    As far as I can remember, good vs evil have no specific "back details" or capes.

    [/ QUOTE ]No they don't have any back details in terms of changing costume at a tailor.
    Yes they do have a temporary back detail whilst used ingame for about 30 seconds.

    This is aimed at the OP, not you Neko... as I know that you already know this. Just used your quote to highlight it

    Wings?

    I bet you wish you hadn't posted in this thread now Imoba_Strife, in hindsight. Your first answer made perfect sense to me, but you opened yourself up to a whole world of pain. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt to show for it.
  6. On Paragon wiki it says "Only one of each of these types of enhancements may be slotted per power" on the LoTG set description. It doesn't say that you can't have more than 1 set per character though... so on that basis, yes you can have more than 1 decrease/recharge LoTG in your build... affording it's a different matter altogether.

    Reslotting... Think about it!
    You don't actually change your powers you just change their power.

    [/ QUOTE ]This idea has plenty of merit... Respecs for me now, is all about changing the number of slots or changing IO sets.. not about changing powers. Maybe this suggestion could be taken on and developed, I'm sure a lot of ppl would use this feature... depending on it's cost (Real money, Inf, Recipe or something else.)

    as well as not having anything available as early as the heroes 10-15 Positron task force

    [/ QUOTE ]And this would be a good thing????

    Seriously, IMO early (below lvl 15) taskforces are pointless as the powers available to you are very limited, especially if you took a travel power at 14. I can safely say that I have only done Positron TF for a) the badge or b) A solo challenge. Wouldn't consider doing it for merits alone, as it's pretty painful... what with all the travelling, not too mention overpowered Vahzilok. A villain one to mirror this, would be pointless IMO.

    I do agree that a villain SF is needed in the 30-35 lvl range though.

    GW on the other hand... Huge self heal combined with her mag 100 hold alone make her a lot more complicated than most other AVs. I think she also has a detention field kind of power which might take out a healer, tank or DPS.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's called Black Hole. Which is why Tanks should sport taunt durations and stay away from others as its an AoE or sport taunt durations and simply out range it. If you out range that you out range soul storm as well. Range in taunt is therefore useful.

    Going by what the Devs call soloing I believe her to be soloable with a Firetank

    [/ QUOTE ]On my Fire/Axe Tank, I have solo'd GW as an EB via the Deadulus arc.. but wasn't easy. From Memory I think I used most of my tray (inc luck, resist etc)... and may have had to rez at least once... maybe even hospital visit

    Interesting. I recently created a BS/Shield scrapper and I can't honestly say I find it rewarding to play at all. It seems to receive almost as much damage as my regen scrapper but has no means of healing. Is there a particular level when shields suddenly start to actually do something?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    The big breaking point for me, was once i got defense over 40%.

    BS/SD was always easy tho, with parry to cover up melee defense.
    Not sure what level you are, but it really changes once you pick up shield charge

    [/ QUOTE ]Know what you mean, last power I picked up was Shield Charge... and got to say... I love it..
  12. Sorry for the late post but have been busy.... Thanks to the final 7 that completed this, lost 1 member 45 minutes in, for whatever reason.

    Thanks to Uther Dracus (Broad/DA Scrapper), KingKai (Claws/Regen Scrapper), Usman Ahmed (Rifle/Devizes Blaster), Nc O'crazy (Broad/Regen Scrapper), Scathix (Mind/Rad Troll), Midah (Kat/Regen Scrapper) and my empath Cepheus...

    2 hrs 7 mins was a good time, considering how boring this TF actually is.

    Managed to get my first purple recipe drop in ages too, the bad luck was that it was a Fortunata Hypnosis one (sleep set), that was selling in WW for upwards of 10k... Got 3.5m off a random recipe drop during the TF, and also got 4m+ from a random roll with the merit vendor. Typical!!

    No you acted superior to him.
    Telling him how easy they are when different at´s, powersets and builds mileage vary.

    Can we just drop the EB as its irrelevant to this. I think how you wrote the post was dumb. I never said you were dumb as that would be an personal attack, kind of what you did.

    [/ QUOTE ]I could never act superior to anyone, as there are many people who have played this game for less time than me, that are better than me (understanding different ATs etc). I was a bit miffed at being called a dumb poster, hence my mini rant, but hey nothing personal.. and I have already apologised to Wisteria in a private PM, if I offended him... soloing AV's is a great achievement, especially if they test your build to the max...!! Time to move onto another thread, and annoy someone else...
  14. with you on that one... would love to play a SS/SD scrapper

    Dominatrix and Diabolique are not hard just slow. And dumb part was about how he belittled Wistarias achievment.

    [/ QUOTE ]Got to take issue with you here, Did you see the Graemlin? If you missed it... it was a wink... And I started by saying "I don't want to rain on you parade..." I think Wistaria's achievement was great, but I was highlighting that there are harder EB/AV's out there IMO. If you had looked at my post better, I also stated that I had problems with Nosferatu on my claws/regen scrapper and fire/axe tank... because he's hard to put down when you have no (or limited) range powers...

    Another point to make... any EB, can be sol'd as an AV, if you study that particular AV's powers and attack their weaknesses whilst being stocked up on large insps and temps.

    I think you're the dumb poster here... Toy.

    Just becasue my opinion differs from yours, or may belittle another's (not that that was my intention)... you say it's dumb. Sorry that it's above your intellect level

    Most inf!

    Most inf I had at anyone time was 80m, back when I was hitting RV regularly to get the pill badge...(which i'm still 700 short of ) but have been affected by altoholism again. I'm also like a kid in a candy store... when I have inf... I spend it, then need more... especially on lower lvl toons

    Villain Types

    [ QUOTE ]
    Does anyone have a list of all the villain types in the game(blueside)

    [/ QUOTE ]I was considering starting a spreadsheet, but realised that this would take ages. As you would need to right click on each different foe (ingame) to find their individual drop lists. But I'm not sure if their drop lists would change or not, dependant on level of foe... Anyway seemed like a lot of effort so gave it a wide berth in the end.

    First AVs soloed

    Don't want to rain on your parade too much... but the ones you've listed are some of the easiest EB/AVs out there.

    <ul type="square"> Malaise against a /regen.. no contest... regen wins as his prime powers are sleep/hold, that integration easily deals with.
    Mother Mayhem more of the same... but a bit tougher...
    Black Swan is a good achievement... as she is one tough cookie...
    Requiem too easy.[/list]Looks like you were a bit paranoid on the Malaise/MM mission as you had a whole tray of "Good Lucks" . That said, it's a great achievement and I can't belittle you too much... However, if you want a real challenge... try to defeat Nosferatu. He is a nasty EB/AV for a solo melee toon, never managed to defeat him on heroic without temp pets/powers, on either a tank/scrapper. Mind you haven't tried to defeat him since the new IO sets were introduced.
  21. Interesting title...boring thread... you've been warned!

    For ages I have been stuck in the personal mentality that Claws/Regen is the best scrapper AT, bias obviously (seeing as NC is my main and first 50)... However, that said have been having great fun recently with my DM/Shield scrapper.. and have started believing that this is possibly my favourit scrapper build... Survivability is great, DMG is superb, End reduction is minimal (currently at lvl 33), and in teams... eats through mobs easily with increased damage, highest seen so far at 370% damage bonus... Don't get me wrong, I'll still love my first, but for now.. I think I've found a better one....

    Any other scrappers out there had a similar experience, where you think that your original one is uber, but you can do better?

    However... it's not just this, that is giving me cause for concern. My empath (lvl 43) recently received a pool C recipe, whilst in a standard mission... I must admit that I was in a lvl 50 team at the time... but I got a Numina - Heal/Recharge when I possibly shouldn't have... not that I'm complaining, seeing as it would have fetched 25m if I had sold it at WW.

    This should be a random roll recipe only according to wiki, but what is more interesting is this bit of text.... Now, random generation of Pool C recipes is only done as a Taskforce Random Recipe Roll

    [/ QUOTE ]Lier, Lier, pants on fire...! It helps to check stuff before posting.

    Posted my original statment on a work computer, when I logged Cepheus in this morning on my home PC, I realised that I actually received Numina's Convalescence: Healing (50) which is WAI..
  23. Time for some very easy reward merits, 24 each infact. This is the tale of The Saga of Faathim .

    Contact = Justin Augustine The Chantry 8776, 1537, -5293.5.
    Badge Reward title = Protector of Kindness
    Foes = CoT, Soldiers of Rularuu
    Min Level = 44

    Looking for 7 other heroes to help me to free Faathim the Kind from his ice prison.

    Any ATs welcome.

    Anyway if interested, sign up below, start at 1430 GMT

    1. Cepheus - Emp/NRG Fender (If lvl 44)

    Looking at the 33 tasks required, there are only actually 5 proper missions (2 defeat all). The other tasks are either "Defeat XXX" or "Goto contact/location", and only 2 of these tasks are outside of the Chantry. With a well organised team we should be able to breeze this in 60-90 mins.

    Wd Cyn.
  25. I've personally noticed that salvage rate on my 50's seems to be slightly better when soloing, but my lvl 33 scrapper has been getting so much lately it's rediculous. However, I hear what Singstar says and must tend to agree a bit.
