Am likely to take the +tohit power for using Howling Twilight on AVs, hate when that misses on my MMs, so will try and make it not happen on my defender

[/ QUOTE ]

iIsn't Howling auto-hit in PvE? I've always thought it was. Aim is nice before Fearsome Stare & Howl followed by your single target chain. Also very handy vs what will be your (ahem) Nemises's. Vengence is very annoying and Aim lets you hit through it. With no -Defense debuffs Aim comes in dead handy.

Rooting isn't a huge issue for a Dark/Sonic, most things are quivering in fear anyway or are getting debuffed by Darkest Night and/or Fluffy.

Damnit you're right, I guess on a Dark aim isn't as nice as it is on a Rad cause you can autohit that -regen. Still before Fearsome it should be good

[/ QUOTE ]

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

No, I hope their parents named them, and they've shamed themselves so I don't need to name and shame

I just wish everyone would stop using the bloody ships.

Last night I picked 4 on the trot that were all inside ships.

It would be very difficult to tell a story about pirates in the caribbean without at least one mission set on a ship.

[/ QUOTE ]You could have them set in a tech lab or university instead.

Happy Bday mate! Have a good one!

You're back too??! Awesome

[/ QUOTE ]Are you implying that people leave this game? Surely not!

[/ QUOTE ]

Some people should though

My Dm/SR can solo AVs and cost under 300m

I'd probably say Fire/Shield as a wide guess at all roundness cause of less AVs with Fire Res and def being a fairly handy way of standing there, allowing more time for offence

DM/Shield is probably safer, and may be quicker against some foes too

But Katana has space for that proc which neither of the above do, unless they put LBE in and use it in their attack chain. Which lowers their DPS I would think, but not sure

So the game is female . . . . . interesting . . . . . .

Crud, this means that my relationship with this game just got a whole lot more difficult to explain to my partner...

[/ QUOTE ]

How do you think my wife feels about this. She's now playing with a another female

[/ QUOTE ]

Which has boosted your appreciation of the game?

Wait you mean we're all here paying money to have a female on the internet entertain us? Surely that's unheard of

See I always avoided Atlas before cause I hated the spam there, now its somehow managed to get worse. Its really special that they put the building there cause it at least keeps most of the pointless annoying shouting in one place, but its not good if you actually want to use the MA I guess, or Atlas itself

Having 3 accounts I guess I might not have a problem but I think I'll wait until NC Soft has a working store before I risk my money

My /Dark MM is pretty much routed all the time, but with Dark it doesn't bother me. Used to bother me a lot with Fire Manipulation on a blaster being routed though. Routing with Mitigation is fine, without it its a dead character

If they're unique and certainly not liekly to be created by random letters or name association then it's very strange indeed!

If it were the characters Bob and The Other Bob, then I wouldn't be that concerned. but unfortunately it's two two word names that don't exactly go together normally.

From my attempts at Sonic Blasting (ditched for Ice in the end, just couldn't move quick enough for old defiance) I liked the DoT ST attack and I can see that the cone will be useful. Shout is the high damage attack, does it chain with the others well enough, assuming Twilight Grasp to fit the gaps?

The only AV it wasn't enough for was Chimera for me, but that's more his Caltrops meaning I could get 1 shotted...... hate how I struggled with him and then at the end of the arc walked Tyrant, went back and still struggled with Chimera. I had to run Tough and carry greens to beat him, other AVs I just needed the odd blue

Katana is, IMO much better suited for soloing AVs and I've seen a few Regens being able to stand infront of AVs fairly safely so I'd think the two combined would be more than acceptable

I don't have an ubba recharge build but I have the US style slotting, there's a fair bit of +regen in my build though

I took the epic hold over BFR because it unlocked other powers I wanted. I dont tent to use the holds all that often on my blaster where pure damage normally outdoes the hold. I did originally have BFR as well as the other two holds but IMO it was the one that was least useful. If I needed something held I needed two fast applying holds, BFR is better than it used to be, but still not great

Wait until you go up against someone with shield + shurikens.

Impossible to take em out ><

Dog + Stick and I didn't even get a go............

OK thats another one in the line, happy birthday

IMO Freeze Ray is much nicer than Bitter Freeze Ray, utility wise at least as the duration, activation and recharge on Bitter Freeze Ray make it more of a damaging power than a quick panic hold

[ QUOTE ]
Ummm, I dont think so. In fact i see a video in youtube a guy with an BS/WP sooling lots of Av, and without temp powers or inspirations.

[/ QUOTE ]

Didn't say it couldn't be done, just its one of the less suited sets for doing it. Though mine is with SR and parry is uneeded, maybe parry could add survivability and you wouldn't need aidself so often or something. It falls in way behind my DM and my Claws though for DPS

[ QUOTE ]
Yes Cyn... and yet you have but only to play it once. Or not even that as you can rate at any time and then quit.

[/ QUOTE ]

But the maths involved in the rating makes such a small difference that other peoples ratings cant really put you off thanks to large numbers
