Hoki.
Imma gonna reset when then adv nano gets out. And I gonna reset conceal too I guess, since I dont do catacombs no more.
A certain pompous professional enfo(with a high lvl shade alt) showed me his skill, with a 100% SA without beeing concealed in a inf mish, and I cannot replicate this, not even on the BY guard. Even tried beeing behind him @ pop, but couldnt SA him 100%.
Soooo whats the trick?
Any skilled melees out there?
basically, you run in, spam SA, and hope it goes off before the mob notices you :) generally when i do it, i come around corners etc and do it, or through doorways
guess, high runspeed, and no lag are ya best bets.
Yeah, best try to get as close as possible like red said, around a corner or whatever. Make sure you're the first person to hit the mob, too. Run straight towards the mob, spamming tab and SA and it generally works for me. Works much better on RK than SL dungeons though, in my experience.
In RK missions I seen SA land for 90% of times min. In SL, lets say about 50%. Check your map and rush to mob. I haven't seen a increase in SA hits if you are behind it, so I just rush, tab and hit SA.
You have to get in first. Once the mob has seen someone and gone agg, you won't be able to SA (or AS) them without being concealed. Kinda like Advy calms, gotta get them before they notice that there is something going on.
I dont agree, since i can still SA even if mob is fightning somone else as long they are behind closed door; then i just spam SA while opening em and land it almost always.Quote:

u know, I've been doing this almost naturaly for a long time now but nvr took a minute to observe the rules involved with what I was doing...I think your approach to the mob has the most influence, running fast, and attempting to land SA BEFORE u stop seems to work the best, some ppl have mentioned that jumping over the mob helps, I practiced that as well, but had little or no effect imo. I have been lucky enough a few times tyo get in an SA and a BS by running up facing a mob, jumping over it for the BS...but I couldn't freakin duplicate the results when I tried yesterday in an LE mish. alot of work, but when u get it down to muscle memory, that fat SA makes a big difference, plus it breaks up the tedium that exists in adve melee, adve melee in team oriented missions/raids is very boring imo, we lack any real high dmg specials, and beyond perks, and brawl on aliens, the only one we can rly use, BS, seems to draw more aggro than it deserves in raids situations.. wtb better taunts for enfoz! I would say that unconcealed SA is not an exact science, but one of those things that work great and make u feel good when it lands, and u can look forward to improving with much practice.
yah, moving, being the first to attack, and hit SA at the exact max range seems to be the best way to get them in. Having a constant and massive doorlag would not:P I wonder if SA really is about sync issues ;)
