help please?
« on: July 15, 2010, 01:29:36 PM »
OK, took about a week vacation from AH, and my gunnery skill dropped to the point of irrelevancy. I can't get it back up to par, any tips besides shooting the offline drones?

Its just a guess but try this: make a concerted effort to shoot all over, around, and under your target.  The brains will more quickly "dial in" that way.

close your eyes and say 'boom'!

no seriously, visualize the shot in your mind before you take it, start thinking one step ahead, be like... ok I'm gonna reverse and hes going to pull up here, and i'm gonna take the shot, don't react, you'll react to late.

Drink alcohol or maybe some medication that has. Warning regarding heavy machinery.  Then accuracy won't really matter and the level of happyness increased.

DO you have kids? If so randomly smack them as they walk by. No it won't help your gunnery, but it'll keep the kids in line. :bolt:

TA.

Turn on the LCS and chase somebody around.  That'll give you an idea of where to shoot.  Actually hitting anything is up to you.
