Redemption Kicking Really Soon

<div class="IPBDescription">250hp is nearly dead?</div> As an onos, I usually get redemptioned back to the hive when I'm at around 200-250 hp. This is kind of silly, since an onos still has a good deal of smashing left in him at that point. A specific example is when I tried to charge down a hallway with a bunch of sentry turrets and a marine with a gen launcher. I would smash through one sentry, get within inches of squishing the marine and then *pop* I'm back at the hive with 250 hp still left. I tried to kill that damn marine several times, but I always redempted back to base just before I could mash him. It takes a lot to evolve into an onos and redemption is a good pick for them, but it seems a little counter productive to wisk him out of action while he's still kicking.

    genrally if you have 250 hp as a onos (meaning you've lost all 150 armor and 250 of your 500 hp) you will be dead -quite- soon.. as your are probobly assaulting.. and you are thus under fire.. meaning that mr. <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tiny.gif'><!--endemo--> will die soon.. so you get redempted.. i dont seem to have a problem with it though... if it really does bug you that much.. take caparace or regen for your onos and fall out whenever you want to instead of having redemption do it for you.. it isnt hard i promise <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I always take carapace for the onos, and when I'm near death, I rush to the nearest defense tower or gorge. Pretty effective most of the time.

    With the new %age regeneration thingy, as an onos I regenerate about 20hp per second. I always choose it now <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
