Now I don't claim to be the best escort pilot or anything but this is what I use and it works "pretty ok" for pvp.

I don't see your iWin button anywhere. Did you hide that in the screenshots?

No, but srsly. I haven't gone against you in a while so I'm not sure how you use your Repulsors. Are you using them for damage or to separate people? Personally I'd think they'd be counterproductive to any Cannon builds, but I r n00b with Escorts.

Also, do you have RCS consoles slotted because they're actually helping that much, or because you're hoping from support from your teammates to make up for a lack of armor/defense when pugging?

I win button, no but I got that noobcruiser era on stick does that count?

Ugh in pugs I use it abit how I want but for premade its supposed to be used for either dmg if hes really low or to push healers targets or to save ERA........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=gZ-pGaCCx_A#t=436s like in this situation.

Also, do you have RCS consoles slotted because they're actually helping that much, or because you're hoping from support from your teammates to make up for a lack of armor/defense when pugging? No im just being greedy and I have armors in inventory if I wanna slot them. +18% alldmg/kinetic resist.

save ERA

Save Era? Does not compute.

Since when does Era need saving? :p

Also, I noticed that you have one of those EPtX CD reduction DOffs... why? Your 2 EPtS will cycle perfectly. Or is it for when you get SNB'd?

Honestly I dont know what else to put in, alltho there is supposed to be able to dubble stack epts if you get a cooldown reduction on one of the cycles, (not confirmed by me yet tho).

Frankly if you face a premade of any sort that is co-ordinated even Emperor Era himself needs some help.

Torp or Evasive CD reduction might help? Or go get that shiny SNB DOff.

Emperor Era... I like that :p I ended up in a pug with him and 3 randos today. Him and his new toy Oddy blew away everyone's DPS and healing scores lol. Next highest damage was me, and Era had more than me and the next guy combined :p

Good stuff, I've always thought escort builds should be pretty straight forward.

i think he uses repulsor to hold onto and keep people in his front arc while moving at top speed, so he doesnt have to slow his speed and lower his defense rating and die instantly. gotta activate it when they are directly in front tho.

i see you have maxed out phaser/projectile weapon Spec. I think as a tac they are lovely in writing. But how do you measure what each level of it gives you? Since ive found no way to do this, nor do i see any higher levels of crits since maxing them out, i specced them out until a developer can show us ways to see how ceertain skills improve, and so far ive found no way for this one.

Emperor Era is worthless without his Royal Executioner Aytanhi at his side! :(

Im a nub!, didnt think of doing this. I've used them defensively like pushing away from me and for CC in STFs but not with this in mind, considering I almost always fly an escort I will try this today after work.

Is it difficult to keep target in the arc as the replusor direction can be a bit random, or does it just take a good "pilot" :p

Correct. Altering the game files is not something allowed to be discussed or shared. It's awesome there are so many people changing the client to fit their use, but it's not something that Cryptic nor PWE endorses or supports and as such can't be on the forums :(

Sorry folks.
