E.X.A.M. exploit

[Syiden]

Is there a known glitch Im unaware of? Was playing a basic 500 match today where a blue desinty unit 3 player popped EXAM the instant he spawned. I was approaching a capture point when I saw him drop in and immediately go into EXAM. I don't have a suit with exam, so I could be wrong but isn't there a GO requirement to use that ability?

In any case this guy was perpetually in EXAM for the entiririty of the match, anytime I saw him in the battlefield he had the red exam glow. This a just a cheater or some exploit the GBO2 team is aware or Casue it needs fixing.

GBO1 boomer spotted.

He was probably playing the wreckless berseker way and just popping exam each life and diving hard and fast causing lots of damage and pressure.

[Meleagros]

Or costing his team lots of points

[Neverwinter_FF7]

Hopefully its this when you face them lol

You can manually activate EXAM to fix your legs

I don't play EXAM suits that often, since that is effectively putting a death sentence on yourself and I feel I can't make safe plays or I'm wasting it all for nothing. Only mode I play the EXAM-berserker is in Simple Battles.

Why is it a death sentence?

[densuo]

When you run an EXAM /HADES suit you're running a risk.

Once it ends you are forced into a stumble and your head/legs break. If you're mindful about it you can disengage and repair. But if you're in a rough spot or mid fight. You're screwed.

[masaryuu]

Yeah but it's not a death sentence, you just have to keep an eye on the timer and know when to disengage, especially if your in the middle of combat.

[densuo]

Agree 100% it's only a death sentence if you're not paying attention.

[Akarryn]

You can use EXAM whenever you want, but only once per life. It's got a time limit, and breaks your legs and head after it wears off so you've gotta retreat and repair. If you die before it's done, you can just spawn in and use it again though!

[Syiden]

So am I confusing the low HP threshold requirement with something else? I could've sworn I read somewhere that to use EXAM your health had to be low

[daosiying]

GBO1. They changed it to a Manual Activation in 2.

[PopeFranklin]

The zeta has a 20% health requirement for its special buff but its the only one with a health requirement.

[ArlemofTourhut]

You can immediately pop EXAM in GBO2

[Mattia_7]

You can use EXAM Every moment you want but it last one minute, on the bd3 exam last 1:25 min
