What SL nano can you cast Self ?
And what SL damage nano with CM wrangler phula ?

[Tinypain]

Aye, I wtb a rundown of your approx evades including aad at 220, I've talked with foobar about his agent (Conda) and got some pretty nice numbers in response but that was awhile ago and i've had too many drunken nights since that convo to remember lol.

well remember trox agents can use wit of the trox perk

[Dohtem]

I got a question, how's your evades as an atrox comparing to opi/solitus? Cause it looks like Obtrusiv had/has alot of evades when 220 enfs in full merc had to use MR for perking him....So wondering if trox could be somewhere near that point on the evades?

Obtrusive had a completely different setup then I did, if I would've tried my evades could have been just as good but I didn't have the drive to do it. I conformed with what I had and used it to the best of my abilities. I dodged a lot though even with the setup I used (in signature).

I used Sickening Shock and Waves of Sickening reason being I didn't have to spend anymore IP on them then I had already used for RK buffs, I didn't bother with a lot of those damage buffs because of the IP sink. I used my IP more effectively in other locations.

My setup is in my sig. I deleted Dohtem a long time ago. I don't remember my evades anymore only the setup I used for items, but I did max ALL evades and abilities.

Had I hit AI 23 I probably would've used this perk untill I hit AI30 for Made.

How do you alpha an engi or anyone with blockers?

[afrofixaren]

never played a high lvl agent but my guess would be to use a high crit wepon with high regular dmg and dmg perks, since they dont go into blockers, and pray that the engi is stunned before using bio

You can also try to fire Fling Shot and special attacks like that which doesn't do much damage to reduce the blockers then unleash your real ones when he has no more left

That's pretty much unlikely, the engie spec blocker is a nano and it refreshes every 30s, assuming you have no idea when the aura will refresh you'd have to be damn lucky to get all of the 7 blockers down before it ticks again.

I'm not quite sure how one would alpha kill an engie - depending on his setup it might be doable if he's got no add hp armor - but it sure is doable using crits and perks after he used his cocoon.

I think the only way to actually alpha an engi would be to catch him/her off guard. no spec blockers and no bot up, and such situation can only happen when you are ganking, which I am guessing is not the case. I am afraid agents are quite hopeless against an 220 engi at that matter. I would suggest leaving the area :P

[Sikozu]

How about mimic trader for killing engies? Mez pets and trader heals should be enough to outlast the damage the engie does until cocoon is down and you can kill him with perks/crits. Of course, this has the slight disadvantage of making you useless against all other professions for 20 minutes, but should work?

[dantesho]

you aren't going to go mimic trader just to kill an engi lol, it's easier to just find another target

This is not ganking, killing an engie who has no bots and blockers up has to be flagged afk

Well against engies u have 3 different choices:

1. Use the Microphone (http://auno.org/ao/db.php?id=156764) then switch to Oneida waste fling/burst/fa and land an AS+Perks. (never seen anyone do it btw)

2. Epsilon Purge... Dohtem can tell u a nice story about that i guess

3. FP NT and Roots/Calms and Nukes.

In doc u wont alpha an engi if EP doesnt land but if it lands it will take Blockers if u lucky then its Reclaimville. (ask Dohtem about the Buckked duel!!!!!!!)

There are plenty of other threads on this topic. this is for atrox agent questions only but for the heck of it use purge (doctor nano) its a silver bullet for engineers.

It was a long duel, I couldn't seem to find a way to bring him down, the main thing I missed was that extra damage from the shot in that duel. Anyway out of desperation I busted out EP landed first time I was like "MUAHAHAHAHHA" AS conc-shot he dropped.
