Lesson learned. Abuse this. As it works wonders.

    yeah marines tend to chase gorges, considering them as easy targets

    <span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>Gorges <b>are</b> good targets. They're slow, they cost a shotgun, but they take almost an entire clip of LMG fire to take out, and thats if they're without surrounding DCs, carapace, or whatever. Most marines who chase gorges know for a fact that they are being baited, they just think they might have the upper hand with faster reflexes and infighting tactics. I'd say since it's a bit of a setback each time you kill one of those slow moving targets, it's worth chasing after them if you're just a freebie light armor LMG marine guy.

    Nice animation thingy too.</span>

    Gorges die in 3 seconds of lmg fire, so if I see a gorge i'll chase it, though not without checking for ambush spots first <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Luring is an effective gorge trait.

    You can lure rines into OC ambushes, cloaked comrades, or distract them from your REAL attack.

    If you're near your OCs, then lure the marines in. If your team are PLANNING an ambush, lure the rines in. Be sure NOT to lure marines to healing comrades, other gorges, etc, because that'll get them killed and you'll lose friends quickly. The best application is attacking the WEST side of a base while your friends are at the EAST. The rines will swarm the west side trying to get your fat rfk-giving rear, which leaves your team a free hand to romp through the other side and hopefully catch the rines napping.

    If you're a redeem gorge you're generally pulled back to the hive anyhow.

    Redeem doesn't come till 2nd hive (For my team anyway.)

    Two gorges > One Rine ^^;

    Gorges might die in three seconds if they are in broad daylight in the center of a large room, but when they hop about and around corners they tend to live longer.

    Eh, I'll chase you fat little lunchboxes until the day I die. The satisfaction of wasting a grog thats running like a little girl is just too good to miss. Well, unless I feel like hes trying to lead me into ocs or something.

    I chase gorges, and they die.

    If skulks come, I kill them too.

    If there are more than one gorges, just use medspam and the gorges will never kill you.


    GG gorges, I'll take a skulk over a gorge anyday

    DEAD after 42 attacks with 0 armor left.

    Thats worst case where its gorge 3cara 3hive lmg0.

    giving the fact that fatty won't be holding still, you WILL mis. now lets do the other side shall we.

    spit
    DEAD after 6 attacks with 0 armor left.
    spray
    DEAD after 10 attacks with 0 armor left.

    where rine had no lvl armor.

    its a risk sure, but this seems pretty doable, especially since i nailed enought rines. gorges are NOT harmless, they do quite alot of impact. remember that cause your clip DOES unload so fast you have a good % to MIS the bullets you fire. You empty your clip fast, either missing near all or hitting near all.

    ow yeh. chase the damn gorge, but better be prepared to aim.

    You just took the weakest marine and compared it to the strongest gorge.


    What kind of silly comparison is this?

    Gorges are LMG fodder.

    Nice. I HAVE to try this! Add celerity for more fun!

    As for res investment... a good shotgunner will chase the gorge, blow the skulk off the ceiling then continue after the gorge.

    You should make an anim on that haha.

    I was stating what a rine COULD encounter. Well, thats it. now they might actually think before running

    I've found it really fun to knife gorges. One time I knifed the SAME GUY permagorging three times in a game (ns not co)!

    A lot of the time, when they bait you, I know I'm being baited, but I'll run after the gorge, kill it (ignoring the skulk at my feet), and then moments later the skulk will get me. But so what? That skulk gets ~2 res of rfk and I just took out a 10 res gorge who has to waste another 10 res and a lot of time to put up what he was putting up - whether it be an rt, a hive, or a bunch of oc's.

    thats indeed the point of a gorge hunt. Not to live, but to make it die. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If you have 50 rounds in the lmg and cant kill a gorge with it, you suck @ss...


    but the thing with gorge being bait with backup is wellknown/used

    I love taking celerity as a piggy. Nothing more fun than running away at an unexpectedly high speed, chuckling all the way.

    Aim? It's a gorge. Just point at the widest part. You can cut out the three shots that missed with your knife before he kills you, if you're any good.
  • 999Hydralisk999Hydralisk Join Date: 2004-04-13 Member: 27907Members
    What I do when i see a gorge is to make sure im not seen then whip out that pistol and pack 10 shots (200 damage) into the fatty in less then 2 seconds.

    ::WARNING:: Gorges may have acidic spit and carapace.... ::WARNING::

    Gorges are wonderful bait, but the problem lies not with the gorge, nor with the 'rines. Whether or not you are successful in killing it depends upon the skulks, and how much damage they can do in a small amount of time, and whther or not they KNOW you're baiting for them. I have played too many games where I will start to bait for skulks..and then the skulks rush out and get themselves shot to pieces while I suddenly find myself alone and exposed facing angry marines. Best idea in this case....remove the rfk. Jump off a ledge. Ahhh, the hard life of a gorge .....

    Oh yeah, and to top it off...focus spit and celerity make marines so much fleshy goo.....
