Pheonix

[Mag-Mower]

Ok, I was wondering if a pheonix would be a good cert to get, they dont do alot of damage in VR, but i heard that they do alot of damage. I was just wondring if i could get some clarification...

[Baneblade]

Only infantry non AI weapon more powerful per shot is the Decimator...

[drsomewhere]

plus, phoenix is effective against infantry taking cover behind rocks, trees, etc.

ive had the phoenix since i started playing and i haven't got rid of it yet, so there your answer.

in other words, Yea, get it.

The phoenix does shit for damage agains infantry thogh it can scarethem to running out of cover.

It is very nice agains maxes outdoors(3 hit kill), and same with vechs, near useless indoors however do to its huge reload, and against Air becasue it fles slower than a reaver. But the phoenix is very fun to use, and i like Batousai have had it scince the begining, even before i had rexo

The pheonix pisses me off on how some people use for AI. but yeah it's a good weapon.

[Eldanesh]

It is a great weapon, however out of all the AV it has by a huge margin the slowest ttk. Thus it lends itself to groups, however for agile armor, deci works better.

i quickly want to comfirm something, as the pheonix can use darklight while flying, does darklight show ams bubbles? i think that is a reason why the nc have beed finding our amses faster than the vanu.

I never even bothered to try that...hehe...

Darklight shows you the insides of an AMS bubble if you are close enough.

I doubt it, but don't know for sure. Enhanced targetting does not work using the Phoenix so I was operating under the assumption that the other implants would not either, but I haven't had DL for a bit.

I love the Phoenix. Don't currently have it, don't get lots of kills with it, but it's still a great amount of fun. There are very few things that are fun to do in PS without getting xp as a reward, the Phoenix can be one of them.

Also shows you the outside when you are inside...

[UncleDynamite]

While the Phoenix has some pretty notable drawbacks, it has many more advantages. So yeah, I'd go for it. Now I'll have one more Phoenix user to evade...

It was one of the first certs I picked up. That puppy has saved my ass on more than one occasion and I've racked up so many MAX kills it's absurd. It's a MAX's worst nightmare in my opinion. Anyways, the Phoenix is a really good weapon. If you're at a point where you're choosing between HA or AV and you're on the NC, pick AV ASAP. TR and VS think NC that have AV are SOB's and they want to nerf the phoenix. In my opinion, they need to MYOB, and they can all STFU, MF's.



now, for those of you TR and VS that are devoid senses of humor, I strongly suggest you calm down and take your blood pressure medication before flaming me. In fact, here, have some NC sunshine.

The Darklight implant does work with the Phoenix but you cant see shit in front of you so your kinda flying blind. Its by luck if you find a AMS bubble using it. Besides its easier to use common sense and shoot a Phoenix in the direction were most of the baddies are coming from.
