Pol Favre Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 im a sabrejockey. i love it, that's most all i do is duel servers. but, sometimes i want a nice relaxing frag-fest. but when i go to FFA servers, i end up using my sabre anyway, cos most everyone else is and the only way to defend against sabre is with sabre. does anyone else feel like this or is it just me? im thinking about starting an ffa server today and just kicking people if they go sabre the whole time.

thrEEpaGe Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 lol! dude the only way to defend against saber in ffa is with a gun =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pol Favre Posted April 17, 2002 Author Share Posted April 17, 2002 how so? you can't block a sabre with a gun, and it's hard to shoot someone with a sabre cos of the block power. i guess if you turn off force, that'd help some... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Seph Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Use the blaster on alt. fire up close and no Jedi stands a chance , not that quick to dodge and block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiori Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Use the area damage guns like that projectile gun that shoots blue energy in second mode. Chiori btw. Blaster and the first gun Kyle uses are easy to evade just run from left to right and back in alternating speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrEEpaGe Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 dude...get good at guns...trust me...sabers dont compare to guns at all....i could own any saberist, no matter the skill, and i know the consciously good saberists realise this (as do most classic fps gunners) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lnt. Kechtt Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 With sabreists I always had fun and let them try to rule the level and find a nice high ledge overlooking their favorite "clash" points and take a nice look-see through the disruptor's scope. Charge it up and let it rip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps2maddenman Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 If I have a gun I will shoot people in the back or at the crowd of saber fanatics and get a couple of free kills in a FFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvlos Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 On pure FFA, if I dont have a good gun and I get a window of opportunity I will PULL a gun out of a gunners hand. Only time this backfires is if they have 2-3 good guns, then you gotta pull then a few times and hack them up... Area effect guns own Jedi unless the Jedi runs, jumps and uses protection. Too many people just jump in with DF powers and forget that Prot counters all guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monnnster Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 You could "own any saberist"? Ah, ok... but what happens when you have nothing but a blaster because your gun got yanked? Or when you get a suicide from blasting yourself with flechette grenades? Sure, you can own n00b saberists, but I doubt that many "consciously good saberists" will agree with you. I happen to be one, and the only time I get "owned" by a gunner is when I don't see them or am already low on health. And BTW, I use every method at my disposal to kill, so I don't consider myself a pure saberist. The only way to win at this game is to use all methods, not just one.

thrEEpaGe Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 riiight....actually you dont live long enough to realise where i am, and it is much harder to steal my weapon in application btw, i think you are misunderstanding my meaning of the types of saberists i was referring to...but, i have never lost to a saberist when i was using guns....and i dont play newbies....they are annoying... it is also much harder to use hte force when you are being drained =) just an observation....

UniKorn Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 When I don't have decent guns, I use my saber. But once I get a decent one, guns will be what I use. And if he is with his back at me, he'll get guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pol Favre Posted April 17, 2002 Author Share Posted April 17, 2002 if i were one to brag about what i 'own', i'd say i 'own' those who use stuff heavy shot weapons, like flechette guns, rocket launcehrs, and plasma bursts. you need only tap force push, and it knocks it right back at them.

thrEEpaGe Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 you cant aim push you run out mana much faster than i run out of ammo i use drain you lose saberists dont have a very large chance... btw, i dont like the RL or FC in JO.....i like the repeater secondary much better...

Robbiesan Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Yeah, heavy repeater alt fire whoops arss.. I've used it to take out 4-5 players in a row before biting the bullet... sabres are fun but not much good in a close battle against heavy repeater or flechette..

thrEEpaGe Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 in a ffa, saberists are really screwed, but in a ffa duel (dont ask me what this is...if you dont know it just proves my point) saberists have a small chance, but not a good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
