  1. I have the disconnecting problem, but no lag. It happens waaaay to often. I thought it was my internet connection (I have wireless, and it keeps disconnecting because of interference from wireless phones). I take it not all of you (if any) have wireless?

    Dont let the draw delay stop you, if you really want to go archery blast. It might be a bit of a problem, but when you're having fun what's half a second tops?

    Sonic is quite good, was levelling a low level scrapper the other day and teamed with a sonic defender, she was beating me to killing everything. I'd hit a lag spike, and when I came out she'd be a way ahead beating on thugs

    Just whichever you go for, please choose powers from there. Dont give in to pressure to just choose primaries, thats stupid. Would be like asking a scrapper to not choose their secondaries

    Had no experience of those 2 powersets but all I can say is watch out when choosing a weapon dependent powerset alongside your primary- you might have to draw your weapon after doing each primary move, which takes up valuable blasting time. Not sure if it kicks in with storm though, havent tested it.
  4. I havent got to the nova levels yet, but thinking that shouting "Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast!" is a good un.
  5. The endurance cost on HeroPlanner of storm scared me, so I threw end reds at it to make it go away. Then again, it would best to have the powers come around again sooner. It dont matter, as long as the slots there I can always change the enhancement.

    Thanks for the help guys!
  6. It's not really that I have extra powers, it's that I'm a mad suicidal defender who enjoys melee and wants some melee attacks. Kick looked good. Medicine pool I'd only open to get Aid Self, and not enough room for that.

    If mind over body isnt that good, I'll go power mastery to get total focus

    Thanks for the help
  7. My limit of experience for bubblers is a lvl 16 one, but I have to say that I love PFF. Damn good to have when I get in a bit of trouble, and dispersion bubble stays up while it's on (dont know if it buffs team while PFF is up though). It's good when travelling too, decent protection (up til now anyway).

    I also personally like Force Bolt, it helps me to keep mobs off the squishy ones (me included).

    And can I also congratulate you on taking more than 1 secondary power, defenders have the secondary powerset for a reason!

    Hey folks,

    I've started up a stormie, and am enjoying it. Plan to take it into PvE and PvP when possible, and so would like to know people's thoughts on the above planned build (dont want to start messing things up too soon ).

    I'm wondering if I have gone overboard on the end red enhancements in some of the stormie powers. Advice on which powers to slot when would be appreciated too

    Thanks all
  9. Thanks, thought I'd seen it somewhere. When playing through the hollows it struck me that it would be useful to make those damn electricky outcast shockers stay down. Annoying blue people, like smurfs only taller and angrier looking.

    Would also be good against tough flying enemies- let them have falling damage, then smashy them.
  10. On the topic of snowstorm, isnt there a -fly component to it? I could have sworn I heard it/ read it somewhere, but cant find it.
  11. Thanks for all the help, Ive decided a probably will go O2 Boost. I can always respec if I dont like it
    Cheers all
  12. secondary will be energy, Im a fan of smashing stuff lol
    How exactly does gale complement energy blasts, and is it a lot better now that theres ragdoll physics?
  13. Hey folks,
    Im thinking of starting a stormie and planned out a kind of template build on the hero planner. Hit a hitch when trying to decide between the 2 set starters (dont really have room in my build for both): which would I be better off choosing, gale or O2 boost? I plan to team and solo, so I cant use that to decide.
    Any thoughts welcome....
  14. Ok here it goes

    On saturday 12th nov i will be starting a supergroup known as " The Nightblades " it will be for all levels and powerleveling will be allowed but frowned apon. plz email Nano-Gamma around 6pm gmt for an invite (with ur details plz). i would also like any other sgs to form a coalition with us.
    We shall strike the evil from the shadows.
