I liked cloaking. It gave me a nice damage boost and allowed me to move around unmolested. But just to experiment tonight I tried out a build with dash and mark with abilities to enhance those. I must say, I was rather pleased. My performance seemed to improve, though I don't think I can say that definitively yet. Best of all I actually got to look at my character as I was playing him this time. Next up I'm going to take another look at the plasma cannon to see if I misjudged that as well. What about you? Have you gone back and reevaluated your characters and been surprised?
I did this with Scientist when I dropped the sentry for disguise. Now he's my favorite class. I've never tried a cloak-less scout, but I've seen them used a few times. Can you charge your plasma cannon while throwing a grenade, or does the grenade cancel it out? I can never get a direct hit with the cannon unless the target is stunned or slowed down.
Yes you can use everything normally while charging a plasma blast. (Grenades, abilities, etc) And no, I did not misjudge the plasma cannon... Goodbye again.
ya gotta agree if u use the plasma cannon u gott shoot it at the feet it does pretty decent splash damage!
My medium range scout doesn't have cloak, mostly because he has a plasma cannon. It's a really good build on medium range maps like Streets.
It's like me using the EMP shotgun with Pinkatron for the first time. I was pleasently suprised at how a change can make it better/different
If you are referring to the plasma charge being discharged when you throw a grenade, I did it today and didn't loose my charge.
