Wraiths to easy to see??


do you think the wraiths are to easy to see? personally they seem kind kind of useless for use by cloakers. so do you think they should realease a patch to make the wraiths seem more like a cloaking vehicle. currently they suck as being cloaked.

Seriously, if you miss a wraith going at even 50% than you are blind. The only use for the cloaking is being able to hide you ride when you get out to go do some damage. (Unfortunately, this only works if the bike is in near perfect condition because the smoke from the damage gives away the position.)

Also there is a bug and I think it isn't fixed yet that even if your wraith is in perfect condition and you get off, it will glow at full visibility when unmounted. I ditched it for the ams cuz I was sick of getting killed by one solitary placed-4-days-ago mine. Now I can take 6 mines and still be happy yay. Plus I will never go back to wraith with my current char because I wouldn't have enough points for the ATV cert.

I'm not sure cause I've never seen a cloaked wraith, actually I've only seen a wraith in the vehicle area. And I've been playing for almost 2 months now.

Wraiths are way too easy to see IMO, I mean the only benefit of them was that ..

1. Pilots couldn't "easily" see them when flying above, so they wouldn't get picked off all the time when on a journey, same could go for ground units too.

2. Only were 2 cert points so if you are a infil, its not a terrible choice.

But with the all-in-one atv 3 cert thing, they kinda screwed themselves. Why the heck would you waste 3 certs on atv's when for 2 you can get a harraser that can carry a passenger and can run people down (sometimes). Plus a harraser also will not get turrets to fire at you. With the new LLU things a fast vehicle that can carry one passenger is a good deal, and its useful.

Another good 2 cert vehicle is the AMS, it has very good armor, can mow people down, and can help out your team. Bad points are that it can't manuever well, is usually a bullet magnet, and can't carry passengers.

If I was going to spend more than 2 certs on a vehicle, why not get a tank or marauder/enforcer, hell if your a infiltrator get a skeet, way faster than a wraith, won't attract turret fire, and has offensive fire too.

Bah as you can see I'm a little pissed about the 3 cert atv thing.

If you can't see a Wraith, EVER, you need your eyes checked. Badly.

It's a wise idea they decided to merge the ATVs because I doubt anyone would want to use the Wraith otherwise. (Heh, I made a funny!)

Yeah I see them all the time, even when the driver isn't on them, but maybe that's just because it' almost destroied or something. But yeah, they should do something for that wraith. When i first started PS in may I got a wraith with my NC grunt. He didn't even have the infiltatration suit and I have no clue why I picked the wraith over the baskilsk.

For 3 certs the ATVs should come with a frigging mini-bar. As for being visible, they have the same problems as infiltrators (i.e. people can exploit to see them better, they show up clearly through zoom, etc.)
