Title: Saving someone from a bloodsucker...or not.
Post by: swacko on 19-10-2009
Scenario: You see another character getting attacked by a bloodsucker(sucker standing over a stalker, lifting him up, etc...).
With this thread I want to find out what most people would do if this ever happens to them, and improve my own roleplay.
Different factors and alternatives are included
Factors that can affect your decision, based on the other character(add your own if you want)
Factors: The character is a friend.
             The character is an ally.
             The character is an enemy.
             The character is indifferent to you.
             The character is someone you want to be friends with(High faction ranked member, etc.).

Alternatives(Add your own if you want):
-You try to sneak up on the sucker, RP'ing pointing your gun at his head from point blank(sucker and rescuer decide what to do from here).

-You get away fast as f***. You dont want to risk your life for this person.

-You agree with the sucker to fire at it from afar(common sense: you might hit the one you want to rescue)

-You rescue the character from the sucker, only to kill him/her yourself(total spaz, or rival faction/character.)

-You rescue the character, demanding a reward after the sucker is gone. If you don't get one, you kidnap or kill the character.

These are the options I have found most sensible to use.
Please explain factors if answering.

I once tackled a sucker when it was holding a guy in the air by his neck.  as reference, my character holds grudges agaisnt suckers for killing his friends and dooming him to a life in the zone. He was a Sucker hunter before joining Freedom.

When I tried to help someone being attacked by a sucker, considering my guy was a rookie, I got me and the suckers victim killed. Moral of the story" Only help when you have a upper hand on the sucker".

It seems there are people that actually tackle suckers...bad plan if you ask me o_O
anyhoo, what I usually do is sneak up on them, and RP'ing pointing my ak near-point blank at their head...ooc discussion follows...usually with the following: I get a couple of shots fired, I save the character, sucker usually dont come back for a while...If they do, they are wounded and higher propability for me killing them..my sucker killcount with this method is 3...and I make friends too IC!
Of course...this all depends on who is attacked...mostly by what uniform they are wearing *cough cough*.
Last time I did'nt get to RP killing it, I was dropkicked into a tree...awesome by the way, recommended for every sucker to try!

well, on my evan aleksi character, i was looking for people to recruit into Renegade, and i saw a merc being attacked by a sucker at the tall end of the ravine in s2. Well he snuck up on it and tryed to knife it in the back, and he got pushed down into the ravin, and before he fell managed to grab the sucker's ankle and drag him down with me. and the sucker kept his hand on t he merc, and it ended up being a drag train. well it ended up me getting eaten by the merc who was a peusdo sucker (if thats how its spelled) and a controller joining into the fight.

Well in the books there is stated almost in every character.

1. "Being stalker means that you are a human! Share everything and save fellow stalkers even if you don't like them."

2. "Stalker always will help other stalker" (Not Faction memmbers.)

Yeah not the wisest move trying to tackle a seven foot monster made of solid muscle with  razor sharp claws.

Well threw out my time on HGN most common thing is I see is that they just point the gun from about 5 or 10 feet and aim at me I usally run or I keep attacking until I get shot.

PTW from bloodsuckers are quite common I guess...I mean they are hard to kill but not invincible like some seem to think.

You guys are stalkers, not dreadnaughting veteran loners. of course you're going to lose.

Well YOU walking alone and getting attacked mean YOU dying

Post by: swacko on 28-10-2009
When I am alone and I get attacked I usually just get wounded, and damage sucker as much that it retreats...I hate when people says that it's certain death to get attacked while alone, because I haven't experienced that...

You know that it's invisible? You have no idea that it's there? It's about one hundred pounds heavier? It sinks it claws into you as it drops onto you with its weight? You can't even raise your assault rifle because of the fact it's already too close?

I agree with Grif.

'TIEM 2 DYE FAEGOT'

'OMG U SHOOTED ME NUB!'

'SHIT SORRY'

Razor looks, bewildered by the two morons.

/me rembers his history.

Takes me back to the time my char used to get into hand to hand combat against razor (Play fighting), that was fun because my char used to gain a trust for razor since he wasent violent, but the truth is, color=#ff0000]You see a sucker, you run![/color]

Suckers leap from tree to tree to catch there pray, there reactions are faster then a human and they can cloak.
A normal stalker stands no chance.

Post by: Alex on 28-11-2009
Not every Stalker is normal though. Some know different styles of hand-to-hand or close ranged combat that may not give them the upper hand, but would increase their chance of survival. Granted, suckers are fast and powerful creatures, it doesn't mean they automatically win.  The whole cloaking thing is all well and good, but they must uncloak before attacking, and even the dumbest of loners could react to that.(If they weren't behind them of course...)

By the way suckers used to be humans, they don't have titanium-like bones even if they may have thickened a bit. So if they get shot in the head, they have just as much of a chance of dieing as a human. If they were shot in the heart or some other major organ, they would most likely die, just like a human. Masses of muscle do nothing to protect their body, except of course for the ripping stalker's heads off part. Now, someone please put me back in my place by making me look like an unintelligent douschebag.
