Wow Ysosrs you must be a bunch of professional snot slinger because you do it with such panache! Who the heck cares! Huntsmen aren't a gimped build in terms of what they can bring to a team. I am a number cruncher at heart but sometimes I sacrifice raw numbers for GASP! WOW! OHH! FUUUUNNNN!! Why don't you spend some time leveling more toons or point that sharp perception at yourself rather than trying to degrade another person's idea of fun and a good time.

aisyna's first paragraph more or less states that Crabs can't take additional pool maneuvers because of critical powers like Fortification, Serum, Suppression, Spiderlings, or Omega Maneuver.

Well, that's not true. Crabs can take additional pool leaderships at the cost of a few of these powers. What really happens is that they choose not to select these powers. Why do they choose not to? Because powers like Serum or Suppression or Spiderlings are better power choices.

Crabs are blasters because they do better aoe damage? "Huntsman" are corruptors because they have no choice but to load up on leadership powers to be even kind of useful?

Crabs are blasterminds, because they can deal excellent aoe damage while being able to survive from substantial layered defenses without needing to load up powerpools to compensate.

What can "Huntsmen" get above and beyond Crabs definitively? One single target debuff on a 45 second timer, 7.5% res to psy from Bane armor, an HP boost that grants them Blaster health, and better melee single target damage.

The "Huntsmen" is an RP charade that's allowed to persist because some players have attached their heart and soul to superficial traits of ATs / powersets and cannot accept that a cool looking costume or nice "thwacky" maces are entirely independent of performance.

I guess you are of the mind that all Spiders should go crab then and forget the Bane branch exists then?

Is this damage nerf in PvP only or in PvE as well?

Hello all you evil masterminds!! This is kind of a tribute and hopefully something helpful for all those MM's out there. This is Master Zaprobo's Robot Binds for all MM primaries. (Note I didnt ask MZ to create this file but I hope he doesnt mind.) This file contains his Robot Binds as well as binds for all of the other MM primaries. I havent tested them out as of yet (I know I am kind of on the lazy side in that respect) but they should work fine based off my research and barring any spelling errors.
