melee fomars. - Sebastian - 16-11-2005
why is there melee fomars? people are always boasting about how melee fomars rock hard and stuff but my fomar is cast and does lots lots better, and casting gets the job done super faster. i even have 30/30 s/d and 28/28 j/z and im still worse than me cast.
so basiclly, why are melee fomars so good? you could pick a hunter and get hurt 1/4 the damage you do as a force.

Wait till ult, FO's techs damage decrease alot when you hit Ult.

i already did hit ult :l. my fomar does just about as much damage melee but my techs hit all the enemies in the room making it done a lot faster... so i think melee forces are kinda pointless :l.

melee FOmars are not bad; there are some people that just like the FOmar class and like to use their cool weapons and stats! but, they can be a bit pointless because they are really hard to use, and like you said, you could just use a hunter- but stil, melee FOmars can be a lot of fun! it all has to do with personal preferences. my FOmar is not on ult, but i still have a hard time without his techniques. I use a spell casting weapon and use good techniques when i need them {which is a lot}

depends what you call "fun" if you liked getting knocked around like a rag doll and not blowing the crud out of things with lvl 30 rafoie, then yes its very "fun".
still though:
hunters are for melee. Forces are for casting, k thx bai.
and i always thought in l8r stages like seabed you should use spells like rabarta to freeze enemies and megid (because it owns ep.2) to youre advantage because rabarta can sure make youre life easier... (learned from experience)

Why do you ask a question and then argue with people about the answer? And melee FOmars are for players looking for something new and different to do. With the right mag and mat use, a melee FOmar can do some good damage. Sure, you still have to do SOME techs but not nearly as much as a casting FO does. Plus FOmars can use some pretty cool weapons.

Shadowninja is really right- "melee FOmars are for players looking for something new and different to do" "Sure, you still have to do SOME techs but not nearly as much as a casting FO does. Plus FOmars can use some pretty cool weapons.", like i said, it's all about personal preference. some people like a challenge, while others like completely owning things.

Sebastian Wrote:hunters are for melee. Forces are for casting, k thx bai.True, that doesnt stop people from playing them how they want.

Some people use melee RAngers, or casting RAngers, for the same reason that they use mele FOmars. And just because someone plays the game different then you doesn't make it the wrong way to play.

o _ o; im not argueing, this is what i hate about text, you cant here peoples tones kinda like when people talk in caps they figure they is yelling when they could just be bolding something important O _ O.
and phantom, i hate playing ep.2 with online mode because everything does wayyy too much damage to me so i usually solo so nobody would care anyway
.edit: whoa fast reply, i never heard of a casting ranger... i see ramarls mixing their magic with range sometimes (they are pwnage, nothing like a class using all of what they were blessed with), and there are melee rangers because i used to have a melee racaseal but there is tons of melee fomars. o _ o;
double edit: im not saying its the wrong way to play im asking what started this melee fomar fad and why do they do it. just because i said forces are for casting and hunters are for melee thus named hunters and forces i wasnt insulting my peeps.
