Honest thoughts about fighting styles

I would like to preface this by saying i do genuinely love using fs, some may say i’m an fs crutch, i dont HATE fs nor do i have anything in particular against it, but generally i’ve seen MANY mixed opinions on how good fs really is for the average player, in a pvp standpoint of course.

now obviously we aren’t strictly talking about size ileg / sailor i think we can all kind of agree just how broken those kinds of builds are, nor am i strictly talking about any SPECIFIC TYPE of fs, but what i am talking about is fighting style’s moveset, like crash, smash, shot, rushdown, etc.

now i suppose i’ll start with my personal opinion, ive been on fs since launch essentially, and when i started actively pvping i went basic, and im STILL on basic now

and if i have to say, crash and rushdown has been amazing to use, same with shockwave smash, not a big fan of shot though i will admit it is essentially just a shorter range beam that does MUCH more damage, its still good.

I personally think that fs is absurdly powerful as most of it’s kit (shot thankfully not included) bypasses clashboxes and generally never has any issues with outclashing, though it does kind of fall flat in long range, obviously.

imma be honest
i feel like cfist isnt at its full potential
mostly because its hitbox doesnt work on enemies
you have to aim the area around the enemy and pray the aoe hits said enemy
which means no cfist SAM turrets
which also means no consistent damage
which meant no ranged damage basically
