Agreed, I often use my old found verdict with my old Fair and Square pulse rifle. Although at the same time someone using something better doesn't aggravate me. Note: I'm a hardcore strategist so, yeah....just wanted to clarify that before we go any further. Anyway, one of my main strategies for let's say the Mida multi tool, is to jump up fire shots in angel of light then drop down and flame shield. For the Hunter, do angled shadesteps that go in towards the opponent and then get close and personal. Titan......as much as it pains me to say this just, shoulder charge their ass, they'll get over it. Also a GREAT technique to counter a let's say party crasher. Run sunsinger with flame shield and fire bolt grenades. When the enemy "shot gunning" is within distance of your melee, quickly toss the grenade right in front of you and then punch your opponent. If you do it fast enough he will be raging saying, "How the hell did he just one punch me!!" Now I haven't tried this as a hunter with blink strike and an arc bolt but I'm sure it would work, maybe even better.
