stupidsyrup Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) Seriously?!? Bodyguard Mercs and our Rapid Shots with Combat Support Cylinder in have lost something I loved most. When we use Rapid Shots we would fire that awesome pewpewpewpewpewpewpew. Now it's just pew pew. I mean it's really nothing in the grand scheme of things but it was awesome! Sure it was kinda obvious in WZ's, but not as bad as Hammer Shot for Commandos with the giant freakin green laser! I just thought it was awesome and I miss it and wanted to know if anyone does too.

Jenzali Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I don't miss that horrible old sound. When I tried out the new animation I practically jumped out of my chair and danced around in joy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you Syrup. I knew they were changing it but this new animation is disappointing. I think I would even be happy if it hit three times, seeing as it heals three times, but the two seems lackluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caveslug Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) My merc healer feels lazy now when he uses rapid shots. And I agree if anyone needed changing it was Commando, I would even rank this as why I never play my commando healer. I think its funny they took out the OP healing giggle because of sound fatigue, then added it back. But they changed Merc heal, I can only assume because of "sound fatigue". Even OP dps laugh their asses off now. Edited April 17, 2013 by caveslug spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupidsyrup Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 It's too haaaaaaard to pull each trigger more than once! = Merc healers now. I've learned to practically hump the person I'm healing with my green laser as not to be obvious and I can do that with a Merc. It's just one of the other stupid things they did with 2.0 that NO one complained about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phrase Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'll take the higher/ quicker heal rate with the two shot burst that can be more effectively woven into our main heal rotation while maintaining heat neutrality. But I guess if you play for the sound effects and not the actual benefit of the ability, I feel sorry for your loss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess if you play for the sound effects and not the actual benefit of the ability, I feel sorry for your loss? I haven't noticed a quicker heal rate with it. And I don't entirely play for the sound effects, per say, it's just something that's really cool that got taken away. It's like when picking the color of a product/electronic. Will it affect the performance in any way? No, but it's nice to have style when you use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
