Guide for Fixer and Reaper : The Duct Side : Everlasting HP

being normal fixer is much easier in terms of items because you can use almost anything (when talking about green items), you can use even one tape when you wish to
while selfish fixers need only one of the four items, bolt is completely useless for really selfish fixers, pulse is useless unless you have high level one so it gives some decent self healing, box can be used when you have nothing better because it can counter some lower level burst weapons by the immediate health regen (you can also use it for team healing), tape is simply the best option
the chance of getting green item from chest is really low when comparing to other item colors and chance of getting tape is even lower so you need to go through very long grinding process to get normal levels of items

 

If it’s due to the RNG that makes one lacking to be a normal fixer then I’ve nothing to rebut that! Hahahha. Very very fair point bro

 

I wanted to say that it's hard to be true selfish fixers because of the RNG
when you get green item chance of getting tape is 1:3
when you get random color item the chance of getting tape is 1:34, and you need RNG to give you the one item with chance of getting only 1:34 multiple times to be even usable

 

I think that actually rage is the reason why there aren't tape fixers on nightmare. People offend them so much that they have psychological pressure to change their items or leave the game.
I like to play with every boat but I'm mainly a speeder and I do several mistakes, way more than most selfish fixers I played with, but after more than 16k battles only 1 guy offended me, while a tape fixer receives rage on daily basis.

 

Possibly, and if I may add to that, I’d say for a fair reason too. Cause if you’re playing as a selfish fixer but you display decent skills to awe your team mate, putting myself in that scenario, the tendency to rage if pretty low. I can relate because the selfish fixers from ace who triggered me played like a moron and just charged in without any gaming sense as if he’s some immortal zombie with his 3X tapes. I rage not mainly because he’s a tape fixer but due to him being a noob tape fixer with no tact. And because of him and some other instances with other noob selfish fixers, they get generalized to be deemed “useless”

 

I don't think it is a fair reason because there are tons of ace players as noob as they are (me, for example) doing mistakes that put them on the same place (or we wouldn't have the same infamy), I just think it is easier to call them out because they wouldn't be able to fix anybody no matter how much their team wanted.
They are the easiest target after people lose a battle. "I don't have to even care about how poorly I played, there was a tape fixer on my team, that's why we lost!" is a very convenient argument used almost every time a tape fixer is on a losing team. If Porthos was a noob, I'm sure people would say they lose because of his cannon.

 

I wouldn’t say that I’m a great player just because I’m in nightmare but here’s my two cents. I think tape fixers do have potential in a sense that they can draw agro while healing extremely fast and be a nuisance- allowing team to have better focus fire on the unfriends. This is what I call a good and smart play by poking in and out to cause diversions. But nope, most selfish fixers just charge in thinking they’re immortal and die without being relevant in the fight. They serve no purpose, can’t heal others, can’t damage, only burdens. It comes down to gameplay and personal skills.

 

@TheAntiSnipe @Rainbow Warrior @Mervin sorry for bothering you guys, but for what is that "grilled" battle highlight? you probably know more about BB so you might know it

 

Hahaha that’s funny! Thanks for sharing and I’ve never seen this highlight before because I’ve never stayed long enough in napalm-ed area XD It’s just a sarcasm to say you enjoy being grilled in fire for probably staying in the affected area long enough

 

I stayed in napalms since the first contact with enemy (my guildmate), there were maximaly two (or maybe three in very short period) napalms on me, got this three times
I stayed in napalms because we tried to farm some crazy damage (failed, only something above 13k, but only from napalm and flare gun)

 

I think you nailed it

True they shouldn’t be idiots, but If a tape fixer doesn’t charge at the beginning and sits back, then that leads to the belief that he is a normal fixer which hurts the team a lot

 

Lol, thank you kind sir.
Anyhow bro, just my humble advice- if you’re going down the path of selfish fixer, whether a semi or full fledged one, it’s important to play smart and kite instead of charging to exchange shots in a direct brawl Be the first to poke in to draw attention and then back off soon to poke another. Being annoying is key imo as a selfish fixer to have any value in the bay

 

Charging is fine and in fact charging first is appropriate but knowing when to back off to heal up and poke again is key, rather than going ham and die early then be irrelevant

 

thanks

 

I agree

 

No other made it because we don't
-lucky to get legend and epic items
-use our credit card so often

Lol

 

I think I should change my name again.

Focus fire on me is making me mad hahahaha

Even when not using fixer.

I need to get 1000 pearl 1st.
