Elite Class Guide - BF 1

[@TheSinou01]

The tank hunter is the funniest elite class for sure. It's so cool to one shot everybody.

[@erickmanuel7852]

i guess it is pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good place to stream newly released series online ?

[@benjaminsantana8629]

@Erick Manuel I watch on Flixzone. You can find it by googling :)

[@kevinboone5015]

@Erick Manuel i would suggest flixzone. You can find it on google :)

[@Tiel1779]

The sentries have higher user times simply because they, on average, have a higher survivability rate.

[@Super_Gman_Guy]

Captain Tiel and the Villar Perosa is wildly op too, lol.

[@Destructocorps]

Hannes L Maybe that's why they're not high statistically then? It could be that it's on a per person basis, and if one person hogs the class for most of a round because then it only counts as one use, whereas with the flame trooper and sentry, they have to get up close and die quickly often, allowing as many people as possible to have a go or two even.

[@Athaeme]

but the trench raider has a bandage crate

[@denindawuds3958]

Orange Larfleeze and its only available for people with premium

[@Athaeme]

Oh sorry my bad but your right then

[@johng.6174]

I love those old school looking news reels you make for your discord! It looks and sounds so cool

[@WorkInProgressX]

Rogue-9 the Villar perosa sentry kit is in almost every domination map where it replaces most kits(example: Amiens has the villar perosa instead of the flame kit) so yeah smaller modes have the Villar perosa the most with some exceptions like fao and Sinai(i believe)

[@dutchplanderlinde4845]

Don't forget that the villar perosa is a 12 year olds high fire rate dream

[@Rogue9]

That would explain it then!

[@johannisguardian529]

why can you speak german so well? you pronounced 0achtfufzehn perfectly. :0

[@FakeNewsMonthly]

DarkInfernape65 the villar perosa is on fao fortress as well. When you play domination it spawns on the B flag.

[@MZXD]

your german pronunciation is on point!

[@AB-xn6un]

Might be cause he's German

[@MZXD]

Robuster Polonier I suspected that but what tipped me off is that I don't hear the classic german accent in his English. I come from Austria myself and I find it extremely hard to train this accent away.

[@themeapster5974]

Tbh I didn't even know he was German his English is on point!

[@MZXD]

tbh I am still not sure if he is german

[@littlebird52]

MZXD Its very good, really!!!

[@skavlad5245]

The reason why the villar perosa is higher on usage is because it is practically on every team deathmatch map

[@nathanclark2424]

Skavenger 115 not that I'm complaining about it when/if I get it

[@hadishams5732]

I don,t think td is that popular nowdays mate.

[@PlatinumPizza]

I like the flame trooper for the scare it gives players plus the fact that you can damage them through walls.

[@FrttMs]

The scare aspect is so true though!

[@william_brobrine8975]

PlatinumPizza hearing the flame thrower go off is terrifying

[@joaogomes9405]

But objectively it's the weakest class since it can't kill a bayonet charging enemy quickly enough not to die in the process. It might kill them with the afterburn but it won't stop a death and a waste of a kit.

[@androxity8615]

Joao Gomes I was able to kill someone with a afterburn when they attempted to enter the takedown zone

[@joaogomes9405]

He was probably weakened already. From full health, or even above 75 hp, it is practically impossible to kill a bayonet charging enemy without dying, unless they do something stupid like running past one of your flame grenades.

[@Super_Gman_Guy]

Imagine if you gave the Villar Perosa the Magazine of the MG/08-15

[@jacobbulpitt2654]

Super Gman Guy would overheat like crazy aha be coop tho

[@ragnarokstravius2074]

Well, it wouldn't fit, by want I remember from the Forgotten Weapons video, the Villar uses something like a 9mm bullet, and the Mg/08-15 might use a 7.62 bullet, maybe.

[@OhioGuy216]

Ragnarok Stravius 8mm Mauser for the MG08 or 7.92x57 mm

[@jorge8596]

Super Gman Guy villar perosa rate of fire+ tankgewehr accuracy+ mg08/15 magazine+ tankgwehr damage+ trench raider speed+ sentry armor+ flame trooper immunities+ not limited field of view= a regular hacker with a mg15 n.a supression

[@Mr_Fancypants]

Add a luger drum round.

[@sydvigue824]

I think the difference between the MG08 and the Viella Perosa (lawnmower) Sentry kits is that the MG08 is more for holding down a point (letting the enemies come to you) while the Viella Perosa is for storming a point and being a bullet sponge for your team

[@Pancakewagon26]

Elite classes also take more damage from K bullets, and do not have a headshot multiplier

[@AlbionVega]

Phillip Decker Few things as sweet as headshoting a sentry with a K Bullet :)

[@joaogomes9405]

Are you sure? I have my critical hit marker set to red and when i shoot elite classes in the head it shows up red instead of the normal white. Maybe it's registering as a headshot but not dealing the extra damage.

[@Benny.Driving]

That advertisement was really dope and goes with the flow of the game. You just earned yourself a sub

[@sebastiandiazgarrido8500]

The balance is fine. The only problem is that they have to remove them from TDM at least.

[@rustedopus3414]

Dammit Rouge, when will you do a pilot/tanker firearms guide and show everyone that the true god gun is in fact the Pieper M1893. Packs more punch than a torpedo bomber, 100 service stars. No but seriously I wish I had more access to it, dunno why but I just love to use it..

[@cormac6423]

RustedOpus I feel exactly the same and I would love if it was added as an infantry class weapon, perhaps as a medic weapon

[@Super_Gman_Guy]

RustedOpus I for one really wish I would be able to use the Sawed-Off Shotgun as Assault, I would play assault SO much more.

[@aceposting]

Super Gman Guy then wait for September

[@julduke4605]

Oxycontin Gucci it's decent

[@ficklepickle3768]

Depends what map you are on

[@Kaptitanbear]

IIRC the Villar Perosa is available in death match and the other small modes like domination.

[@Xoais]

Correct

[@grafgingula6961]

Loved the style of the rogue rangers ad, Please Keep that kind of style up it was a interesting change of pace

[@denindawuds3958]

why do people have to comment "bf1 is dead" all the time?

[@alrightagain4605]

DenInDaWuds They just have to. I still enjoy the game.

[@nikobellic1233]

Game is still amazing. Ignore these kids, they going back to CoD

[@V0V4NCHANNEL]

Those kids are repeating the same sentence all the time. No evidence of constructive criticism was found during my research.

[@SmegMaxxer]

Well cus its kinda true, the player numbers have dropped massively. Because a lot of people are just board of it.

[@TheWeeky]

i'd say its dying, on pc at least. Slowly, if you insist

[@edaniel4285]

I've been waiting for battlefield 1 content from you and it's finally here

[@zeshi3089]

I can´t count the times I burned to death as flame trooper.

[@Rogue9]

+Zeshi Yep, there is a bug at the moment. If you get into a vehicle or on a horse, you lose your flame resistance...

[@NeoArmstrongJetArmstrongCannon]

Zeshi I actually found out (the hard way, sadly) that even though you're flame-resistant as a flametrooper, your own incendiary grenade will still set you on fire...

[@MisterK9739]

Radovan Ostrodický again.. they shouldn't. It's a bug

[@alexcruz8648]

Radovan Ostrodický Really? Because I throw a grenade and it didn't hurt me at all and I was standing still in the fire :/

[@NeoArmstrongJetArmstrongCannon]

Alekseev Med well it set me on fire last time, so I assumed that is how it works...

[@Nugcon]

I love that platoon advertisement.

[@iraqigamer2407]

I think the Villar Perosa kit is the most used because it is really effective against infantry, so you could use it until the end of the round without dying, if you had a proper team, with good medics and support players.

[@mr.mercury4247]

The fear factor of the wex is what makes it so good in my opinion. I have had enemies run away from me when they are completely out of my range just because I shot the damn thing in the air.

[@nicholascanionjr.7618]

You're so damn creative Rouge 9. Great job with these commercials. And with any videos

[@ayarzeev8237]

[@maxphilippi9944]

Lord_Dagobah here! Great german pronunciation as always mate! also, I agree, the villar perossa is just mental

[@Rogue9]

+Batman yeah, by accident I played a round of domination and found the villar perosa and nobody was able to kill me after that. It's totally OP, especially on smaller maps and game modes.

[@theodoreroosevelt3143]

i love tank hunter, i'm level 70 and i don't get even 5 kills with sawed-off shotgun because i don't have good moment to did this... this kit is rare and only on maps with vehicles :c i hope they will add a bit more places with this kit

[@PewTheToaster]

In the game of Ww1 Rock-paper-scissors, nothing beats AT Rifle

[@samuylstevens-dn6lb]

I love seeing a Villar Perosa enemy player fighting more than three people.

[@Wulfjager]

I found this actually really useful, thx

[@Isaaclichtenstein]

I think the Villar-Perosa guy is very high because he's on a lot of domination maps, and because he's SOOOO powerful that he can be easily be active the entire game, while a lot of the other kits don't last as long.

[@edcottens4175]

I find the villar Perosa sentry to be the best all around, but the Trench raider is a vary close second, do the fact that it can heal it's self

[@petersmith5984]

I believe the villa paroza gets a lot of its usage time from the smaller map modes, as it seems to be the most available elite class in modes like domination, war pigeons, and TDM. I can think of 3 maps off the top of my head that have the villa paroza as the elite unit, and it feels like the other elite classes get less exposure on those smaller modes.

[@davidpausch8934]

Its villar perosa

[@plapkoki4119]

I've had a really bad day And your video make me forgot about it Thanks

[@Cpt-AM]

Nice video! I really like watching these tipe of videos! Keep on! Bye from Italy!!!

[@rpmlx]

My favorite is the Tank hunter. I love it when I destroy tanks and kill enemies from like 150-350 meters away, and them coming after me and targeting me, only to get killed by my sawed-off shotgun.

[@harrywarrior5758]

I think the reason why the villar perosa has so much time since its so good!

[@sethglass8349]

Wanna clear out a building? Villar Perosa. Wanna clear out a choke point? Wex. Wanna clear an objective out in the open? MG 08/15. Wanna troll infantry players and annoy tanks from across the map? Tankgewehr. Wanna do 1-3? Trench Raider Kit.

[@UltraBran]

Your videos are excellent! Good work man!

[@Rogue9]

+UltraBran thanks!

[@joshbogen8746]

Sentry class is just the most common, except for maybe the flamethrower. Plus, I seem to find sentry kits most often out of all maps in Conquest Monte Grappa.

[@baconandeggs159]

I believe the reason behind the high usage time is be because on both maps of Devil's Anvil the Germans get all Elite classes except for the Tank Hunter. The classes keep respawning, and the sentry smg is a very easy class

[@cavalrydude711]

On operations, tdm, war pigeons, domination and rush (mainly on domination) the villar perossa sentry kit is as common as the mg on conquest, actually only rush ,operations,argonnne forest domination and Sinai tdm have the mg

[@Rogue9]

That would explain the usage time then, thanks!

[@william_brobrine8975]

Dye or die ? No longer the case the flame trooper is now the kit on domination

[@gabenplznerf1093]

The villar parosa class is the most versatile and, as long as it's not alone and it has ammo, it's pure terrifying lead storm.

[@DoodleMan149]

A decent assumption of why the Villar Perosa has such a high usage time despite being only on Monte Grappa for Conquest is the fact that it typically camps the bunker of Butter. If it has a capable squad of Supports and Medics, it is almost unkillable in there.

[@NeoArmstrongJetArmstrongCannon]

My by far favourite elite is the flamethrower... But there's one thing about the tank hunter: you actually run faster, if you equip the double-barrel sawed-off shotgun...

[@wutschkorammo5]

now cavalry

[@littlebird52]

Very nice Video my Friend... Really

[@andreizedlav7303]

I think with the Double Italian Uzi Sentry you get more usage time because it's such a good weapon and the map layout gives it a lot of survivability.

[@XMarkxyz]

I appreciate the comparison but please call it with it's name: it is the first sub-machinegun of the history, it deserves some respect ;)

[@Youngboybetta]

I really like Villar Perosa. And I believe it's because of the reinforcements you get when you lose a platoon in Devils Anvil.

[@mahijack102]

The Villa Perosa has a high usage because it is available often in operations. For example, in the Oil of Empires operation it is available twice to the Ottoman side when they are defending the last 2 sectors in the Suez Canal map. It is also available on other operations.

[@FrttMs]

I really enjoy using the flametrooper if I have a good medic with me. If I get the flametrooper on Amiens I always try to act like a battering ram, and when it works, it's incredibly fun!

[@jroggs85]

Great video, Rogue-9. One correction: the sentries only have partial immunity to frontal melee strikes. It's only as long as their health is high. At lower health (I believe lower than the melee weapon damage), the melee attacker will be able to initiate a takedown kill from the front that ignores the sentry's defense buff.

[@Rogue9]

Thanks for sharing that, I didn't even think to test at low health but now that you mention it, I think I might have done it a couple of times in open game play

[@infinitsai]

also i believe that they are not immuned to melee from sides. full charged medical syringe can also insta-kill any elite class from any angle according to mythbuster testings but i find it unreliable, possibly glitch or just internet problems. btw a gas mask elite class kill is always my biggest dream in this game

[@veryimportantthought]

trench raider is the way to go in close range. with self healing and smoke grenades you can get in close and the raider club is the gift that keeps on giving.

[@totalawesomeness2310]

My favourite thing to do is find a squad with a sentry, especially the Villar Perosa and set up some dynamite and anti tank mines and blow them all up as they come down, most times one shooting the sentry and getting my much deserved justice

[@aMiyafuji]

I've used the Wex against the train on Argonne. If you prone at the bridge, they may not notice you, so you can rack up constant minor damage on it :D

[@mathieusmith5583]

Sentries: you simply never die

[@Xoais]

Villar perosa Sentry is available on several domination maps, probably helping it's stats out

[@andrewgee4101]

The Villar Perosa is more common because it's on a lot of Domination maps. Elite classes see a ton of use in Domination.

[@LockpickingMasta]

Hey Rogue I'd like to ask you a question which comes to my mind after I watched this video.The new medic specializations,which supposed to be Stimulant Syringe(After reviving an ally you both gain a 20% boost in sprint speed for 8 seconds) must outperform Trench Raider by almost 10 percent according to your data(111%) in terms of running. is it possible to test this out ? who is the flash of bf1 ? who is the fastest man alive lol ? cheers

[@louiss.w1944]

Nothing like knifing a flame trooper as soon as it turns his back on you

[@sheacorduroy5565]

The reason the Vilar Perosa is the 2nd most, is that the tracker goes by the time played. The Vilar Perosa is really good against players, so sentries last longer while using it.

[@jjhillary2654]

this guys is basically the driftor of battlefield

[@Rogue9]

I was once upon a time. Really hoping that BF 2043 does well and I'll get back to making BF videos!

[@jroggs85]

One big reason the Villar Perosa kit has so much usage time is because of team deathmatch. The kit is extremely common in the vanilla maps, appearing as the pick-up in 5 out of 10. (The MG 08/15 appears 3 times, the flamethrower 2 times.) This is compounded by the fact that the VP sentry is grossly overpowered for small-map TDM. A smart player can grab it (the first kit always comes 3 mins into the match) and keep it the entire match, racking up a ridiculous kill differential with its extremely fast kill speed and occasionally dipping out of the action for half a minute to heal. Even if you get bayoneted or otherwise killed, you have the advantage on the next drop because it happens 3 mins after the kit-wearer dies and you're one of two who knows when that was. Frankly, who wins or loses the match can often depend on who picks up the kit. The other two kits don't make nearly the same impact, and many players just won't even go for the MG 08/15 or Wex because they think they think the defense buff isn't worth the weapon inferiority. The VP is definitely OP. Abuse it or lose to it.

[@jroggs85]

One frustration with the Wex as well is that it's often very glitchy and unreliable. You can hose an enemy down sometimes and you just won't be doing damage for no clear reason. The range and wind-up time leaves flamethrowers oddly vulnerable to bayonet rushes that can easily push through the flames for the kill even if they die shortly after. Worst of all, perhaps, is the prone damage reduction. I think it was supposed to simulate a "stop, drop, and roll" countermeasure, but it works even if the player is STILL IN THE FIRE, be it an incendiary grenade or even a direct flamethrower attack. So a viable strategy if you're caught by a flamethrower is to go prone and unload into him, since your incoming damage will be heavily reduced for some reason even though the flamethrower is literally pouring fire right on top of you. It is broken and dumb.

[@jsmith2479]

Tank Hunter is my favorite

[@Immortaljme]

I love the tank hunter kit

[@gabrielberger7439]

Tip: don't get into a vehicle/horse when playing as the flametrooper as afterwards you become susceptible to fire damage. They need to fix that.

[@seanrich7969]

Tank hunter is super underrated. Might be because I mostly play scout but I kill SO MANY people with this gun. An insta kill anywhere on the map is pretty incredible if you have the accuracy for it.

[@harrisonoatridge4900]

On monte grappa, I was camping in grass and I got a quad fead with the shotgun and on a 25 person kill streak i was so proud

[@failedrevolutionary9497]

If I get the flame kit on basically any map.......WHOO! NO ONE else is getting kills this round, baby!

[@AztecDannyboy]

Tank hunter is my favorite

[@zbox6420]

9:25 shoutout to this support who went above and beyond to be helpful to his squad

[@felixbarth3103]

I think the Vila useage time comes mostly from Operations. On Infantry only Operations and some others instead of Behemoths you gain Elite classes. And there is pretty much always a vila available. Also the vila is so strong that people wielding that kit survive much longer then most other kits.

[@LiberatedWaveMan]

Sentries are not invulnerable to melee strikes, you can perform a takedown from the front back and side, and the same applies to bayonet charging. I personally die as a sentry mainly from bayonet charging from the front. No elite class is invulnerable, all of them can be bayonet charged or melee killed from any side

[@jclee0314]

one other thing i would have added is the balancing of the villar perosa. That fire rate drains the mags fast, and the double reload can make you scream when you get 2, and because of the horrible spawn mechanism in BF1, 3 more spawn on the dead bodies of the ones you just killed. no secondary is rough there.

[@MrSquidMasta]

Villa Perosa: Great for aggressive players. MG/08: Great for point defense due to magazine size. Wex: Area Denial. Trench Raider: Very disruptive and causes panic. Tank Hunter: Keeps vehicles in check. I personally like the Villa due to the TTK and reload speed. easy to kill two, three people at a time with it .

[@Anounymous707]

I'm pretty sure the Villar Perosa has a high usage time because of Team Deathmatch Servers. Its rare to see other elite classes spawn other than the Villar Perosa.

[@khh1964]

Would be interesting to see a server with only elite classes and all vehicles available always. Carnage. No ammo or medical, raiders would have to heal teammates 🤔. Could be fun though

[@Legionzzzz1]

If you play him right and have tight enough buildings, areas and places to hide like on the desert map, the flame trooper class is in my opinion the most powerful, you can hit people hiding behind windows, around corners, he basically has unlimited ammo because I used him for a entire game just about. Plus just about any trooper you hit is almost guaranteed to die from the burn.

[@BananaPhoPhilly]

The only time I got the flametrooper kit, I walked around for 15 minutes looking for enemies and got backstabbed. I don't think it's my thing lol

[@thomassiemsen850]

Villar perosa is used on Monte Grappa, Amiens and Empires Edge

[@asd1234asd1234asd]

Operation, that good sentry is very common there as somehow the auto join function of operation alway drop people into the italian-autrian operation and that map has this elite

[@LiberatedWaveMan]

The trench raider can even one shot the flame trooper or tank killer, however, the sentry takes no damage from the trench club.

[@Dolincek]

Ny favourite is the anti tank kit because you can realy snipe infantry and destroy vehicles... but it has small ammo capacity

[@meowmeowmeow594]

Dont you hate it when a Support class doesnt give ammo?

[@Rogue9]

+SouthSide Rizzy I had to turn down the gameplay volume during editing cs my character's constant shouting for ammo at this guy was interrupting my narration... how he didn't get it is beyond me...

[@BK201DarkerThanBlack]

I think the Sentries have a higher user time because of modes like TDM. The Villar Perosa and MG-05 elites are the most common on this gamemode (for non-DLC maps anyway). The Vex being slightly less common in the TDM versions of maps and the Tank Hunter not existing at all in TDM. If I had to guess, I think the Vex appears on 2 maps in non-DLC TDM. The Villar Perosa being on 4 maps. And the MG-05 has 3 maps.

[@xanthousfishjeretuna9778]

That guy at 9:20 sums up everything wrong with BF1. Nobody ever actually plays their class. It got to the stage where I was so frustrated that medics and assault, whoever has ammo bags, just wouldn't put their bags down so I ended up playing them to actually do that. Probably just my experience but people never use their class items when I'm in a game

[@joaogomes9405]

The villar perosa spawns only on Mount Grappa in conquest, non including the dlc maps, but it's pratically in every team deathmatch map.

[@Carky4001]

the villar perosa is the only elite class available in the team deathmatch and dominatoon gamemodes so thats why its so prevelant

[@Cyberpsychos_Dirge]

> Plays Nivell Nights Rush >Playing as Germans >Take the first section with a bit of trouble >Running to next section >Spies Trench Raider kit >Takes it, feels the melee power flow through me >Proceed to smash through every other section, not dying once and arming each tele with only losing ones I leave I await the day I can do it again

[@WinterOffensive]

That's some good pronunciation of Tahure.

[@guitarded55]

the Trench Raider is basically a french ww1 equivalent to the bearjew: bashing them German brains with a club

[@jclee0314]

villa perosa is a brutal class for holding down b flag on edge of world in domination

[@Shinzon23]

...why no tests with the Tankhunter vs planes? With Galicia, I find myself shooting down just as many planes as I perforate tanks...

[@ZxTennent01xZ]

Not gonna lie, that discord ‘advert’ is fucking brilliant 😂

[@BK--xj9ud]

the trench raider works the same as the sentries ,it cannot be melee killed from the front but can be stabbed from behind or bayonet charged

[@lllNiaNlll]

I see a lot of Villar Perosa players camp inside that bunker on Monte Grappa during CQ games, easily getting upwards of 40 kills and never dying. I suspect it has something to do with that.

[@zachhowe3368]

Only thing that's scarier then one elite is multiple elites especially if you play as double Uzi holding Italian man with French supersoldier that always needs healing

[@gunther4354]

i think the time spent with the villa perosa is because of the smaller gamemodes like domination in these modes you only find the villa perosa

[@TheWoah]

I see the Villar Perosa every time I play team death match.

[@Dimeocide]

the Villar perosa has the second most used play time because it's really damn good in close ranges, therefore you're less likely to be bayonet charged. I'm kinda surprised the MG is most used, I know it's most frequently spawned but I largely see it gets ignored. I think the tankgewer should be more powerful against vehicles, 3 shots to kill heavy tanks, that'd make it more viable as an anti vehicle weapon, it's largely just used against infantry

[@laxpors]

Bruh, flame troopers are OP! They rule in any indoor area, since they can clear an entire room in like 5 seconds! Maybe outside is where they're not so effective.
