    Devices boring?

    Aim is also +dmg, which makes more difference than the +tohit.

    For great fun with devices - drop Time Bomb, Mines, Auto-Turret and Smoke Grenade, and focus on your primary That's what I did and it turned my character into a proactive lunatic it is nowadays. It'll be a big change, but you don't have to be setting up things in missions, you can just charge in like the rest of them.
  2. Or find a secluded location at the zone, but if you get attacked, blame yourself.
  3. Shouldn't post before the morning coffee... Editing for some sense.

    I actually had quite good fights at Union RV last night. There were people actually out for blood. Sadly, there were also the regular badge-hunters and farmers, but with the pvp'rs around, it didn't feel as annoying.

    Just a sort of a "thanks guys"

    DM/SR

    Something I've been toying around with. A concept build - SR with no movement power, no elude, no medicine pool. A bit silly, but who cares. Might be just enough for me to stay interested in the character for a bit longer than my usual scrapper attention-span of 12 levels.

    The big questions I have are - Are there enough attacks, how does one slot Soul Drain and is there a niftier way to slot the SR toggles than with HOs + extra?

    Any extra insight beyond those is nice and appreciated.

  5. Elecblast has good end drain, plus at least looking at your team composition, you already have two empaths coming (Recovery Aura) and one Rad (Accelerated Metabolism). You should never really run out of endurance. Even when facing Sappers

    Teaming with friendly corruptors is fun - Speedboosted, Ice-/Force-/Fire-Shielded Imps that get hit with Fulcrum Shift are really funny critters.

    YAY! More Domis in PvP.

    / feel free to continue with your regular on-topic thread now...
  8. I'd go with Bonfire. It works fine without any special slotting, as it's quite situational, and has saved my life countless times. But as said, situational power, and people tend to hate anything that does KB in teams.
  9. Just remember, you are not a heal0r, even if Thermal has Heals. The other stuff from Thermal is the stuff that really rocks your teams' socks off, so focus on that as well.

    Because &lt;name of a generic Top 3 villain group&gt; don't want to It's all their fault, we should all gang up on them!

    To the barricades!
  14. Still Super Jump and Superspeed (since you'll be taking Hasten anyways, there is no point in wasting a good required power and not take the second one as well )
  15. Swift + Hurdle + Prestige Power Rush + Combat Jumping + "SB PLS!½½!"

    Works every time
