Iā€™m gonna be honest Iā€™ve won my games and havenā€™t had a problem with Rhino. The real problem Iā€™ve had is that thereā€™s always 3 Bushwhackers. If thereā€™s only 1 or 2 Bushwhackers then itā€™s fine. Once it exceeds 3 it get ridiculous with triple turrets in one area covering a bomb or something. Being an arty makes it fine on open maps but in closed places it really is hard to play against without a nader or fragger which I donā€™t own either of.

Try Skyhammer. If his marker doesnā€™t take the turret out, itā€™ll leave it with so little HP that another hit or two will be enough.

the problem as usual is merc stacking. too many rhinos but people donā€™t play enough explosives (fletcher, fragger and nader) and people arenā€™t that ā€œgoodā€ at snipers". also. the game is flooded with newbies that donā€™t know how agile they are and just stand still and face the rhinos head on. in time people will hopefully learn to adapt.

Play Fragger or Nader. Fragger is currently being given away on the website PCgamer, google the E3 merc giveaway. Rhino has counters, like Greg said the turret has counters. Simply use them.

i think they should only have support mercs in the free rotation tbh,anything else puts people off the obj and ends up with teams of vasā€™s and Rhinos when 1 of each per team would suffice

I agree that this rotation is brutal. Iā€™ve been looking forward to Sparks but sheā€™s not a combat merc by any stretch of the imagination. My k/d is frightful after being mowed down over and over.

Really? Bushwhacker is pretty easy to counter. The turret is fragile as heck, and after that heā€™s just a regular shooterman.

Rhino + Aura is a pretty good combo against pub teams. Just try to have an assault merc in your rotation (heck, just pull Rhino in response).

My gripe is all the frickinā€™ Vasilis. Iā€™ve had multiple 6v6 games where everyone on my team was a sniper except for me. ><
