1. It takes 8 Boomers to take down a Gen, but since their splash is kinda wierd, 10 is generally considered a 'safe' number to use.

2. Using that math, it should take around 12 Decimator shots to take down a Gen.

3-12. Unless you're in large numbers, never use these to take down a Gen. I have no idea how many shots these take, but it's a rather large number.

[Black]

it takes 7 deci missles to kill the gen not 12 :rolleyes:

[NoSurrender]

Its 12

[Rbstr]

The phoenix is decent at it no same with th eother AV, and i know its seven because i've take down gens with jsut me and another guy, we both fired at the same time took me a deci and one shot to his full deci

[Desperado]

That's odd, I coulda swore I took a gen down with 9 decis

[KIAsan]

Thought it was nine also.

[SilverLord]

Thought it was nine also.It is.

[Madcow]

I've had gens survive 10 Boomers, I use 12 each time now.

[HawkEye]

i have heard it takes 11 decis to take a gen down

[Peacemaker]

Ok, I use decis to drop gens all the time. The number of Decis to drop a gen is 11.
It takes 12 or so boomers to drop a gen because of bad explosions.

Best weapon for a group of people to use to drop a gen: Rocklet. 6 People unload a clip into the gen and its almost done. Combine it with Deci's and Rocklets and the gen will be down in a matter of seconds.

Yes one of my favorite ole things to do is blow a Gen with Boomers, I know for a fact 10 boomers will kill a Gen...a few months ago. Now it takes 12 I think they did this so Agiles couldn't drop in then run down and knock out the power. Now you HAVE to have ReXo to take down a gen single handedly with Boomers.

Takes forever trying to be a sneaky infil, 4 ACEs and 1 REK. 3 trips, hacking a door in each direction and the equip term. On top of that another trip to run back and get the jammer. It's all worth it to spend that much time in a non-abandoned base and still blow their gen though.

[dscytherulez]

Lol, just bring your AV MAX and be done with it.

Edit: Scat works well also :)

[TheRegurgitator]

hmm I actually don't know how much of anything it takes and I led several Special ops division in different outfits. Normally I'd take about 10 people with me to some comepletly vanu or terran controlled continent, hack the v-pad get an ANT, go fill it up, Meanwhile back at the back everything, except the vpad is being destroyed. We hack the base and fill up the NTU. Normally we would either take the closest to the Warpgate or the one with the least NTU. Slowly enemies would come, so would a few teammates, then eventually It would turn into a full-scale war.

[ZionsFire]

O_o The gens I blow always ALWAYS go down with just nine boomers...
