So, I advanced to Corsair about 3 weeks ago and so far it's been great. It's completely different from NLs and BMs where you just hold down a button and move back and forth. It requires a lot of effort to constantly switch between two modes of attack to balance mobility and power, as well as keeping up your Octo summons and Air Strikes at certain maps. Fighting HH has also been very interesting. You can hold him back with pure Cannons, or you can summon Octos and pin him, though you have to be careful not to let him gain too much ground while you're pausing to summon.

I'm thinking about making a control vid in a couple levels in the style of Rusty, so I've been browsing Youtube for ideas. To my disappointment, all I've seen are foreign versions, private server vids, and Corsairs who obviously leeched all the way and fail at playing their character, taking tons of damage to their ship and having retarded builds that somehow involve using Rapid Fire when their Cannon isn't even maxed (Rapid Fire is absolutely worthless unless you have 5 or more points into it, and even then, Burst Fire is more practical to use unless your ship breaks).

Can anyone direct me to some Corsair videos that actually show some basic understanding of how to play the class? I'd prefer training vids, since there's not much to demonstrate when it comes to bossing other than proper demount timing and learning to pin properly.

This one's alright, but my Air Strike has a long way to go to deal with Peak that way, even though Peak is probably one of the best places to demonstrate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FhvPlKtr2Q&fmt=18

Would also appreciate ideas about what to demonstrate. I already have some HH footage if anyone's interested in how to pin with Octos.

Question- Does elemental amp increase burns damage?
