A guide to proper sharking

[Ward]

then why are you reading it?

Did i say i was reading it LOL?

I just looked at the amount of text you typed, its ridiculous.

Why don't you just make a book out of it and publish towards basing geeks..

You anti-scrub newbie :turned:

[Ward]

Surely enough I'm ignorant.. as opposed to your all-knowing basing intellect.

You're probably a female (from what I've heard), in late 20's, with no life no job and no husband, who spent weeks to prepare a fucking shark guide and, out of sheer depression, is willing to do 2 more for spider and and terrier.

Terrible. You basing newbie.

Instead of reading this useless crap I could just go practice shark in game and learn more from it if i put as much time in practicing as I would in reading this.

Hmm... It took me roughly 10 minutes to read the entire guide... If you can master a ship in 10 minutes... why do you still suck so bad?

Sarcasm, you moron. I'm just pointing out the extent of uselessness in her ginormous post.

This is the first time I have heard of a guy being accused of a girl (in TW).

I liked the guide bete, I noticed a few gaps.

-Strategic mining in FR battles
-When to not bomb and when to bomb enemy cram

I didn't read it all so I may have missed it though.

Good job Bete, thanks for contributing to the community.

Thoughts on a shark always ending with >3.0 RPD? Is it better to ALWAYS do 3 reps each death or die <3 reps trying to time? (Note the number of people who are critical of sharks who 'rep too fast' when a shark decides to use last rep vs. dying.)

And what about greening? IMO the importance of shark greening is the least understood attribute by all players, (except perhaps the terrier you play for).

RPD (reps per death) and GPG (greens per game) should be a part of game stats.

[milosh]

good point on greening.... it's my belief that the shark should be the main prize harvester on the team.... there is no reason for a spider to get a green if a shark is near since the shark can benefit from the green and the spider can't. prizes are obviously important to collect for the terrier as well.

[screamo]

A full charge for a spider can really be killer...

[milosh]

i'm talking about after an fr is cleared... there is no reason for a spider to go flying into the ears to get greens

There is no secret to sharking in a cram situation that a guide of any length can teach. You rep, rep, rep, die, respawn and repeat. Any actual skill you hope to gain in the ship is self taught through observation and practical application. Not to criticise your efforts, but this was a collosal waste of your time as no one who needs to learn will actually read it.

I would agree with this, although the sharing of two sharks is what is most important in the act of the 3 reps to shield your team and allow their bullets to pass. Once dead the 2nd shark takes over and does the same manuever. Usually it's a talented jav that will get his bomb through the side and kill the Terr that has no ports and or is not paying attention that ruins this for the shark in the cram defense.

you could not make it clearer that you are new to basing
