    Covie need a better solution to Guass

    Wraiths just don't cut it still, and it is sad that is the ONLY thing they can make.

    Yeah, Wraiths need to have improved accuracy so they can actually hit moving targets effectively.

    I've heard Locusts beat Warthogs, but I've never tested this out.

    They might because they can target quick moving units and they have super-long range, but their health is so low!

    wraiths are fine counters to gauss hogs, especially after the nerf. you need scorch though.

    Gauss will kill you before Scorch is Effective.

    I think he means the general boost in hp and damage that results from teching up.

    I know, but Gauss will kill your base before you kill all hogs.

    Re: Covie need a better solution to Guass

    Having scorch does not matter

    They do not have to fight wraiths, their building damage is to much. So they can just drive around base to base and do as they please, if you got one base they will just grab control of the map so it is GG.

    There really is little to nothing a covie can do against gauss spam

    ReMoViNg HeAdZ:Try the Arbiter or jetpack brutes.

    tldr : arby < gauss hogs.

     unless you have a T3 arbiter, gauss will beat him and the hogs will be at your base, destroying your temple before you know it. and if you play against an average gamer, then you'll never even get a T3 arby vs gauss.

    Re: Covie need a better solution to Guass

    Hunters can not beat micro'd gauss unless you heavily outnuber them, because it takes so much time to aim.

    Gauss destroys air, owns infantry and gremlins kill the only viable options, tanks.

     Look at C&C, the units that do a lot of damage quickly are the slowest units in the game.

    Gauss kills your base before you can so anything.

    As stated on team indecisive the nerf should have been to take away building damage.

    Re: Covie need a better solution to Guass

    I don't think i've lost to a single Anders player since the reset, and I have not built a single wraith either. I always build hunters because it encourages the hogs to fight and most likely die. If you build wraiths though, the hogs will just run away and you'll have to deal with them later.
