AA Effective Discussion

I’m wondering what you guys thought of the AAs.

At first I thought Promethean Vision was OP, but using it puts a nice red ping around you on the map and the colors are pretty disorienting, thus I think they did a good job balancing it out.

Lately I’ve been using Regeneration, Auto-Sentry, and Thruster Pack.

Regeneration works well, especially in BTB for support. I like how it doesn’t recharge too fast and if you’re being hit while in it, you don’t regen.

Auto-Sentry to me seems worthless. I don’t think I have ever gotten a kill with it, let alone have it assist me. A few times I popped it and to observe only to see people get hit by it a few times and barely get a scratch. I’m not sure what the point of this AA is if it barely does any damage.

Thrust Pack is alright, but not the best. I have gotten out of some stick situations with it, but more times than not it seems a little too slow. Not to mention forcing you to go into 3rd person while using it in a way makes you too vulnerable and an easy target at times.

To be honest, I haven’t really found any of the AAs too useful. This probably means I am using them wrong though. Also, 99% of the time in Reach, I used Sprint. It was the only AA I found that truly gave me an edge a great deal of the time (besides Evade). There is also a ridiculously OP upgrade that gives you infinite Sprint, which honestly couldn’t make me happier.

Since now everybody has Sprint, and I have infinite of it, I don’t have much use for any other AA. Sprint was just so applicable because of the mobility it gave you. I’m so used to using nothing but Sprint, that it’s all I’ve really ever had to use.

All are pretty much useless
