@NmRc_DEATh I don’t believe that it needs fixed. As Meddler said, it is smart tactics. If you want to drop your armour and then equip it again before getting sprayed off the enemy you have to be super quick. Anyone who can pull that off will have to be pro. Maybe I’m wrong, but I’m not brave enough to drop my armour.
It's annoying to see people drop their shields before they get hit. They can't do it all the time though. I EMP two different squads fighting each other many times, just to lower them by 50 and fight. The downside to this is they kill each other faster or have time to loot the person the managed to kill thanks to my EMP helping them in their small gun fight.
- @Leo_the_Lion25 Simple solution is to just set up the drone, rush and then set off your EMP while you rush, if they decide to drop their armor, you will catch them naked and surely win the fight, otherwise they'll just be slowed down but you still have the jump on them and can get those head shots easily.
Sometimes you can't always rush them. I did kill a pathfinder today that had a turbo charger devotion. He downed my Octane and Caustic random teammates. As he downed my Caustic teammate, I had trigger EMP and as I we leaving the drone during the EMP (I'm nearby) I saw him drop his shield. I knocked Caustic with ease still without picking up his shield. I assumed he wanted to thirst Caustic for the Gold Armor. However, I killed Pathfinder so easily because I was Purple vs his normal health. Turbo Charger Devotion or not. I won.
Still, it was funny seeing him drop his shield. As for me piloting the drone. I had to because there was 5 people. I had to give my team the info where the enemies were at and it worked. I only had to kill Pathfinder.
- @PJBurrows1991 If your on PC its super easy since you just drop it quick pick it up but on console (I have tried it) it's much harder since you have got to move around the stick and the sensitivy is lower
- @SomewhatSquishy umm, no. Console Players can drop the shield fast too.
- @SomewhatSquishy I’m a crypto main and it’s amazing how often I see people drop their shields. As I said in my previous post “I could be wrong”. Turns out I was wrong. I’ve actually tried it my self a few time’s. 90% of the time I can pull it off, the other 10% of the times I panic and mess it up.
I actually think the EMP needs a buff. By the time we get into the fight the enemy team usually have their shields back up to full so it was a waste of EMP.
