Blink/swipe Leap/bite

<div class="IPBDescription">You learn one, you've learned them all.</div> I'd just like to point out that they're the same skill. After practice in co, I managed to learn the leap-bite, and can now do the blink-swipe. It's the same fast fingerswitching skill, and the same timing.

    Indeed it is. Fast finger switching? I press PageDown - my last used weapon button. Makes it easier imo.

    Off topic-ish i guess - whats the command you can type in console to remove the weapons sprite/hud thingies? fastswtich or something?

    hud_fastswitch 1/0

    and blink-swipe is a bit more difficult, since blink has a "weaker" effect while one leap is enough to reach the target

    I find it harder using last weapon than switching manually. I don't know if it's NS' anti-script function, but sometimes if I switch from leap -> bite very quickly my attack won't issue. No this isn't the unplayed animation thing, the attack simply does not happen, I can hold down the attack key forever without attacking. However this never happens if I switch weapons manually.

    I use 1-5 for the weapon slots and the wasd. I can do it fast without using q. Also handy as a marine for whipping out the pistol to get those last shots in a retreating fade.

    XCan - lastinv is server-side, slotx is client side. Lastinv has to go there and back before you get your weapon, slotx is immediate gratification. Don't use lastinv. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The only thing that really makes blink different is how you "hop" with it, which is much less obvious than how leap works (point and fire once, twice if far). Holding down the fire button while blinking is wasteful of adrenaline.

    Try assigning the abilities to keys around your movement keys, or to your mouse. Works..

    Question: I'm having trouble with switching between blink and swipe... is there a way to easily switch without hitting 1 and 2 every 2.5 seconds?
