I've made a few tweaks to your build. This gives you a little higher recharge, more HP, slightly higher resistances, softcaps the three positionals, and it can run the attack chain.

This is the reason as to why many of us dislike MA, including me.

/Signed for sub-30 zones.

Hopefully the dev's read this thread and do something about it. The MA has a ludicrous lack of efficiency with how easy it is to use as a farming source for lowbies and teens. It's also irritating to receive MA farming tells everyday.....

You're probably best posting this in the PvP section.

In-game, I'd suggest that you send a tell to @Rent

He's a very experienced pvp vet and can probably awnser any questions related to pvp more efficiently than most of the forum lol

Eight Sonic/Rad Defenders! All with the Leadership pool!
They'd wipe through mobs in seconds.

If they can solo Rikti Plyons in under 5 minutes, and solo Lusca and every other GM, can you imagine the power of eight?

I think we're also forgetting that Controllers can pick up Indomitable Will from the PSI Mastery Ancillary set. That provides decent mez protection.

Anyway,

My un-beatable team:
.Night Widow
.Night Widow
.Crab Spider
.Crab Spider
.Fortunata
.Fortunata
.Bane Spider
.Bane Spider

That would provide a moderate amount of debuffs, provide both good ST and AoE damage, good mez, some pets and a lot of tactical training powers combined with the leadership pool!

That would be an awesome team!

You're lucky you asked before you spent all of ya inf on this build

Your current build cannot run Smite&gt;MG&gt;Smite&gt;SL.

To run this chain, you need:
Smite needs to recharge in 2.112 seconds
MG needs to recharge in 4.488
SL needs to recharge in 4.621 seconds

With Hasten on, you just barely have the recharge for Smite, more recharge than required in SL and not enough recharge in MG.

Put the five Hecatombs into MG (replace the damage with the acc/recharge). Put five Crushing Impacts (besides the Dam/Recharge) into SL. With this, you'll be able to run the attack chain.

Mid's displays Phalanx Fighting in-correctly. So you actually have less defence than you think. Alone, it only provides 3.75% +def to all positions. You're using it with providing 2.61% more defense than it actually will while solo.

So your actual positional defence is at: 42.9% melee, 44.9% ranged, and 41.7% AoE. Needing another 2.1% in melee, 0.1% in ranged, and 3.3% in AoE to softcap the three positionals.

Once, you've edited your build so it can run the attack chain, here's some of the slotting methods I'd reccomend using to softcap your positonals:

.Three BoTZ's in CJ

.Six slot DC with Obliterations

.Six slot BA with Red Fortunes

.Slot 3-5 Aegis into Tough

.Six slot True Grit or Health with Numina's

I reccomend them all to assist you on reaching the softcap. Maybe not so much on the Numina's, but if you need it to hit the softcap, it's something to consider.

Get some slots from:

.MG should be slotted with five Hecatombs (all but the damage one), so leave MG five slotted and get one slot from here

.The Eradication proc in SD isn't worth it

.Two slots from GC and leave it slotted with a LoTG: Global Rchg Speed IO

.Two slots from Weave and slot them into BA for more defence. Leave Weave 3-4 slotted with LoTG's, preferably.

.One slot from Health and a slot from True Grit, but it's not reccomended, so ONLY if you definately need the slots!

I hope this helps. If you would like to send future builds then I'll still be happy to examine them. Send them via forum PM, if you do. Contact me in-game aswell for any questions or queries. Global: @JeffJeffityJeff

Moral of that statement? Tentacles be good for atlas/new players!


[/ QUOTE ]

I guess this all differs on your opinion, to be honest.

I still feel that something large and crazy would seem more exciting, eg: Fluffy from Harry Potter

[ QUOTE ]
for Atlas:

I reckon, if the sewer trial isnt completed successfully for X number of days, Hydra's tentacles start popping up around atlas (anywhere there is water or a drain) and attack random passers-by.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's a interesting idea there. However, I feel that a new signature villain or something would appeal more to new players rather than a group of tentacles scattered over Atlas.

There's currently one negative thought I have towards this. This idea was suggested to form more enthusiasm to new players, but it could backfire; the new player could just walk into the GM and die instantly, which would usually put the new player off the game. This would obviously happen occsaionally, it isn't as if this would never actually occur.

Anyway, I'm still gonna support this suggestion for the positive outcomes of it. /Signed

Will these new imp sets have moving hair?

[/ QUOTE ]

You're still jealous of GW's moving hair?

I15: TF's, new costume pieces and new faces are always welcome. I also LOVE the new sound effects you hear when you're walking on different materials, eg: wood and metal. 75%

It's slightly lacking compared to the usual amount we receive in a issue, but that's probably down to the dev's working hard on GR and i16.

I16: So far, we've only been informed about the power customisation feature. I can't give this an ideal rating, but being able to change the colours on my /Regen and my Fire/ Troller will be interesting. 50%

GR: I personally won't use this for transferring my toons over to the other faction, but it is about time a new zone or/zones appeared! 55%

(getting bored of farming now)

[/ QUOTE ]

You took your time?

Welcome Makazi! It's nice to know that you've left the dark side

As already mentioned, Union is more reccomended for RP'ing. However, I encountered a group of approximately 5-8 players doing some RP'ing in Atlas the other day. So it's rare, but it's still there. Perhaps this is a opportunity to create a Defiant Roleplaying channel?

Anyway, if you have any questions or queries contact me via global: @JeffJeffityJeff

It's actually the Razzle Dazzle: chance for immbolize. I guess you got mixed up with the Stupefy: chance for KB.

Anyway, I can't really give you any advice or/reccomendations since I've never slotted the 'chance for immbolize' in OG.

However, my friend uses his second build to test out IO's and the such since he only wants the one build. So if you're not using your second build, perhaps you could consider this? Sorry if you expected some more efficient advice.

I'd reccomend you send a tell to @Dagar in-game and ask. He's rather experienced with Dark Armour.

/signed

Try this: /requestexitmission 1 or /requestexitmission1

1) No
2) Yes
3) Only the inf command

anymore of this and people are going to suggest you and i get a room...

[/ QUOTE ]

Aye. lol.

I guess I just didn't think that you were using crits as a term for creatures or critters. Oh well, it's 7am here and I've had no sleep

Ahh! I feel so silly now! lol

Sorry Captain Trench

I found it on wiki.

/requestexitmission
and this to exit the actual game: /quit

Post deleted due to me pefoming a silly mistake

[ QUOTE ]
how about a badge for killing a certain number of crits with just your sniper power? i can think of a few reasons why it might not be as simple to implement, but, just a thought. Killing snipers is really no different from killing any other type of crit so whilst the extra badge for killing snipers is always fun to have, it would be good to see a badge for something slightly less obvious, that required a bit of skill and/or patience to earn.


[/ QUOTE ]

"how about a badge for killing a certain number of crits?"
Killing a certain number of crits? How can you kill crits?

"Killing Snipers is really no different from killing any other type of crit" Snipers are an enemy rank for mobs. Crits are when you deal double damage with a power. They're two totally different things.

"required a bit of skill"

How would dealing criticals be classified as "skill"? Landing criticals are random. In addition, playing as a Scrapper or Stalker would make this badge easy as hell!

I realize that Lost Ninja has already corrected you on using certain terms for in-correct meanings, but I've never previously encountered anyone to mis-interpenetrate the meaning of "crits". I didn't intend to cause any offence (just incase I did); but this stuck out to me

[ QUOTE ]
I will probably do it on my brute as soon as i have gotten the rest i need. The idea of softcapping with less than 10 mobs appeals to me.

[/ QUOTE ]

Does that not appeal to everyone?

No problem
