![]() It can infact be quite nasty and pretty much act as an extra free shot. scuttle is inexcusable tho, that thing should be removed Meh, Scuttle is "alright" depending on what you are doing. his broadside may encourage braindead spamming but i find it useful for repositioning enemies (making sure they don't run away, moving them to a better spot for me to lmb them). Originally posted by Sad Alcoholic:i do love playing dredge using his full kit. Personally I wish Paladins would do another TF2 crossover like with Barik and give us a Demoman Dredge. I like Dredge's alien like skin the best as it suits him. I prefer Barik or Makoa's pirate skins to his base form. I agree, I am not too fond of the "Pirate" stereotype. When I am playing with my buddy he will go Strix and use his flares to reveal the enemies to me to "call in an artillery strike" from far away.īroadside is at it's absolute best when bounced off of a wall for a better effect. If you fire it just right it forms a "wall" and forces players to go where you want them to. I love using his broadside to "encourage" people not to go somewhere. And yeah, he is every pirate stereotype, but because of it I see him as less of an actual pirate, and more of some ♥♥♥♥♥♥' idiot pretending to be a pirate and loving how silly it is. I really like him, but I'm the kind of person who likes being able to make traps, self-sustain and just generally likes being tricksy. He's pretty fun, though he does play a lot differently then most other damage champions. ![]() But, well, perhaps I can look over that once I get the hang of him. I'm all up for pirates, but Dredge is every stereotype thrown into a blender and turned obnoxious. I just could never get over his character. Originally posted by Hanley:Maybe I should give him another chance, your post's definitely making him sound very fun to play with lots of possibilities. Yet you get mastery 20+ dredges who do nothing but make the champion look bad and "under-rated" Stop giving the number one Pirate Boi a bad name and smarten up. Why? It should be common knowledge and players should be putting 2 and 2 together by the time they get Dredge to about rank 7 or 8 at the latest. Lets discuss his other best tool that is pretty much an "Anti Flank Alarm" his "harpoon" under the right Talent your Harpoon is a trip mine that hits and deals severe damage to anything int he area, including covering your back against flanking champions and "alarming" you to their location so you can deal with them.Īgain, this is never utilised. They even went and gave him the perfect kits and even talents to do so. They never seem to grasp the fact that their weapon has one of the best capabilities in the game and all it requires is minimal map knowledge and an understanding of "hey, my weapon bounces bombs off walls and around corners." They never take advantage of this.ĭredge played as a proper champion is an unstoppable form of "Heavy Artillery" who can lob grenades over walls, buildings around corners and generally long distances towards spotted enemies in an area without ever exposing your self to danger. This tactic is pretty much useless outside of trying to set a trap for an enemy to encourage them to "go where you want them to be" or area denial to some extent. "Yay whoo hoo! It does good damage" Sure, only against dumb people who sit there and stand around them while they slowly rise off the ground and detonate. They only sit there and spam Broadside over and over and thats it. This very same "personal portal" is a fairly strong self heal that never goes away and keeps healing you when you are near it. *This is a problem because time and time again you see Dredges with only the barebones of items* That gives you a tremendous advantage over anybody else that allows you to near instantly adapt your items for the game assuming you got the credits. They don't utilise quite possibly the best escape/get out of jail free that can teleport you "ANYWHERE" from "ANYWHERE" this means that you can teleport back to your spawn, buy items and teleport back to where you were in the span of 10 seconds. Lets start with the most common mistakes that make them extremely easy pickings and just a general letdown for the ones teamed with them. I believe the term for them is "One Trick Pony" and you'd think it would just be a couple doing this right? Wrong. It's truly amazing how many times I see dredge players falling for the same exact "noob traps" and never actually developing a better understanding of the character.
