_Chin_

Yay, someone slipped past GGs net and defected to Onion...welcome to the place i've happily called home for the last 2.5yrs.

p.s If you can smuggle a message through the tunnel you constructed, maybe we could steal...sorry "borrow" some more players

Only one more lvl till I get Unstoppable...not that i'll need it with this team, the only time i've come close to dying is against them damn Fir Bolgs...they were +2s mind.

I think I might up my rep for the next session, we seem to be breezing through really easy at the moment...so might push the limit a little and see how we fair.

If you don't get to Kelly Nemmers by Thursday, Saxtus...we'll just plough through the last part of Gordon and Skipper till we're sync'd again, that way there's no pressure for you to catch up.

Cya Thursday.

No headache today, so everything should be going ahead as normal....cya all at about 7 peeps.

I'm relatively new to Tanking, got a Inv/Fire at lvl30 at the mo. But I do tend to herd most groups....not for the blaster, but for my own needs...I just find it easier to control the aggro when i've got the best part of a spawn trapped in my taunt aura, leaving me free to target and taunt anything thats broken off from the group and causing trouble to my team mates.
On the plus side... the regular team i'm with is very AoE heavy, so the tight groups make the 'Arresting' easier.

I'm not one of those people who say you must herd everything all the time, everytime. I try never to take more than a spawns worth...and in some cases the mobs are already tight, even better when they're melee heavy...they always come to you.

I'm still learning the Tanking ways...but its some of the best fun i've had on any toon.

Yup...another great session, Nightmarer suggested that if we're not ready for either Manticore or Kate Tfs next Sunday, we could run the 1st respec.

If we do run it tho, would have to make a little later as I out Saturday night and will more than likely be hungover...also some friends might be round, I'll let you all know nearer the time whats good for me.

Cya all Tuesday.

Is 13:00BST ok with you Saxtus...we could still make it later if you wanted more time for the Mothership Raid, either way i'll get on for then and see whats happening.

Yup awesome work...great Tf too, altho...Dr. Aeon is now my new favourite character

Would certainly be intresting, altho I wouldn't want to be the first one facing Quantum Ghost Widow

Thats cool with me....we'll see what the general thought is tho.

heh...my Dudes a gangrel too, tho he don't look like the wrestler I even started it up today when the servers were down, yeah its buggy....but you're a Vampire...a VAMPIRE!!!! how cool is that.

I may be a little early....but i'm by States already

Never done this Tf before, do we require Shivs and Nukes?...can definetly get some Shivs, Nukes may be harder to come by.

Gratz Cheer, i've teamed with you a couple of times over the last few days (Red Osprey TA Def)....good luck with the Kheld, you'll enjoy it.

I've got it too...although never got all the way through it, 1st time got to Chinatown then brought this and never went back...started it again a few months ago and got to Downtown, then never played it again.

Love it, but some reason never finished it...go figure, i'll do it one day

Sorry about last night, feel a lot better now....must of just needed a decent nights sleep. Regarding the Hess Tf, did you wanna start it at 15:00BST then....that should give you plenty of time on the STF Nightmarer, Hess should only take about 1.5/2hrs to do...its a really quick one, plus I got a plan to finish the last mission nice and quickly without having to fight all the way to the top of the robot.

If you need the Tf to start later, lemme know and we'll all arrange a time together.

What RobotClaw is actually trying to say is...."Can I have your Stuff"

My TA should be lvl45 by then, its only 1.5bars away from it....so would prefer to use that toon if possible, but the other toons are still avalible if needed.

Sorry guys and gals, i'm gunna have to pull out of tonights teaming...had a headache all day and was hoping that it would pass, unfortunitly its still with me so will grab an early night and meet up again Tuesday.

Feel free to carry on without me and use Jay as Tank....he's been dying to do that since he got Invincible

Sorry once again people, but if you all fancy it....wanna run Hess Tf Sunday 02/09 at 13:00BST?

Shame to see you go mate, but glad to have met you and always been a pleasure teaming. As i've already said, I'm thinking of starting up LotRO...this will still be my main game for now, but probably won't play so much for a bit...having no Xbox for a couple of week and playing this solidly has left me pretty burnt out and with my Globals starting to decrease, be it leaving or over with the yanks...i'm starting to depend on PuGs for my pleasures.

I'll be in contact with you when I pick up LotRO...and i'm not being a damn hobbit.

My TA/A is currently sat at lvl43 and have all the TA powers (except Entangling and Poison Gas Arrows) but only have 4 Archery attacks (Snap, Aimed, Blazing and RoA). Never felt the need to take any more from the Archery, as I don't see myself there to do damage...but can add to it with what I got.

Only taking a few secondary powers has allowed me to grab everything I wanted from the power pools: Leadership, Fitness, Flight and Hasten.

Went with Power Mastery for PBU for the same reasons as Miss_Chief and with 3 more power picks to go, will probably grab: Poison Gas Arrow, Temp Invuln and either Stunning Shot or Entangling Arrow.

Its an immensely fun set to play, but definetly makes the most out a well formed team...which can be hard sometimes.

Cool, thank you for the replies...leaning towards /Rad for the AoEs and mushroom clouds

I'll be honest, i've no idea on how to slot Kinetics...its something i've never got round to using, to me the /Rad looks fine...but thats where you lot come in

Looking to team as much as possible on this build, is there anything I could change. Any advice is welcomed.

I'm gunna throw my hat in and suggest Stone Melee, its and extremely high damaging set with a couple of good tools to boot. The only problem is its a little End heavy and long(ish) recharge times, which /Elec should help...with the likes of Lightning Reflexes and Power Sink.

The 4 main melee ST attacks (Stone Fist, Stone Mallet, Heavy Mallet and Seismic Smash) all carry a secondary effect, either Stuns or Knockback/up. They also string together to make a high damaging ST set, plus Seismic Smash is also a Mag 4 hold...which should hold a boss in one application, as well as being your highest damaging power. You have a ranged attack in Hurl Boulder which is good for runners and flying foes, altho I don't currently have it.
Build Up is, well its just build up....click it for some extra smash factor. Then you get 2 AoEs, the first 'Fault' is the better of the two, because its Knock Up and carries a stun factor...only problem is that it carries no damage, but has a quicker animation time. Tremor is your only AoE damage that you'll get and it hits for about the same damage as Stone Fist, it also does knockback.

General tactics I use for my SM/Invuln is to jump into the first mob and hit Fault, then smash away with the ST attacks with Fault again once its charged...you get too hit them and they get thrown all over the place.

I personally love it and would give it a try if you're looking for something with a little SMASH factor to it.

Count me in then, we'll decide on the night which toon you'd prefer...will aim to get my TA to 45 as well, to give another option.

Hiya, looking to roll a Kinetic fender and trying to work out what blast set to choose. Kinda narrowed it down to: Dark, Energy, Psi and Rad, purely because they are the sets i've not really tried yet...i'm open to the possibilty of Sonic too as not had much experience with it, altho its currently on my Corr.

Because of Kin/ its looking to be a teaming build, but would like something with decent DPS to be able to solo when needed.

Whats peoples thoughts and suggestions.

Just to throw a spanner in the works and simply because people have already mentioned Thugs/Mercs, I'm going to suggest.....Bots of course, I currently have a lvl35 Bots MM and its an absolute blast to play. Protector Bots are awesome...they bubble you and your pets, they heal your pets, they cast their own Seeker Drones and on top of all that, they also attack. Then you get the Assault Bot...once you get the last upgrade, this thing becomes nothing more than a walking tower of destruction...missiles and burn patches everywhere.

But more importantly, I believe that its the secondary that crafts the type of MM that you'll become.

I'd love to join this, only problem is....all i got avalible is a MA/Rgn scrapper or a Fire/Fire Tanker, I do have a TA/A Def sat at lvl43 that I could try to get lvl45 with by then.

I'm game with any choice you like, but understand if i'm not needed because of the AT choices.
