no problem, it's called eye ra. summon the vega directly on top of you, and BAM.
/bow
anything else I can do for ya?
and don't act like its hard 2 kill vegabonds they're beyond easy 2 kill lol. the ONLY time they have a 1 up on ppl is when they're camping just watching an open area, waiting 2 pick someone off. if they actually come at you, well
1 you can see them on your radar, even when they got invis, they show up on it for like 3 seconds.
2 vega can only teleport 2 where they are directly looking. it's really just a matter of seeing where they were looking, turning around or whatever and just shooting that spot.
3 everytime vega comes in or out of stealth it makes a distinct noise.
combine those 3 things and it's not an issue. I don't even normally switch 2 athena 2 take vegas out cause they're so damn easy 2 begin with Lol. like I said, use your radar, and watch where they were looking and you'll kill them with no problem.

Ah yes, because it is going to pick up the vagabond, the vagabond won't find you before this happens, and it won't teleport away as you summon it.
Eye ra's ultimate isn't always an easy kill.
That's the problem. They show up where they are last seen. For three seconds, and there is a delay when they are within your line of sight.
Not as easy as you make it. The exact location is never easy to spot considering they could hit the ground and stop or stop in mid air.
And? If I already know they are in the vicinity that isn't any help to me.
I'd love to see that considering multiple regulars were preoccupied with one who had a 70-10 KDR going.
Lol I don't care if it trys and teleports away, I always do it in smaller rooms so spidermans and vegas can't take off on me. eya ra pretty much always is an easy kill unless you summon a shadow hunter.
everything I said in there is the keys 2 taken them out, and yes it is as easy as I make it sound, you just need 2 practice more
if there was multiple regulars and they couldn't take out an vega then that's funny. also sad cause I can't play very much right now...
ill kill a vega with a human if you want, or any race, it's not hard. just cause you find it hard and other ppl who arn't very skilled at CSS(not you) in general, doesn't mean it needs 2 be nerfed or is out of line.
as I said originally, get better at the game. vegas can't even shoot when in stealth lol, and if you hit them once the blood stain shows even when they're stealthed they're beyond easy. if you have a hard time dealing with them, then either practice or pick a race that will pwwn them easy.

First off, Eye Ra + Necklace = lol. Paying attention if you're summing a shadow hunter so you can buy immunity, better.
Mainly, the best way I have found to kill Vagabonds is simply, buy a necklace, stay out of the wide open areas... AKA: how you deal with snipers in general.
Also, you say them having necklace like it's only a good thing for them. Vaga + necklace = huntable. Any character with an activating ultimate is now a Vaga radar. And if they choose to buy a necklace themselves when they see they no longer can activate(well other than crazy ulti ranged Athena), they are located and stuck.
Mainly, know your enemy, learn to counter what they have however you can. And when in doubt, as Maynard said, Shadow hunter counters almost everything. So does Necklace.
Oh, and to be thorough, I hate vagabonds, and wouldn't shed a single tear if they disappeared, but that's because of other reasons, not because they are hard to kill or OP.
Hey I'm not trying to start a war or nothing I'm just merely suggesting this cause I know that is why we get a lot of new players and then they bounce right away. Also I will be adding about 15 races for suggestions and if zero decides to put those in we will have a lot more races to choose from.
Some people are like slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when you push em down the stairs.
we have more races coming in regardless within a month or 2. and we get a lot of new players cause the game we're playing is CSS... a lot of ppl don't constantly play CSS they play for a while, move on 2 another game and come back eventually. and seeing how the server is full quite often, I don't really think it's an issue.
when you first join a WCS server.. it sucks... and is confusing.. this goes for every WCS sever. you gotta figure out the races on the server, there sounds and animations. if noobs join and leave after 20 mins cause they think it's 2 hard, then 2 hell with them Lol, we're not having a shortage of ppl playing on WCS, so who cares.
