Adrenaline strategies

[legacy-dev]

I know this sounds like a noob question, but what are your strategies with adrenaline? Do you activate agility and run away with the opponents flag or hit speed and use your heavy to destroy an opponent? Post any of your tactics here. I really only seem to use adrenaline like regenerate in combat, but I lose most of my games anyways... :)

it depends on wheta char u use

[legacy-Arkitekt]

I think it depends on a combination of your style of play and the situation at hand.

[legacy-Junior]

For the most part HEAL HEAL HEAL! Thats all I use really. Selket's (sp?) flash is VERY useful also. But I'd just rather heal myself constantly than anything else.

anubis is my primary character so i just heal or burst

[legacy-Vintoks]

I like baiting those players who use a lot of speed and melee near ledges then jump off and watch them follow me over into the abyss thanks to their lock-on while I nimble back up... very entertaining.

[legacy-Junior]

^^^that has to be HILARIOUS to do to people. Its like in lock out when you side step a sword guy and they go flying over the edge. Good times indeed.

[legacy-Digininja]

I use Brock as the anti Melee char. Use Wraith, Ethereal, and Vampire for astonishing results.

[legacy-Terror]

Yeah I agree... Brock is def the best character to use if you hate being meleed.

[legacy-Cream-of-l337]

^^^ I think that's why i'm gonna start liking playing as Brock a lot more :)

lauren is the same sept she can be better to pull off CDG's best thing i used was Vampire and wraith. ethereal can be countered if u concentrait on the invisable image.

[legacy-ra1n]

not to be spamming but also siphon and udamage make great effects, also try shooting them while siphon is happening i donno but it looked like it added more health. im not sure about it i'll have to test it more.

Warrior spirit is awesome. It reduces damge done to you, you can see invis (includes ethereal). You run faster and attack faster as well. One of my favorite moves is to use warrior spirit as I approach a group of opponents then I just unload with my Flak cannon and send a wall of steel in front of me.....once i get to the pack i jump charge into the group and hit burst it usually kills whoever is in range after that.

I try not to waste my adrenalin on heals. I mostly use warrior spirit and burst on Annubis (sometimes i dump the burst idea and stack warrior spirit with repulse it makes it very hard to kill me).

With Malcom i usually just use sentinel or homing if I am going into a fight in an offensive fasion...but if someone gets the jump on me I use Iron Spirit and Heal if i take too much damage to fight my way out. Most times I try to stay on the offensive.

With Brock...its all about Wraith and Vampire (Works great with Bio Rifle poison cloud) I use ethereal when there are headhunting snipes in the game.

As far as speed and nimble...situation dictates. Speed for when a heavy gets too close and I am low on health and nimble when I want to get verticle the fast way to either get to a higher spot or two rain down flak/rockets on the people below.

I use speed liberally on lights....the faster they are the better they need to keep moving.

[legacy-baalzhebub]

hate being melee'd? use a bio rifle, only morons miss a pounce shot with a bio.

[legacy-Spartan_15]

lmao
true...But you can always do a jumpcharage attack...but i quess then you will be an easyier target....ummm

[legacy-Holy_Avenger]

Or, here's a thought. Don't pounce attack, just reflect them or shield them. (Shielding bio-rifle will reflect it.

[legacy-Spartan_15]

ahhhhh...maybe your right

[legacy-cry_to_the_heavens]

its not a suprise i dont use Flash with Selket, it doesnt work on the bots. so i use Warrior Spirit and Heal alot.

[legacy-Murphy]

[...]Flash with Selket, it doesnt work on the bots[...]
^^ HEY EPIC: Another thing to fix. Smokegrenades, flashgrenades, and Selkets Flash. Everytime I use those things on a bot in any given game and he doesn´t seem to be effected by it I wonder why. This can´t be too hard to program.

[legacy-laurenrules]

I hate facing the bio-rifle, especially if you just spanwed, I find that the pistols are just ok, I use them for freezing, otherwise I'm unsheathing my sowrds, the bio-rifle retreat is an interesting tactic though, if someone runs at you with a sowrd, fire the bio-rifle mist in front of you and flip off some walls to escape, and don't stop shooting, this works quite well.
