Phoenix Loadouts - Gun over perks?

(Vypers) #1

Ive tried all three guns , and imo I like crotzni (kek10 being second)the most.
However the loadouts with crotzni does not have the extra supplies perk(20% cooldown on skill) which I feel without it I feel a noticable difference on how often i can heal.
For that reason im using the kek10 load out mainly for that ES perk even though I feel i do better with crotzni.
Im wondering what would you guys do? guns over perks or the other way round?

It’s always weapons over perks for me.

Is this coming from someone who plays a medic class occassionally? i say this because as an assault/support class i would easily say weapons over and perks, but as a medic i’d say its a split decision to either go more supportive or aggressive

Phoenix is built as an offensive medic. I’ve played Aura, Sparks, and Proxy for a combined time of over 107 hours and I can easily say that Phoenix is meant to kill, unlike what I usually play. Phoenix has good primaries, which makes him more offensive than Aura or Sparks (in terms of guns) and self-heals (yes, you CAN heal teammates, but you ALWAYS heal yourself too). With a decent amount of health, Phoenix doesn’t have to worry about getting killed too easily

You want extra supplies or potent packs, otherwise your cooldown will be too long to be an effective medic and you might as well be playing Sawbonez.

If you just want a merc that can out-sustain a firefight, and not be a medic, that doesn’t really matter and you can go for some combat perks instead. But you won’t be able to out-sustain the enemy team in that case.
