  1. Great thanks alot man! Can't tell you how much this has helped, i've never been good at slotting or anything so to get some background on it helps a heap xD.

    (datalink isnt working i think, might be a problem at my end not sure :P)

    Do you mind posting your build? I am interested to see it on mids. Just so i can get an idea as to the best slotting technique. (came back after a long break so inventions are all new still :P)
  3. Ah great ok thanks, so would you recommend respeccing out of it later once i have disembowel and head splitter?
  4. Hey guys, me again . I have another question for you Broad Swordplayers.

    Okay so im getting on a bit now and ive realised not to take Slash, instead take parry, also i was thinking, do the majority of people take slice (cone attack) and whirling sword? (aoe attack) or forget slice and just go with the AoE?

    Appreciate the help :P

    Cheers man, i love creating costumes

    Oh also is slash worth taking for broad sword? I picked hack as my first power in the hero creator. I just picked slash because i thought it would speed things up in low levels xD.

    (Hope they give broad sword scythes now haha)

    haha, you cant please everyone! :P
  7. There, i now present you with

    Star Scythe!



    Master of time and space, Star Scythe is a very renowned Hero in Paragon City. His name was originated from his ability to rip enemies out of the fabric of existence with his signature weapon.

    He became widely recognised in 1962 when he defeated a Cosmic Being that was bent on destorying the universe. Although, in the process he had to sacrifice the one thing which gave him true power, his Quantum Scythe. Now wielding a high tech energy sword, Star Scythe has gone on a mission to find a true replacement for his lost weapon.


    (That was the best i could come up with, i think its better than "He'z a Warriorz wiv a Sword!")

  8. Thanks alot for your replies, really appreciate it. After reading that quote from BaB im positive i will go for BS / Regen. It has taken me 4 days to decide this.. (my job isn't the most thought intensive lol) so hopefully no one will come up with any more facts to sway me otherwise .

    Although as Nihilii said yes, this is primarily a toon for learning the story and doing all the arcs but how well does a BS/Regen cope with soloing an AV? I think i would be pretty proud of myself when that day comes around lol!

    And although yes i realise AoE can be pretty swift for leveling i do have a 50 spines/dark Scrapper allready.

    So thanks again and i'll be back shortly when i have other questions
  9. Hmm you have given me alot to think about, which isn't a good thing when you are as indicisive as me lol.

    I never even stopped to think about the redraw involved with regen as i have played it with Martial Arts.

    WP would seem like a better choice, but i'm not sure if i'm into the whole *hybrid and versatile* thing, i prefer a solid set.

    Who knew rolling alts could be so hard? I'm also finding it hard to come up with any broad sword and katana themes which are original. This is probably because i quit for a while haha.

    Thanks again for your comments, appreciate it!
  10. Thanks for your posts guys, appreciate your time. I think i will go with regen, as for the broad sword / katana problem, well i guess it is down to what theme i can come up with first that is the most original.

    No doubt i will be back to this thread seeking more answers later on.

    Peace! x
  11. Whatsup guys!

    Okay so you know the score, you make a toon, hit the sewers, then grind through all the missions without looking back...

    So i've been thinking of a *new* toon, planning on solo'ing it to 50 so i can really get into the story and learn the game inside out.

    (Yes, i know its hard work alone This is where you come in!)

    Okay so i'm going to be making a scrapper, i've asked around and it seems regen is the best for solo, other people have said willpower though. Any of you guys seem to think otherwise? Or shed some light on as to why willpower over regen?

    For my primary i was thinking of single target damage, e.g. Broad Sword Or Katana. Is the endurance cost of Broad Sword much more noticable than Katana? After getting my Spines/ Dark to 50 i want something alot smoother

    (i also have Martial Arts at 50, Martial Arts just doesn't seem good in the damage department)

    With the new ninja pack out is it still worth taking a travel power? And with the new body mastery power, can't remember what it is called but it's like a health and stamina combined, is that worth taking if i'm regen and already taken swift health and stamina?

    Appreciate any feedback you can give!

    Peace x
