Or, ya know, break line of sight. Coupled with the fact that the range to actually latch on is relatively small, it’s not that hard to get away.
There’s a simple counter to her that you’re just not seeing. Don’t engage her close up. That’s where she shines is close close-medium combat. OM or WF can suppress her pretty effectively. Whittling her and her SS down from range will frustrate any Ambra. Any character that has range has an advantage over Ambra.
She is one of the slowest character without any slow and with only one speed buff on her passive at level 5… a possible push back at level 4 but useless if she chase you. And a stun only at level 10.
All character have at least a control (Slow, Stun, Push Back or Bump) or a movement skill (dash, jump, stealth, speed boost etc…).
So everyone should be able to run away from her as she is the less mobile character with Reyna and Ghalt. If you are in a middle of a fight that you may not win without any escape plan, it’s your fault
THIS!!
There’s so many people in this thread that have said she is so fast that I thought was taking crazy pills. She’s not fast and she can’t sprint while attacking. She is not terminator people are trying to make her out to be in here. RoR at level 4 is her only reliable way of shaking melees all up in her grill.
increase attack distance a tad bit more IMO. Longer channeling the more DPS it deals.
You can’t just break line of site with a character. That’s essentially just telling people not to fight her.
Engaging from a distance also doesn’t work, seeing as how she can either just walk around a corner and heal up or simply walk right up to you. Sunspots with almost zero CD are also good area denial weapons to keep you from being able to camp anywhere.
Run around a rock. Or a corner. Up some stairs, anything.
I do it all the time. Its fairly easy, and unless you’re already mostly dead, you have a really damn long time before it kills you.
I was playing as Ambra. I saw a Deane with maybe 5% health. I chased her all the way back to her supply station. It out healed my damage.
I’ve been trying to stay out of this discussion but your quote is the same niggling question in my mind. I main Ambra so I know how fast she moves and I too have absolutely no idea what the heck they are talking about either.
I’m talking about breaking line of sight when she locks on, which it seems like most other people can and manage to do. I’m sorry you are so salty about Ambra, but you seem to stick your fingers and your ears and can’t/won’t hear suggestions people offer to you to deal with her. Again, she has the lowest DPS in the game with her primary. Every other BB can out damage her. It’s not a death sentence when her primary starts attacking you. She’s not even close to the fastest character in the game, so you can usually out maneuver her. If you can’t or won’t try to use these tactics then I suggest you avoid engaging her all together. Some characters just aren’t meant to deal with other characters. Shayne is gonna have a tough time against Benedict, that’s just how it is. Perhaps whoever you mainly play just isn’t meant to be a counter to Ambra. That doesn’t mean she’s broken or needs to be nerfed.
There’s a sprint attack glitch.
PLEASE tell me how to do it before they fix it!
No. It’ll attract too much attention.
Now you are being mean to me, borderline cruel 
. Share your secret. It will just be between us. I promise 
.
What platform do you mainly play? I’m on PS4 and haven’t seen or accidentally done this once in a decent amount of hours spent playing Ambra. I’m thinking it’s a weird glitch native to PC.
I play on PC and have Ambra mastered, and have never run across the glitch. So if it is on PC it isn’t easy to run across.
Just between us? On a public forum?
OK, sounds legit. It involves her skills.
I didn’t know ambra only had 1 attack oh wait she doesn’t. Literally my first time using ambra i had 8 kills and 3 deaths it was a capture match. I read the information on how to play her only. So first part of the match i take the capture point closest sneak behind the other team found an oscar mike sucked his got about full heat set a sunspot down hit him with my secondary a bunch that had extra damage while he was in a sun and then he tried to run away and i sucked the rest of his health it was that easy. I as a first timer should not be able to try once and win
I personally think an easy way to fix ambra would be to make it so her primary attack would not life steal or gain heat unless it was from health damage only or slow down the heat process immensely personally i don’t think ambras primary attack is cancer i think its what comes with it. more damage on your secondary, life steal, not to mention after you get more damage on your secondary the timer for sunspots is almost non-existent so now you set up another sunspot.
And my first time using Montana I went 15-3.
Its a video game, the basics are fairly similiar to other things you’ve already done. Its not magic, people can be competent the first time they pick up a character quite easily, especially if you’ve seen them in action before.
You used he basic melee loop, and you came up on a relatively squishy character, that’s not really a surprise.
Her melee loop shouldn’t be as powerful as it is especially when ambra is as versatile as she is. She is best healer in the game at the moment, her helixes are godsend, she levels up easily since she gets assist from miles away, and much more the thing about versatility is supposed to be you excel at nothing but i find that ambra is almost never at a true disadvantage and i use her with ease. Ambra just has to much passively life steal skill that practically life steals a second shield a way to lower her best skill’s cool down that is easy while someone like pheobe as a passive gets her second attack that she kind of deserves anyway and a ■■■■ skill with an ok skill
