The Oracle: Ask Lyra A Question !

This topic is simple!


Ask me a simple question about 2142 and recieve an answer in 24 or less hours !




Because A lot of guys are shy here I will start out asking myself a question:


Q: Dear Lyra, can you give me any tips on how to improve my K/D ?


A: A simple thing many people forget is to take cover. There are lots of boxes in the game that have about the right hight to shoot over but also crouch back quickly behind them.

Use those boxes to take cover and lure the enemy into trying to shoot you. Then pop up quickly and hit them while they pause their fire or fired long enough to make their shots inaccurate.

Re: The Oracle: Ask Lyra A Question !

Dear Grandpa Lyra. Is it true that you scream like a girl if i throw EMP-Nades at you?
( srsly.. is that a good way to put you out of a location? like if i want to pass the road and your are covering it? So i just throw nades in your way and you start to run away? )

When a Walker crew is REALLY good and has the support from their team there is basically no way to really kill them. In the most skilled game 2 Walkers will just stay alive endlessly and slap at each other from a far while always retreating when taking a dent.


That being said EMP Grenades are the best Counter vs a Walker. If you throw them from a far I will usually run away because I know a competent EMPer is around. If I am EMP locked I yell at the Squad as hard as I can


Once in a Scrim me and Darksteel also bumrushed an enemy Walker with a Buggy on Tunis. Support and Recon - we drove around and Darksteel tossed 2 EMP grenades at it from under its feet while I planted RDX on it. Couldnt believe that worked but was awesome!

Re: The Oracle: Ask Lyra A Question !

Dear Lyra,

It may just be me, but sometimes when EMP locking a threat, I get autoswitched to my turret or frags, is there anyway to circumvent this?

Dear Uncle Lyra,

Is it true that if you chant "Bloody Mary" three times, she will rise from the toliet in the barracks?

Dear Uncle Lyra,
Is it true that the Lambert has less spread than the Voss?

You might sound sarcastic my friend! .. or you might not

When you stand on a pedestal you often feel not much different.

He should polish it to a mirror shine again

Do you have unlocked the 3rd Grenade Unlock yet? It will make you reload your EMP Grenades just a tad faster to close the gap. If you still get switched to Sentry try throwing a little slower.

No, but if you say dirty words 3 times in global chat you might be banned

The spreads while standing might be about same - the odds a bit to the Lambert I believe. But the spread of the Lambert while moving and strafing around is far far smaller than the VOSS one.

Dear Santa... I mean Mr. Lyramion,

Why are people voting this thread at two stars?

Tell me about the Krylov and how it is the joy of the PAC soldier!

I honestly don´t know. Maybe they think I am arrogant for making this topic.



And yes the Krylov mathematicallly is the best 1v1 Assault Rifle there is in damage output and deviation. I love it and it feels great. Your personal experiences might differ so don´t yell at me.

Re: The Oracle: Ask Lyra A Question !

Dear Techno-Ravemaster Lyra,

Is there a secret to gaining PAC walker functionality back after the laser beams or rockets seem to be bugged and no longer hit/track?

Yeah there actually is. The bugged beams and rockets usually occur when your Walker has been EMPd.


To get them working again I usually spin my turrent around 720° quickly. I do not know how but it somehow seems to "recalibrate" the weapons again so they do damage.
