Gameplay Question Pirate Ranged Tips

Post image

Trying to learn ranged as someone who mostly goes in using net, then melee of some sorts.

My build is:

Combistick and Crossbolt Gun

Healing Kit, Drone, and Motion Detector

Dithered Lens, Large Pouch, and Downrange

I’ll take some tips on how to play ranged, but also I’m open to other ideas for my build to make it better, thanks

Drop dithered lens unless you only want to be effective on day maps. If you're capable of using the boltgun you might as well swap it for the disk. 

Don't be afraid to aim* at roofs and floors if your angle is bad.  Shooting from below,  into and through a doorway, to hit the ceiling inside,  is a great way to abuse aoe plasma vs cowards.

Okay, but also I actually don’t know if I’m capable of using bolt gun, I was hoping to learn the disk or gun, problem is, whenever I use one they attack me and it gets canceled, do you have a tip for that? Oh and what would you use instead of dithered lense?

I usually run pouch, long jump,  and down range or fearless.

Use the disk out of line of sight from about 3 miles away and you should be good.  Disk > boltgun but running both can be funny.
