There are other high damage attacks other than AS that can be used specifically as opening attacks on TG. Controllers are after all extremely squishy
[/ QUOTE ]
I not see why people have to reffer to me. Its the storm set not the TG set. Is not like i invented the storm set or something. Controllers are squishy but hard to touch and get...that u know more than enough
[/ QUOTE ]
you use it better than most we come across in the PVP zonesIts a two edged sword really, you get the kudos of being a crown jewel of a target

damn stalkeri w1ll wpnj00 y3t!1 etc
seriously annoying when u are having a fight with a brute slugging it out as a blapper then some stalker just comes along and bam ur dead! if the stalker is on the brutes team then fair enough, but i think a lot of the time solo stalkers just hammer u down. i understand that all is fair in pvp, and i will happily nail heroes in WB to steal codes, i just dont like the whole AS=dead thing when im below 75% hps, this is compounded in pvp zones by the loss of my accolades (which i think sucks tbh, we should keep those regardless of lvl imo). so pls dont think im whining, i freely admit i hate being owned in such a one side fight. guess i can rest easy knowing that in a duel most stalkers wouldnt kill me if we could fight at 50(teeeerrrrash!!!1)

I nearly always team with a stalker, being a big glowing target, haveing a stalker in tow is an awesome strategy, I distract, he assassinates you, how can you go wrong? -
[ QUOTE ]
Actually, why does everyone seem to have an obsession with killing Plight? During the last BB raid, everyone on my teamspeak was shouting "It's Plight Trawler! Kill him! Kill plight trawler!" every time he appeared :P
[/ QUOTE ]
Its just funThere is a buzz you get from downing certain players, Plight, Talin, Powernova, all are like getting 10 kills of someone else
-
There is nothing more satisfying than getting your new character who isnt all slotted out on SOs to take down the 50s
I managed to down quite a few in BB today and I 1 shotted Powernova twice in 2 mins, it was like Christmas
-
Villains can also now obtain Malta sapper guns (and Void guns) as temp powers which will make short work of a lot of hurricanes

Holds...
[/ QUOTE ]
Erm yes they would certainly help, but i need to wait for the level cap to be raised to pick up a hold in the epics (that's assuming the epics will be similar to CoH ones).
[/ QUOTE ]
To help you out....u need use one of the temp powers in Sirens call called Stun grenade...otherwise u need to team with a holder or just simply forget it...prolly using a holder in your team is the best chance u ll get shutting down hurricane. Thats pretty much all you can do
unless of course you can grab the energy set which is awsome and is not affected by hurricane knockback. remember also its not enough to get inside hurricane u also need to lay a hit Good luck in trying
[/ QUOTE ]
couple of yellows and and my nrg/inv put you down more than onceJust built a Spine/NRG stalker with anti-fly for those hoverers (you know who you are lol) and entropy sheild to get through hurricane and resists debuffs
-
[ QUOTE ]
How long will it take roughly? Gotta leave for work at 9.15pm, but happy to lend myself to the carnage for a while.
[/ QUOTE ]
no set time limit as far as I am concerned, just a good old fashioned kill fest -
Not a stalker I know but for others interested in getting through hurricane my INV brute doesnt even notice it
*edit* yeah it looks like entropy should be able to negate it too -

Ok, I dont like to moan, but I do it anyway. I think PvP against heroes and villains is hero biast. I fight with my lvl 16 dark/dark brute and fighting is just stupid. Heroes use holds, stuns, knock downs etc, and even with the combined power of several villains we cant do jack [censored]. I stock myself up with breaks and heals and still its impossible. Now, I admit that I havnt built my char around pvp, but surely EVERYONE should have a chance to fight?
I don't know, I've only ever seen 2 heroes be defeated, and thats with plenty of masterminds. I hope im not the only one who feels like this, but something feels very unfair.
[/ QUOTE ]
I have to admit there does seem to be alot of moaning from villains lately about heroes using there powers to there best ability..one example is a certain stalker who petitioned me for what he called 'abuse of my AOE's'.
Now correct me if i'm wrong but cryptic gave us those powers to use and we should not have to ask if we can use a power on a villain first .. its a pvp zone .. suck it up or don't go there.

lol, there are people who will bug the hell out of all of us from time to time, Anyas flight and anti-fly is evil IMO as are accursed NRG and fire Blasters with anti toggleand we all know about hurricane but still it is a pvp zone. Once Villains are au fait with their abilities, specced to pvp and slotted fully the tide will turn as indeed it already does when you can get a good team together.
Main problem imo is the lack of use at the moment, I just wish there were more people in there, if one side has more than the other I usually swap over and try to get more together.
oh and everyone to bloody bay on tuesday at 7.30 for some mass carnage on defiant -
I soloed most of my way to 30 as I tended to die in the lower lvl teams but since hooking up with teams in the 30s when everone has a decent amount of powers and knows how to use them is pure joy and the xp goes through the roof
-
Mines slightly different, I took barrage early for the rage, stun for PVP and only just got dull pain at 32 energy transfer sounded scary, I dont like giving up hit points
(what can I say, I didnt like my tank on COH and deleted him at lvl 22 so not really played these powersets
)
He seems to be doing quite well for himself and rarely dies -

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
let forth the weapon known as talin le thaed!
[/ QUOTE ]
Two quick shots and he will be face down again before you can even taunt me -
hmm it seems the unfair tp foe topic has been deleted

[ QUOTE ]
Does this mean that tping a foe into a drone is now a legitimate PvP tactic?
[/ QUOTE ]
I beleive it is 'frowned upon'
That said I now use arbiters as a taxi to get back to my base -
[ QUOTE ]
Add another room for the 2nd IoP?
(i'm 99% sure i'm talking rubbish, i'm still big n00b in this base stuff)
[/ QUOTE ]
you may need to upgrade the plot which costs money -
I have been waiting for someone to post something for another BB invasion as COV is starting to get some quite high lvl characters now and I quite enjoyed the last one. Sadly no one has posted anything so will do so myself
How about tuesday 22nd at 7.30 and can someone post something on the hero side -
[ QUOTE ]
Yeah, she was a bit too easy, she hit me once, then the second hold of mine got her and kept her mezzed through the entire fight. She's the only thing I've fought this week I've done well against, having a bit of a rough one is my wolf, got his first debt badge yesterday, had 10 deaths this week, so figure that was most of it
[/ QUOTE ]
Hmm I fought her with another Brute and a Mastermind, the brute went down mainly as we didnt know she had arrived and was cleaning the room from the straglers, then it took a while for me and the MM to break her down, I would ahve died if the brute we were fighting on didnt keep passing me inspThat said she was a hero status now as opposed to an elite boss.
-
I like the PVP zones a lot, I mostly know the people in there but we are all human and want to win and will get annoyed from time to time, its just nature
I dont take it (too) seriously but I do enjoy it. My new sport is seeing how many people I can 1 shot (as my brute) on the steps of the villain base
-
Fighting against heroes is easy enough with the right team, we invaded the hero base the other day when killing time before we started a SF.
Also I had a one on one with Hammerfall in Sirens a couple of weeks back at lvl 26 with no insp use to check out the build. With rage growing I was causing more damage with each blow and was starting to edge ahead untill my stamina died and he squished meOnce villains have respective slots and enhance (not that hard to get too) there shouldnt really be any difference. I think the balance isnt bad personally
-
NRG/INV is working well for me, I have never died solo yet and only twice in teams.
-
That sucks big time, Im glad that I hated the graphics on EA
-
Well me, Plight and a bunch of others gave him the smack down today, remarkably easy given the difficuly we had with him on beta
Got the badge now, better go and find out where to use it now
BTW how do you get the contact?
*edit* I found this on the US boards
Crimson Revenant - Special Unlock Contact, Acquire "Hammer Down" from defeating Ghost of scrapyard Giant Monster in Sharkhead to unlock
Hes in Nerva and you can find him here
Go to the crey building in Nerva, it's the building with the Tech and Science Quartermasters.
Stand with you back to the sign, you will be facing a TsingGuns building. Jump to the first level of the roof, it's got two levels. Walk around to the north side of the building and you will see him standing on a platform. His name is Crimson Revenant, he is at .. -1.5 107.9 6646.2. -
Note to base builders, the IOP stand actually counts as an IOP so the vault must be large enough to accomodate 2 IOPs. That said you dont (didnt in beta) need an IOP stand to place an IOP
oh and im up for respec -
I can tank him well enough, just cant bloody injure him fast enough and cant get people together when i find him. If anyones building a scrapyard team count me in

duo'd him? Sweet. Wonder who will be the first to solo him?
[/ QUOTE ]we weren't the first to duo him, though with Invincibility running and all those minions i was tanking him comfortably until Bodybag showed up to debuff him so we could get the kill.

bah, you didnt wait for me
