How do you rate the Armor Abilities?

[Dawn Wolf]

I'm curious how the community rates the Armor Abilities.

 

Vote for which one you think is the BEST. Even if it's not the one you use most.

 

Also, I would recommend posting them in order. As so:

 

1. P. Vision

2. Regeneration Field

3. Camo

4. Thruster Pack

5. Hardlight Shield

6. Autosentry

7. Hologram

8. Jet Pack

[Sikslik7]

1. Active camo (can be used well on any map, but more personally focused)

2. Regeneration field (can be used well on any map, but more team focused)

3. Thruster pack ( can be used well on any map, better on smaller maps)

4. Promethean vision ( hard to use on large maps)

5. Hologram ( useful in many cases, but less effective on large maps sometimes)

6. Hardlight shield (useful on Most maps, harder to use on large maps)

7. Jetpack (good for shortcuts, less effective for combat)

8. Auto sentry (easily taken out, easy to see and avoid)

 

1 and 2 close, 3,4,5 close, 6 and 7 close, 8

1. Promethian Vision...no others

[LiQuid BioniX]

I think that, especially if you are playing Regicide, Promethean Vision is the best. However, I do enjoy the Hardlight Shield and the Regeneration Field as well.

1) Promethean Vision on basically every map, you can always make use of it. Whether it's small corners in the big map, over a hill, through a rock, etc.. you can always get the jump on the opponent.

2) Hologram - Hologram seems to work wonders for me now. Whether it's assassinating someone trying to hit it or shoot it, bolshot-ing them in the back as the run after it, or throwing it out after rounding a corner if someone's chasing me, so I can get a jump back into the fight. Also, if you throw a sword-hologram out, people tend to run away lol.

2) Active Camo (tied) - Camo is actually useful now, but having no hearing and not scoping out when you get shot is pretty awful. Whether you use it for sniping or for getting the first couple shots on an opponent, it's always a good help.

4) Hardlight Shield - Make a getaway if getting shot at from afar, hold off enemies for a little help from teammates, pretty useful in a lot of situations.

5) Regen Field - really helpful for team games, just gotta know when to use it.

6) Thrust - I hate it, but it can be useful no doubt.

 

I don't even bother to use the other two anymore.

regen field= the best!

I hate promethean vision because it severely affects my aim. Something about the colors when it's used makes me feel uncomfortable. That being said, I usually just use hologram to teabag people from afar.

 

Something I like to do with hologram is to equip a sword or hammer, send a hologram at someone, then switch to a precision weapon. Most people will focus on the guy charging them with a melee weapon.

 

Sometimes I use camo, but I'm not much of a camper so I use it rarely.

I don't really focus on using AA that much. The regen field doesn't do much. With a low shield I still die very quickly if more then one person is shooting at me while I'm in it. The auto sentry gets destroyed to quickly. So if I had to choose the one that works the best for me would be the jet pack or the P. Vision.

[xlxlCrobarlxlx]

Thruster pack, its definitely underestimated but for me who uses his radar regularly and likes to stay grounded love to use it to avoid people and move tactically and even avoid gettng headshotted (y)

[spartan II7]

Active Camo! I can easily board a mantis with it. I can also capture flags with ease!

[Dawn Wolf]

Yeah, camo seems way better than it was in Reach. I've been seeing mostly Camo and P Vision in play. This thread verifies this as well...

[gravydeath]

I voted Promethean vision, but after using it for a little bit the Hologram is my favourite. It's not as frustrating to play against as say, camo, so nobody will call it overpowered, but I honestly feel like it wins me more gunfights than any other ability I've used.

all i use is a jet pack baby

[PHIL0S0PHY]

None makes the game play better
