<div class="IPBDescription">too strong?</div> Is umbra too strong? And i don't mean a lerk by himself, but with two fades with him(all carapea 3 and movement 3). Fades just keep acid rocketing and lerk is the umbra **obscenity**. Every time their energy runs out they just run to the nearest healer and come right back.
Bullets seem to have no effect amd trying to use knive or welder just leads to death, grenade laucher works but is expensive and not really effective if they just run away and watch for grenades. And you seem to need all 4 grenades to kill those upgraded fades.
I've seen it from both sides. As a bunch of marines trying to get to a hive with the lerk + two fades standing at the end of a hallway constant spamming rockets and as the lerk while launching a 2 fades + lerk attack on the human base. I just kept umbra up and fades kept taking down turrets and any soldier trying to get smart with knive or welder. Every so much time i'd hear a soft dud and lose 4 health or something, after a while we just ran to the nearest oc + dc setup to heal and repeat procedure.
Am i missing something? A good way too get rid of aliens inside an umbra.

I've seen 5 onos rush into a spawn and get slaughtered because they had full upgrades, and they only hd like 5-6 turrets

If that's the case, the ono's musta been terrible. There's literally no way that 5 onos against marines would lose, unless the ono's suck, and didn'T get carapace, and other useful upgrades.
