Just discovered the fun of telemining.

Have also discovered how much fun it is when Stalkers decide that the perfect time to try ambushing you is when you're standing in the middle of eight or so 3-DMG slotted Trip Mines.

Man go BOOM, fall down.

We wish to bring down the whole sky,
But we never can.
What can and cannot be TP Foe'd?

I have to trade (to Defiant Hero types):
10 Arcane Material
10 Arcane Foci

Send tell to @Dreamweaver if interested.

I'd like to see a *Hero* MM Epic AT - the Commander, with pets as the Secondary...

SWAT TEAMS:
L1: Summon Riot Cop (melee with truncheon, upgrade to taser and short range pistol, final upgrade to Stun Grenades)
L16: Summon Specialist (start with machine gun, upgrade to sniper/medic, final upgrade to M30)
L28: Summon Battle Unit (Robocop - equiv of Crey Power Tank)

LONGBOW:
L1: Summon basic longbow (1 Rifleman, 1 Flamer, 1 Nullifier)
L16: Summon Spec Ops
L28: Summon Warden

SHAOLIN:
L1: Summon Warrior Monk
L16: Summon Mystic (akin to Tsoo Sorceror)
L28: Summon Smiling Old Bald Wrinkly Man With Broom (or something)

Telemining ftw!!! it rocks!! best trick in the devices secondary.

I hear ya, but seems I need to stick an ACC enhancer on those mines - at least until the buff transfer to summons thing works...

What if they're coming from the hills? Do we run the other way?

Thanks for advice so far. My build is now...

01: Slug
01: Web Grenade
02: Buckshot
04: Caltrops
06: Jump Kick
08: Swift
10: Targeting Drone
12: Sniper Rifle
14: Super Jump
16: Burst
18: Health
20: Stamina
22: Cloaking Device
24: Flamethrower
26: Taser
28: Trip Mine

...which I'm thinking of continuing with...

30: TP Foe
32: Full Auto
35: Beanbag (got this as a temp power so OK for now)
38: Auto Turret
41: Body Armour
44: Cryo Freeze Ray
47: LRM Missile
49: Smoke Grenade

If I have the chance to respec, would probably swap Super Jump for Hover/Fly, and drop Ignite in favour of having both Beanbag and Taser (yes, Ignite *can* be fun, but it's trickier to use solo.)

Questions:
- what CAN'T you TP with TP Foe - just Bosses and above or LTs as well?
- what's the "trigger range" for Trip Mines (they don't work if you're too far away when a target steps on them?)

No, that's Silver Weasel

Must... stop... doing... concept... builds...

Any ideas for how to build this up?

So far:

01: Slash / Fast Heal
02: Hack
04: Reconstruction
06: Quick Recovery (Stamina at Level 6 FTW!!!)

Whither, thence, American Maid?

I'm busily levelling up an AR/Devices blaster, partly for Stalker hunting - and after having been a part of a successful team in Siren's, here's the recipe...

First, preheat your Cloak and Drone.

Take some freshly laid Trip Mines - four will do, but why not indulge yourself? - and sprinkle lightly with choicest Caltrops.

Now pick your Stalker. Pluck them using the Teleport Foe method and drop them into the spicy mine and spike mixture. Flambe lightly with Ignite and Flamethrower and serve.

Yum.

Small announcement: Hero SG base should (theoretically) now be raid ready as we have:

- 8 rooms
- 1 entrance
- 1 vault
- 6 anchors
- 1 raid teleporter (only the Arcane one fits)
- Med bay
- Mission computer

That said, as I've mentioned on the VG thread, only the next size up is labelled as being raid-capable (or maybe the devs didn't find the right way of slotting stuff in).

BIG GRATZ ToeBee! *hug*

Good call!

PS: Anyone who chose "It Can't Rain All The Time" needs an intravenous caffeine injection...

As for AR just delete it post ED its way underpowered.

I'd disagree, since I'm rather getting to like my BFG-toting Ranger. Sniper Rifle -> Slug seems to take care of most things. And for those who debated the usefulness of Buckshot, wait till you're in a big team with big mobs. Caltrops -> Flamethrower -> Buckshot -> mop up survivors

QUESTION: does Target Drone buff temp powers? Got a free Beanbag from the PwnXXORZ! mission (hey, you recover thirty tons of dangerous weapons and they give you... a plastic bullet launcher. I love the PCPD) but it seems massively inaccurate, even with Drone and a mid-yellow insp on...

...or if this is Beanbag in its natural state, think I'll skip it for Ignite

...changed my mind. DW currently has quite a lot of spare Inf, so I'd get a custom one written by John Williams (genius!) and just use Nightwish for the battle sequences.

Thanks. Completed up to 21 now and the sweet relief of Stamina, but have a problem choosing between:

- Cloaking Device
- Beanbag
- Flamethrower

for my 22 power...?

Thread on that here.... (clicky)

Looking to trade stuff? Suggest this thread could be the place to start...

Looking for: Tech
Have to trade: Arcane
Server: Defiant
Alignment: Hero (remember, heroes and villains can't trade)
Send TotalCat tell to: @Dreamweaver if interested.

Theme tunes by character:

DREAMWEAVER: "Wish I Had An Angel" - Nightwish
Elegant and floaty, yet with sheer power of ROCK to back it up

POWERSTAR: "Angel Interceptor" - Ash
Relentlessly upbeat and driving

RANGER EMILY: "Running #1 Remix" - Run Lola Run soundtrack
Mean and downbeat but with 70s cop pulse behind it

AGENT FLUX: "Spybreak" - Propellorheads
...because somebody had to

PAPA LAZAROU: "Enter Sandman" - Metallica & The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra
From the S&M album. Massively overblown Spinal Tap version of a classic. It'd be funny if it wasn't so damn scary...

Sadly, Corruptors are yet to get a Jam-based powerset.

I DEMAND TO HAVE SOME JAM!

Tar Patch is close, summoning evil sticky black goo from the underworld (aka: Vegemite).

But it's still not jam.

Finding a better pair of shoes in Icon? :P

I think there could be one interesting switch here: if Warburg is a FFA zone, then surely Villains and Heroes should be able to team up?

Thanks for the ideas so far.

Bit of help on the concept: Mrs. Badcrumble is/was Eddie Izzard's shadowy Scottish clarinet teacher, so Sonic is a must. As is mystery, a hint of threat, a hint of sexiness, and jam.

Definitely the jam.

Looking for ideas for new villainess, Mrs. Badcrumble...

For the protection of our younger heroes and until the devs fix the bloody thing, DA beacon has been swapped for Boomtown.
