No, everybody would be able to spam it, and the people who have put hours into levelling it would be completely **** over.

given that for as long as i played this game (level 30 here), i have been killed only once with Air Stomp, it's fair to say it's useless.


it's like the Ltag. powerful, but inaccurate. the LTag leaves an obvious trail and has a minimum range.


the Air Stomp can be heard from across the map, making you a prime target. it's duck hunting, since you're immobile afterwards

Because if nobody disagreed, or presented any points as to why the perk should NOT be removed and given to everyone, logic says it would be more likely to happen.

As it stands I'm not worried.

Immense logical fallacy. By your logic, seeing as I've lived to 21 and have never been killed by a gun, they must be useless also. Or, as an in game example, I have never been killed in game by a JAW missile (level 34), but we all know they're not useless.

You have not been killed by airstomp because you have more than likely not played many people who use it, and amongst the ones that do, you have probably found few that use it effectively, or of the ones who use it effectively you may simply have been lucky not to be hit by it. There are too many variables for you to base such a conclusion on.

Lately, I've regularly been getting K/Ds of 2.5/3 and upwards, and all the time I've been successfully using air stomp. I have also, relative to your initial post, seen some people using the LTAG very effectively.

You should probably try not to discount skills that you do not possess.

agreed MMAMickey

I don't think it's a useless perk, but less usable by most (including my self ^^) players, so they wont put time and effort in it to increase its value.

I've seen some players using it as an "drop zone cleaner". Works perfect if ur good at it.

Atm Im trying to use it more often, to get it up to the next level.
90% I fail and sure... its kind of... WTF 50cm to the enemy and NO DAMAGE????
But if I get one killed with air stomp.... it feals great xD.

The game just gives you more options to succeed apart from just autofiring your automated machine gun.
If you don't wanna use these options or if your just to lazy to put some effort in it, so it'll be more effective... go on with your gun. ;)

I love to stealth kill the enemy and now try to get some experience with air stomp. Even if my stats are going to hell ^^

Removing air stomp as a perk but make it a "normal" function, would make it kind of a lame. Like "oh my autofiring dind't work. Well... before I get killed I'll try air stomp!" -,-

I agree! Air stomp should be an ability generally available. I like that ability, too bad i have to choose it over other more important perks.. :(

Bump for great justice. Waste of a perk slot unless it gets a buff.

I think it would be best if Air Stomp could be dumped into a fourth perk category which contains perks that feel completely "optional" compared to others. Air Stomp, Threat Tracer, Detonation Delay are all good candidates because who in their right mind would take any of those over perks like Energy Transfer and Weapon Pro? You would get points to spend in this fourth perk category for hitting certain ranks with all of your suit abilities. IE getting to rank 3 with Armor, Power, and Stealth awards you a point to spend in this category. Hitting rank 5 with each of those awards you another point, and so on.

I voted a week or so ago that I agree, but now I disagree.

The Air Stomp should be a special treat for those who sacrifice a bit of combat effectiveness(Useful armour perk) to be able to do it. You don't see it all that often which makes it rare and more satisfying to pull off.

Disagreed... It is EXTREMELY hard to kill someone with it... And also you behave like a drunk retard after using it and everyone can kill you....

What, are you actually saying it is useful??? It takes you about 5 seconds to stand up from it. By that time you would have almost certainly been killed.

Its called using it in the right time and right place, not just pulling off an air stromp every time you think someone might be below you.

Just because you don't know how to use something efffectively, doesn't mean everyone automatically shares your inability.

I like the Air Stomp ~ fair enough, I get little to no kills with it - but it's cool. Keep it in, if you don't like it - don't use it.

To me making air stomp a non-perk wouldn't make a lot of difference. Why? Most of the time that I get an opportunity to get a kill with it feels safer to just go down in cloak, get a melee kill after switching to armor, switch back to cloak and keep moving. So far I had little change to my K/DR (4.91) whenever I use it. Therefore, I find it unnecessary for me to take a vote... but it's still fun to use air stomp the way it is.
