Cynic

I guess that's to do with the secondary, cause with WP I dont ever find end an issue with FA running

Well the search feature is as bad as I suspected it would be, the amount of farming is the level I predicted. The overreaction to farming I didn't necessarily suspect, but every victory over farming seems to be annoying more and more of the genuine architects. I can see it going the way of the Shadow Shards if the current focus on limiting power levelling by limiting creative choice continues.

For me playing in groups is much more fun on a Defender or Tank than anything else, also playing my defender to 50 taught me so much about other peoples contributions to the team, but I'd guess if I was one of the more frantic spam focussed sets then it wouldn't.

Mine was a Rad defender but I'd recommend a Dark Miasma defender, it has good powers coming at good times, it contributes well to teams and lets you see what other members are doing

I love this game and want to see what it is capable of, but I must admit, CO is looking shiny, and frankly, I dont believe the "great things to come" rubbish any more, though if they want to prove me wrong and actually TELL us what is coming, I will eat my hat.

Come on Devs. You've got the chance now to make someone eat their own sweat-encrusted socks, without needing to resort to kidnap and actual bodily harm. When will you have another chance at this?

You've not seen the sort of people that tend to gravitate to me on a Saturday night out drinking...........

It was truly amazing before hand, pure awesome

Oh and I took the bodymastery epic because ET lets me knock foes down neatly and then stand in the middle of them before they stand up. I also run focused acc, I hate when Followup misses so I try to keep it at a minimum. Infact followup is the only power I have set IOs in its the core of my chain and all else revolves around keeping it active

I think this subject has been covered quite a few times and it has always ended up the same way: two teams of people arguing that farming 1) does not bother anyone who doesnt take part in it or 2) farming wrecks the game.

I dont think we've ever had a civilized discussion

[/ QUOTE ]

I think that covers most aspects of the game. Nearly everything is ruining the game on a constant basis if you trust everything you read, but you should have the right to do everything too

Have both at 50 and if I was going to pick one to play and level again it was Claw/WP. The spines is fine at 50 but boy did it feel like a slog to 32 to finish off the attack chains, claws just picks up and improves as it goes.

I do more AoE damage with my Spine/WP but I still think I play the Claw/WP much more. Out of my 7 scrappers at 50 it was the most fun journey and I'd remake it as a brute to do the journey again in a second if they proliferate claws

[ QUOTE ]
with INV you go for soft capping dmg types rather than mele, rng & aoe.

[/ QUOTE ]

Aye, which is why I went for regen on mine, but there are more sets there to do the damage types than when I slotted mine

[ QUOTE ]
If i would reroll my fire/sr i would go invul.

[/ QUOTE ]

Easy enough to softcap inv defence? My Inv is a spines and I haven't worked too much on defence on it, mostly gone for some regen and making it endurance friendly

For AV soloing? I'd go Shields or SR

Fire/WP would be better for general herd and kill though i think

[ QUOTE ]

The devs correctly understand that this game is adversley affected by excess farming.


[/ QUOTE ]However, they're banning arcs simply because they have the word farm in the title. So the only thing farmers need to do to not get their arcs banned is to not label them as such. And guess who gets hurt by that?

[/ QUOTE ]

Emos?

I think the pun-ishment should fit the crime - I'll slink off. Nightynight. .o/

[/ QUOTE ]

To slink off do you need to be pushed down the stairs?

Its an alright little power but I'd rather have slots for EMP and the Shield, I do have it but it's not overly slotted and I don't use it all that often, sometimes before a nuke because it gives me mitigation when I don't have endurance. Its more that Elec epic has better powers than it being a bad one

Its been a couple of days since we had a birthday now, glad to get another one underway

Happy ageing day

I like the _ in binds though, they make them tidy

yeah would probably ball lightning over burn but otherwise is a thing of beauty

Now I have a build to think about a 4th blaster in the making, but reusing two of my old sets.......hmmmm

Now to see that on an Elec/Fire for the PBAoE goodness....... that would just be beautiful

On a rad? Surely all that -defence is just a fancy way of doing what Aim does anyway?

[/ QUOTE ]

AVs have debuff resistance, they dont have self buff resistance, Aim helps

[/ QUOTE ]

I suppose you could say the same for Darks other -regen power, Twilight Grasp. But that's so spammy it doesn't really matter if you miss occasionally.

I find Aim handy on Dark/Sonics for ensuring a full Sonics attack chain hits. Very useful vs Rikti Drones (and Nemmies, but you'd be best off avoiding Nemmies, they're just frustrating for Dark/Sonics, they nullify all your best tricks).

[/ QUOTE ]

That's why I love Necro/Dark, can still fear nems

[/ QUOTE ]

Or failing that just send a horde of zombies to eat their faces.

That was the main reason my Dark/Sonics is currently in limbo at level 35. I have a level 42 Necro/Dark MM and he simply doesn't have the same limitations against certain enemy types : If all else fails eat their brains (or CPUs or whatever).

Synapse is the main limitation I found, the thing I found I couldn't deal with
