Twisted Toon

There would have been quite a few upset NA people if this thread hadn't made the migration.

you do realize, I hope, that most Defender primaries have some form of pro-active Mez mitigation; Such as holds ans stuns. I've known people to use Howling Twilight while they were solo, just to stun the group. Despite it being the best rez in the game.

Storm is chock full of Mitigation with half the powers dealing knock-back (Caveat: intelligence and common sense should be used while playing with these powers).

Dark Maisma reduces the foe's chances of hitting you to practically nil. Very nice mitigation there.

Mez Protection isn't the only Mez mitigation in the game. Its just the most commonly recognized.

Um...Are you sure you know what you're agreeing to?

<Darth Vader> I find his lack of grammar disturbing. </Darth Vader>

I blame the "No student left behind" ideal and Parents...and maybe bleeding heart teachers that don't want to hurt the "delicate ego" of children by actually failing them if they <gasp> fail!

Yes, that is a pet peeve of mine. I believe that people should have the opportunity to suffer the consequences of their actions, good or bad.

I agree. He is a genius.

I'm sure he pulled something withholding the other 72 items on the list of snappy responses to "Carl" as well.

I could do well with a couple of Mechs with a couple of ArrowIVs apiece and a fast spotter (I'm talking 45 tons of engine and jumpjets with a TAG system and small laser). I could do fairly well, I think.

I can do that for you.

I did that with a 100 ton mech once, in MW3 (I think). Said hello to a Mech from over 1.2 KMs away. I had the targeting reticule, but he wasn't even on the radar. By the time he got to where I could actually see the Mech, He fell over. Never played MW over the internet though.

I do, on my Blaster.
Which is downgraded to a Lt, that can be taken out fairly quickly relative to a boss.

Also a Lt on heroic solo.

more of the same.

Obviously, I'm doing somethign wrong then, only takes me one Breakfree to take out a group or two of Rikti on Heroic while solo (ie: 0/x1)

Same goes for the other ATs. They just need tactics (not the power)

I think you should try to gain more reading comprehension then.

Gotta love a Super Hot Math Chick

No, that would interfere with the whole affirmative action ideal. disable anyone from using slurs against anyone other than white men.

I translated it as "You're intentionally playing in a more challenging manner." rather than "You're doing it wrong."

There is no right or wrong (other than exploits) way to play this game. There is just easier or more challenging. Sometimes, character concepts dictate a more challenging method of play. I have several like that.

How about deities?

I like the last one the best. More villains need to use Verisimilitude and Obfuscate.

Like, OMG! That totally killed some brain cells, ok? I was like. OMG! There goes another one! This is, like, SO totally bad. I can't believe they're, like, totally dieing!

By the way, like, can I borrow that top?

Yet, even my Blaster's don't very many problems with Yellow Ink-men. In fact, I have more problems from the Blue and Red Ink-men than I do Yellow. Stupid Siphon Speed and Energy Melee.

Have you promoted that programmer to your second in command?

Maybe gave him a nice bonus?

How about a lollipop and a cup of cocoa?

That guy really does deserve some congratulations.

And you do too, BaB, for being the kind of guy you are.

Which a Warshade can quite easily out do with a single power; Sunless Mire. Which still puts the Warshade beyond the Blaster, damage wise.

I was just pointing out that a human-form Kheldian wasn't as "weak" as some were saying. The human-form has the potential to surpass Most of the other ATs, but in order to do that they would need a team.

I do agree that the form change mechanic is a tad clunky. Which is probably why I only have the Dwarf-form slotted as a back-up for the Tank. The Human-form has done a remarkable job of keeping up with the Blasters and Scrappers.

I do have a Peacebringer that is tri-form and I've used all three forms in battle before. That took a lot of attention and rapid button pushing. I found it easier, if a tad slower, to just fight in human-form with that one too. Or, start out in Nova then go human at some point during a prolonged fight.

So, what was the point I was making again? I forgot...

Blasters can't get +damage, +Damage Resistance to all types, and +Mez protection, just for having other team mates on the team either. That is where the Kheldian's true strength is.

With the team that my Warshade routinely runs with, he has +20% Damage resistance to everything, and has +80% damage. He doesn't need to change forms to deal decent damage or to be able to take it.

My biggest complaint with the Warshade is the fact that I need a living opponent near me to rez. They don't normally last that long with that team.

Remember, the Blue side was intended more for teaming than solo play. The Kheldians are a very team oriented AT.

Isn't sister Flame the Princess of Pyrotechnics?

I would have thought it played more like an Offensive Defender (or an Offender).

Of course, with no other outside buffs and an appropriate team composition, a Kheldian, in human form, can out damage a Blaster, almost match a Tank in Resistance, and have some limited Mez protection.

I'm not sure a VEAT can do that.

That's what I use.

Its Steele Magnolia?
