Hey

i'am thinking about respe my RA's on my nightshade from purge II to purge I but i'am wondering if it will be enough vs scouts' slam.

usually scouts slam+swap to bow+aim for a crit shot.

considering this will make him to lose one second before he aims a crit shot, and one second for me to react and press purge, can stun be removed before he shoots (assuming i rupt him with instant DD)

If the scout switches fast, then no. If he's slow and takes a second or two, then probably.

But vs good players they should still be able to get off the CS.
Cheers,

No, works with purge1 to:
Just spam purge right away and it will hopefully time perfect, if u dont have a negative effect when it hit in after 5 sec the timer resets and u can spam it again. Works like a charm against pure melee classes without debuffs, snares etc.

You need some sort of negative effect on you for it to even activate now.

The group that runs up against them can't kill them fast enough because smite clerics have sooooooo many tools at their disposal combined with decent ranged damage with 8 of them dudes doing it!

Aye, there is no more pre-purge w/out a negative effect on you. I used to only run Purge 1 on my ranger and never needed purge 2. With this change I switched to purge 2.

Think it has never been the case on live that you couldn't prepurge. Atleast not before the new ''new ra's'' with 5 levels per active came.

Yah, I'm not trying to say there was pre purge on live or that its unfair or anything like that. Just stating a fact that when you could pre purge with purge 1 it was very easy to just get by with purge 1. Now with it being fixed and live like purge 1 is not enough in a lot of cases.

Hi Autarch,

why only purge for scouts?

In my opinion purge 2 is necessary against each class with shield. When fighting a 2h-weapon class - or maybe even reaver - 5 seconds are enough to deal significant dmg on the nightshade.
