Peter5930:
Thanks; it works great.  I've always just used the numberpad for movement, with num5 being my wait key, and I'd never used the run command before.  I set the wait period to 2000, and now enemies automagically appear when I use it.

Klear:
As long as you're not speedrunning and there are no nukes/flowing lava around, you can wait for a long long time in a minute.

Thanks =)

These guys I just run diagonally at until I reach melee range, they're only a little more dangerous than former humans, since they miss a lot because of dodge. Also you can walk out until they see you and shoot at you, then you can retreat behind a wall or pillar and wait for them to come to you. Chances are you'll dodge the first fireball, then you'll only take a hit or maybe two while you cut them up.

You should learn how dodge works, how to always move out of the line of fire with every move. Sometimes this means making lateral moves that don't bring you closer, but still mean you don't get hit as much. Once you do this then tactical boots/armor become much more valuable.

I don't think damage is halved anymore. Whenever I play AoB, run mode is key to getting me through Hell's Arena, I die too much without it. The accuracy hit is more than balanced out by the dodge bonus.

I should give running a try again, maybe it will enable me to at last beat AoB UV. I tend to stop running whenever I need to attack, whether I'm using melee or ranged  weapons (hell, even if I'm using shotgun, that's a pretty annoying bad habit...)

Scout + Hellrunner 3 + Dodgemaster + Finesse 2 + WK2 + Tac Armor (A) + Tac Boots (A) + Running = NEED FOR SPEED PHOBOS

I think you could probably make yourself faster with modded boots/armor but probably not dodgier. I wonder if it is possible to become so fast, you wouldn't *need* to dodge.

"Are you saying I can dodge plasma volleys?"
"No. I'm saying when you're ready, you won't have to."
