Counter Techniques: Lasher

[Heavygain]

Just curious, how do YOU counter the lasher indoors/outdoors. I can only come up with plasma nades but that is still uneffective. Dont give me that bull that the lasher isnt overpowered or that the jackhammer still owns it. The jackhammer i think is actually almost balanced but the frikkin lasher is ridiculas. It doesnt take hardly any skill to own with it. And to get within an effective range to use an MCG is to get into the range of the overeffective range of the lasher.
Comments?

see there is a problem with sniping. First of all it takes time to get good at and some natural skill to be good with. Second some ppl prefer foot combat over sniping cause being caught in the heat of battle i think is more fun. See you cant just become a sniper. Dont feel bad heavygain i have the same dispute.I think the jackhammer isnt overpowered nor is it underpowered. The lasher is impossible to hide from cause if your behind a tree all they need to do is shoot the sides and slowly kill you. or in one of those crevices in the hallways of bases the same thing. So yeah over or underpowered the lasher is cheap to me no matter what you guys say.

i agree with the sniper part but i like to use a rexo with 2 thumpers one with plasma and one with frag. so you shoot like two plasma at the m then quickly switch to the one with frags and finish them of. its quicker than changing ammo. but its a GRIEF getter in close quarters. as of right now i have 675 grief for an hour in a base.

Hey. I never said you had to like it.

You sneak up behind them real close do a V-V-Z and then attack with a MCG, it works go and try it .

[DemiInuyoukai]

use something like a Pheonix

[DemiInuyoukai]

or u can use a bolt driver, or another lasher

[Vick]

I find that gauss/rexo works nice, and I have been using my new bolt driver also.

[DemiInuyoukai]

yea, it does work good, so does Jackhammer

[BadAsh]

Yeah,

Get a MCG or Cycler if TR or a Jack or Gauss if NC, if you know how to aim while strafing you can take down Lashers. If you can't aim and can't strafe you are gonna cook.

My way of dealing with them:

Iron man setup.

3 Medkits, Rexo, Personal Shield and Second Wind.

[Eldanesh]

I picked up HA again. That worked for me.
I also found out how to deal with all heavy weapon imbalences and still get tons of kills.

Get a van cert and a good gunner also certed in it on ts and never leave it, ever.
Nothin like running down 10+ unprotected lasher users running from tower to base while some of them desperatly try to do something with their lancers.

Surge is the villain. Once it's fixed, this little problem should dissolve like roofies at a frat party.
