornets.  They run the Stability Mod and the Super-Extended Barrel with 500% damage bonus.

 

Anyway, to parody somebody (Ben Franklin, I think?), Dragoons are proof that Bioware hates us and wants us to be miserable.

They were pretty much added to make it more difficult to camp. Bioware engaged in a pretty epic struggle against campers while the game was still being supported. They also probably noticed that the entire Cerberus faction was being carried almost completely by Phantoms, which, tbh, it still is.

Stasis effectively neutered Cerberus?

 

This was the main reason.

 

Yes?

So ****** true.

Do you also remember, that before they changed it, Dragoons were faster and spawning more? Oh, the days.... :wub:

I remember the first time seeing one thinking "look it's a honey badger how bad could they be?" And then it pushed in myshit :D

It matters not.

 

With lolgoons, we had the glorious Lord Venom bestowed upon us. 

 

All that was evil in this world is ragdolled to the sound of childlike laughter.

 

I liked this comment, even though I don't particularly like the Venom (presumably a L2P issue on my part, but true nonetheless), simply because having seen it used well I could feel this laughter welling up from deep inside my being.

 

Phantoms only ever zerg rush when there are a lot of things around. But then again, that's just in my experience.

 

Personally I'd like to know where the Dragoon got his Hornet. The stability on that thing is tremendous.

 

At one time several weeks ago I helped Mgamerz betatest a mod in which enemies had a chance to drop their weapons so you could pick them up and use them yourself.  Cerberus' raptor and mattock were very useable; geth turrets were impressive.  The dragoon's hornet, however, was incredibly disappointing; it felt like a Shuriken.

 

Best weapon?  Atlas cannon under the effects of a TSol's MM.  It felt like a fireworks show at Christmas.

Phantoms take cover, they often retreat when they take damage and cloak. That at least demonstrates some self-preservation and tactics.

Dragoons just rush. No cover, no nothing. Run and smash. I'm really surprised they occasionaly roll when they are hit.

Otherwise they behave like a T-1000.

phantoms used to do that before they got the bubble

Wouldn't you get sick of sitting on the sidelines the whole time watching your teammates have all the fun?

 

Seriously, though, Dragoons are major pushovers (unless there's 3+ in cqc with you...then things might get hairy). They're easy to hit as they approach and you can usually sidestep them at least once before the hornet **** hits the fan.

 

 

 

Sounds like sum ppl need to l2currybiggergunz :P
