I became an anti-air Harasser main to advance my Heavy Assault directives (Planetside 2)

2:27 dude that was the coolest shit I've ever seen. That was straight out of an action movie.

[@ThankYouForComing]

NSAutopilot is (was?) a very prolific Valk pilot on Connery with some of the most wild skills I've ever seen.

[@Ritsy]

I remember doing this the old-fashioned way back in 2016 - sitting at the enemy warpgate with a friend, both of us using the faction specific G2A launcher. This was back when they would put an ESF to burning in 2 hits too, so it was suprisingly effective even with only two people. It definitely pisses people off to no end though, and they WILL come back and try and wreck your shit.

[@ThankYouForComing]

It's a lot harder to do this because people don't really pull from the warpgate anymore :( I remember those days especially on Indar eastern warpgate. Camping that plateau with AA was super BM haha.

[@sartheym]

Turbo battle ant is also good shit like a bmp (apc): less maneuverability, tough and much more cross-country ability. I am exactly the person who takes it, puts the radar (100m radius), turns on the headlights and starts to nightmare the infantry at the point. ESPECIALLY infiltrators.

[@ThankYouForComing]

It seems like it can work well.

I'm glad!

[@ThankYouForComing]

it was pretty cool, though

[@AdStellae-]

Totally stealing this, thanks Chad!

[@efraim3364]

you have to be a HA while doing it for it to count tho

[@efraim3364]

prolly about 80% of my kills with the walker are LA's hehe

I hate air, so this was very satisfying. Thank you!

glad to be of service

You have nice taste in music, it's a great video to watch and just enjoy! Though you probably suffered a lot to make it, huh?

[@ThankYouForComing]

This wasn't incredibly difficult, it just took a super long time :( Thanks though and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@valarmorghulis3197]

Wow didn't know about this. Thanks for the tip 👍🏻

[@ThankYouForComing]

yeah, it's pretty common, most people do it for this directive, I did not discover it

[@GroundGame.]

Walker, the best everything bagel. 😎

[@Hekkler72]

Sigh, I did this the old fashioned way. I'm 8 lock on launcher hits away from the aurax

[@ThankYouForComing]

Good luck! That sounds like it would have taken me like 5 years.

[@SalandFindles]

LOL, I also did it the old fashioned way like that, years ago, though. I've long since auraxiumed every single class.

[@EokaBeamer69]

Shooting a flying Magrider should count toward air deterrence. Btw. I dont know if you kno this but: Racer is only 6 km/h faster than scrapper. Thats right. The speed advantage is almost non-existent if you use your Harassers turbo. Try it out. Race 2 Harrays 1 with racer on with scrapper, there will be no significant difference. In fact when I run my tests (I did over a dozen) the Racer driver would often lack behind because he has to slow down to control his Harasser or he just crashes. Scrapper is the most tactically superior chassis. There is NO reason to use racer over it.

[@ThankYouForComing]

I used to run scrapper and rival for everything, I don't remember why I switched. Thanks for the reminder and explanation.

[@EokaBeamer69]

@@ThankYouForComing Well Scrapper just has so many advantages. For one it is easier to control/less slippery. So you can focus less on driving and not losing control and more on your enemies around you. You also have a lot tighter turning radius and more responsive steering for precision driving. The tight turn circle eliminates the need for drifting that many people talk about to defend racer. You also have faster reverse speed so if you mess up you can recover a lot faster.

[@efraim3364]

nice, yeah there is a bit of overlap on directives

Does it only work in harras or can i use an ant?

I'm 90% sure it's only harassers. I mean, you can try it and if it works let me know!

[@ralfreichts6578]

Walker or Ranger for AA Haraasser?

[@ThankYouForComing]

Walker for long range, Ranger for short range/more dmg it's super hard to use the Ranger to hit stuff flying far away because the spread is so large and the bullets move so slowly

[@ralfreichts6578]

@@ThankYouForComing Okay, thank you very much :)

@@ralfreichts6578 sure thing!

it only works with the harasser?

[@ThankYouForComing]

Well, it doesn't work in a Skyguard, I know that much. It might work in other vehicles. You can try it. :0 I have AA guns on my Sunderer but I didn't try it. I know you can get AA top guns on an Ant or MBT too but I don't know about those. Sorry.

[@Jvn.k0]

i’ll check it out later, keep up the good work

@@Jvn.k0 thanks, I'll try my best

[@perianudan-claudiu2495]

I think I've done this directive on all my chars. Heavy weapons assist, on none of them :| You can't assist with jackhammer, you have to stop shooting and dance around while allies manage to kill your target (they may be sadists, cuz they take a long time).

[@perianudan-claudiu2495]

Stealth is good, if you're successful, aircraft would team up and search for you. Flak seems the best when aircraft want to kill you in CQC (noobies mostly, more of them near a bastion). Btw, I've almost won with a walker stealth sundie against a dalton lib (they searched for me CQC), but I couldn't do the same with the flak.

[@randyohm3445]

And yet all I see on reddit whenever AA is brought up is how useless it is and how it needs a huge buff. :D

[@ThankYouForComing]

it is pretty useless, I barely killed or scared away anyone in the entire time I did this
