[QUOTE=Guillebon;34933275]What should I spend my 250 gold on?
I mainly play Technician, Soldier and Pathfinder.[/QUOTE]
Spend it on soldier technitian and pathfinder stuff
The Soldier is flat out amazing, absolute killing machine in the midfield and a decent capper too, if you can be fast enough.
[QUOTE=The golden;34929802]Light takes 2 hits. Medium takes 3 hits. Heavy takes 6 hits (requires reload for last shot)
This assuming every shot is 100% charged.
Unless a Heavy is wounded, I don't even bother shooting them. It's a waste of time and ammo, and it blows my cover.[/QUOTE]
My point exactly.

I keep reading my name everywhere in this thread, then I realize it's just juggernaut.

no that's funion
Playing brute, chasing so invisible bro through the base, get him down to ~100hp, he disappears.
Shoot into a corner because it looked at me funny, and get a double kill.
:)))
My crusade to convince more people to respect the gravcycle is going ahead at full steam. Nobody in the Kabatic gen room is safe.
alright, what do you guys think the best way to get 14,000 exp would be? im trying to get infiltrator and i dont want to spend actual dosh
If you don't wanna spend dosh then the only thing you can do is farm.

caught in the act.
Today I was chasing the flag carrier and I shot him right as he boosted to get up to their flagstand.

well i joined you and you were playing arena for some raisin
Arena is for raisins.
[QUOTE=iLife_Aftermath;34923864]sometimes when i have the flag and zip over our own flag, it doesn't register it as a capture, and i have to stop and shamefully walk back
can you go... too fast?[/QUOTE]
Tfw all the heavys and techs turn to look at you as if they're saying 'what the fuck man'
Two back to back comebacks in a row, one where we got every cap in the last 4 minutes. Enemy team mad as hell.
[QUOTE=Aedus;34932425]Oh yeah, that's an amazing tactic, but for Sentinel? I really can't fathom it.[/QUOTE]
Well the go to perks for Secondary are egocentric and survivalist, and neither of those are good for a person with no explosives and who kills people from to far away for the health nugget to matter.
Primary perk is bounty hunter, my claymore kills make me big money.
With super heavy I can do what other people can't, our gen room has a juggernaut in it, OH NO, I hit him 3 times with a Nova Blaster, get shot by a spinfusor MKD that doesn't kill me and barely makes me move and then punch them in the throat. Dead juggu. People don't react until the second shot hits them usually.
TLDR; I use Super Heavy to make gener-haters rage and when I play light defense to make pathfinders splatter on body blocks.

ez xp and win of the day.
Like 500 xp in 5 mins.

There's a few perks I would take over super heavy, in all honesty a Sentinel shouldn't be anywhere near the gen room, your job is to stop flag carriers, not kill fats that camp in your base. Obviously I'm not telling you how to play your game, you do what you like, but that's generally what Sentinels excel at.
Bounty Hunter is good especially with claymores, I can agree with that.
2nd perk I'd say :
Survivalist (If you run around the map and get up in peoples faces)
Ultra Capacitor II (More mobility)
Quick draw (Can be somewhat useful)
Pilot (If you use vehicles)
For me, personally, survivalist is really damn good, I play very offensively and I always run around the map as a Sentinel taking people out midfield and getting into positions where I can make easy shots on cappers.
I'd think I'd go for 1 of the following combos
Ultra capacitor/Ultra capacitor II
Ultra capacitor/Survivalist
Bounty Hunter/Survivalist
Bounty Hunter/Ultra Capacitor II
How can You farm xp? I want to unlock a class but it would take me forever to get 18,000xp.
On another note I seem to be doing well for my second day, just went 11-4 in team deathmatch.
blue plate specials and air mails (with the bolt launcher) are easily the most satisfying awards to get

What kind of lobotomized Juggs are you playing against?
hurrdurr "goto nasl.tv for show matches" for some reason i lost connection to servers when they did that broadcast, now im still 2k away from 100k exp...
[QUOTE=Mingebox;34937530]What kind of lobotomized Juggs are you playing against?[/QUOTE]
The kind with pings of 150, I of course am only a talking about the times I get the drop on them though.
Heavies hit box is so huge you don't even need to aim with Nova Blaster.
Its not really lobotomized, I just attack them while they are attacking someone else. That is how most of my deaths when I'm not Sentinel are. You are dueling someone, then suddenly a pathfinder bolt finishes you.
I keep my deaths low by not standing around like an idiot, it only takes 2.3 seconds to recharge a shot. I also use my rifle till I absolutely can't anymore. Its still 500dmg and its guarenteed dmg against most airborne people.
It helps that I don't die to a direct hit from MKD spinfusor. And I usually am not visible when I get my first hits, bank shots off walls into gen room is awesome.
