Obsidian Phoenix

(darlingClaymore) #1

Hello, I already own phoenix and have loadout CR82 boosted operative, will my obsidian card come with this loadout?

(Yes) #2

No, it will be KE81.

The card and loadout in the pic is the same one that everyone will get.

And it is a decent card as well.
I think it’s in the top 3 phoenix cards

Isn’t the best but it definitely isn’t bad.

I am really excited considering the closed beta obsidian I have at the moment is collecting dust. It’ll be nice to have a usable obsidian card!

A medic card without Get Up is a card that is wasted.

Well, with Phoenix it’s hard to say that. The loadout in the obsidian does really help with healing and the cards with get up have no other healing perks. I do prefer the one with the hochfir and get up though.

Yeah, it would be better if it was KE73 but hey, not gonna look a gift horse in the mouth. Probably gonna use it anyway cause sweet sweet obsisdian

(Jostabeere) #9

Well. 22K CR in 1 day. 28K togo to sweet Phoenix.

In case of Phoenix you have to choose between better reviving and better healing. KE73 and CR43 have Get Up but no healing perks. This Obsidian KE81 both reduces cooldown and increases power of the healing pulse. I’d say it’s a matter of preference and playstyle. Phoenix is supposed to be in the fray so there’s often no time to charge paddles, it’s better to tap and do the rest with healing pulse.

@MarsRover
I agree with you, though i am really sad it had to be a card with the hochfir smg, that gun sucks IMO.

(MarsRover) #12

It doesn’t if you can keep it on the enemy’s head :slight_smile: It’s my second favourite SMG ex eaquo with Crotzni.

(DarkangelUK) #13

I may be alone in this but I love the Hochfir, with its high fire rate pinning it to someone’s head zaps their health down very quickly.

(Bestfinlandball) #14

Plus the continuous ding sound is satisfying as f**k. :smiley:

(Mister__Wiggles) #15

The hochfir is a solid smg. It’s similar to the blishlok in a way, both guns require high accuracy and you will be punished for missing your shots more than the crotzni and kek. I used to hate the hochfir but update after update it gets buffs and right now it’s an absolute laser beam. Oh and the headshot ding is so satisfying.

(Bestfinlandball) #16

There’s nothing i could add to that

It’s in your head, in reality It’s still lower dps than any other SMG except the Blishok. It also has the least range of all SMGs.

But it has a great accuracy which means that you can hit more of the shots.

Im afraid I just don’t agree with that. I really think he would get more mileage out of making his heal better. As it stands by default, you really don’t get much out of it. Which is fine, that just makes him the least medical out of the medics. In return he gets the self revive.

Buffing that heal gives him (and whoever happens to be around him) more survivability. And you will, on occasion, have the time to full charge your paddles. Which is more than enough to get most mercs back into fighting shape.

the obsidian loadout comes after 28th ?
