Help! The only merc I ever get to play is medic...


(pnellesen) #1

Because in 90% of the matches I join right now, my team usually consists of an even split between Vasilli, Rhino, and Bushwacker (with the odd Nader thrown in now and then.)

On the bright side, I’m getting pretty good at direct hits with medpacks, and getting Revive sprees every match :wink:


(JohnzBallad) #2

Me too. I’m also learning a lot with Sawbonez.

I hear you on that. I’ve always got a medic in squad in case no one else in my team is running with one. I like to play as a medic but it’s nice to play as other mercs.

You never have to play anything in a pub. That’s kind of the beauty of them. Winning and losing doesn’t mean anything and it barely effects your credit gain. If you feel like playing medic, do it. And if you feel like sitting in a corner waiting for one guy every 10 minutes to shoot at as Vassili, go for it.

Yeah - I actually like playing support roles, so it’s no biggie. This was meant to be more of a humorous observation of the current free rotation than anything else :wink:

Though it is kind of satisfying to come in 1st or 2nd place on the scoresheet and have an absolutely abysmal K/D (one thing I like about this game)

I doubt the rotation has much to do with it. Every player in the game gets Aura for free with no strings attached. Although the next rotation should have Sparks if they follow previous patterns. :slight_smile: Don’t get your hopes up though. I doubt very many people will play her for too long. Very squish without the benefit that Aura gets from her station.

Yup. Sparks will most likely be in the rotation next time around and I’d guarantee she doesn’t get much play from the majority of people. She has a high skill cap, is super squishy and everyone is going to be trying to play instagib and that isn’t an extremely viable option without a lot of skill in this game.

if Revivr can gib, I’d be all over her

It can if it deals enough overdamage. Headshotted a weakened Skyhammer with a full charge(130 dmg) and it finished the skyhammer like a sniper would.


(MissMurder) #10

No worries- they won’t be in the rotation forever :slight_smile:

thats not a particularly likely scenario though.

True, but she can still be handy in a fight sometimes. I still cringe when I think about how ineffective she can be in a fight.

I will say that the weirdest match I had with her I went 2/0 and was still second place on the team… (Held enemy on first objective in Obj mode). It was… interesting…

I’ve went 0/0 and been first :slight_smile: (Though it was before Sparks was released)
