In current state you need either blades or bullet time. Those are two most powerful skills. I think they will be nerfed. My frenzy-build can do nothing to them.

Huh? I kill them with a noob pistol and nuke.

I think you should just realize that, like most shooter games (even if it's 2d) each weapon has a function. If you're using a 'x' weapon, you fight those you will kill easily with it and run from those you wont.

For example, against bullet time, the best weapon is the SHAW and plasma if you have it. With the SHAW, you just stand near cover and hold your trigger down, when bullet time runs out the guy will become a swiss cheese. If not him whoever is behind him, since all the bullets will release at the same time.

Against blades, you want a pistol or a DE. Hold on to your shift and shoot like crazy. If the guy is distracted with someone else, any weapon will do.

Course one build or another will always be weaker against another. Like mana drain folks really fuck up my nuker, since I can't nuke. But otherwise, it all depends on the weapon you have at hand.

I wish this game was slower and tatical.

Right now blades + shield is a nobrainer.

I've seen some people use a combination invisiblity/dash/shockwave and kill people with only a knife. I respect those people.

How fast is regen maxed out or at higher levels? Is it enough to make waiting behind cover to regen feasible?
I have been down to almost zero gone then back to full in quite a reasonable time range. I have level 11 regen and I get 4.4hp/sec back.

Also on the clan tag I personally like bay12 but if everyone else I play with ends up being b12 then that is what I will be because of the xp bonus.

and it looks like people in a certain radius that are on my team get healed 2.2hp/sec

Regain builds are hard to deal with, if I wanted to restat it would be that, but I kinda like being a person of mass destruction

The problem is, the blade barrier blocks like 80% of knife damage, or maybe more. So you have to cut them 5-8 times, and they can cut you with two. So blades + knife is better than dash+knife.

I talk about high level. Low level skills are all okay, but at high level BT and blades become ridiculously strong.
And that after-death explosion of blades often takes people too. So blades are like... shield+damage+the last wish :P.

Actually i like vampire more than regen, it usually returns HP faster.

Vampire is better for in fight regen but regeneration is better to get you back up on your feet if you survive the fight. I prefer to shoot hide shoot hide repeat so I have time to regen. If you can put out a lot of damage quickly then vampire but if you want to get back in to fights quicker after hiding with low health regeneration is the way to go.

Pretty cool little game. Rather harsh starting off when your facing level 30+ guys though :)

I had no idea what I was doing with skills, but the blades thing looked nice so I went into blades and silver shield with a few points of regen. Seems OK, but still horribly outclassed by those with more points available.

Was thinking of going into the critical hit thing when I get leveled up enough. 10 points should be 30% chance of 200% damage along with preventing them from healing for a few seconds, which I'm hoping counters things like regen and vamp regen :).

Critical hit is pretty devastating when you use it with one of the assault rifles or light machine guns.
