1vs1 pvp,DR, and you

So I have been accepting a few 1vs1s here and there and been hit with every new skill out there so far I can defend and kill people using all of them with timing and other bridge officer skills except the shutdown spam because the defenses for them either do not work or cannot be timed due to the shut down ability having a way lower cool-down than the defense ability.

Most of the intel abilities have a counter intel ability you can use. If you do not have a intel ship use others like fbp jam sensors ect to defend vs something like surgical strike.

If you run into a shutdown spam ship all you can do is go get a drink and watch while the fight becomes a player vs shutdown ship :P or sit there and survive tell they give up trying to kill you.

Time for most of you all to think outside the box like I have been doing for years with your cpt speck and bo/ship setups.

    But the problem is the shutdown/disable spam stuff where Intel is concerned.....or at least that's what I hear complaining about.

    People don't seem to have been as vocal about Surgical Strikes. And, tbh, I haven't heard of anyone having problems with anything besides intel disable, and strikes.

    Well, duh, strikes is counterable, as long as you can react quickly enough. Could you be more specific about anything Intel-based besides SS that a) people are complaining about and b)isn't about disables? Otherwise, nothing really new.

    Just a note;

    Ionic's disable is being looked into by the Dev's. Here's hoping they adjust the amount of time one is disabled, or add more feasible counters.

    There's a few threads floating around about it, and theres many good fixes suggested by the community.

    ionic is able to be countered by its self if you watch for the green ball evasive or just a fast speed will get you out of it before it can hold you. The new rock and roll speck works to.

    That's about it. I find that if I run as much as I can to survive, I'm not killing so much. I'm being VERY general here, as the ships that are 'killing' me aren't really tops on surviving. Just when you need to counter a cloaked alpah using SS3 it isn't likely that a non snooper will be getting the first shot in.

    But my toon isn't fully progressed or geared anyway. I agree with you that there are counters and tactics to use, my poor game play notwithstanding.

    So there's no reason for me to give up yet!
