Immortality End Game Setups.

ok by week 7 or 8 I have amassed a pretty pile of teleporters and found a strategy thats almost idiot proof.

 

Basic Agent equipment: 4 teleporters or 3 teleporters + Psi-Amp, 1 body sheild, X-Com armor,2 toxiguns, 1 stun grenades/ 1 smoke grenade

 

each agent is one of these:

Missle Unit: Marsec flying chest plate, 1 Dimension missle launcher, 3 dimension missles, fill up on toxin ammo.

Grenadier: 2 vortex grenades.

Cannon Unit: 2 cannons

 

Start up: Lots of smallish groups.

 

Keep paused:

 

Opening moves: ( EAch group should be Aggro, Autofire, Running )Align each group to a different compass point. Have some looking N, E, S or W.

 

Teleport a few ( 2 or 3) agents to edges of the visible area.

 

un-pause:

 

wait until view updates.

 

either teleport other agents to the new edges of the visible area.

 

or if hostiles are detected:

 

drop grenades/missle launchers to clear hands. ( guns are hostlered by default to make more room for big items)

 

teleport directly behind them take out both your toxiguns.

 

unpause

 

rinse and repeat.

 

guidelines:

 

1) Leave one teleporter for an escape mechanism. The other 3 you can use for attacking/ exploration.

2) Teleport out with the slightest bit of sheild damage or imminent missle attack ( your primary defence is your ability to teleport sheild is just there to soak a little damage )

3) remember shorter hops use less teleporter energy.

4) shoot people in the back they'll be brown bread before they see you.

 

A nice attack method:

 

Is teleport -> prime and drop vortex grenade(0.25 timer) -> teleport -> prime and drop vortex grenade -> teleport. ( best used in fully live groups of enemies otherwise chain reactions cause more equipment loss);

OOH BURN

 

*ahem*

 

I haven't seen THIS strategy before. It looks like it requires a fair amount of space,

 

But the teleport -> grenade -> teleport thing is common knowledge.

 

On an unrelated note, apparently Firefox's spellchecker doesn't think "teleport" is a word.

well I missed out on it the first time round tending for 2 sheilds and the teleporters(1 or 2) where a sideshow. dropping the 2nd sheild in favour of 2 teleporters may seem counter intuitive but it worked wonders since the teleporters charge back quicker than the sheild.

 

btw usually when mentioning a post is a repeat post its a good idea to link in the orginal post perhaps there are some good points I missed but its got to the point where I have more or less killed that game off due to its terminal easyness.

Righty'o folks. Calm down. My mod-stick is gathering dust, and I'd like to keep it that way. ;)

 

It's okay to get all giddy and excited about the multi-teleporter strategy. It's as awesome as pushing over stone donkeys. They're a real treat for playing long enough to get them.

 

I like to drop almost all of my squad's medikits bar one for an extra teleporter slot. You can't go wrong with five teleporters (legs, backpack and left hand), a toxigun and a few clips in the pocket and some other device of death in the right hand of your choice and as many of your favourite grenades as you can hold.

Well, looks who's being all "Keep the forum tidy", (Mr/Mrs/Ms (choose applicable)) "Wow, I sure have posted a lot, I hope I don't get in trouble for spamming..." <_<

yeah mr sumo are you basically a great big forum troll? hint: go join a mmorpg and fight the troll wars other there. reading the trollage with exception of what nkf had to say is another 5 minutes I'll never get back.

...Err.

 

No. :huh:

 

That was (sort of) an inside joke. Sumo's not a forum troll. I just kind of thought that was unlike him... Now forum quasi-spammer, that's another story ^_^

Misunderstanding my quotes... Sarcasm really doesn't translate well over the interwebs, does it?

Can we just forget the whole thing? I'd really prefer it if this didn't degrade into a flame fest. It's going that way, and no one wants NKF to bring out the mod-stick.

 

 

By the way, I just noticed. 102 posts in almost 1 year. :banana:
