  1. Seems I cant check out the costume creator... or even log in like we used to. Anyone else having this problem?
  2. This team is shaping up good. Still short a brute though. Any Brute concept would be nice, though I would personally prefer a very large monster and/or killing machine, but I tend to always lean that way. Any powersets for brute are open for possibilities. If anyone is interested in the spot drop a post here!

    @Tir: Dont raving lunatics usually have butcher knives?

    ITF Tonight!

    Me and a friend were hoping to get an ITF going today, and seeing as its an odd level range, felt it best posted on the boards.

    Tonight at about 9:30 pm EST will be an ITF around level 41 (levels 39-42 in the team, no SKs). If anyone is iterested just post here. DPS, Tank, and 1 more buffer/DeBuffer needed. Current known team layout is as follows...

    1.) Me: Coniferous Man (Plant/Emp Controller) level 41
    2.) AmericanPatriot2: Shadow Vigil (Dark/Dark Defender) level 41
    3.)
    4.)
    5.)
    6.)
    7.)
    8.)

    Again, if you know you're going to be there post here. If you come as a late joiner later, we'll be in Cimerora around that time searching for people, send me a /t.
  4. I never saw softcapping a huntsman as neccesary. I figured slotting for +Recovery and +RECH was always a better idea with defense in the backseat. 35-40% defense will lead to more set bonuses devoted to other things you need. Gratz on getting the softcap though, I did it on my crab, and coupled with resistances, I was able to tank with him. Oh how I love SoAs...
  5. How about a chance to placate proc in Havok Punch? :P

    And they were flooding multiple zones instead of just Atlas and Cap Au Diable.
  7. Went with Plant/Emp. Much more fun to RP and is very fun. Saving Ill/sonic for later.
  8. I have half an hour to get in some last minute leveling on one of my controllers, both about level 35. One is Plant/Emp and the other is Illusion/Sonic. I like them both, even if the Plant feels like his job is too easy and the Illusion feels like a buffbot. They're both fun and I need to pick one of them to level for the rest of the night and focus on leveling first. I posted this on the Controller boards for their thoughts, but you guys are the community they're a part of, which should I level first?
  9. I. Love. That corruptor backstory.

    We'll meet after DXP obviously. I'm writing a more specific backround for my stalker tomorrow, who is currently level 8.

    I can't decide!!

    The original post was here, and I settles on my plant/emp.

    However! I now have a few question about the Plant Control set. Spore Burst: Worth it? I have room for one or 2 more powers and it's either Spore Burst of vines, or some more from the Earth Epic set. Was thinking of taking Spore Burst and throwing a chance to placate proc in there, but is it really worth it over Vines? Also, Spirit Tree: can it be Teleported with recall friend? And I know the pet is mediocre, but how should she be slotted? She seems to function like a downgraded Dark Servant, and can be slotted with as much variety. Suggestions?
  11. Well, if you'd like you can go with the Fire/Pain or Fire/Rad Idea and let JKPhage go Thujgs/Poison that'd be swell!

    Recommend a set

    /agree on Aid Self. PB plus Aid Self is wonderful. I used to do it in zone PvP. Until i13 anyway.

    For Psy Blast, be sure to take all the single targets and to slot Will Domination with a Chance to Placate Proc..
  13. Well, we have a /Pain and a /Traps, so poison would be a great addition! I must sadly say that another MM without the full Pet retinue is just a little odd. Might I suggest a street-smart Rifle/Rad or Rad/Rad corruptor who originally had a group of thugs tagging along who all got sick and died from the effects of your powers, than having Mister come offering a cure? I like the character idea, so it may be better to shelve it as a seperate project as try something different/similar. I'm not sure I'd like to see 2 Thugs MMs, let alone 2 MMs who both skimp out on pets.

    We're still short a brute if you have an idea for that.
  14. If you want a real challenge you can make your crab a tank like mine. However, anything works, honstly. A great way to start dabbling in the SoA pools are by seeing if you can even levl one of them to 24. Once you get that far it's all pretty self-explainatory.
  15. Yes. You can get stamina. That you dont have it now means you must have skipped something in the Fitness set. Not to mention you next power isnt until 44. Try respecing, it should be there.
  16. Call_Me_Awsome has an amazing guide to invulnerabilioty, which should work perfect for this build. Not sure it it can get you softcapped on everything, but it'll get you close.
  17. Oh hey! It's Xanatos!

    I'd do it, but I have a mere 1/5th of what you'd require.

    psst, love your VV page by the way.

    all and all its very fun to play and if u get a pocket kin omg its crazy. try getting a team of 3 or more crabs and youll have some fun
    Once VEATs were released there were so many of them leveling. I was leveling myBrute so I could play one, and the team was 7 VEATs and Me most of the time. And occasionally a corruptor.
  19. Ok cool! /WP fits the character a bit better anyhow. A little odd that a combo like that is so good. Very useful in PvE and in PvP. Anyone know what Powers from Elec Melee I'd need if I were PvPing?
  20. Arch/EM Is just a beast. Boost Range, BU, Aim, Rain of Arrows, Fistful, Explosive, just beautiful. Arch/Mental is a beast as well in teh AoE dept, but lacks the ability to hit hard enough on singe targets in melee like EM can. When stuff gets to close to my Arch Blaster I smacj 'em with Bone Smasher and TF and wait for the stun. Also, with EM and Aid Self, you can use Power Boost to pop big heals on yourself as a 'Just n case'.
  21. Aid Other (only base slot, other 3 go in other powers), Aid Self (base slot + 3).
