Shild Braker?

Zacharias

What do you think about a Ability that would grands us cc guys to break a shild from a hacker?

I mean, if you see a hacker he will stuns you and it is over.

If you see a Hacker and you have the chance to try to get into cc, you bounce on the shild and the hacker stuns you again.

It is more harder for an Shadow/Assassin, he needs to get trough the shild.

Before now all the hackers wanna cry, I want to say that the chance to get with the first try trough the field would be at 50%.

So, what do you think about this?

edit: Another good thing would be, that there are more real fights like
in the movie, and not the twinkel hacker effects all over the matrix :smileywink:

The only remedy is to just fire guns at the hackers. Proposal was good, but over-kill.

Zacharias

But before I hit a Hacker Im stunned and it is out for me SMILEY

Canbus

Hmm, you have a point about that. I don't know what else I can think of.

That's what force combat is for mate.

I see MKT icon in your sig, and I can say that MKTs' knives also stun
and degrade abilities, so why whining about hackers' stun? If you want
to IL a hacker, just make the first move and then get onto him/her like
most of the ppl do it. Also you can upgrade your VD points by hybriding
your abilties and using buffed clothes. Free your mind pal.

Canbus

Cypher: Most of the shielded clothing is pretty much useless (1% viral deflection) and the skills that give VD also take too much memory space. On top of this, fighting a hacker in interlock is useless because of a bug in the IL system. I have fought Dare in IL and enraged her, but unfortunately, she was lucky enough to roll out of the fight *EVEN* in her enraged status.

Yeah, Im a MKT, thats the only thing to get an Hacker SMILEY

But actualy my RCT isnt high enough, so sometimes it happens that I cant hit a Hacker SMILEY

When Im upgrading my VD means to disable all my sneak attacks, but I love them and I dont want to lose them.

Dibol, first point is that there are lots of
clothes with VD up to 6% (just standard ones) and look at the
collectors' & constructs' items. Check this link for clothes.
If you want to have VD/VR w/o clothes, I'm sorry but you have to load
some abilities that give you VD. Likewise, I load some operative
abilites and use dodge ranged clothes as a hacker in order to be
protected from MAs/MKTs/gunners -to an extent of course... The point is
that every tree has some kind of advantages/disadvantages against
others, and your level of satisfaction you get from this game depends
on you choice.

Zachar1as, you have found the way to own a
hacker, so why all this crying? I think you want to own hackers even with
your data miner tree... Not fair...

Actually she rolled about BEFORE you enraged her. She probaly pressed the 'withdraw' button asap, which was before you were able to enraged her. It's lame.... Btw, karate's stun has the same problem.

Canbus

No. She managed to roll out after I did a Side-Kick Combo on her which placed her in Enraged status. I actually saw the "Enraged" subtitle blare out.

Yes, but if she had hit the withdraw button before the 'enraged' graphic occurred then it will allow her to escape. ...which is a bug.

Also, I can get 400VD with no VD abilities...only clothing, so it is possible, but then you'll have low DR.

So...pick your poison.

Does anyone know if you're Force Combat is high enough if it'll break a shield on the first try?

Nope. No matter how high it is, you'll ALWAYS bounce of the evade shield, even if you shatter it.

well lvl 39 shadows r ok they have ghost strike(knife) so they dont need to worry about but it is very annoying now with the sheilds for assassins

**epyone**

There are tons of ways to defeat hackers without inerlock. But it
really depends on who the hacker is. But one things is for sure the
worse way to try to take on a hacker is by hacking.

But my favourite is just gunning them down not giving them the chance
to stun me. Disable shot from the beginning to stun then lots of smg
follow up with a hopeful stun from the clamors so i don't have to be so
much on edge. lol

As far as breaking their shield. That's real work and also depends on the hacker.
