    Earth Assault

    Might be the perfect set for those that like to stand in front of each other and mash buttons, aka fite klubers

    Psi Tank

    I hope you already have the M.Mayhem map on that toon because they put a timer on it a few issues back.
  3. I'm guessing you're a WP tank and RttC gets detoggled every time you get mezzed?

    There is nothing you can do to stop it. Its the new mez system. There is no more mez protection in PvP. Any form of mez protection gets turned into mez resistance now. I've seen a lot of WP tanks drop RttC from their build because of it.

    EDIT: I forgot to add that any type of toggle that effects another player (rttc has a tohit debuff for example) will get turned off due to the mez system changes. Any toggle that doesn't effect other players stays toggled, but the effects of the power are suppressed until the duration of the mez is over (usually only a couple of seconds)
  4. I actually just noticed that yesterday and It's about damn time. Those turrets would tear my squshies apart. The first heavy nerf was welcome, this second nerf is win.

    I went into rv

    They fixed the knockout blow kb bug when i16 hit live. I haven t actually tested it yet but kob shouldn't effect players without kb protection outside of their shields/acro anymore.
  6. I'm more of a super jump guy myself, but I noticed that awhile ago when I used the raptor pack and cj together. Another widly unknown fact is that the jump pack you get from the good vs bad pack actually boosts flight speed.
  7. I noticed something else as i looked to see if they moved the dummies. There is a shooting range with targets that you can click on as a target. Thing is you cant actually attack them. Is that new? Never noticed it before.
  8. I just changed my power colors and went to try them out on the attack dummies in the vanguard base and I noticed they weren't there any more. They were there last time I checked in open beta.

    Did they remove them for a reason? I didn't see anything about it in the patch notes.
  9. Mids is back! That icon was starting to look like a sad panda.

    Great job st0ney and thanks for all the hard work.

    Just pick out the juicy bits, that's what I do. The totals at the end would have been enough to show how badly they got rek'd. Nice vid though.

    Elec/Kin

    You know, maybe its time to slot up that level 50 kin/elec def I have sitting on the shelf. Might be fun.
  12. I think this would be a awesome idea to perk up dead zones like boomtown, dark astoria and creys folly.
  13. With i16 open beta, Aion open beta and the new super hero MMO all popping off at once its no wonder why the servers arent in the yellow. Give some time for the new shiny to wear off and they'll be back.

    Freedom Lag

    Personally I hardly ever get any lag in RV. I do hear a lot of people complain about it in bc but I figured it must be their comp or connection.

    i16 zone changes

    So, has anyone confirmed if this is a bug or WAI? Ran a search and this was the only post that I found on the topic.

    Does it effect the level requirement of the zone or just the powers? If its only the powers those 33 IO'd builds will be fine.

    But as I wrote this it occurred to me that you can get to the tailor in Pocket D very quick and at low level paying for a change isn't expensive.
    I don't think PD is a viable option. If I remember correctly you cant use the PD teleporter until you reach level 5.
  17. As a hero all you have to do in i16 is hop over to RWZ for a quick fix.

    Villains, well...

    Devs hate villains?

The point I am making is that Silit should not be promoting a greif squad to pick on certain players that annoy him. You wouldn't like it if the tables were turned, for example everytime you want to do a TF there was someway that another player that for some reason it annoyed could actively disrupt it. I know there isn't but my point is the same.
    Yeah I guess you're right. There is no way for a fite klubber to avoid being ganked since they have to duel in zone. Too bad there isn't a place to go where they control the environment. A place where they couldn't be bothered by FCP, or anyone else for that matter. A place where you can choose your own map, maybe even set your own rules.

    Oh wait...

    You really can't be blamed for that, though. After all, you are typing with hooves and not thumbed hands - and it must be pretty hard to see the screen with your neck being 15 feet above your desk.
    One of the few times I actually laughed out loud from a forum post. 10 points for you sir.
  20. Donna, it's funny you mentioned the EULA. The EULA is a set of rules correct? Rules set by the developers of this game to protect themselves and other players. Try reporting one of the FC police for interrupting a FC duel and see what happens. Here, I'll save you the time... nothing at all. They arent doing anything wrong and there are no rules against it. They choose to engage other players in a zone where it warns you that you can and will be attacked at any given moment.

    Its been said before, but I'll say it again... arena is the place for 1vs1. They even have the option to let people watch so the rest of the fite klubbers don't feel left out.

    Why should they have to go to arena you ask? You say you pay $15 to play the game the way you want? So do I, and I follow the rules the devs implemented. I can and will kill anyone in the zone. If you say I shouldn't because its wrong, I say you shouldn't expect not to get attacked in a zone where it clearly states you will when you enter.

    You also mentioned fun. Fun is a subjective term. It seems like you have fun doing the fite klub thing. Personally I don't find it fun following some made up rules that go against the rules that are posted right in your face every time you enter a pvp zone. I have fun slaughtering everything in my path, or die trying. Asking me to follow a certain set of made up rules and allow a group of people to go unharmed because of a imaginary shield of protection gets in the way of my fun.

    So a fite klubbers fun is more important then mine? Why cant said fite klubber go to the arena and avoid all the drama? Most likely because there is nobody around to stroke their ego when their uber regin beats a gimp brute.

    Nobody owes anyone anything in a pvp zone. Its kill or be killed. You fite klubbers can go around following your made up pvp zone rules if you wish, but don't get mad when someone else like the FC Police want to follow their own set of made up rules.
  21. Inv/ss is a much better tank for RV. Although my fire/ss is pretty good and deals slightly more damage with FE, inv/ss can take way more abuse. Only issue with inv/ss is that its a really tight build.

    Def vs. Res

    Def was good with elusivity, just too good. But instead of balance they nerfed it into the ground.
  23. If its the person I'm thinking of that frequents sirens call on freedom server (usually has darth or sith somewhere in his name), he actually has 4 accounts. It takes a special kind of person to have to rely on 4 accounts to pvp suscessfully.
