WARNING!

Some of these may cause false bug reports!
A few folks I've grappled have made chat comments like "&#($en bug!! I almost had the flag, but something stupid happened and I lost all my speed!"

just tried out some of these...so much fun! I actually managed (luck?) to snag a capper in midair and held him for 1.5 sec .my teammate then finished him off...also tried the assault ship counter :) ..couldn't get burner out in time but it was fun to try.....i like the longer reach but the sh1t breaks too easily. I never cared enough to use it but now that I have my ELF back (albeit requiring skill now) it's not bad --added it to my Bastard loadout

Heehee... I'm seeing more and more people out trying this stuff. I wound up going against some guys that were doing the Pod swing thing. They made a good team and really caused some good ol fashion mayhem.

Y'know.

There really is nothing like grabbing the flag on Isle, grappling the enemy pod which is spamming you, then having an enemy LD accidentally miss you and snipe the pod pilot.

Jet and reel-in to build some speed, and off I went before the rest of the LD ate me alive :D

I saw a couple guys doing this on cavern:

One flies a pod around
The other gets repair pack, burner, disc, and grapple. He grapples the pod and swings around on it, using the repair pack to keep it alive and raping with the burner (no energy problems since you're just grappled) and disc.

It was working absurdly well.

What have I done??

Very odd to notice that since this thread has been up, the number of people preforming stupid grappler tricks has increased ALOT! Some folks are really making 'em work well too!

Me 'n my big mouth! Shoulda kept it shut! :p

Wow, what jotun listed is an extremely sick combo. Combine hard to hit pod with hard to hit grappler swinging around+burner and repair pack for any damage it takes...that's really sick.

The imagery this brought me made me laugh out loud with glee.

Yes, glee.
