AGENT HUNK’S Guide to Mastermind tactics!

I created this guide so people could be aware of the strategic uses of having pets and being a Mastermind. These tactics refer to PvE and PvP gaming, some work in both, others don’t. These are mostly in Step-by-Step form. I might add some comments as well.

Ghost Kills
Works for all pets
Requires:
Grant Invisibility, Stealth or Invisibility

1. Summon pets
2. Upgrade pets
3. Acquire target
4. Invis- all pets and yourself
5. Have pets surround enemy while invis-
6. Have pets attack using “attack my target” command
7. Watch as enemy is pummeled/shot/burned by your pets.

This tactic works very well in PvP. Also when coupled with a stalker you can have great results.


Door Trap
Works for all pets
Requires:
Caltrops or Tar-pit

This tactic is best used in mayhem missions when pesky LB follow you into the bank.

1. Run in bank, back away from door
2. Summon pets quickly “don’t upgrade them…yet”
3. Place caltrops or tar-pit in front of door
4. Arrange pets in back of the tar-pit or caltrops in a semicircle
5. Steps 1-5 if done well should be completed in 10-20 seconds
6. Upgrade the pets “by now the LB should have entered the bank”
7. Tell pets to attack the strongest enemy “keep upgrading them”
8. The LB should be slowed considerably by the trap
9. Now watch them try to run away…but you know they can’t

This tactic can also be used in hallways and just pull. Works really well if you have a corruptor on your team with “rain of fire”


Enemy Capture
Works for all pets
Requires:
Capture/net power (“web grenade”, etc.)

Issue 8 caused many problems for the MM. The new programming made many enemies decide to run away when the going gets tough. By them running they usually run through another group and then the pets agro another group. This tactic counters that. This tactic is hard to list so ill just describe. Ill describe it as a lieutenant by itself. After your pets are all summoned and upgraded, look at the target you have spotted. Now use this little bonus.

1. Hold control and click on your holding power “web grenade”
2. You should now see a green circle around it
3. Now when the power is recharged it will automatically activate

Now have your pets attack this lieutenant. Approach him/her and just keep using the capture power. By doing this the enemy won’t be able to run away.


Bomb Voyage!
Works for all pets
Works best with Robots and Zombies
Requires:
Detonator and Grant Invisibility

Imagine setting off a bomb in the middle of a group of enemies; however they notice it and run away or try to kill the person with it. Now imagine a completely invisible person with a bomb who walks into a crowd of hostiles. No one notices anything then BOOM. This is pretty much the effect of this tactic.

1. Attach bomb to strongest pet “Assault Bot” “Commando” ext
2. Then invis- them
3. Use “goto” and have the pet walk in the middle of a group of enemies.
4. Then set it
5. BOOM

That’s it LOL, works well with destroying an MM’s pets in PvP as well.


BOOM Safety
Works for all pets
Requires:
Nothing special

This tactic is used when you are facing an enemy with an AoE attack such as grenades or fire bombs. Just make sure your pets are spread out so all of them don’t get hit by the attack. Simple but a lot of people just don’t do it.


Fire Slick
Works for all pets
Requires:
Oil Slick Arrow power and someone with any fire power (“includes Oni”)

Works just like the Door Trap but causes a lot more damage. Ill just start with step 3 from the Door Trap tactic.

3. Place Oil Slick arrow in front of door
4. Arrange pets around the back of it in a semicircle
5. When hostiles enter have person with fire power ignite the oil slick

Muahahaha soooo cool! Watch them burn!



Well I’ll add more when I have some more time and ideas, if you have any cool tactics send me a tell @agenthunk “my global name” or post it in a comment. Ill be sure to give you the credit you deserve. These are also just varied tactics for MMs; ill have ones that work particularly for each set of pets soon.

Any comments?

Sorry, but pets don't listen to you when you're invisible.

  Stalker of the Seas on 11/02/06 18:52

I guess i should have mentioned this but pets WILL listen to you if you are in Stealth, but the WILL NOT listen to you when invisible, however you dont need to go invisible until after you have set your pets to attck target.

His Ideas do work and are not all that bad since even though invis you can still lead them into a group and being as the pets will be in defensive they will auto attack.
