Axewrath

Hoping to organise this at 7pm tonight. I may decide to do this bi weekly, or on some kind of regular basis in order to trigger more zone invasions as me and a friend are after the Watchman accolade. Let me know if you're interested.

Assuming i dont have more probs gettin online on time this time lol i'll be there.

As long as this one dont suck out my eyeballs you can count me in. Axewrath, level 50 Tank.

Hi you can sign me up for that please. Axewrath Lvl50 Tank

To be honest I think any combo works well (asuming neither of you have that horrible Trick Arrow set) as you have an army to hand. My Mastermind is Necro/Poison and my mates is Thugs/Traps. We team all the time and i dont think it matters much due to the strength in numbers.

I dont agree with the opinion that both the heal and poison trap are rubbish.
The heal recharges fast, heals by a great amount and is long range, which keeps the Mastermind out of more trouble.
As for the poision trap it's just a very situational power. It's good for placing at a door so the ambushes in mayhem missions set it off, running in while the henchmen are aggroing and laying it down or keeping next to you, so if foes enter melee range you've got some protection. Yeah it's a bit naff to start with but that's why you just enhance it.
I've been a poision Mastermind since release and I love the set as a whole. And despite the debuffs being mostly single target there's enough of them to make up for that.

Also, he could hardly know you were on the last scientist at that point, could he?

Yup, that about sums it up. I was in warburg taking on a team of three. Now I had my hands full there but still they complained because they were trying to get the scientists away. If there is no risk where's the fun? Seems a bit odd for them to enter and expect no attack at all in a pvp zone.

The only bad experience I've had is someone complaining just because I was using particular powers. Makes me wonder why some people bother playing in PvP.

Tell me about it. They sold me BB without being able to connect us when they said they could. BT are a villain group in their own right.

Any chance to swing my chopper around asuming my puter is fixed by then.

Hibernate is also a god-like power in PvP. You'll be getting screams of "[censored] imba" a lot.

Tell me about it. My eyes hurt after using it. What language!

One other use for it is as a melee sheild. Cast it on your location and it keeps baseball bats away from your face.

Congrats mate.

All I can say is make sure you get both Cleave and Pendulum with the Axe. Both are very powerful (Cleave being the most damaging in the entire set). Gash, Chop and Beheader gradually increase in power and recharge time in that order so its up to you if you want quick/weaker or slow/stronger attacks. However the recharges are a bit slow on all Axe attacks bar Gash anyway so there not much difference on that side of things for those three. Swoop is a great soloing attack with more great power on a single enemy. Whirling Axe has the same weak power as Gash but it can be good for a team by keeping a group busy.

Yes they are. There is more to tanks than taunt. They have high HP and defences. No matter the power choices they'll always be Tankers. Taunt is a 'choice'. It doesnt define the AT. I'm not arguing about taunts effectiveness again because I'll loose my very last bit of sanity that I hold so dear, just that the definition is not a hero with taunt.

This happened to me. The team got hit by a PBaoe attack and was wiped out. I have taunt. Its not that I did or didnt have it, in this case I didnt know when and if the villain in question would use such an attack. Some times taunt isnt the whole issue. I got accused of being a bad tank by someone not present here (so I'm not getting at any comments made here). But due to having a real life I dont play this game enough to know exactly when its likely for every villain that has them to launch his AOE thingy. So if I dont fight that villain a lot its not my fault. Taunt is only part of a tank. Sometimes things happen for other reasons.

The debt cap I must have hit makes me wish I got a team together for this one lol.

Any chance to swing my chopper around. I'm in.

Me and a mate just made one on Union, The Remote Controllers. All named after TV channels.

The best thing about this power is the defence debuff. I notice a difference after hitting an enemy with it. Its not an amazing power but it debuffs so many things so I think its worth it. Besides like I said the defence debuff part is worth it.

First time for everything. Count me in.

One thing got me today doing the Nerva respec (did it the second time around today though ) is that when this was shouted at the Masterminds, some amoungst our number didnt bother to attack after all. One of them certainly didnt leaving us 6 whole robots short of an attacking force against Oranges/Reds, large numbers of them. So I had to wade in or no one would have, I lost either way. Having to look after my henchmen as I was the only one doing it got me killed. Repeating this process I just quit the Strike Force. You cant just let the Masterminds get on with it ALL of the time, plus if you do better communication is needed so all Masterminds cordinate the attack.

Got fed up with Archery now. Looks like Dragonscale will get his 10th re roll or something

Since I dont have a respec yet I cant test whether its better to have Stamina or just slot End Redux in my most used powers. I'd like to leave out Stamina as there are plenty of other powers I'd like. Being A Necro/Poison I have to use the heal from my secondary a lot, plus of course all the debuffs I have. I thought of also putting an End Redux in the upgrading powers for my henchmen as well. Any thoughts on this?
