Rines for Breakfast!

Onos "Devour".. Any tips?

ie aiming, timing??

good question...

i only made it 1 time to eat one of those....

but well, i like pizza much more anyways XD

Aim for their feet, also, it has quite a good range, you don;t have to be touching them to use it, it's especially useful on CO maps when JP rines sit on boxes, you can just devour them and runaway

Here you can download a pack of Sprites for ALL alien weapons including devour...that may help you a bit.

a good tactic if marines do a HA rush is that u can onos....charge or stomp at them...devour (aim at legs or feet) ...and run away until u digest the marine finished...then so the same thing over again. Ha dont taste very good but its a good tactic 8)

I play for aiming on CO map.
No bots or others... I'm a fun player

Very bad thing: If I'm level 45 onos on CO map, all normal and xmenu upgrades full, and onos very fast, I like that, can eat many marine... but on normal game is slow with only celerity...

If you want a massacre, go onos, and capricance (+ damage, more armor), celetity (speed), focus (2x damage, but 3x slower). This is the biggest damage on alien side I think.

rines,JPs only 1-2 hit, HAs about 3-5...

I was killed with this onos in streak more than ten - no gorges, no help -> die

onos with focus need good aim, you dont miss it -> you will die

Better:
1. devour 1 marine,
2. go hive/heal -> max hp
3. go attack, if on half hp, go 2., if marine eated, go 1.

ahh...moti ur tatic will only work if you are camper at the co map... cuz I notice that you always hide at the corner camping waitin for marine =.= ... and one thing...devouring jper is not easy at all. Perhaps you can spare times

Thanks for the replys. Sounds good and will give it a go so watch you're siX!
