*shrugs* maybe it stacks with doc DoT's...
Otherwise its waste of time, silly nanocost too little damage.

malaclava 2005-07-28 21:47

Mannystk 2005-08-18 00:30

Aimed shot does more dmg than Full auto?

dethter 2005-10-23 00:36

most of the time

dethter 2005-11-11 17:20

Entombed 2005-11-16 08:54

-AHEM-
a soldier with JCGPP and JPGPP has a 15ish second FA recharge doing up to 15k.... just so you know >.>...

fantsom 2005-12-21 04:27

*Ahem* 11s FA loop with jpgpp is easy (i think its 1475 skill).. 15k FA is bit harder since jpgpp has only 10 bullet clip

Froobcake 2006-02-02 06:21

They Should Make It little More Better Damage , Maybe 300-400 Damage

Why? Agents don't need no DoTs to deliever damage, that's what that big blue dildo is for, and all the barrage of perks that come with it. Only reason you end up being able to cast this thing is because you need BM/MM for heals anyway... Totally useless line.

Rayney 2006-05-07 20:12

Why is everyone comparing FA to AS when you cant AS in mid fight like you can with FA.

tabsl 2006-05-16 20:08

It is damage... not more and not less ;)

Xsonic 2006-06-09 06:22

Nanocost 1431. save some for CHs.

In pvp you can =)

Vladja 2006-07-03 09:22

And... aimed shot never misses

Kingduck 2006-07-25 02:38

this can be very usefull in PvP if your opponent runs into a backyard.. root him and put DoT when he zones and he'll still be rooted when he appears in the BY (or other zone) so if you got him to almost dead the dot will finish him off :P

Yakobo66 2006-08-16 18:18

lol its 20 hits... thats like 4.3k more dmg :)

Retracnad 2006-08-16 23:33

its deadly enough, think of it as a small 215 damage proc every 4 seconds

phantobe 2006-08-26 08:50

Hehe, yeah id say its decent ;) but nano cost a bit high.

Tarradax 2007-01-26 20:45

Everyone seems to forget something. PvP damage is halved, so in PvP this is 107 per tick, or just a little over 2k overall. Lameness.

Jedrox 2007-04-21 23:06

this is actually a very useful nano, you cast it on some enemy while pvping (in bore or where ever in where you could zone), he starts zoning, you hit him to 0hp, but when he zones before hitting 0hp, he can survive, but the dot is the only thing that can finish him off, unless he has mongo or some other hot that over heals the dot's damage...
anyways, i hope you understood what i ment

Danathos 2007-06-01 00:51

reduces their HD doesnt it?:P

Darketernal 2008-10-23 18:30

yeah the nano cost is high and whatever but its more dmg... if u are in a raid or something and have pnh/ior then why not? Why complain abt more dmg? It isnt usful in all situations but it can be nice depending what u are doing...

Moniker 2010-07-16 07:23

The one lower than this may be useful given its greatly reduced recharge time it would easily be spammable.

Antagonist 2012-02-06 14:02

Hopefully they fix this line of nanos with the rebalance, because right now they're less useful than swimming buffs.
