    It's hard enough just getting spirit bond before a gauss army arrives. And covy doesn't get to use the free reactor exploit. 

     

    If you ask me, assault beam is worse at killing hogs than spirit bond anyways.

    Wait wait wait.

    You're complaining that Hogs with T3 upgrades are beating your T1 upgraded Hunters?

    There are a counter to hogs so you'd think that they'd win if hunters were at tech 2

    Hunter = gunner hog

    Bonded shield = grenadier hog

    spirit bond = gauss hog

     

    getting spirit bond at the same time as gauss is also part of the problem since covy have a poor economy and no refund on reactors. But I still think the main problem is that gauss does too much damage against hunters. Hunters should be more resistant to it, not weak against it.

     

    hunters should be countered by flamethrowers, marines, and hornets. Yet 99% of my hunter losses are from hogs.

    Re: Hunters vs Gauss

    well it seems that 8-10 hunters at tech 2 + your leader will defend you from the original attack of gauss but you are screwed after ward because you are not going to be able to leave your base. 10 tech 1 wraiths work better than tech 2 hunters.

    the sad thing is that hunter do quite well against marines!

    That's all I have to say.  Keep the next patch in mind of the Gauss nerf.  And remember this video.

    Problem Solved.

    Everyone here is talking about standard so your video is useless.  DM wraiths are amazing but no so much in Standard.  I still love wraiths in standard but gauss will beat them in numbers.

    I don't get why you keep posting this, wraiths are amazing in DM. We're talking about standard.

    Re: Hunters vs Gauss

    I find the best way to conter gauss is to use "fly by" banshees, i.e with boost. Banshees shoot while they are boosting and most will get of 1 fuel rod shot. All you do is boost over a group of hogs, they will get one shot off and hopefully do a lot of damage, you can also que the boosts up like you do with move orders, by just holding down Y when you do it. The gauss hogs will not have time to react by the time they have flown over them and will often miss due to the banshees speed. Just try it, you will be surprised how succsesful it is.

    Re: Hunters vs Gauss

    If the person you do that to has more than half a brain then they will move their hogs to your base, where you will be forced to take them on or die.

    tmspartan:If the person you do that to has more than half a brain then they will move their hogs to your base, where you will be forced to take them on or die.

    You do the same thing but at your base boosting backward and forwards, once u kill them you go to their base and park 3 at the front of each base, to slow down the spam, as soon as a hog comes out, the 3 banshees will auto switch targets to the hog and kill it with 3 shots. the answer to this will be to lock your base, but this gives you ampell time to attack their base since the banshees do heavy building damage. Since the quick gauss spam leaves u very few buildings and a v weak economy to start off with, especially after the patch where you cant get all your money back for selling buildings. As long as you attack before they get their eco back up your sorted. And as a general thing to go by dont let them get gauss. You have to harras their base with covie leaders from the word go taking out surply pads that will be weak if they are anders to stop the gauss spam from comencing. And with the 3 additional seconds it will take them to build you should have an ampell force to stop the spam before it begins.

    And honestly if all the "top players" do is gauss spam then they are not pro at all. Pro players will use the weakers units and leaders and make them work, not take the most op unit in the game, spam it and go "im so pro i can get gaus spamming 5 seconds before you do.

    Re: Hunters vs Gauss

    banshees won't shoot while boosting until the little timer runs out.
