How to RendeZook in Planetside 2 Guide + Tips (No Longer Works) - YouTube

Hello people, Joshino here.

A lot of you might remember the Battle rank 100 RendeZook

video I put out a little while ago.

i thought id share with everyone, what I now know about the trick

This video then will outline how to pull off the maneuver itself

and some further tips to ensure that you have the best chance of hitting that pesky

enemy ESF.

Quickly going over the manoeuvre itself which is also covered quite

well by quadranTV I have some adjustments in a little bit on my way of doing it

first of you really need to have the dogfighter airframe equiped

or the default airframe otherwise your aircraft will drop in a way

which doesn't allow getting back in

Personally I have pulled it off with hover on the scythe but I had to move in

the air

and often only got in by the skin of my teeth It's It is slightly harder with the scythe because

you can fall through the central gap. Even more so, the HUD being light blue

is quite off putting as you will be pointing to the sky and may find it

hard to read. OK, so you need to map a key to roll right.

I set mine to G, also you need to remap your exit/entry key to e or

a key close enough to allow you to roll and convieniently jump out of the scythe together

at the right moment

So onto the maneuver. You get yourself up to around 30 Degrees vertically

use the HUD to line this up. Then you need to be completely level on the horizontal bar.

Where it should read 0degrees, Then you roll using the set key

in my case 'G' until the vertical bar of your cross-hair

and the horizontal HUD line meet - then you eject.

you have a second to to fire then turn back to the ESF for reentry

I advise spamming 'E' keep to back in as you may go passed it otherwise.

just a note HUD changes remove the horizontal bar in the Mustang(NC Default) and in the

Saron(VS Default)

so you'll have to turn to 90 degrees which is slightly harder

anyway, both angles can be very slightly off as in real situations you may be forced to jump

early to escape destruction

also jumping at higher or lower angles may look more dramatic

but will be more risky I don't know if it's a placebo but it seems you can hold SHIFT

and run slightly in the air

it is what I do I have the case of wandering aircraft.

First of all on the tips. I'll cover the rocket launchers themselves.

OK so you have a choice between the Default launcher for your faction and the Decimator.

As for the moment the phoenix is unusable with the ADS while jumping changes.

The downside of the Default launchers is that

they do not quite kill the enemy but take them to burning.

Meaning that those with fire suppression will survive and those without will die.

I'd say 10-20% of pilots run fire suppression, so it is always a

risk.

however you can hit them prior and then do the maneuver

but that's another added notch of difficulty.

The decimator one hits ESF but it is slower than the default launcher and has a much more

immediate drop,

meaning you'll have to them closer. Okay onto the biggest tip of all...

Positioning your enemy and subsequently aiming your shots.

So first of all, the best place to have the enemy ESF is right on your tail. Meaning that you will need

to get their attention.

I often shoot at them or around them to do so.

lso you want them slightly elevating to meet where you were before you bailed.

So that you can aim slightly above them and get a hit. Although not at all

impossible,

longer shots and ESFs which are further afield are harder to aim at.

Partly because they have more chance to dodge the incoming projectile.

And also because the projectile drop will be even harder to guess at range.

Furthermore aiming is quite difficult due to the fact that you are movinging in

the air,

as well as the enemy there is a bit of luck involved

as well as some approximate guesswork. getting any interposition

Getting the enemy into position

One of the little manoeuvres I often do, is too dip down when they are on my tail

almost going underneath them, forcing them to readjust then coming up again

into the 30 degrees angle

when I feel like they are my tail I make the jump.

More often than not

they will readjust behind you to fire.

Plus you will probably take too much damage if you simply get into position

straight away

which especially for good pilots could mean your swift demise!

Another tip is to use any

buildings as cover

or even rocks using a similar tactic of making them realign to shoot whilst

have a chance to get into position.

I find that bio labs allow for this in that you can dip under them and reamerge

on the other side

in your jump angle.

You might also want to use cover to generally stop their fire from

killing you,

even autorepairing until you have enough health for another chance.

I'd advise breaking off if you notice an air to air lock

they don't need to be behind you at all.

Furthermore, jumping out of you aircraft whilst lagging can freeze it in the air

as you hurtle forward to your doom! This has happened too many times to me.

Finally, fire suppression has saved my bacon quite a few times

and is very helpful in keeping you alive whilst rendzooking.

Anyway, I hope this has helped

and you can have some fun trying it out. until next time less

Until next time.
