With Issue 19, I was able to work in Vengeance, Hasten, and Super Speed. I currently have the Spiritual Radial Boost slotted for the extra recharge and healing (with Life Drain).
I soloed the first 32 levels on this toon at -1x1, and hated it. I forced myself through it, 'cause I needed a bubbler for Rikti mothership raids. Since then, the Vigilance solo boost came with Issue 17, so it'd be a bit easier now, but not by much. I recently soloed a tip mission at 0x3, and while doable and very safe, it was extremely slow. I really would not recommend soloing on this toon, as Force Field / Dark Blast is meant to be team support, which it's great at. But for solo, just about anything else would be better. -
Quote:Like Force said above, it sounds like you didn't do the first Vanguard mission arc on that toon. You need to get the badge on that arc to be able to get more than 10 Vanguard merits.Originally Posted by Peterbilt
I got in on the 3rd raid (I think) and got a grand total of 10 Vanguard Merits. Yes, 10. Some glitch in my computer stopped awarding them to me.
(But I did get 3 shards, so that kind of made up for it a bit. But could have slotted my Alpha if I had those merits.
) -
Quote:Fire / Sonic would be just a tad bit end heavy. Rad would probably be a better fit there.Originally Posted by DreadShinobi
There is no primary other than fire!
(Sonic/Dark and Rad/Dark arent bad though) -
Glad to hear it, and thanks for coming out. Even with all the new stuff added to the game recently, Rikti mothership raids are still my favorite thing to do in the game.
Although I really do like the new Tin Mage Task Force.
-
As someone who's had a Force Field / Dark Blast Defender as his main character for the past year and a half...
No.
Frak no.
Don't even think about soloing on him. It's simply not fun, and you'll pull your hair out. -
We are on for two back-to-back Rikti mothership raids tonight, starting at 8:30 P.M. ET / 5:30 P.M. PT. See y'all in the War Zone.

Interesting strategy.
Yes, I will lead two back-to-back Rikti mothership raids tomorrow at 8:30 P.M. ET / 5:30 P.M. PT.Quote:Originally Posted by Peterbilt
More importantly, is the next raid Thursday?
Sorry, but that's too late for me. I'm sure enough people would be interested if you tried to organize one, however.Quote:Originally Posted by Peterbilt
And is there any interest in scheduling an 8:30 PST raid? (Darn EST times are just too early for me.) -
I think I'm going to respec into Group Fly and have it on at all times. We're sure to earn extra Vanguard merits that way.
-
Mine are just in the natural server order of when they were created. I guess I'm boring.

Quote:The veteran Assemble the Team teleport power could be handy, but really wouldn't work with the way that I run Rikti mothership raids, imo. Once the mothership's shield goes boom, everyone is supposed to head directly for the mothership's bowl, with the exception of one or two designated members of each team, who locate an unused grate and place a bomb. The team bombers would have to be sure to have the team teleport prompt on, and even then that'd be something extra for them to click while trying to place a bomb.Originally Posted by PumBumbler
While the OPs post might have been tongue-in-cheek, using vet tp during a ship raid is quite worthwhile to get everyone in the bowl near the same time.
This allows everyone who might be straggling to get into a nicely compact defensive area to pull a whole lot more rikti into a kill spot. Having everyone show up at the same time also helps secure the bowl if the center mobs are filled with magi.
Team teleport would be effective in that circumstance during ship raids. -
I would certainly hope so.
Although now he just gave me the idea of wormholing a bunch of Rikti from the top of the ship to the bowl... -
Erm...
No.
You could team teleport to the Rikti Pylons, but you'd just end up wasting everyone's time, as your teammates will probably already be at the Rikti Pylon by the time you've teleported them. In addition, Vanguard merits do not start accumulating until we reach the mothership. Once we're at the mothership, team teleport won't make an iota of difference as we're all just kicking Rikti butt in and around the bowl. -
Perhaps this is what you're referring to?
-
I'm just now able to get on the forums myself. Stupid Comcast.
-
Going to cancel tonight's mothership raid so people can attend the Test server shindig if they choose. See y'all in the War Zone next week.
-
So, apparently, there's a meet and greet with the developers on the Test server tonight at 8 P.M. ET / 5 P.M. PT. I don't know if there'll be enough interest to run a Rikti mothership raid tonight when people can frolick in the snow on the Test server with Positron. :P
-
Thanks to everyone that came and helped out with last night's Hamidon raid! Sorry for the early call on Hamidon during the final wave, but I didn't realize that two of the green mitos were practically on the ground.

... But... But... Broadsword is so slow! Thank you for the answers, y'all.

Why can Katana not be paired with Shield Defense? I know the argument is or was that Katana is two-handed, and thus can not use shields. However, Dual Blades Brutes and Scrappers can wield two katanas, one in each hand, so that invalidates that argument. So what is the real deal?

Happy Hanukkah!

What: Blue side Hamidon raid
Where: The Hive
Date: Today, December 1, 2010
Form up: 8:30 P.M. ET / 5:30 P.M. PT
Roll out: 9:00 P.M. ET / 6:00 P.M. PT
Bring: (Preferably level 50) Arachnos Spiders, Arachnos Widows, Blasters, Brutes (with or without Taunt), Corruptors, Controllers, Defenders, Dominators, Peacebringers, Scrappers, Stalkers, Tankers (preferably with Taunt), and Warshades. If your supergroup base has a stockpile of Essence of Earth inspirations, bring some of those too.
Raid leaders will be announced at form up. The raid will be evacless, and we will complete all four waves of mito spawns before finishing off Hamidon.
Hope to see y'all in the Hive tonight for Jello. -
Dang it, I might actually have to take Super Speed now. But I like aggroing half the map while speeding to the last room on the map!
-
Um, the vast majority of the game's content is mission based. You're seriously trying to tell us that you don't get capes for your toons because running the cape mission arc is too painful, and that you won't get any Incarnate stuff on your toons because you have to run a mission arc?
Seriously?
Your loss then, I suppose. -
Happy birthday, Dazz!
