Maybe they should introduce a feature where rich pros could "make it rain" with credits.

I like it when someone says no heal, then I heal, use 2 health boosters, stall and then heal again.

to answer the topic question, the better player is the better player. Can't really tell from the example,,

I used to refuse to use boosters too, it always felt cheap. you put all the time an effort into your build, picking the skills you want and allocating stat points,
then the opponent just uses an energy booster and negates it all. obviously I use them now and do not disapprove of others using them, but I also fully
understand if someone refuses to use them. I would make boosters NPC only if I was the head honcho in charge over here.

Like Pivotal, I only boost during NPC battles (because they're relatively needed). But in 1v1, I refuse to boost, even if it loses for me. First of all, it's not worth it. Second of all, it's just annoying and in my opinion, insulting to your opponent, saying "Oh Hey, instead of admitting you beat me fair and square, I think I'll boost my health up by 25 once or twice, and win!). Although I totally understand why people boost, personally I don't like it.

@Joe: I use them in all formats, I just don't support them being available in 1v1, 2v2 or Jug.

I for one dont like boosters... not at all. I never uses it, only have when I went for daily 2vs2 (and boss NPC's). Having the opportunity to get 50 extra hp... nah, I dont like it at all...and the sad part is that many does use it :( Yet I see why some uses it. They want a "perfect win record", while I only battle to look active and get credits, lol.

I don't use boosters, I dislike them. But I do carry 2 just in case. If they boost I boost. If they energy boost they get emped :). God it's fun trolling. Also I don't use them because if I one use I forget to replace them Xd

Exactly. If they boost, I boost. If my static charge gets blocked, I boost.

I only use energy boosters though.


And that is IF I remember to put them on in battle....

Boosters are here for 2 things, more battle options, and prolonging battles OR giving an advantage over the enemy.

^^^ 3 things.
Even though you said or it's another possibility and even though you said and in the beginning to link the first two they are still different.

Edit to Reply to Void: Lol Depressed..AWESOME

Boosting is alright I guess but I always forget to put them on in a battle!!!!
So annoying!

Maybe we could have a warning message before battle telling you that you haven't equipped your boosters, and you can opt in or out of the message.

3 things and a many number of minorities. 'v'

Just like how speaking English in ED makes me feel like a minority. 'v'

BUT! All the better for me to practice being a Hipster.

If Player B had boosters but didn't boost, then Player A is better.
If Player B had forgot to equip his boosters, then Player A is better.

Overall, Player A is better, but if Player B had boosted, he might have won.
Player A = Smarter.
Player B = More "pro".

Real-Battle Situation:

I battled a Level 34 Full-Varium Tactical Mercenary today, on my Level 31 (during Power Hour). I won, because I boosted when he had just Raged. I then raged, to finish him and earn 128? Credits at the cost of 28. Does this make me a "n00b"?

Two level 34s, full Varium. Bounty Hunter vs. Merc.

No crits, no blocks, no deflects.


Wait a minute, then in that case, if Player B got first Strike wouldn't that make Player A the better player?

@Liy010: Nice point there, I would offer a scenario to this example.

We got two lvl 34 Bms with exact stats with same skill tree. The one who deals more damage first would be the winner, no crits, no deflects, no stun, no advantages, just pure damage, if they use the same strategy, the player who got the first turn would have advantage since he will have the time to kill his foe before he gets killed.

@On topic: What if you use a booster if you critted or your gun and aux deflected? Would it be fair? Answer me that.

They are equal.
Why? Because there is no characteristic mentioned in the scenario that distinguishes them from each other.

 I would say player A is the better player because player B chose not to take advantage of boosters and lost because of this. If B had boosters and won he would be the better player.

I also used to think that using boosters was cheap/meant you've been outplayed/etc. and got pissed off when people used them to win but one day when I went for daily 2v2 champ I decided I would use them just for the day to have a higher chance of winning but I did really well and decided to keep using them because of the amount of players I had been playing against before that had been using boosters.

@frogbones
ah!
I was NOT surprised this topic was started by you xD
I completely understand you because I am seriously against boosting...but in reality, they are there for a reason and if you lose...you lose. Sorry, can't help it. :/
So with respect...make a long lasting build like me with my epic 5 focus agressive dex builds or just become one of them (do Not, I like your spirit so don't change that)

I don't boost in 1v1, I use my remaining energy for heal instead and if that doesn't work, goodbye me xD I only use boosters in 2v2 and it's always a rare chance I use them lol...

Player A =>Has better build and outsmarted enemy
Player B =>Has stronger brute force but less options to turn tables

So that's how they are "better" from one another.
