I'll make sure my post reads that his first choke attempt ceased instantly because he got shot at by Emerald and it doesn't continue. He dodges Emeralds, out-ranges. And I have to get closer for an attack. This cool?
Honestly. If I jump to the side, or anywhere backwards any real distance, i'm outside of a 30 meter radius of Fyston. Which is literally the very edge of his weapons range. I did go to a tech mod, anything past that range fizzles out. So if I'm dodge Emerald's shots by jumping to the side, i'd be out-ranging Fyston by proxy. Which would mean I'd have to get closer for any kind of attack on the side too too so I'd do that.
And I don't think getting on the ground is an option since his physical actions say he just peppered the air, impling (to me) he was shooting randomly and I could still get hit by his attack even if I don't move in addition to Emerald's attack. And plus sitting duck.

That said, this post states that the speed of a blaster bolt is 34m/s, meaning particle bolts would travel at a rate of about 27m/s. You being about 30m away from both parties means that you'd have about a second (a little less for Celtar's bolts, a little more for Emerald's) to respond.
The thing is though, the range given on the pistol isn't an optimum range. It's a maximum range. I was wondering too what it was supposed to be, but it's a maximum range.I've spoken with an RP admin who has informed me that blaster bolts do not dissipate upon reaching their optimum range
I'd also like to have clarification from a tech authority on blaster bolt speed. I don't see a set speed in canon. I just hear them being slow.
So, we've officially entered a grey area. Technically @Arclight outranks @Loco when it comes to PvP, yet Loco kinda outranks Arclight when it comes to tech moderation. Until we've heard from them on the matter further, let's just all walk away from the keyboards and focus on something else for a little while.
Well, I would also like clarification on this as well. Just for the sake of certainty.
undine I'm trying to understand where your character is she inside the arena or something else just making I'm not misreading anything.
