Umm, something which is useful to know at times for anyone who doesn't already.

1000 point chars have 350hp total, the ob does 300 damage - so u can take a direct hit and keep on walking. Used mainly on under when u can walk to the pp and place an ion - simply by walking straight to it.

Potential problems are obvious - you only have 50hp left so if u get shot at you're dead and also anyone listening for the ob going off may come to investigate.

I knew one of those posts would be coming - you would really be suprised to know how many people are completly oblivious to many things in game.

I didn't claim this was a new discovery.

Its a strats and tips forum, tbh I think this is a better tip than "ob walk" "fill an apc with ppl" or half the stuff that seems to be posted here.

If you find it useful great - If you can add some further info/ideas then even better.

Telling people that you knew this three years ago helps nobody.

just a little question, cause you mention under... on some servers tunnel beacons aren'T allowed if I plant a beacon for example in under next to the stone next o the pp... is this tunnel Beaconing or or what?

@ topic:

another good idea is to use the 1000credit char as a shield... just let him run in and stay in field of fire of ob... then let engineers run in (but keep in mind that obi fires a aoe laser... ) cause obi fires slow you got maybe 6 and more seconds to reach a building.... with 3 or more engis and a 1000cred char you can reach the hon and if you are very good the obi itself^^ but this only works if enemy is far far away...


Thanks.

I can reach the Hand of Nod with 1 character, as I'm sure about 300+ other people can.

On what map? It's be tough to do it on C&C_Field. If you could do that I would bow to your greatness, and award you with 83 gold stars.

Just remember that the ob will fire at the person at the back, so if two people run out, its the one behind who takes the hit

I'm pretty sure we were talking about Under. Satisfied
I really doubt you can do it on Field unless you obwalk.

Field is where this tactic is most relevant. I can use a hotwire or any character for that matter to set an ion next to the PP (at the end of the knee wall) at under. All without ever taking a hit from the obelisk. There is no way in hell you can walk out of the tunnel and into the ref at Field without taking a hit, so you need the 1000 credit character. As a matter of fact, @ Under I have set an ion at the PP and made the long walk to the back door of the HON all with a hotwire. Walk into Nod's base with a hotwire and an ion, and take out the hand and the PP with the base defenses still operational.

Ah yes missed that bit out. That's on Under, I suppose it's possible on Field if somebody is distracting the obelisk mind you.

You end up with 40 health actually, the burn does 10 damage.

So the advanced characters survive the Ob-laser? I never knew that, lol, I thought they killed all infantry in one hit. Which is why I've never exposed a 1000-credit character to the Obelisk before. Big Grin
