    Has anyone ever considered killing the fixer first as a strategy? Seems to me a lot of battles are lost solely because the fixer was allowed to live for too long. Give it a try and see if it helps your game.... /sarcasm.

    It depends on the fixer in question. I've seen some devious fixers carefully retreat, making you chase them into an ambush. There's also noob fixers with weak gear that you can out-DPS and selfish ones who are distractions.


    Making the distinction makes the difference between a noob assassin and a pro assassin.

    I can see that at the beginning of a match but after a minute or so, that no longer applies. I just witnessed a player with lots of hp left, up against one speeder half dead and a fixer that could have been killed off with one shot. The player ignored the fixer who kept the speeder alive and brought himself back to life. He could have won the match if only he took out the fixer first. But he didn’t,

    Depends on the setup and how it pans out during the game. Usually if there is a fixer they tend to be called out first for obvious reasons. The challenge is whether you can get to them or if the unfriendly team is posing too much of a risk and are defending the fixer.

    If their defense is strong you'll tend to switch to another priority target and out damage the healing. Personally unless there are 2 fixers, I'd be more bothered about taking out a DPS as a fixer can't cover focused fire.

    Yeah, I had to google DPS cause all I could come up with was “Dumb Piece of Sh*t” and that just didn’t seem right.

    Sometimes if it’s a 5v2, (5 shooters vs 1 shooter and fixer) going for the shooter is better because you can out damage the heals, The fixer has no one to heal and their firepower is lost.

    There is not enough stun on a team to keep the fixer from fixing things.

    honestly, I play fixer and unless you have duct tape in your build then you are good at healing others and bad at healing yourself, so targeting the healer would be a good strategy, except healers tend to stay at the back (so that won't happen).

    Totally kill the fixer (I play enfo and fixer). Smart fixer will hang back— you can’t nibble away at the unfriends as long as that fixer is there. But if you have a fixer and they don’t, you win the long game.

    Your all going about this wrong!
    A fixer on enemy team gives you the perfect opportunity to shine! Unload your torps and mortars evenly among unfriend boats from a safe distance until time runs out ;) it's all about personal damage records
