<div class="IPBDescription">Or how to get gorges up the ceiling...</div> Just found this not long ago and wondered if any of you knew it (too lazy to search <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> )
What you need: 1. A skulk. (Lerks could work too, but i've never tried it)
2. A Gorge/Fade/Onos
3. A place inaccessible for the Gorge/Fade/Onos (Like some vents holes)
How to do it: Get the Gorge/Fade/Onos to jump on the Skulk, then continue jumping while the Skulk climb the wall up to the area you want to go. If done correctly, the gorge/fade/onos should land on a slightly higher skulk and get up the "hole" in a few moments.
PS: When you look at it, it's just an enhanced version of the "i crouch and you jump on me" marine trick <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

lol were you living in a cave or something?
I call it a skulk lift, normally the word 'boost' from a gorge is the indication for that trick
This isn't anything new m8 <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

cooperative = competent = early evolve != skulkevator
Of course thats not really worth it, when you can have a skulk just climb to the top and evolve. Its best use it to move gorges and onoses into vents.
On sort of a sidenote, doesnt it annoy you when you use a movement or get redeemed as a gorge to powersilo and you cant jump the little ledge into the center of the room...sure pisses me off to the max.
Cool. Onoses in vents....man, I'd love to see that happen at the marine start in ns_caged.
Actually, I see it used all the time.

Yeah, the vent still has to be large enough to fit them. Most vents aren't that big.
"OMG ITS RAINING ONOS!!! F4 F4!!!"
'scuse me?
