Topic: Probing weapon arming status (Read 895 times)

In my recent battle with Dfly after I launched my type R he fired a probe, I am assuming to see if the torp was still armed. Does that always work? I ask cause it hit him dead on, and I doubt he screwed up dropping a weasel, and because several of our players have also said that probe readings are not always on the money.

So which way is it, does a probe fired give a true reading of your opponents weapon arming status ?

It's not 100% reliable.

So does it sometimes work? Like any ideal what the odds are or what triggers it to work,.. any other info?

Thanks though, I was mighty astonished to smack Dfly with the R after I saw him probe me.

Nothing more more embarassing than shooting your load, and then getting probed. $:-\$

I would say that it works roughly 83%, being 5 of 6 times. Trust it never, believe it most times.
