Phase shift is ALWAYS goes, if you're going into a match with a rule agreed before hand not to use phase shift you're going into a match you might lose on a regen, if you use phase shift wisely, you will never never never never never never.. etc die on a regen. you're attacks are slotted well, heck you critted half my HP on your GFS which was sexeh, but you gotta get your playing style sorted, and timings sorted.

In RV, move, move move and more movement. Phase accordingly. Pop accordingly.

In Duels. all of the above, if someone is calling you a noob for moving to save time to get recon they are the bigger noob and probably are built for fiteklub and will get laughed at disgustingly in RV etc.

If you get laughed at for using Phase, lol back at them.

I am always reminded of the wise words of con. If you make them angry doing it, you are doing it right.


Duel me.
I will work on my sig pic more when I have time.

Took your advice didn't die this time in a duel with a claws/regen didn't die, but I couldn't kill him either. When my health went low and didn't have any of my clicks up I'd phase but his health would fill up again.

I'm not exactly sure how to balance offense and defense well enough to be able to keep myself alive and then kill my opponent.

Advice?

Played right a melee vs melee fight should always be a draw. Its kind of the reason most people kinda lul at fightclub.

I was laughing so hard though the guy was getting so pissed off that I'd move around and phase. Although I won't be so fortunate if I meet another regener with phase and has a lot more skill than me rofl!

a regen should draw or win any match.
even when it's two downie regins chasing each other around while doing bad damage to each other.

You won't kill a regen in a 1v1 unless he is really bad. Don't worry. It's your lucky day. 99.9% of regens who play this game are really bad.

Downie regens assemble! Well its nice to know that the advice is paying off and I've gone from a L1 downie to a L2 downie.

Another question

Recon at 3/4 DP at 1/2 and IH and MoG at 1/4?

If greens arn't in the equation, general markers I set for myself is Recon just under 3/4, DP at around 1/4 and MoG/IH if I don't have DP up and i've allready used Recon and its still recharing @ 1/4. But inbetween the insps popping and what not, those markers tend to change.

Wow, I must say, Thank You a ton Sant. I've read many of your posts and always informative, but this time you asked a question that sparked my interest immensely.

Been playing for a long time, issue 1 i believe (at 62 months vet time), and lately i've hit kind of a rut where it feels like im just showing up so to speak.
Feels like ive pretty much done it all over and over, except for a few things.
However, ive never tried a dedicated PvP toon. You, Sir, have re-sparked an interest and curiousity.
Actually, thanks to all that posted, it's all helpful and i'm gonna use it as well.
For the first time in forever, i created a character off my home of Pinn and made a scrapper on Freedom to learn as i go a little better.
Fantastic thread, Thanks Santorican.
Cya in RV in about 43 more lvls from now that is.

Don't base use of your heals on your HP percentage. Base it on the situation. Sometimes you need to use DP at 3/4 hp. Sometimes you may be better off using it at much less than that. Tailor your play-style to the situation.

While I 100% agree with that, general markers are general tbh.

waiting to 1/4 health to use any heal against things like corruptors and /em and /elec doms is a death sentence.

Bing. Not to mention, in a team match you will need to use your heals before your HP goes down at all, if the other team is even remotely competent.

Are you saying I have to anticipate the incoming damage as soon as it hits me?

If you ever face off against a PB/WS, surprise them with a temp Kheld gun. It's funny.

How important is superjump on a fire/regen? Can I get by with just SS+CJ+2 slotted Hurdle?

You can get by with it. It's nice having SJ though. I recently dropped incinerate for it on my fire/regen.


Anticipating incomming damage: Yes. Just keep an eye on your buff bar and on what is happening around you.
