Separates the hunters from the... Failures? (Not really though, these are getting hard. Just wait for the next category, I'll have trouble making videos for them)
Single Wall Techs
These are really good to know, not absolutely necessary. Don't feel bad if you can't do them. I'm a good hunter, and I can still fail these up on occasion. Good luck.
Single Wall - Vertical: This, to be honest, is not my favourite tech. There is another vertical tech that I will discuss in a moment that I think is way better than this. In fact, I can't even do this. I'll have to give it a good shot for videos, lets hope I succeed. Anyways, basically what you're doing here is scaling a single wall by pouncing off of it. Here's what to do.
- Starting from the ground, pounce onto the wall.
- Looking up at a roughly 50 degree angle, look away from the wall (right or left) until the reticle is about an inch from the wall
- You may have to fiddle with angles of looking away from the wall, figure out what's best with you.
- Once you manage to pounce off that wall, use the jump curving method to curve your self back into the wall. (To do this effectively, use your mouse to help curve)
- Once you hit the wall again, flip your mouse over to face the direction that you were just in, and do the same thing.
- If you're aiming at an upward angle, you should be moving up each pounce.
- If you continue with that process, you will reach the top of the building (unless you run into something).
I'm sorry if that wasn't clear enough. This is a very difficult tech, as you need to know how to wall pounce, need to know comfortable angles, and need to be fast with the mouse and effective to pounce off instead of just falling to your demise (as I usually do). If you can master this tech fully, then not only would I like to meet you, but you could quickly scale walls to get to the roof of tall buildings and pull off very fast damage pounces.
Single Wall - 100% Vertical: Hooray, here's my favourite vertical. This is absolutely 100% vertical, so you can do it between fire escapes and air conditioning units. It's difficult at the beginning, but it's quite easy once you get the hang of it. Some people I've seen have been able to get it first try, maybe you're one of them. To do it:
- Start by crouching where the wall meets the floor.
- Put your back to the wall, and look directly upwards, as upwards as it'll let you.
- Pounce up
- Aim your reticle about an inch down from the wall
- Release crouch (makes it a bit easier on the strafe)
- Hold S (or your default down key)
- Once you get this in a loop two or three times, just leave everything and spam the pounce.
- What this does, is when you pounce up, aim down and pounce again, you pounce very slightly off the wall. By holding S, it's strafing your character back onto the wall, allowing you to pounce off again. The hunter does this fast enough that you can actually scale full walls quite fast.
