Somehow? That sounds standard to me. Also jokes aside Mira is my favorite defender. There are some spots I know she is pretty useless but anytime plane shows up it's Mira time.

House is about the only place I just can't figure out a fun place to use her mirrors short of on the stairwells. Dual shotguns on that map are fun though. Edit: The office maybe, people forget that poo poo's over there a lot.

Kixstar had some video on the new map where you mira and castle somewhere wierd off point and the attackers pretty much get choked through your medieval kill zone if they come from one direction and if not you can flank around behind them. I think about that alot when I am making GBS threads up the game with my supremely sub optimal mira placements

no but if you see an unreinforced one and they haven't spotted you yet you can throw a smoke on it and usually cheese a kneecap kill on whoever is hiding behind it thinking someone is trying to breach the wall

Put them on unreinforced walls at crouch level.

they double as shields when you do that and will often make op4 plink at it which exposes their position you'll eventually have an ash or zofia gunning for you but its not like you have to hug the wall. if you treat black mirrors like they are expendable and abandon them to disengage to rotate the moment you're getting run over they'll usually sit there taking pot shots at the thing while you get a flanking shot on them. also people hate this but don't be afraid to put them at weird angles and open them up whenever. the audio que tends to get attackers attention and they are really good distractions when you don't need them to anchor.

Hi, it's me, i am the dummy who bought the starter edition. Only ops I outright bought were the Canadians and German task force resulting in a price point comparable to regular edition on sale. I think I unlocked some other buddies via the season 2 pass credits meaning I've spent close to a full retail standard price on the game. But it's so definitely worth it to me, I love this game with 190 hours played since November. Even still I iterate that anyone interested should definitely buy the regular edition!!! Unlocking new ops can be a chore which I personally didn't mind but considering that the renown spent on ops can be spent on cosmetics/lootboxes instead it's a losing deal. Especially since these days regular edition starter characters are all unlocked from the get go. This driveby confessional/PSA post is brought to you by following sponsors:

As for actual thread content: I never play Mira without carrying her sidearm shotgun. It's just so versatile: as both breaching tool as well as capping fools. You can create killzones by reinforcing a section of wall and popping a hole next to it, even without spending mirrors. Mirrors are worth it to create spyholes out of reinforced rooms but not really useful as kill holes themselves. Busting them open takes too long meaning you'll probably miss your chance to shoot someone. Oh, and they're also gone forever after you open them so now you have extra ventilation to your murderbox and soon your dumdum face also.

Double Shotgun is the real fun Mira gimmick, the primary shotgun will even help you at a distance, if you remember that, for some reason, ADS while using a shotgun will extend your range and tighten the spread. It's also why you should never ADS when blasting holes in walls, it takes longer that way. But a lmao2shot build is for people who anchor on point (and therefore not for every point), while the Vector Mira can cover site approaches and entry points better. You will encounter more people on full health, while on point you might encounter more damaged people, which is when shotgun shines. Plus - the primary shotgun has the absolute best victory pose so if you manage to snag the MVP spot while running it you instantly win at life.

I haven’t played in 6 months and wasn’t very good to begin with but I managed to surprise kill 2 people through a wall with Mira’s shotgun yesterday in my first game back and I probably should have signed off and quit then. I’m afraid I’m going to spend the rest of my life chasing that high again.

Even stuff like that can happen pretty consistently if enemy teams move the right way and you position your self appropriately. I've gotten a bunch of surprise wall kills in the last couple months just being in the right place and thinking "hey I bet I could get a good angle if I sledge/breach/shotgun/impact right here"

Gave this a try when I played just now and it seems like a success. Not a lot of people seem to expect mirrors in unreinforced walls which leaves them guessing. With two shotguns it's also really easy to move around the map.

i always just used her pistol as the secondary if i had the primary shotgun because unless you're on a map like House it can be very difficult to close the gap but dual shotguns is one of the funniest things in the game

The quality of life difference between 3 speed and 1 speed and how little 3 armor and 1 armor matters most of the time, this is one of those foundational aspects of the game that Ubi really should figure out how to address.

They need to lower 3sp movespeed by 10% and raise 1sp by the same, which will have the added benefit of letting their netcode cope with the existence of Ash.

Her default outfit is goofy enough, between the jeans, sweater, and pink sneakers. Heck, I'd take pajamas with an ammo belt strapped on over this flat green bore of an outfit. Maybe I just don't like tracksuits.

I can't believe they didn't make IQ's outfit a more Trinity from the Matrix look; that would have been dope as hell and actually fit the character's ability of being a cyberwarrior. Or at least some kind of 90s hacker poo poo, there's an entire movie of that aesthetic to draw from. Instead we got dumb 80s workout gear which frankly I saw enough of in the 80s and doesn't really tie into the character at all.

It was the 80s official workout gear of the GSG9. It's still military themed, unlike some gimmicky cyberwarrior getup. Hence why Valkyrie is a war photographer.
