    Protector Question

    Which Protector is your favorite?

    Offensive Protector

    Healing Protector

    Shield Protector

    My personal favorite is Shield Protector. Double shielded Spartans FTW!

    EDIT:Also, what is your favorite combo of Protectors? Mine would have to be 3-star Spartan w/ Shield + 3 Star Grizzly w/ Shield. WOOT!

    Shielded Scarabs is lulz, i NEVER build scarabs apart from on that map. Just so that i can imagine the looks on their faces as they see a sacrab rounding the corner with a shield and engineers covering it.

    Wait hold on there, 3-Star Spartan+3-Star Grizzly=13 Star Sprizzly with shield=unstoppable beast that makes everyone else cry.

    14 Star Sprizzlies FTW!!!

    Re: Protector Question

    you can't have 2 shields on one object so a shield on a spartan and a shield on a tank would do nothing. i like having a shield and offencive protector. shield is the best alone.

    I get banned for no reason

    Re: Protector Question

    16 Vampires = 32 Pop.

    16 Offensive Protectors = 16 Pop

    1 Healing Protector for Chieftain = 1 Pop.

    Total = 49 Pop.

     

    If the vamps are fully upgraded, they absolutely poop on air units, even more so than before. Stasis the units, the offensive protectors kill them quickly, they explode causing the nearby weakened and stasised units to explode until everything has exploded and the other guy is sitting their with an ._. expression. Offensive protectors absolutely wreck bases aswell. Those 16 vamps would wreck it only a tiny bit slower than 24 bumshees.

    Only problem is a single Cryo-bomb, even if it doesn't kill the vampire, kills the offensive protector. It's a right pain having to replace them too.

    Re: Protector Question

    oh that's a cool idea mixing so many off-protectors in with your army

    as Arbiter, I always choose the heal over anything. shield doesn't do much for harrassing, whereas healing faster means I can go back in sooner while defenses are still weak

    because he's got 2 already!?

     

    also, on topic...

    something fun to do is make like 5 ghosts and give them all an offensive protector. these things are pretty powerful, and do surprise attacks on their bases.

    You  can put protector's on him BEFORE the Ancesteral Perversion upgrade.However, you will only get 1 offensive protector when the upgrade is researched instead of 2.

    You do know that the double sheild does not work, it appears but has no effect, the sheild on the tank works fine, but when it is depleted the tank will take damage and even though u can see the spartan sheild it will have no effect, shots will go through it. the best combo is offensive on spartan, sheild on tank, then the offensive one can shoot.

    The healing protector is no good, it only heals the unit when the unit stands still, and it is incredibly slow, so harrassing does not work with healing protector, use the sheild, it is much more effective, u can micro arby when he is in rage, so u dont leap attack u just run around realy fast, sos when ur sheild goes just rage run until it comes back and repeat, no unit exept the banshee speed boost can catch a rage running arby, possibly warthogs.

    Re: Protector Question

    I like shield protectors on Wraiths with Heavy Shield. 

    Send leader to protector factory. Start building Wraiths and warp in 1 at a time.  Build a shield protector for each Wraith.  Onces you get about 6 Wraiths go in for the attack.  If you have a good partner in 2v2 you should be able to sweep in with your Wraiths at the same time your partner attacks for massive domination.

    Re: Protector Question

    Watching 10 shielded grizzlies roll through an enemy force is always entertaining. Just make sure your teammate has anti-air. I haven't used offensive as much, but it would probably be more effective (just less fun). Healing protectors are worthless. They're like the marine medic upgrade. Sure it's nice to have, but it's really not gonna heal very much. If your army's sitting around enough to where it does, then you'd probably win without them anyway.
