I'm just wondering if there is an item I can take or use to actually make this game playable during the event? Everytime I get out of the hospital I'm hit again. Ive used up 20 kits so far. So this isnt working. Looking to spend around 2 mill per item if one does exist!

No such thing. You can use smoke grenades which reduces their chance of hitting you, and you can buy a disarm weapon which has a chance to keep them from hitting you if you hit their arm or hand with that weapon

Always someone stronger in torn, so always gonna be hit.

 

also, just following on from disarm being a RW perk - Parry weapons have x% chance to block incoming melee attacks (such as Halloween weapons.)

zxbolty [2975490]

Not disregarding what you’re saying, but just giving an opinion. I think that parry weapons are worse than disarm because it only matters if they have a melee weapon, but also disarm is tricky because it only works for an arm or hand hit, so. Both are just purely chance and rng, but generally disarm is probably better since it can take any weapon away for multiple rounds at a time. It would be best to have a higher accuracy secondary and only use it for defends so that you have a higher chance of surviving incoming attacks. Don’t really use it on offense. But yes, smoke grenades and a disarm or parry weapon are your best chance at “stopping an incoming attack”.

Specifically for Hallows parry is slightly better cuz all spooky weaps are melee, so there's a lot of those going around, most everyone except those rich enough to afford decent revits are using 'em 

 

As a general rule of thumb though, disarm is better, just not this time of year :)

Zoharra [3447101]

Heard! Smoke grenades and disarm. And so the smoke grenades I use them passively right?? And what woukd be the best disarm weapon? Like do they all have the same disarm rate or are others stronger disarm rate then others? 

nihilisticcat [2112766]

Check market and TP if you're in the market, the best disarms (orange/red) are likely going for ~1-1.5b, but really a yellow should be totally fine, the only difference is the number of turns you disarm them for (still have to hit them in the hand lol - also typically you'll want it on a secondary so you can have more damage in primary slot lol)

 

All of this is a bit moot cuz you're still at the building wealth stage, I wouldn't worry too much about RW gear yet, unless you can find something omega cheap - ask your fac to see what they have in armoury you can use (or check yourself!), most FACS have at least some low tier yellow stuff to play with nowadays, assuming your mates aren't using it :) also make sure temps are coming from em too, smokes can start to add up if you're not careful with them lol 

zxbolty [2975490]

There are multiple different rates I think 3 rounds is the lowest they can be, but you can get a really cheap 6 round or 4 round disarm weapon. Best on secondaries or melee weapons and only really use them on defense. And smoke grenades are pretty pricy, but only use those on offense, before you attack just use it once and then attack, gives them less of a chance to hit you by reducing speed. Bzimors website for RW weapons is best, use that.

Something tells me this 19 day old account isn't going to be able to afford a disarm weapon, and even if somehow he could, there are lots of other things that money should go to to get him established. 

 

Op, just tough it out during the event. It only lasts a week. 

RealTeel [3008047]

You could find someone nice enough to sit on your attack page to find out if it is the same person or not, at least. 

 

That way you would at least know if your being targeted by a single person, a faction, or otherwise. 

Ar53_Hol [2430424]

Have you thought about being in a proper faction and not in a blatant noob trap? That sort of faction is being targeted heavily as they are known for abusing new players by not paying properly for wars or teaching them right. 

there are plenty of established factions that will take in new players so you’re not limited to being where you are. 

Dark_ [2975535]

Top end faction wont help, its the event. Its how it is. for example i will hit your factions low end just because its event. everyone is sleeping in hospital these days :D

Ar53_Hol [2430424]

And as a results of this post you was unable to stop me from breaking your chain. I can hold you in hospital and there’s nothing anyone in your faction can do about it, if I want to hold you in hospital I can. Larger more established factions have bigger people who can deter people sitting on the little guys, does your faction have that?

Dark_ [2975535]

I didnt mean to insult. its just how event is designed. i like it -  enjoying it. Hitting baldrs list or randoms, sometimes bump into levelholders. Not mugging. Not interested.

Ar53_Hol [2430424]

We are, I just occasionally live up to the name to prove a point like with the chain break. The rest was hypothetical to explain said point, there are many ways that playing with others makes things better.

 

This new generation of players that have never been in a proper faction don’t see how much better it is and will argue against it, sometimes they need to be shown that it makes a difference and not just told.
