Okton

Well unfortunately looks like I'm back to my original plan so won't be able to log on tonight since we're off to the countryside this afternoon. Somehow my argument of dinging 50 with the Coalition buddies didn't convince the wife of changing our holiday plans

So, the soonest I will be back on is Monday evening. As I said before, no worries if people want to ding before then, it would still be nice to be in a team when I do get to it though

From the illusion set I'd probably drop Deceive

I know some people don't care for it, but I'm a big fan of deceive. It's very handy throughout all levels (Embalmed Abominations, Tsoo sorcs, Sky Raider Engineers, Malta sappers) and useful for holding everything including bosses and AVs. And that's just on the PvE side...

Well Okton stopped 183k away and when I logged I think the Inspec was still about 7 bars shy. It now looks like I will still be on tonight, so if the Inspec can catch up and the others (Doulos, JB, Manf, anyone else?) can make it, we might do this tonight. A 9:30pm (UK time) start would be best for me, don't know if/how that suits others... Too bad no Team GBH-er is this close (I think), otherwise this would've been a nice Coalition pentad ding

Gratz Lumi!!! Well done! Setting a great example for all of us: no matter how much debt you get, it IS possible to reach 50

Phew, glad to see it is Okton that is that close . For one brief scary moment I thought that you had powered Chango to 49 already!

[/ QUOTE ]
LOL. No, focussed on Okton to get the Overlords base working (300k+ prestige ) and for DK's Hami raid. Then things just went very quickly after that... Chango might be a bit slower, but will get to him as soon as Okton dings 50

PS And this way I can wait for some Rangers in their 30's to catch up and ding together

As I said, only 49.2 atm and will be offline from Wednesday until Monday, so might have to miss it Hopefully can do it with the Inspec when I come back so we can have a double Overlords dinging

Raids require organisation. Organisation requires leadership. Leadership requires respect. Sorry, bob, but I don't see your raid happening on Union anytime soon.

Nice one Sunny!

Replying to myself...

For example I have EM Pulse slotted 2 acc 1 hold 1 endmodif 2 rchg. The endurance drain is quite effective and I'm not worried about hold duration since I'm also using Flash.

Yeh, they can do it better because the debuffs are SLIGHTLY worse but trollers have pets, controls and Containement...

[/ QUOTE ]
Have to agree with J here. Was on a 4-man high level (45+) troller team at one point yesterday and mobs (+3/4) were dying very, very fast. Remember some of us trollers have /rad as a secondary But in any case I would love to keep RadChango in the RadRangers because he's lots of fun and for playing with other coalition friends Okton's slotting of rad emission powers is slightly different, but I'll gladly take up Radio on his suggestions anytime.

Thanks for organising this D. It was good fun (well... as far as respecs go...) and got Okton into Hami range. But we never did answer the Great Question: is Sun Beam short? or is Star Jewel tall?

Hmmmm I find this post slightly confusing...

Stay away from ice, no snipe, 2 holds which can be sueful, but it is not as efficient at others as killing and keeping you alive

[/ QUOTE ]
Ok, so ice=bad. Roger!

[ QUOTE ]
ice slows them down and gives them a higher recharge rate (they attack less),

[/ QUOTE ]
Hey! It sounds like ice is not so bad!

[ QUOTE ]
Ice and fire are nothing special.

[/ QUOTE ]
Oh well.... nevermind...

[ QUOTE ]
If you care about P v P then energy and electric sets are worth taking a look at, and ice's holds and energy's damaging melee moves (which knocks the toggles, armours, off scrappers and tanks making them quite easy to beat) are a good combo,

[/ QUOTE ]
No, wait, wait... looks like ice can be good after all!

Well, I hope it does help... somehow... Just try a few combos for some levels and see which one you like best

[ QUOTE ]
*hurries to check his secondary powers...*
o yeah! FORCE BOLT FTW!!

[/ QUOTE ]
Does Fallout count as a nova?

[ QUOTE ]
They do?

[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, we don't (we have defender primaries as our secondaries). But I always have an energy blaster on my team: my Phantasm!

Okton will be 44 by then so just let me know if someone drops out and you need some extra control... Should help getting him closer to DK's Hami raid

[ QUOTE ]
pah forget blasters, controllers rule this place!

[/ QUOTE ]
I'd say... we both do

[ QUOTE ]
It's actually quite easy to take the entire final room all at once with 4 rads apparently! Certainly the highlight of the mission

[/ QUOTE ]
True! Funny how "usual" tactics don't apply: "what do you mean pull? let's just storm in!". Only the server crash managed to slow us down a bit...

[ QUOTE ]
Fish distributed? You've been in France to long!

[/ QUOTE ]
No Rogue, Poisson like Mr. Siméon-Denis Poisson (1781-1840). Might want to Google him... or not

[ QUOTE ]
The problem is rather the difficulty in quantifying "good" and calculating this into probability.


[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, "good" can be reasonably modelled by a discrete Poisson-distributed random variable...

Well just to let all of you know: it's actually quite easy to take down Frosty with a team of just 4 rad/rads!

Will be there. Both Chango and Okton can cause some serious headaches to unsuspecting villains...

Just a reminder that we'll try to get some RadRangers activated today (Sunday 11 Dec.) around 1pm (UK time) for some teaming in the Hollows...

I'm organising the 2nd Respec on Sunday at 3pm with my troller (about to hit 42). Freak-bashing galore with 2 door missions + Terra Volta reactor to protect. More details here. Minimum level is 34, xp up to 43, exemps welcome. If all goes well, should take less than 2 hrs. Meet in Founders' (at Numina) around 2:50pm (UK time) and post here if you want me to save a slot for you.

Confirming I'll be there too with Chango. Also, did Aggravator's last night with Okton, and if people are not exemping, there is really no way you can fail this...

Just in time for me to respec into my anti-stalker PvP build
