    Would that make it one step closer to have on an iPad? I would likely be willing to pay quite a bit for a mids app.
  2. Illusion was worth it before it was possible to make the pets perma. Why wouldn't it be now?

    Clearly you have never played hellion kickball.

    Or more directly, maybe I want people to find the cabins particlulates in the Australian outback as an example to other unruly cabins.

    Same here. A comic about Spiderman traveling back to a time before he had his powers would be boring. Like Archie and jughead.

    Its not you, it's me. Sure, I stood by you, when everyone didn't agree that you were as awesome as I thought. Sure, they thought you were awesome, but not as much as I did. Anyway, I love fire now. Call me k? Don't worry though, I am fickle, I will probably find another already über power set to defend shortly and will toss fire to the side as well.

    My only issue with the pairing is that I like to kill things as well, and frankly, the bots are far more efficient than I at it.

    I don't use binds, but I also don't team with that toon.

    As for OP: White is right.
  8. On paper I have always found its -resistance to look interesting, until I read the fine print and realize it doesn't stack. I find Acid mortar from traps to be a stronger source, is only a single power, and I get get up to 3 out at a time. Even if it is a shotgun compared to poison's rifle.

    I am meh about -defence.

    That said, concept should trump effectiveness. If it is fun to you, that is all that matters.

    So blasters toggles still drop once they fire off their nukes? That's a slap in the face for sure. No wonder why people are saying it benefits defenders and corruptors more. I don't see how this change benefits blasters at all...
  10. I think it is a combination of the defence and resistance debuffs paired with the slow dot... It is a perfect flee situation. I try to drop pgt first and it manages to hold the spawn long enough for me to kill most of them. The few that run... Well, I'm on a ranged toon...

    Not arguing against it, but if they fix this, can they give the same treatment to quills?

  12. As I play corruptors, I will respond about changes to the blast sets. I will actually take and slot nukes now. That is all.

    All this "it's better on a X" crap is bollocks. The changes are to blast sets, not the blaster AT.

    I appreciate this level of derision.
  15. I think just about anything paired with /mental is able to. The more aoe's the better of course.
  16. Christ dude, do you have form letters for all new sets?
  17. This just in: Some people like some things that some others don't.

    Nope, no one said they had to, however, toss a dart at a board filled with pics of primals, and there is a better than good chance of hitting one that has a counterpart who has plateaued at the same level of incompetence as their primal. Sure there are outliers, but that does not seem to be the norm.
  19. I am more curious why everyone has to have an praetorian counterpart.

    Actually, I don't care. Just found it amusing.

    Convince me that not having illusion as an option for a dominator primary is worse than having cancer(even the little kind that you just cut off and get a bit of chemo and you are good) and I will concede my statement is a non-sequitur.

    That said, I am not opposed to having illusion for dominators, but I am not suffering by any stretch of the definition.

    You didn't. You stated you have seen free players grief subscribers and are using it as part of your justification to single out a portion of the player base.

    I don't think it is a valid justification.

    If its not for farming solo then take it.


    But i never ever team on mine except the bare minimum to get t3 incarnates which is like one or 2 runs every new power that comes out since i have so many threads from farming and shards from farming too.


    SO DO NOT take it !!!!


    unless you plan on teaming then TAKE it

    so it depends on you does it not?
    Profound.
  24. What is worse than not having illusion?
























    Cancer.

    Just because it is known for being the friendliest and most helpful community doesn't mean everyone is friendly or helpful. People who grief are not limited to free players.
