Thanks Ana.  I'll have a play and see if I can get some area debuffs in there too, I could probably afford to lose some resistances if I get my clothing right.  As I'm not very good with buffs I might go for heals and debuffs, zone of powerlessness, bottleneck etc.

Are we assuming for now that you and I will cover the heals/recalls then?

STRATEGY:  Efficient teamwork and Battleground Focus.

TACTIC:  Just as we have been placing a lot of attention on the healers do not forget that they should be our number 1 target.  The sooner we kill their healer the sooner we can get to killing the rest.  I say all snipers should consider healers / buffers their primary target.

I'm afraid we may not have enough people if thats the case nuker sims ftw!! lol

STRATEGY: Know Your Enemy

TACTIC:  Each combat tree has its inherent strengths and weaknesses.  We've all had enough PvP experience in our time here that we know which trees we are most effective against.  That being said, when the sea of reds ("Red Sea"?) come pouring in to attack us, pick out the people who you know you can take down quickly.  Gunman should focus on attacking the MA's, MA's should focus on attacking the MKT's, so on and so forth.

I'm not sure how long it's been like this, but a fair warning to all you ranged people..

The Overdrive Bandana's rage now supercedes Side Roll Escape and I assume any other special ability for withdraw. In other words, enrage now prevents withdraw abilities from functioning. I now have to rethink my entire wardrobe...

Edit: Found it in an update on November 15th..

"Escape Moves now use Withdraw Tactics and fail while enraged."

Can you de-equip Overdrive so you can roll out?

[NoCry]

no subb; it stays with you.

[Pirus]

well you can de-equip it so to speak but the enraged state remains... a bug i guess.

I admire you, you did not call it a "skirt" like most

Having the enraged state stick even though the bandana is un-equipped is certainly a bug.

But I'm pretty sure the enraged state on the bandana is by design.  Same with the Smith's Rage Pills from the 2nd anniversary event.  The items give a decent power boost, but the downside is having a more difficult time leaving interlock if you have to.
