    Crab Tank

    I'll leave you a build here to give you an idea of how I made my "Tank" Crab. I didn't bother taking any taunts (Didn't have room) but I built for survivability and the ability to put out some hurt in melee. I used lower level enhancements so I can keep my bonuses down to level 30. I made some different choices than you, like focusing on keeping my pets up as often as possible, but this might offer you a few ideas for your build.

I just wish there were more places like the Atrium in other neighborhoods.

    However, there are a couple of places that were not mentioned that I thought would be nice to add.

    Kings Row - Northeast from the Police Station is a rooftop with a smoke stack and water tower. Next to it on the roof is a couch and a refrigerator

    Steel Canyon - University and Midnighter's Club. It's too bad there really isn't any other place there as it's such a great zone.
    The little shopping area by Mirror Spirit in Faultline has a pretty cool Italian restaurant that I like to use as a set piece from time to time. It's too bad the chairs on the patio are too small to actually sit on.
  4. That does look a bit better. My eyes are probably just worse than yours, heh. Sorry, didn't want to derail your thread. I'll keep an eye out for cool places to add to this list.
  5. This is a rather cool list you got going on, but I just thought I should point out that the red text is almost impossible for me to read on the default hero skin.

    Electric Armor? Willpower? Widows? Any build with positional defense (excluding a few Mind Control attacks). Being able to stand up to Psy isn't that big of a deal, and doesn't really place DA above the others. Not that it's the worst armor set in the game, but I wouldn't place it higher than the middle of the pack.

    Oh man. This is the best thing I've ever heard.
  8. Flower Knight and Coyote for the Phalanx.

    That is, of course, unless I'm horribly mistaken. I'm pretty sure I'm not, but you never know and all.
    Sorry, that's incorrect. You're even going to be charged for a set that is only cobbled together of existing powers and can only be used on a single AT now.
  10. Think my liquid assets would be in the middle of D somewhere.
  11. Adding another question onto this in lieu of opening a new thread.

    If you place your reward tokens in the VIP only slots, do you still keep those costumes (Celestial and the Fire and Ice sets) after you drop back to premium?

    There used to be an auto-reply when you were in any fullscreen UI like the tailor or enhancement screen. I think there was some kind of bug where it spammed chat or something so the feature was removed.
  13. People still allow themselves to see ads on these things?
  14. People who were going to leave are going to leave regardless. Releasing rushed, incomplete, and unbalanced content would just make people dissatisfied with the game, not make them want to stay.
  15. I foresee a bunch of Regen Brutes being made when i21 launches, and then seeing them disappear into obscurity as people return to their WP Brutes.
  16. I don't know what I'm going to do. All my characters live in an apartment building in GC. My solo SG is named Gemini Suites, and I'm not about to give up the hard work I've put into getting that prestige to waste by renaming it.
  17. Now if only pet AI wasn't still borked to all hell.

I know people will complain that they want the reward without running the end-game trial, but if you make the end-game trial rewards available without ever running the end-game trials, then they aren't really rewards.

    I like that there are things in the game that you can't have at level 1.
    This pretty much sums up my thoughts. I enjoy the trials, and I only run a couple of them a week. I don't have T4 powers in all my Incarnate slots yet, but I will be able to at some point. Even with just a small amount of merits saved up, I was able to get most of the costume stuff that I actually wanted to use right away. I don't need to unlock every single part of it right this moment, and I like that I have some costume stuff to work towards and have people to run trials with to get them.
  19. Step 1: Roll a character
    Step 2: Get to level 50
    Step 3: Join a trial

    These things are not like other games where you need a specialized build or exact powers to run them.
  20. With all the other auras and glowing entanglement and orbital laser stuff going on, you can't exactly pick out the target. The complete and utter reliance on massive heals for this trial turns me off of it, which is a shame because it is actually a fun trial.
  21. Please take it elsewhere, SuperJe. This thread isn't about whatever combo you find to be entertaining. And, as stated, its original purpose is already null.

    A possible idea.

    Looks like you guys filled up before I noticed this. Let me know if you wind up needing an alternate.
  23. I already have two level fifty debuffers. I never could stand the constant rebuffing, though, so I figure this is as good a time as any to try again.
