    yeah ok.
    i be touch of ph33ring people wit da crazy skuls.

    also, cutie divine, do your homework. generally, AS from a dark hits harder than an AS from anything else (because ever since they gave psi resists to everyone, dark is pretty much the least resisted damage type), so the non-critical portion hits harder.

    the only thing dark lacks is a bursty follow-up... hai sharks.
  5. Hoping for a bit of feedback on this.

  6. oh yeah, it has to be in the same .25s time span. that's how often the server ticks.

    Just speculating but its some speculation Im pretty sure of.

    this is true.

    back in the day i remember seeing Renegades forts being so beautifully coordinated as to be able to stack kb in a consistent manner.

    those guys were pretty beast.

    divine, a fire/psi dom would be pretty vicious if played adequately in a kickball.

    i've considered ripping all my stuff out of my ice/psi and putting it into my fire/psi now that i'm not farming much... a well slotted hold + tk thrust + proc'd out subdue = hell of a spike + disruption toon.

    also, get wrecked ice blast. guess shakedown didn't have a numbers dude that actually calculated how when blaze scourges + apoc's procs = bitter ice blast = lol, even with therm shields, then proceeded to scream on vent to everyone in the team that ever suggested ice blast over fire or sonic after i12.

    Alright games up, might come here next update if i need to wait once again.
    if you're religious, and you actually studied psychology, you must have failed a lot of courses.

    Need honest replies.
    i'd pick you.
  15. also the retarded/not_retarded ratio in freedom zones is about three times higher than pre-i13.

    stop teaching personal finance to the downies. i dont want more market pvp competition.
  18. it can be played.. if it's a fire/kin corr.

    if you're talking about a troller, lol, good luck there.

    But my next Corruptor is definitely going to be a Therm.

    Thanks!!
    if you're doing that, drop ice shield for snowstorm.
    a -fly is pretty much mandatory in pvp, at least freedom-side with all teh downie fliers.

    fury is also trash with DR on damage.

    go run a match with DR off and look at how damage climbs on a lolmelee duel. [i rolled my fire/sr in i13 just to wreck ice/ss tankers].

    i disagree.

    that taunt kept the therm from healing on spikes while also letting it get used to being grounded so that the therm wouldn't run around in spirals after being called for a spike and webbed...
    with the sonic also in the lineup, the whole idea was to take out support and let the core spikers do the work (remember back then UJL had issues with having overly defensive players)... worked well when it did. the issue really was that most teams were not too good at tabbing through 2 sets of mastermind pets, so bringing that brute meant we lost a mastermind which generally provided better disruption (ie you on psn or bee's TA).

    this was also prior to arbegla joining the team on his beast trapper, me switching to fort/storm, syph taking over sonic duties, and nicor replacing rokur on therm (sidenote: i believe that was our best lineup), so we ran disruption a bit differently than towards the end.

    PvP Brute

    yup, even pre-i13, you brought a brute to a match in the ladder and it was just gonna get ignored.

    unless his name was gus, then you were gonna have a therm webbed and taunted for the whole match.

    you also play a dark/cold. which pretty much requires one the longest periods of attrition in the game when it comes to dueling (i can't count how many duels i've been in when i get the first kill in the 8th minute). mako makes a bit more sense then.

    it also comes down to what you're fighting. i get a lot of downies e-raged very very often, and since they mostly play regins, SRs, bad tanks and so on, the to-hit and acc bonus from focused acc is VERY much worth it. i also spam life drain more than most other dark/cold's i've seen play.

    also, on a heavy zone build though, like my fire/cold, and this sonic/cold (i assume), you really really want maximum mobility and maximum acc to tear through downie-land.

    but a drawback: if you have phase, dueling therms is auto-lose. i don't do it on my colds.
