Best ESF Dogfighters

lol @ this list. Ive ran into a fraction of this list. Rest havent heard of or are not good at all.

Could you share your opinion on which ones aren't good?

Aswell as your in-game name.

It's quite hard to locate people in the sky with the new spotting change, but the chances of finding what 10 specific players on a server with thousands is not a easy task. After awhile you figure out where to find certain players and what areas they usually fly in.

As for saying you haven't heard of some of them or they are not skilled is basically claiming you have no idea or you think your better. This thread and the people in it have been communicating back and forth for a good while now and literally everyone on that list is a threat in the air you would not see from everyone else. Is the list incomplete? Yup always will be with new players always coming in and getting better and better as time goes. Even old pilots get better as time goes. Is the list accurate? Pretty much dead on as far as the people on it and how well they are in dogfights and overall ability.

I'd ask you kindly to remove your insults from discussion here. Even cross faction you will hardly hear degrading remarks aimed at each other.

How much skill is required to use it?

None, against bad pilots, but in a air reverse duel with a pilot knowing your using it..........the skill increase goes up. It's hard as hell to do damage when people keep their distance 100% of the time, but lucky shots can quickly change the outcome of any fight.

I see Airhammer as a different playstyle and can be used pretty skillfully in dogfights but overall it's more of a luck based instagib cannon. It sure is fun to use though.

Have y'all ever run into this guy? I've never seen him in the air before until today.

Worked me over with a walker before I could get my first hailstorm mag out. Can't say I've ever seen that happen before.

Walker?

Yeah, that useless liberator tailgun that pubbie lib crews use to try to ward off fighters.

What! That's what that thing is called.......dood that gun is like a ESF destroyer in shotgun range.

I think thats Skwurtings 4th or 5th account on the ban chopping block...

Havent seen a walker destroying people super quick before, and the name kinda rings a bell but Im not sure. It was fun yesterday on Amerish with you sneak attacking Xnak and killing him before we could react. Ive never fought you before but it looks like i have another VS name to put on my list of great fights.


Edit** that dude has a 54% overall accuracy with this lib? that seems pretty damn high to me..

That walker does some serious damage but requires the ESF to not be moving much while being quite close.

54% is pretty high, but considering dalton and zepher splash damage hitting multiple infantry, that might be possible to do, but if he's using the walker highly unlikely.

looking at his kill feed right now, he used the shredder for the last 100 kills, and died once in there. seems like a pretty beasty dude to rip that hard in a shredder. (or have a beasty pilot that is)

Prolly hacks then. Prolly Yolopatron alt lol.

Take another look, the kills are seconds apart from each other >.>

I need a wingman, 2v1s are kinda crummy. Good fights though.

As for the linked guy, his current timeline has him averaging over 100 liberator kills an hour (he took a break after that one death). That's pretty beastly for shredding. Also, his headshot/kill rate (1/33) is incredibly high for liberator gunning (most BR100s have around 100 kills per headshot), especially given that a third of his kills are vehicle based.

You need a wingman just give me a shout in game. There is no enemy ESF pilots on waterson that are greater than a 1:1 ratio against me. I do everything with my ESF and dog fighting is the one thing that I humiliate the enemy with. On waterson, 99% of pilots are garbage. And of those, 80% bail.

I really like the scenarios you guys did. The few times that I've done planned 1v1's we've just started at opposite ends, passed and then fought

Don't get so high and mighty about it.


Smilies, I'm sure Jaxom would fly with you too though.

Kind of self centered don't you think? Little too egotistical.
