Scout buff
« on: September 24, 2012, 08:13:08 am »
Has anybody else tried buffing the scout, by continuously dropping and picking up credits? If you didn't know, the scout gains health on picking up credits. I got over 2k health before getting bored. Quite handy being able to tank that amount of damage.

How much have you got up to?

You must have been on a server on your own, so no robots were attacking you, because gettign 2k health would take too long and be too hard while you were fighting the bots? imo just a waste of time.

Yeah, it was during setup and waiting for ppl to join. But you can do it in between waves, or even the lulls within a wave to quickly buff up. Also gives you something to do if ppl aren't pressing F4.

I think I played with the same "broken F4 key" guy, gawd that was annoying. I figured he was just trolling.

I still had over 3k health by the end of one mission.

Yeah, pretty sure only scout, although tbh I haven't tried with other classes. If you check the classes in the class select screen, you should see the list of MvM specific abilities. I think scout was the only one that had "pick up creds for health"
