NERF THE NORICUMS ISTG

[frigid crypt]

Please nerf the noricums they give off small pp energy, literaly impossible to play if you dont have infinite fuel shoved up your pocket at all times without a cooldown, especialy for the heavier builds, not to mention the bug when i cant see their tracers or sometimes the sound glitch. I love this game but those shtters in their 4x noricum rainbow builds are making me rip my last patch of hair out. If you play the mentioned pain in your ykw, with all do respect go and have a very nice dinner with your boyfriend

[brave kraken]

Just get better at movement. Flank them and get in their face. Yes noricum changed are coming next week, but it sounds like you need to work on your counterplay

[viral pumice]

Eventually you run out of fuel and when they have 2 or 3 artillery users that have teammates waiting for you to push the artillery you die especially if they are camping spawn you don’t have infinite dashes im able to kill them and die in the process just for them to bring out their second or third artillery build same thing happens with flamethrowers they have multiple builds in a random que its almost impossible in a group team it’s easy

Maps like fissure and spectrum

[frigid crypt]

They have like 50 builds, and if you rush and try to kill them your going to die in the process

[brave kraken]

You don't need fuel if you're on a build with decent speed. And if they have multiple, you don't need to take them all on at the same time. Artillery doesn't have much armor: get in, kill one, get out

[viral pumice]

Or the one with the wall in outer space the problem is the can shot behind cover

[brave kraken]

it's how you rush. Be sneaky, strike fast, and get out quick. Even drawing their attention takes their attention away from your other teammates, who can more effectively crumple their frontline

[viral pumice]

If one person from across the map looks your direction you get spotted on the map you can be sneaky but not everyone is running cloak or sprint gear or speedy legs and again if they are grouped up with a siren sniper or a energy wall or a 4/5 punisher build your cooked especially if someone spawns during the time your attempting to get a kill your cooked if they are around bots and you get pinged your cooked

[frigid crypt]

Sir with all do respect, i like medium to heavy builds, also the teams i encounter at least have 2 guys camping with noricums and like 1 or 2 guys with harpy and med range weapons, its quite impossible, yes a full squad i dont complain, but when your alone or two its really difficult, yes im not a good player but id like to enjoy the game a bit more, at least with the fire builds you can try to challange them, but with the campy small pp noricums its practicaly impossible

[brave kraken]

If you like medium to heavies, mediums can still do the job, just challenge them at a bit longer ranges and have a few cover options you can switch to. With heavies there's not much ur doing about noricum, just ignore them and play around cover

[viral pumice]

Artillery counter snipers but imo it goes both ways until the artillery hides behind cover in spawn and still able to head glitch and shot over cover with pin point accuracy

Then they get infinite ammo and sum have tyr torso

[frigid crypt]

With noricums theres praticaly no cover, they somehow manage to hit every spot on the map and they hit fast with quite a lot of damage and almost no signs that they are coming

[brave kraken]

Artillery counters snipers, and it needs to stay this way, otherwise snipers run rampant. Artillery is weak to speed however, their shots can't keep up beyond 80 kph

[viral pumice]

If you lead your shots you can kill almost anyone

[brave kraken]

it takes 2.5 seconds, there isn't enough leading that'll be good for damage

[frigid crypt]

The point is if you want to deal with noricums you need a really specific build and be good at the game

[viral pumice]

More so a specific build and that’s flames or scourges for Kill time otherwise they accelerate away using fuel

[brave kraken]

I mean, it's just a few simple things you need to watch out for. Artillery tends to punish those who aren't moving or camping behind a small enough cover. They don't get as much value as you think they do, I find them pretty frustrating to run tbh

[brave kraken]

No, I mean it takes 2.5 seconds for their shots to hit the ground. Regardless of range. You can outrun that easily

[viral pumice]

You can out run 1 but not 2 or three they cover more than you think with a 4 noricum build

[brave kraken]

I have a 4 noricum build. It covers less than you think it does. It's the same radius, just a little more saturated

[viral pumice]

And again once your spotted flanking the atleast 3 people are looking your way

And like I said 1 yes 2 or 3 people with artys no

Your going to get hit and hard pinged

[brave kraken]

the more artillery they have, the less pressure you have when you get close. It's all about staying moving.

If you get hard pinged moving isn’t always the best option because you’ll just stay visible if you stop moving yes that’s bad once your hard pinged all everyone has to do is look in your direction any medium range to long range build sees you as someone that’s alone and easy to kill so most likely a flanker will come after you or a punisher/gozer build will shoot at you or snipers or vortex rockets or an echo blast might come your way the possibilities are endless once your hard pinged

You can sneak up yes I have done this but at best your trading and if your lucky you make it out
