Guess what? Assassins still juice on a regular basis, as much as before, and even worse? They can kill a turret in a single swipe of their sword.... at least one did mine, Lvl 2 Rock-It Turret. This has completely killed any incentive to build turrets, only to see them wasted within 3-4 minutes of being built... sorry Uber, but you've failed in making it sane to waste money on turrets.
I knew I didn't see a nerf in there, unless you play as the moneyball. New map has awesome ways to destroy Assassins though
It's bull... why should I even bother building turrets? You know what I see now? Assassins with 1,000's of gold within five minutes of the game, juicing every time she comes into our base and knocking out our turrets like they're nothing... 100$'s of spent, and what to show for it? Broken turret nubs... fix it, this game is about as flawed as Modern Warfare 2 now. No class should be able to take out two-three turrets while juiced, not without taking considerable damage... it removes an entire section of the game... you might as well just just forgo buying towers and just buy juice as well.
1 hit? Hardly. Assassins can still lay waste if they get in there, sure, but if anyone on your team is competent and see or hear someone juicing in the base, it is VERY easy to grapple and distract. If you are a support, switch to shotgun and grab the bitch. Get her attention, piss her off. Taunt in her face. Eat the death if it eats her time.
First off... grapple them? Lmao, you realize how ignorant that is, considering not only the amount of damage an Assassin does, but how fast they move... and they can just run around and destroy their turrets... nothing can match the speed of a Juiced Assassin, and by the time you're even aware of them, your towers are down... and yes, it's one hit. One Hit for SURE on a lvl 1 Rock-It Tower... they need to nerf the amount of juice gained for killing bots... no class has it easier, cloak, smoke and slash, boom, dead bots and like a shot of juice that would make all the other classes turn green with envy.
Assaults charge grapple (and any charge really) is pretty good for juicers. And assault bombs, just predict their path and blast them somewhere they don't want to be or unfortunately do.
Unless the patch made it insanely more difficult to grapple them, I'd say you were the ignorant one. I've solo CC'd assassins for about 80-100% of their juice as a tank between charge 3 and rail gun grapple + blind on a fairly consistent basis. Run TOWARDS juiced assassins, not away from them. Slam nearly always rings out an assassin mid lunge. Ice traps say hi. List goes on.
Even if you are right, no class should be juicing that often anymore. Nor should any class be able to take out turrets you spent half the game upgrading in .3 seconds. Unless you are arguing that half of your team should just play Assassin defense now as part of the game.
Lots of people grapple juiced player, I do it all the time even with my little slow support and I see others do it frequently as well. But good job calling him ignorant, I totally didn't believe your argument until that. By the time you are even aware of it? Do you and/or your friends not listen for the juice activation sound effect or see the huge glowing assassin running into your base? And I've yet to see a juiced assassin one shot a rocket turret that wasn't already at least a little damaged but you may have found one of those assassins who pushes their buttons harder. Yeah I know I was a little snide already but seriously, assassins who just focus on doing this are some of the easiest to deal with since you KNOW what they plan to do and where they will be. If the grappling thing is hard with the other classes, roll tank or assault. The assault in particular with both the bomb and the charge makes controlling assassins a breeze.
Katana+Gold RoF+Juice+Competent Assassin= Turret Slaughter. Live with it. Assassins are easy as HELL to take care of if you're paying attention, and if you're not, well then DON'T blame the assassin, Blame yourself/your team for providing the Assassin the opportunity to have fun and be a bull in the proverbial china shop.
Yep. grapple em. Get better. Learn your class :lol: (that was for the old members of the forum) On a side note, I was getting an asston of juice as a gunner this morning pushing lanes and destroying those delicious rock it turrets.
