<div class="IPBDescription">well.... read it</div> hi! i dont know what to say to new system balance...it is great but there r few things that really bother me (and my friends).
Onos with Redemption isn't easy to kill (bah! it is sometime just imposible)... he attacks 3 guys.. one eats and try to kill others.. when he have low hp he is teleporting to hive.. and that repeat until end of round... . Maybe improve that devour will be avilable only with 3rd hive ?

    First: Use search (about 20 topics)

    Second: Use Shotty + teamwork = dead onos.

    Edit: LOOOOOOL Charge on 2 hives would be soooooooooooooooooo deadly.... believe me. I kill 50 ppl with charge but only 5 with devour.

    Am I the only person who doesn't have a problem with this? I've devoured/been devoureda whole 2 times in 20+ games. In the time it takes him to get back to the frontline you could have 3 extra guys there anyway.

    If an onos takes out 2 HA HMG/GL marines that way he still hasnt payed back his own worth.

    Welcome to the forums. A quick search would have found several threads about this topic have been made already. In addition, one of them is called <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=1&t=40367' target='_blank'>"Onos + redem + devour = wrong"</a>.

    <span style='color:orange'>*Locked*</span> for redundancy. If the NS team deems it necessary, 2.01 may address this issue somehow.
