    MA/Inv is good?

    Lets not spread misinformation. They're practically the same, only you're Hovering/Flying.

    Yeah, but you like to use Shadow Maul and Shadow Punch.

    It gets expensive. Be sure you have your financial situation squared away before you do so!

    Then I hope you're amused-as-can-be by little info that interview gave us.

    I emphasized IF because I don't know your playstyle.

  8. I'm thankful for the awesome community! So thankful actually, that I buy 30 day game-time cards and PM codes to folks that I really appreciate posting on here. They really make the community as a whole better and deserve a little reward!

    Looks good to me! I'd get Char over Ring of Fire, because that will allow you to shut down enemies such as Malta Sappers, stack an extra 3 mag on bosses to help out any team mates that are also using Holds, or even help out with the Green Mitos in the LGTF.

    If you're going to be jumping into groups of enemies, I don't think an Invuln needs to have a Kismet 6% in the build. You'll get more than enough ToHit from Invincibility. You could move that slot over to Resist Physical Damage and three-slot an Aegis to improve your Fire/Cold Defense by 3.125% or just give yourself a slight amount (1.25%) of Energy/Negative Energy Defense.

  14. If Sam giving you purples is starting fires, perhaps someone else should be getting the purples.

    Glad you liked the tracks btw
    I have to thank you for doing those tracks. They are perfect for the game! Thank you!

    I've never really messed around with the DB editor. Would it be easy for me to add the Rare and Very Rare Alpha boosts after the next update? Or am I going to break stuff?

    Sam, I am one of the last people that needs an extra boost in Inf. Was my post not silly enough?

    The first thing is: If you ever play lower level content I'd move Hasten closer to Dull Pain and Siphon Life and definitely get Soul Drain at level 26 instead of waiting until level 32.

    Four slotting Hecatombs seems like such a huge waste of the set bonuses. The bonuses before it being 5 slotted are nice, but it's the 10% Recharge from the purple sets that allow you to do ridiculous things. I don't think your build has perma-Dull Pain (and thus perma-HP capped), but that extra 10% would get you much closer. The Spiritual Alpha boosts would also help in that respect (amongst other things), but it looks like you prefer a different Alpha.

    I'd lose some Fire/Cold Defense in favor of getting Smashing/Lethal Defense up to the softcap.

    And you can look sooooooo gooooood while doing so! Hahah.
  20. Yes, yes, and hell yes!

    Only 9 or so days until I get the 81 Veteran Badge! The 84 Veteran Badge is LE AWESOME~

    I tried changing the Villains Login music and it isn't working. Can only get the Heroes Login music changed, and the Villain music is my favorite of the two that OminousVoice has made! Doh.
  22. That punk has been giving you the purples instead of me? Grrrrr. Grrrrr.

    Yeah, no kidding.

    If I wanted to have a survivability chain, I could probably just use Siphon Life over and over again with the Very Rare.

    Sorry for the threadjack, but I have a related question!

    So... it is possible for me to do that attack chain gapless with 60% global Recharge, Hasten, and the Uncommon Alpha boost. Smite is at 74% Recharge, Siphon Life at 41%, and Midnight Grasp at 80%. That Alpha boost helps out a lot, so I am wondering if for Issue 19.5 with the Rare and Very Rare boosts, will we be able to do a better DPS chain? Perhaps Siphon Life > Midnight Grasp ad nauseum?
