Killing A Jper As Onos

<div class="IPBDescription">which attack to use?</div> Yesterday night I went on the aero combat server and joined a little late. I had no upgrades as skulks and was dieing like crazy from gl spams and bullets. While I was dead, I was spectating an onos that was 36-13 that was trying to devour a marine. But he kept on missing. I told him to use gore toi kill the marine and his reply was "I have focus with my gore, so the probability that I get him is about the same with devour. Besides, I'm not listening to a 6-17 skulk."

I thought that this was the most stupidest thing I had ever heard.

    If he's got bad aim, then gore is the best way to do it. If he's got good aim, then devour is better.

    generally, though. Would you use devour or gore to kill a marine with a jp that's flying erratically around the air?

    Devour takes more energy, is slower, and has a shorter range compared to gore. And if you die with the jper in your stomach, he's home free to **** the hive up.

    Since he had focus, that's just more reason that he should have been using gore instead of devour. A single non-focus gore doesn't accomplish much, but a single focus gore would probably have killed him at that point.

    well i usually try to devour them since i have pretty decent devour aim, but if i miss a devour ill switch to gore and gore him.

    lol. "i'm not listening to a 6-17 skulk"

    if he can't devour he is better off using gore, especially with focus. one gore would take the jp down like a fly. anyway, if he got focus and wasn't intending to use gore much... isn't that a waste of 2 whole points <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I always go with devour cuz it seems that no matter where I aim, I always devour the marine. Its kinda weird when people ask me how I do that and I have to respond "I don't know..." <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
