    Reading any Ultimus topic is like browsing web traffic farm websites. Why oh why doesn't ignore block titles, major flaw in the forum software ; as well as my lack of willpower, but one can be easily fixed... GUESS WHICH.
    I know people have soloed the RSF, but the STF? Proof or it didn't happen.

    I hate all the stupid temp powers some of these trials have. I'm looking at the regening lichen and the mushrooms you gotta collect. What happened to all those rads and darks and colds and poisons etc why aren't there minus regen powers working?

    I also hate that in some of these trials a single person can fail it for everyone else makes me cringe even thinking about it.

    Ya man warshades get some stuns a little later on, perfect for removing Qauntums from the battle then killing while they stumble around helpless. What's the name Gravitic Emanation is an aoe stun. Or ya could go black dwarf when you get that and just tank the *******. Either seems to work for me.

    Dwarf doesn't come till 20 though and the aoe stun not till 26. Till then idk team or something they become non issues on teams.

    This is the only thing I have noticed but it's usually for just a split second and like a million explosions are happening on an itrial or itf or something big like that.

    Hmm how bout if you don't like how people are running their teams you start your own team. Sounds easy don't it.

    To me the more obvious one is ragdolling. Which looks at least as odd as the sparks, but can also be quite advantageous.
    Or disadvantage if your a MM. My damn pets have been getting stuck much much longer in this new ragdoll and it completely turned me off the AT again.

    Because they have James Woods syndrome, if it aint making them money and shiny they tend to forget about it.

    The entire trial revolves around the effort to sway the general populace into seeing that Emperor Cole is the bad guy. Lobbing grenades into a crowd of civilians isn't going to help that goal.

    It doesn't make AoE-centric characters useless on the trial, becuase there is a whole other thing they could be doing while the single target people are dealing with the civilian situation. The instructions in this case are NOT complicated, and it should be common freaking sense that you shouldn't kill the people you want supporting your efforts.
    That's the problem, most of us don't give 2 ***** about getting the civilians of Preatoria on our side. Why should we this is WAR. WAR WAR WAR. War means blowing the **** out of your enemy because it's for the greater good. Nuking preatoria is the only reasonable choice at this point. Again I use real life situatation We nuked Japan and and didn't care about their civilians.

    That's the complaint this writing is stupid as ****, it makes zero sense and it's extremely hard to take seriously. Who ever wrote this as well as the last few incarnate trials well this may sound harsh but I would can their ***.

    This is war nuke the bastards. We didn't seem to mind when it was the Japanese in WW2 and I'm sure lots and lots of civilians were in fact nuked and that was real life.

    Just another reason this trial fails and the writing is awful awful awful.

    The poster I quoted and your defending never said anything about being just as effective. But I will say if I can solo 4/8 and you cannot then I am more effective then you.. I can handle what a full team can handle, my one toon is equal to 8 other players and then some. So I cannot see how you or anyone could not think that is NOT effective. Is someone doing 5/9 setting I don't know about ?

    I posted a build and I said what can be done with it. As always I am willing to show anyone in game this is possible if they find it questionable.

    There is a reason why I have that stuff in my signature and more posters should learn about the math that makes this game work as it would change their minds.

    But I will leave you with this blanket statement. Energy Energy blasters are no good and ruin teams.
    I just wanna chime in about something. Just because your petless MM can stay alive in 4/8 setting does not mean it's equal to a full team. My fully incarnate scrapper can stay at the aggro cap with monsters in the hive/monster island and solo them doesn't mean he's equal to 50+ people( though if you wanna say he is I may blush)

    On the petless, basically you have a gimped corruptor. Anything a petless MM can do a MM with pets can do and then some all things being equal ie player skill/build etc.

    But you know what MM is the only AT with a whip and that's pretty badazz and this game aint excatly Megaman 9 in terms of difficulty so do it I'd still let ya join my team.

    Good Grief, Charlie Brown. I hope they do not make the problem worse.

    The Well is problematic on two main levels.

    1) It retcons everyone's heroes and cosmology: simply stated, your origin story is wrong, it was the Well of Furies that gave you your powers.

    2) It gets into areas really not required. The Well takes on the trappings of real-life Diety in many aspects, and that is not necessary. Like it or not, however, here it comes. "Incarnation" has specific definitions in many religions, and as long as we are not getting any more serious than Greek mythology style "incarnation" giving us Heracles, then we are still in Wibbly Wobbly Superhero Stuff and you can sort of hand-wave it all away. When I was reading the comics, Odin and Zeus happily co-existed without any thought as to who was Top Dog. The Well, as it is being presented, goes above and beyond the call of duty, and when it is presented as being the source of all power for everyone and everything everywhere and able to possess Statesman, against his will, and make him chatter like a sock puppet... that puts a whole new look and meaning on being an "incarnate" of the Well. They did not need to go there. They did anyway.

    Technically there is a third level, in that the actual scripting of all of the above is very problematic also, but that is execution and not concept.

    The overall concept, as presented, is, for me, extremely flawed. Once the Well became sentient and insane, in addition to all-powerful, we had a problem, Houston. It won't be cured by saying, "Actually it was (NEMISIS) actually making the all-powerful Well their puppet to make puppets of everybody."

    Well, actually, maybe the White Lab Mice WOULD work...

    I have a earth/fire soft capped s/l and perma dom only uses 1 purple set. It's really not that hard. Especially if ya pick up the ice shield or scorpion shield.

    nothing really is sacrificed and the only difference with the live build is instead of fly I have super speed.
