Knife Gibbing School??

by **rainbow Eric** » Fri Apr 10, 2009 9:01 am

I've being playing for some time now....
but i still can't get my knife gibbing skills together.

Any PRO's out there to give any tips? :help:

I'd love to learn how to single stroke gib with a knife.

Does my angle to the body matter?
Does it matter if i stand or should i be crouching?

crouch from head point your cursor at toes pretty simple. It does take me a few specially in battle.

It also helps to have a sensitivity around .4 that way your mouse doesn't stray to far side to side when engaged in battle. I know I get nervous after I backrage my kill and want to jerk the mouse spazztically. Also, having r_mapoverbrightbits and r_overbrightbits set to 3 will help you see the feet better when performing the gib. I would also suggest setting your cg_bobup and bobroll to 0, that way you don't get distracted by the bobbing up and down motions while gibbing. Also, r_picmip set to a higher value will help smooth the textures around you, giving you better fps. This should help you in executing a much smoother gib motion. I would also suggest capping your fps to 76 or 125 so that you can jump to a downed body quicker via strafe jump. The one knife gib is not an easy task to master, but...I thought I would post my tutorial since it's the cool thing to do, har har har.

Well if you ever backstabbed someone before (in the game) then its the point on the back you stab that corresponds to the point on the stomach to which you should stab.Only difference is you have to crouch and tilt the mouse a little down. You should use +salute (/bind mouse2 +salute) as it grabs the body and makes it easier to quickgib, especially if half their body is in the wall, drag it out and then you can quickgib.

Spectate players that do it, and you'll catch on quickly.

Er Getting headshots is harder than a quickgib. So your overrating its difficulty-ness.

Gibbing works like this, an alive body has 140 hp (medic assuming) a dead body also had 140 hp. Thats why it takes 5+ shots to gib and it will only take 1-2 knife strokes to gib successfully because its working as a backstab therefore doing 120+ damage.

Once you practice a bit and get it down, you'll be able to do it in your sleep.

Just be cautious about that if you're a sleepwalker.
