lol?

marines can cap...cant they? And they have 1 available class to do it. Chaos has 2...of wich one is a long lived, hacking brute everyone is complainign about.

Shoot a tactical that is capping...since he cant move while doing it, he is dust in 2 secs and the point is deffended. Do the same thing with a MoN and you can actually survive the capping while they fire at you, and maybe even take one of them down AFTER having finished the cap.

That's what grenades are for.

At the very least it'll buy you time to pepper him with shots.

I can't see how you are unable to put 6-8 shots of plasma or 1 blob + 2 shots in 10 seconds

So we should all play Plasma now?

Speaking of my experiences...Sirs.

happened yesterday, I capped...couldnt move...got fired at from an Apo and a Tac...both Bolters...after capping I was still standing asking for more.

You know...not everyone plays allways plasma..

To my understanding, if team X is using paper and team Y is using scissors, team X should switch to rocks instead of throwing more paper at scissors, complaining how op scissors are, this is why we can customize loudouts and switch them on the fly after all.

Bolter is paper.
Ground assaults are scissors.
Plasma and meltaguns are rocks.

But that's just me.

not all, but at least those who think they will have to shoot at MoN

I wouldn't include tactical melta guns.
If they have an axe a roll and a swing is more than enough for them to grind your face long before you even get them down to half health. Clever MoN can get one Axe swing in you and put 4 pistol bolter rounds to kill you.
It takes two direct charge shots to kill a Mon or 1 direct hit and 5-7 shots. Plasma is also having a very bad habit of bouncing more frequently. Could it be less shots? Maybe, maybe due to latency/server.

Unless you are a devastator, you never really should expect to drop MoN before he reaches you tbh.

Its all about d-bash, roll back and finish what you've started, its also about awareness, but then again, if you can't see opponent, you're dead anyway regardless of class.

Roll back won't save you from the lunge range. I just roll with them and stick to the target. Dbash sets you up to be power attacked or backed stabbed. Im just going to wait for the patch and see what happens. If nothing does, I will post videos of me being a MoN with various weapons, and me being an SM as multiple classes with different loadouts. I have posted past scores multiple times but I feel video will get the point across better. Until then, fingers crossed.
