  1. Oppressive Gloom and HT is a nice combo too, so sayeth my Dark/Sonic/Dark Def.
  2. Cause being a brute isn't always about being selffish. Sometimes taunting that mob off the dom or corr is better for the team than you having 90% Fury rather then 75%.

    New Game Engine?

    True. I do remember the devs stating they upgraded the engine from hamsters to lemurs once before. So next step is...spider monkeys?

    Did you clock the speed of those critters? Do you know for a fact they are faster then the speed cap?

    I'm honestly asking because I doubt the same mechanic is involved.

    New Game Engine?

    When will then be now?
  6. I'm starting to think the devs made DP mediocre on purpose just so the forums would have something to kvetch about until I17, GR or demon summoning was released. And once I17/GR/DS is released, they'll buff DP somehow in the same patch.

    Brilliant.

    That's not what I said, and you are only confirming the benefits of fly and reinforcing the idea it should be slower than other travel powers that do not offer the same vertical movement.

    Not to mention, Hover is made for combat and is much more useful since it was sped up and does not suffer from travel suppression when attacking or being attacked.

    Travel powers are not meant to be used in combat which is why they have travel suppression.

    I'm baaaaaack~

    FF sucks, Cold is a better primary.

    DM/???

    Random thought:

    DM is like bacon...adding DM to any secondary makes it better.

    It certainly depends on how you measure recovery. If you measure by GDP, then the econonmy is recovering for the 2nd straight quarter. If you measure by unemployment...well...
  12. Freedom is my home server and I did not noticed anything our of the ordinary in terms of disconnects. There were a few moments of pretty large lag spikes but that's too random to pin down on any one occurence (could have been my computer auot-updating something).

    This.

    My inspiration tray is usually a dark shade of purple with some light blue/teal sprinkled throughout (lucks and wakies).
  14. I wasn't able to play much this weekend and when i did play I had to use my left hand for controls due to an injury. In other words, I made better progress on my debt badges than my experience bars on most characters.

    However, yesterday I was able to gain a level or so on my Fire/Dark corruptor by teaming with some great SG mates.

    The Boot Myth

    I was kicked from an ITF for using Rain of Fire after being told not too. I'm not a big fan of being told to "not do X" and it tends to make me do it more and to greater effect.

    EDIT: i haz 8000 posts. i haz cheezburger?

    Fury for Tanks

    The tank inherent, not INHERIT (lol @ you), Gauntlet is fine for the purpose of a tank...to absorb, control and maintain aggro.

  18. Basic marketing gang.

    DXP + I17 in one weekend brings interest to the game once.

    DXP one weekend, then Issue 17 down the road equals interest to the game twice.
  19. I've taken down Silver Mantis and Baphomet with my SS/WP Brute but I do have Gloom which does offer a little exotic damage. Plus, Sands of Mu is nice during my Rage Crash(s).

    Can't remember if I had Gloom when I fought those two or not to be honest.

    Silverado's advice is good, lots of red will help immensely since the damage cap is 850% for Brutes.
  20. All primaries have the ability to solo AVs (last I checked). The trick is getting enough survivability, endurance and recharge to complete the task.

    Teaming

    I have two responses for this OP.

    1. This reminds me that Spring Break starts this week for a lot of schools and colleges.

    2. Stop it OP. You're giving Florida a bad name.

    I'm annoyed by morons only, whether they farm, pve normally, PL, PvP or RP. A moron is a moron.

    Farming doesn't bother me one bit, neither does PLing, PvPing or RPing. I'm a pretty easy going guy. What bothers me is a moron; a straight up idiot.

    Dual Pistols QQ

    Then what do you want? I was in beta, closed and open, and I read thread after thread adn post after post that QQed about DP and it's lack of damage. The numbers show this set lies near the middle of the pack for blasts set.

    If you buff this set, then you have to buff all sets below it. Then you have to re-buff this set because it's no longer better but in the middle again.

    I don't think the devs care to buff the set to AV/GM soloing capability.
