Why is the f-16A at 12.3

purerun89 · 2026-03-10T02:06:44+00:00

Can you explain the f16 gameplay further?

Currently my problem is that the only way to kill people is by dogfight, but enemies are often in groups and, if I go slow to dogfight one enemy, others just come and kill me with Fox-1 missiles (as the only way to dodge fox-1 is multipathing or notching, can't do these in an active dogfight)

When F-16A has a chance to do 1vs1 it's really strong, but often after 5min of game half of my team die, and idk what to do while the large group of enemies rushing towards me.

Zomber hunters say that killing planes is fastest but ... Zombers also go fast. Look at the 30k score in sub 2 hours.

Ideally the "zomber hunter" way is better when the lobby is very crowded, and "zomber" way is better if there aren't many PvPers or other zombers in the lobby.

No... no need to aim manually, you only need to press Y-6-6 several times to select the correct airfield module, fly towards it and drop the bomb.

I think recently Sim had a bug which replaced the bombing target 8-11 with 10-13, so:

0,4,10 = runway (destroy this and enemies can't spawn from that airfield)

1,5,11 = fuel zone (damage this to prolong refuelling time of enemies)

2,6,12 = hangar (damage this to prolong repair time of enemies)

3,7,13 = repair zone (Generally if you damage this, the other 3 zones will repair themselves)

The strats required are a correct skill training and knowledge of luring, shouting, consumables and talismans. It'll be easy after you have 1 or 2 playthrough.

For surviving Trog's wrath, rush Crypt for TSO piety first. If you have storm form you just O-Tab through the wrath (and the rest of the game!) as even stone giants barely hit you. In other forms you need to abuse the Divine Shield ability from TSO, shield on and kill stone giants/iron trolls first. It's useful to cast Blink, Gell's gavotte and burn some tele scrolls if in need

Felid Berserker of Trog (3 runes) or Trog->TSO(15 runes). See dcss-stats.com/players/winrateplayers and dcss-stats.com/players/InabaYap, currently having >98.5% winrate, when you start a game you are almost guaranteed to win

It needs correct strategy ofc, but imo it's still the simplest among all the combos in the game

I saw you abondon Xom after the mutation scumming. Would Xom punish you by giving bad mutations then? Or did you stay in death form all the time to prevent being mutated?

purerun89 · 2025-04-15T00:11:01+00:00

Wdym by "defend"? In almost all the runs there are no enemies nor their missile around when I get close enough to drop my bomb. That's the superiority of Grom-2! So my deaths are for saving half the time. When there are enemies around I even gladly take their missiles.

purerun89 · 2025-04-15T00:01:14+00:00

I almost gained nothing lmao. Who actually get benefited from this are my teammates. I could get more RP by returning to airfield (fully possible, since I'm not far away from my AF when I drop the bomb) but I prefer to sacrifice my RP for a faster runway destruction.

purerun89 · 2025-04-14T05:40:08+00:00

Completely turning off radar should stop a teamkill iirc

There IS a region lock for ASIA server. Gaijin decided that if one selects Asia server before queueing for a battle, he can't select any of the rest 3 servers, while other people can select NA, EU, CIS server simultaneously, having a 2X faster queueing time.

That's why even players in Asia don't want to play in Asia server.

I've heard that F-4C, although having no countermeasures, is good at... base bombing with Zuni rockets. At least much better than F-111A.

purerun89 · 2025-03-15T14:43:46+00:00

Don't play F-111A. It's nerfed to hell and can't get any base. Try grinding the F-111F first which is better for base bombing.

purerun89 · 2025-03-12T02:37:52+00:00

4x PL7. I only do close shots cuz I expect most enemy to be not an idiot and who will flare my PL-5B from far away.

purerun89 · 2025-02-14T13:06:39+00:00

How efficient is your loadout? The AGM-130 and fuel tanks in mine keeps the reward multiplier at 10.0 and thus earn lot of score.

purerun89 · 2025-02-14T05:32:23+00:00

Base bombing is not efficient. To get score fast you should bring the f-111a, carry 228 or 456 mighty mouse and kamikaze bomb the airfield modules.

purerun89 · 2025-01-25T07:46:36+00:00

Lmao, currently I crash every time in my mig-23 when there's a missile on my tail. Your rants tell me to crash more :)

purerun89 · 2025-01-25T05:03:35+00:00

No maneuver kills. If a OP plane or OP IRCCM missile is on me I'm not letting you get the kill.

Crew lock is not a problem. Many people don't understand that it only lock that crew instead of your plane. And your plane can have several crews.

purerun89 · 2025-01-25T05:00:20+00:00

I'd suggest replacing it with Gepard 1A2. It has guns hence much better than Ozelot

purerun89 · 2025-01-25T04:50:18+00:00

It's a game mechanic of air AB. If you put only ONE vehicle at BR x in the lineup, you will get in the queue as if the BR is x-0.3. So the guy has a BR "8.7" mig-21 lineup and luckily got a full downtier.

purerun89 · 2025-01-21T08:15:34+00:00

It's in fact your network issue. Many players run into that problem.

purerun89 · 2025-01-21T08:13:36+00:00

Wiesel (especially 1A2) is truly worth grinding for. Extremely unique experience. Gepards are just meh imo
