Well during beta the reaver required alot more skill then i t did before. As of now i wont have a reaver untill im BR12 (im 9 right now) because my outfit and squads need transport. What i learned during my battles in beta made me the Owner Of The Skiez! If you dont belive me then wait for the outfit comps if ur a friendly or untill im BR12 if ur an enemy. Ill show u the true skillz of a battle ripened reaver pilot.
Dont Hover! Rule of thumb is that u do not as a reaver pilot stay stationary or stay anywhere near the ground if u are not blasting a target to pieces (even then dont hover). Use a technique called the forward, strafe, forward! A 3 Point technique, first as ur coming in at ur target shoot at is as you would noramly would, but when u passs it let go of the thrust and begin to strafe and turn with the mouse (same direction) and u will be behind the enemy facing its back and ready to unload some more. At this point u can go forward or finish it off.
Fly High In the sky. Keep away from the range of normal fire and vision. 2 certs that are good for a pilot (mosq and the soon to be bomber too) is zoom implant and adv targeting. When u fly up high to the ground u canuse the implant while u hover to look for enemies and then use the adv targeting to choose ur targets wisley. You can then swoop down and take out a few targets and the after burn urself back up into the sky, or u can launch rockets from up tere and hope ur target doesnt move (TURRETS AND AMSes)!
Bail before u reach 20% armor and make sure u afterbrun away from the place u were. Try to get about 3 secs in afterburn away and then bail. If your too close to the person that shot u down, they might want to take u out too. You were shot down for a reason, too many enemmies with missles, u dont wantto land in the middle of that!
Well thats Lesson One, If you want to add ur own tips or comment, post away!
