Daynor Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 either force push him away or turn on absorb if you switch on absorb, you drop from his grip (thats whats its called btw, force grip) and gain some force on your force meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HertogJan Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Yup, nothing to add... And oh yeah, it's not lame, just another force power that you can counter easily... But don't counter it when hanging above a biiiig hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con. Snake Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Countered easily assuming he didn't completely drain you first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuroshi Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Countered easily assuming you don't let him drain you first, or you drain him instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamers are spamming this move way too much. DA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacenSolo2001 Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 There's nothing lame about it, learn to keep out a situation where it's used on you, or take them with you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabermouse Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Force Drain works well here too. get back whatever damage you take and bring his grip to a quick end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Yep. I have "F" key bind to Force Absorb. Hit that instantly as soon as you get grabbed. Then he doesn't have time to put you over a big hole. Also some people don't know that you can turn OFF absorb after he loses his grip. They just leave Absorb on the whole time and the other guy just have to wait for your force meter to go to zero. Then you are a sitting duck. So toggle Absorb on and off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soul-Burn Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Yup... just like spidey said. And if u'r using dark, then u can only pull/push... and like Kuroshi said... u on a big hole, u pull them, u both die. U absorb/push and only u die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith knight Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 Good grippers keep moving or even jumping when they grip you so that you can't push or pull them. So the best way is be a jedi and use absorb. Use it often and stop it immediately after you are out of the danger. Grip is one of the best ways to stop flag takers in CTF, learn this and you know this is handy but not lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMexican Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 jumping/moving as a gripper does **** all. force pull/push have large cones of effect, so accuracy isnt very important. grip then a fast flick and release to throw someone off something high or into a wall works well, otherwise it's only good vs newbies hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamers are spamming this move way too much. DA Yeah, there's not much of a counter for it. That really sucks. Lame. Know what else ther isn't a counter for? Being dead. That sucks too. I mean just cause somone managed to grip my ass and move it over a pit without me pushing them, absorbing them, throwing my saber at them or pulling them, and just cause someone managed to beat my ass in a saber match and kill me, doens't mean i should have to die right? Man, lamers are spamming this whole killing me thing waaay too much. I must have died 20 times last game. Sigh oh well, not much we can do till the patch i guess.

Hiteche5 Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 I get the sarcasm :thumbs: I used to be upset at grippers but now I find them harmless...now the drainers...they scare me and mess me up too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leelink Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Once you get good enough you will find that its not that hard to keep you from draggin you to the edge. I usaully encourage it so that just before they get me to the edge i force pull them and down they go. It takes them a second to lock on and move you. Believe me, In that second you can force pull them even before you have moved an inch. (except if they are behind you, best thing to do if that happens is try to take them with you) Do this and I gaurantee they will stop gripping you. Works for me anyway.
