Hang in there! Like others have already said, the first trimester is usually difficult for many. Don't worry about missing out on play time. Real life concerns will always trump game ones. Everyone here is supportive and happy for you, and we look forward to the day you can post pics of your little one
I know how it is as a teacher. I'm one too ^_^
However, not for little ones. I teach sulky teenagers.
Oh, and Cancer,
I...just....you...i mean....really?
1. There are only 2 appropriate uses for an ellipsis (...). One for the omission of text from a direct quotation from text and the other to indicate the continuation of a sequence in a list. Ellipsis DO NOT function as a placeholder to indicate your failures to say things between your phrases.
2. "Just" is an adverb meant to modify a verb or adjective. When used in a sentence, it should go before the word it modifies, otherwise its use is vague. Your quotation lacks any sort of verb or adjective at all. Therefore, not only is your use of "just" vague, but it is also incorrect.
3. "I" should always be capitalized.
4. Using the phrase "I mean" implies that you intend to clarify the expression of an idea given before the phrase. Your first assertion of "I just you", with all of its implications, is not clarified by the rhetorical question "really" since it merely states a prior action with the intent of a reminder rather than challenge the logic of a particular course of action.
5. We all have lives in the professional and academic world. However, we are under no obligation to bring the rigors and limitations of that world into our communication with each other in a forum meant to discuss a topic of our leisure. I don't play grammar police here because I understand that any syntax (as long as it is coherent) is appropriate for this audience. Sidhe's profession does carry a great deal of responsibility with high expectations from her community. If she choses to relax from her professional expectations here, who are we to judge? She's probably a grammar nazi in her own classroom (not that I would know anything about that).
In other words:

Quote:no worries. Thanks for even doing this at all. It is a fun activity for everyone and has a nice reward. I'm sure everyone would've been just as happy if you had not offered to give away the money.*sigh* it's been a long day.
To all - forgive me for mispellings or if I have inadverdently missed your guess. I will ensure that you all get a fair chance and will go over this thread a few times and finalize the list before I announce the winner.
Happy ebiling -

very fun project btw -
I've learned bits n pieces of languages over the years but never stuck it out long enough to be able to hold an intelligent conversation in one. The following is the list of languages I can utilize to 1. find out where the bathroom is and 2. say hi, goodbye, sorry, and thank you in.
(in order of speaking ability from decentish to terrible):
Korean
Spanish
Japanese
Latin (2 yrs of lol high school)
Swahili
I just tell people I can only speak English really. The other languages only come out when i'm in the respective country and need to find the ladies room. lol -
I'm not a numbers cruncher so forgive me. But does that mean that even if you cap a mind troller's abilities they would still not match up with a mind/dom?
-
Me and my little mind/kin troller that could has teamed with a number of mind/doms on ITFs before, and I've noticed there's a huge difference in the strength of their powers over mine. Makes me sad, really. I wonder if there's any way to buff the holds/strengths of a mind troller to be able to even hold a candle to the mind/doms.
Bottom line:
Is there any way to build a mind/kin that can match up with the power of a mind/dom? -
I've done a tour and it's great!
I thought the slow fields were bugged. Guess they fixed it. I'll have to go back to my base and re-add the pools. >.> -
numi's my fav tf. but that's my sister's b-day. might not be able to make it. we'll see
-
I'm always willing to help out if i have time.
can bring:
emp/archer fender
rad/rad fender
fire/fire blast
mind/kin troller
dark/dark fender -
Quote:thanks! great advice! I'll keep working on it.Ice Storm does Blaster level damage, so get some damage enhancements in there. Its going to be a star performing damage power on an all Defender team, and the main benefactor of any +Recharge you build up on a FF/Ice.
Same with Repulsion Bomb - slot that for damage rather than stun.
Bitter Ice Blast is your heaviest damage ST attack - replace what youve got in there with 5 pieces of Decimation to get a good damage slotting and keep the 6.25% recharge bonus.
If you're always going to be running with a couple of Kineticists who'll keep your damage capped ignore this advice.
And replace Manouvers with Insulation Shield. If you ever plan to fight Malta or Carnies, your team will love you for the 86% End Drain resistance, to say nothing of the Ranged and AoE defence that keep Ringnmistress Psi attacks and Titan burn patches off you. You can still slot your LotG +Recharge in there.
But you really should move the slots from PFF to your ally shields and Dispersion Bubble. Give each of them the equivalent of 3 Defence SOs, and you'll really notice the difference.
Quote:In light of this, you have damage mitigation in triplicate! Max out that damage. First, I wouldn't take PFF on a team build if I have a Sonic teammate and another FF teammate. As usual, I suggest a team build and a solo build available at level 10. I highly recommend Assault over Manuvers. Your team is swimming in defense and debuffage. I suggest you take insulation shield even if it only supports the other FF defender.
Good luck. I am extremely biased towards all-defender teams. I see nothing but success for this venture. -
yeah, but i'm making this toon for an all fender regular team. so i was trying to up the dmg a bit
-
was going for dmg n recharge (for the ice). but yeah, I don't know what i'm doing. I don't mind admitting it. It is my first you know.
I figured go for recharge on the ice and dmg since slotting for defense doesn't seem like a reasonable thing. -

Hello all, just rolled a FF/ice fender and loving it. Been playing around with an endgame build. Tell me what you think:

this happened to me too. I bought a huge load of obliterations, thunderstrikes, and positron's blasts (the price was high for a long time, like several months), and suddenly there was a huge crash in price. For months the prices were bottomed out. Not until recently when prices have started to climb again. That stuff was clogging up my slots for a while tho, since I listed high and didn't want to lose all those listing costs.

imma try n solo a bit to get closer in lvl to you guys. but see you all at 6

give the newbs a break. A lot of PUGs are made up of people who haven't been playing long enough to make a group of regular friends. Back when I started, I had maybe 3 globals and ran nothing but PUGs. Failed a truckload of Itfs with people. It's a learning curve. I give props to the OP for chosing to stay with the group even though he realized they were newbs. And major props for not fake dccing towards the end. because you stuck it out and helped, you may have created 2 or 3 future vets.

I started playing the game a year ago with a defender and now I'm nearly done lvling my 3th fender to 50. I love playing all of them though, because the playstyle evolves as you do. My first is an emp, and I went from heal-spamming to endurance buffing to everything buffing. Now I rarely hit the heal other/Absorb pain. It's all about the fort, AB, n auras.
Can't wait to tank stuff on mah soon-to-be lvl50 darkdarkdark once i finish slotting. -
