All Things Aimee ~ Megathread(Post here!)

[quote=“EdSir;166201”]I personally don’t care that much about secondaries on Aimee since none of them are machine pistols. [/quote]Good god would she be OP if she had the Empire-9 or something. Throw the Snitch down near the enemy and just shoot them dead while they’re debilitated.

(LoliGagging) #82

With the new sniper balances, Quick Eye augment is very good on scoped weapons. I just go with any loadouts with those when I use the felix or pdp

(Ctrix) #83

What’s the difference between MoA and Felix anyways. Like, in praxis.

(Ardez1) #84

Not much honestly. The fire rate is a bit better on the MOA. The difference with the Felix when in Aimee’s hands is much bigger.

The Felix does 79 damage on a bodyshot. If an enemy is hit by the snitch it deals 1 damage. Any 80 health merc can be 1 shot to the body if hit by the snitch(before or after). If they are hit by the snitch before she shoots based on the damage bonus it could 1 shot body shot 90 or 100 health. Not sure what the bonus is and I haven’t tested it yet. I don’t know if it will 1 shot 100 health but I highly doubt it could do 110.

On the other end headshots with the Felix do 158 damage which means Everything 150 or less is a potential 1 shot from death. The Moa will be a little tougher to kill high health mercs, BUT there is more room for error with the better fire rate.

@Ctrix @Ardez

Biggest difference is just the accuracy. The fact that MOA is always better than Fel is because of just one thing, with MOA : 100% accuracy even when you are moving left or right.

Moving shot is always able with MOA, when the Fel isn’t.

100% accuracy with Fel only applies when you stand still.

MOA was even better when the Jump shot was available.

Fel still can’t one shot Thunder and Rhino just like MOA without any debilitating, so Fel is only useful with Aimee or Vassili with Fel shooting the weakened target.

Other than that, Fel has +1 more mag, slightly thicker bullet.

@ThunderPro Does that accuracy comment still apply with the change to snipers?

•Removed all scope-sway while moving, making it easier to aim on the move
•Removed random cross-hair offset adjustment that occurred as players were scoping-in

Removal of scope sway helped PDP the most, which shoots multiple times during scoping.

second one is the MOA. You will still miss your shot with the Felix while moving left and right since the Fel’s moving shot’s RNG was NEVER removed.

you always have to stay still to put your shot at the middle unlike MOA.

Odd, I never had any issues with it last night on Aimee… I’ve only used the felix on her so far.

(Tanker_Ray) #89

@Ardez

That’s why most of the Vassilis don’t prefer Felix over MOA.

So what I thought about balancing those two was reducing MOA’s damage in to 60 so that you can still one shot the others but not the male Assault, since MOA can one shot any one under Thunder even including Fragger.

Well now with Aimee, you can eventually expect a instant kill when shooting weakened Thunder’s head with Fel-IX, or body shot killing the weakened female mercs(except Nader) or even +100HP mercs. (I still don’t have any idea how much damage increase the SNITCH does. I saw her PDP’s single shot to skyhammer did exactly half of his health(60), so 45+15 = 133.333333…% damage increase is what I’m assuming.)

(Ardez1) #90

@ThunderPro Was there a vassili convention since the patch 2 days ago to determine the Moa still had the best accuracy rather than them being tied? The sniper change I mentioned was in that patch… :stuck_out_tongue:

I will need to do some testing tonight.

(Tanker_Ray) #91

@Ardez hmm… I’m afraid it was never changed.

Even if the Fel is finally able to do some moving shots, it still had slower bullet speed and RoF.

Only thing that I can sure about Fel is, it is only best with Aimee, not Vassili.

Unless Vassili shoots the debilitated target that other Aimee in the team did.

(Tanker_Ray) #92

I just noticed merc role call’s Aimee got 112 combat XP with two shots of PDP to weakened Skyhammer. Stop her merc role call vid at 1:13 and check it out.

So single shot = 56 damage, which is 124.444444…% but it is more close to 125%, since DB’s calculation system is round half down.(56.25 if 25% increase. you do not count 0.25.)

I am very sure about the percentage right now.

Fel-IX’s body shot should be 99(98.75), and 197 if head shot a Rhino, if I’m right.

with 25% damage increase, you can one shot 110HP merc with PDP’s headshot(90 x 1.25 = 112), and 100HP merc with Grandeur’s headshot(Exactly 100).

(Dawnlazy) #93

I’d like it if the Fel-ix could one-shot any deployable and also do bonus damage to objectives since it’s an anti-materiel rifle. I’m using it with Bomb Squad so I’m constantly trying to destroy enemy things, I feel like such a buff could perhaps make it more than just a downgrade from the MOA.

(CCP115) #94

Do you guys think the SNITCH should be way more obvious on the environment? IMO it’s just plain too hard to see, and is frustrating to look for, making Bomb Squad a must have.

(Herr_Hanz) #95

i never noticed any walking inaccuracies between the moa and felix. and the best loadout for aimee is definetly the felix quick eye for vassili snipers, else its the PDP. quick eye is the best thing. headshotting a strafing sparks is hard, try headshotting a scoped in aimee with quick eye.

and with the faster scoping speed + no random aim sway while scoping in quickscoping is a lot more viable.

the moa is the best on vassili even though i like the felix more. purely based on looks, i would like to try the moa scope on the felix though. might be an improvement

the felix has more potential now its used by aimee against vassili’s moa

(terminal) #96

Well since the Snitch can’t detect through walls like the heart beat sensor can, I think it’s pretty fair.
Just run behind a wall and then you’re fine.

(Jesus) #97

Are you kidding me when the thing zaps you you take 1 damage.
There is reasons for that, and the first one is that it gives you an indication of the direction where the thingy is. Look in that direction up and down. Spot the bright red light and your done.

(Serene) #98

In the matches I play, the snitch is completely useless lol. As soon as it tags me or any of my teammates, it get shot out within 2 seconds, no matter where the enemy tosses it. And no matter where my teammates or I toss it, as soon as it tags the first person, it gets immediately destroyed within 2 seconds as well.

Also, con someone tell me how to make a new thread, I need to report a bug.
