<div class="IPBDescription">Opinions On Gorge Changes</div> Hmm, for those of you who dont know the gorge has been given more health and the rof for spit has been upped. At the moment it seems that a good gorg can take marines 1v1 and I wanted to know the opinions of other pt/vets on this? *The gorg should always be able to take a marine 1v1 if he has celerity imo*

    the gorge, as compared to 1.04 gorge, is a power house now. While not a pure attacker, he can definitly defend himself from an onslaught of 1 or 2 marines. On occasion i've been able to take down 5 of them that came at me in sequence. The gorge is definitly a contender now. Also, gorge spit is now a beautifull thing.

    is healspray still "wicked alien shotgun of doom" or is it a mainly healing role now?

    and is it possible to elaborate on how the spit has been changed, the gorge upgrades in 1.1 are very intersting becuase thats the role I like to take

    Celerity Gorge = hax!!

    this is highly disturbing

    it makes me want 1.1 even more...

    but can you explain how spit is better, as in it's hitscan, or it's like a big swath of spit or the damage has been uped, or (insert change here) or is this something that isn't meant to be commented on at this time?

    the spit is alot weaker in comparison to the spit now. You will definitly use spit over spray. The spit can kill a marine so fast its not even funny, and yes, celerity gorge is h4x. Celerity anything is h4x.

    damn you posted as i did.

    Spit has increased damage as i understand it. So at close range where its easier to hit, the gorge rocks.

    From what I've heard, without Gorge hunting, you'll be able to get Onos very quickly. So is this going to change the current "pressure team" to a "Gorge Hunting" team? The Gorge takes a very important role with the new dependability on resources, and should have to be cared for by the rest of the team.
