Well, Banshee seemed like a good idea at first, but trust Rogues gangs to come with a tactic to destroy the one thing that empowered solo players in the DZ. Had this happen to me on three different servers today and if you checkout Mounty Carl's vid on youtube he has identified the same thing. Basically one person does not join the Rogue group. When you shoot back the non-rogue body blocks causing the solo player to go rogue. Then all 4 focus fire you and take your DZ funds and xp. I now have zero DZ funds and no desire to ever return to the DZ. Banshee is now a worthless set to me. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for PVP and happy to 1v1 but how can I be expected to have a fighting chance when there are four flame turrets pointed at me when I run out of a checkpoint.
This has been an issue since beta. They seem very set on encouraging this behavior for some reason. We've all given Massive plenty of suggestions to fix the issue. Two popular ones are:Originally Posted by freddieS281 Go to original post
1 - Rogue group mates are automatically set to rogue once they are within range of another rogue group member. This prevents a rogue group from having a member die and come back and act as an "innocent shield".
2 - Have an option to enable or disable personal friendly fire. It's silly to have people running around in front of you just to force you into rogue. If you have no intent on damaging another non-rogue player, then allow the option to not be able to do damage to non-rogues entirely. If you're intent is to damage another player, then disable this option and rogue to your hearts content.
Non-rogue people jumping in your line of fire to make you go rogue has been happening since launch.
Personally, I love the Banshee set as a solo, DZ-hater. I can equip my Banshee, head into the DZ, complete my daily/weekly missions, collect my cache, and get out of there. I don't even worry about the rogue, if they kill me, so what. Come back, enter the DZ through the breaches (not the checkpoints), and finish my daily/weekly missions. I can even go in there to farm exp and credits. If the rogues want to kill me, who cares, I won't lose anything.
Why are you even bothering to shoot back at three other people if they are rouge like that, especially if you are wearing banshee and actually care bout your DZ rank and funds? I get it, getting caught out once fair enough, but doing the same thing until you lose all your credits? Also going out the SAME camped checkpoints? DZ 01 checkpoints are the noob farm zone, I never have issues at DZ 3+ checkpoints. If you got banshee, you should just clap emote and not shoot back at rouge teams like you encountered.
I kind of agree, but the biggest issue I seem to have is at a certain point, I stop doing damage to rogues all together. The health meter gets so close to death and my shotgun (or whatever) starts to shoot blanks. When I get shot at now, I just stand there and let it happen because I lose no XP or credits. I don't really pick stuff up anymore just to give others nothing.
He probably doesn't have a 4 piece Banshee, or he cannot adapt and learn.
Is it me or doesn't this seem obvious?
If you run into a full team, you are alone, and they have already ganged up on you before, maybe run in the other direction? Stop doing the same damned thing, expecting a different result.
Agree with players who just wear the banshee to go in the DZ to do daily's etc I'm the same I dont pick any gear up so i dont care if rogues attack but have to say I kill them as much as I get killed. I have most of the gears sets and weapons I want.i go in to get credits and raise my rank up.as for dps and toughness I wear the banshee set with 2 pieces of nomad and can complete Challenge difficultly missions so I just keep it on.
