AHawtRhino Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Does anyone actually use this skill in PvP (or PvE for that matter?!) I think I have used it in PvE when I have two or more targets lined up. Otherwise, it is completely useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManiacalShen Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I used to use it in PVE all the time, but I stopped some time after getting Tracer Missile. It's not worth trying to use it in most PVP situations, but I have done it before. It's totally astounding to watch someone let you spray FIRE in their face without moving. Also funny. And it's good damage, too - elemental, which armor does not mitigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth-Mentu Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 i wish i used it more, i only use it when a story char pisses me off and they are about dead, that way i can watch them burn other then that...not really. i think its better for powertechs, but i havent played one so im not sure... wtb an ability that lets us channel this on the move =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AHawtRhino Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) I didn't realize it did elemental damage! I guess I could try using it as a stealth popper if my... stealth detection ability (forgot the name)... is on CD. Anyone tried spinning in circles while using it to try and pop stealthers? lol!

Wisz_Rethon Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 must try that. Should be faster than the probes too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHawtRhino Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 I'm thinking it won't work. It probably will only pop when the damage "Ticks" while channeling. I think this skill would be a LOT better if it just did all the damage as a burn DoT, so instead of having to channel all the damage, we can simply use FT to apply the DoT, and continue on our business as usual.

HanzoV Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I use it all the time when PVE melee'ers run up on me. It's my turret defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
