  1. Cheers Jum. I didn't know that about the accuracy penalty. I'll scrap that idea then I think.

    Well, back to the drawing board. Ho-hum.
  2. I won't be on tonight, I'm not back from work until 1am I don't think. I've been looking at a few builds though.

    I'll level a couple of blasters up to level 6 if possible in the early hours and see how I feel about them. Probably sonic/(ice or elec).

    I'll give my headset another tinkering with too. If it's no good I should be able to afford a new one on Friday.

    Anyways, hope all goes well tonight.
  3. Hehe, fair enough.

    Hmmm *sits back and strokes his chin*.

    Well, I'm coming to the end of my week of late shifts, so I'll try a few things out and get back to you.
  4. Hey hey
    I'm quite interested in this and am happy to roll any AT to be honest. I have an Ice/Rad sitting at level 10 or would quite like another blaster (maybe sonic/ ?).

    I could give a scrapper or tanker a go but I've never played them.

    I have TS, but need a new headset (I can hear, but not speak) - which I should get soon.

    Tata for now
  5. I have a lot of respect for people who understand strategic troop placement in a battlefield.

    Sergeant Major Lol (Victoria Cross, LMAO)
  6. I had forgotten it was New Year's Eve.

    I am gonna call this off, but if anyone is doing it soon I would love to take part.

    Happy New Year all.
  7. If anyone is interested in doing this, let me know.
    I had a vague yes from Lord Phil (but as a different toon), so just let me know. It'll be a test for me leading a team but 5:30 pm seems OK.
    I guess I'll see how it goes.
    Cheers
  8. I'm up for this - won't have to pull out tonight either. I might bring Melon but Brain probably needs the respec more, so I might exemplar down with him if that's OK. Got to check what powers he has got at that level (32?).
  9. I'm annoyed I can't make the Siren's call thing, so the Manticore TF will take my mind off it.
  10. I'm available Thursday at TF o'clock.

    I'm working the 14th unfortuneately.

    I am happy to go to town on anything but the end sapping witches.
  11. We did succeed... eventually. That first mission is a pain in the behind. I'm always happy on these missions when the team doesn't get worked up.

    Thanks all.
  12. I'm up for this with Melon. Meet 18:30 ish in croatoa?
  13. Congratulations mate.

    What AT is she by the way?
  14. I should be free by 6:00. I can bring melon who is now 30 or BD who is 42. I'll exemp obviously. Give me a tell in game (handle braindead-unless I mess up).
  15. Harking back to the short-lived but incredibly good fun Fruit Bowl SG, I just wanna see who is still out there. I bumped into Lemonzest (aka _) tonght and was incredibly pleased to see her. It'd be nice to see some others - I never did get to see Plum Duff.
    No real reason for the thread.
  16. Frickin banks. I was stuck for so long at the coubner. I'm very angry - sorry Deluge.
  17. I know commander beet was wanting to do positron also. I don't know if he'll be on but it's worth checking.
  18. I'm off all day today and would love to come along. Let me know if you'd prefer Brain or Melon.
  19. On reflection, thanks a lot for the suggestion. I'm nothing crazy in PvP at the moment, but I can surprise peopple and over the last two days have twice managed to take a single player out of a larger team and beat them.

    Plus, I could probably get away more with TP, but I like hanging around and have found myself to be less squishy than I thought (if I divert their attention).

    Since my last post, I've added assault and tactics (a bit end heavy I find - maybe I'll have to give in and get stamina). At 26, it'll probably be terrify, but increase density and the jumpy kin power are on offer I think. I'll figure something out.

    See you all about.

    P.S. anyone at the Comic Expo? I live in Brighton and am busy both days but will be at the party on Saturday
  20. Just wondering if any of you are about. I've just got the game and am thinking about creating a nemesis for Braindead (mastermind seems kinda apt). I missed the push to 50 in CoH and thought I might be able to stay the pace in CoV.

    Give me a buzz if you're around.
  21. From this thread I take comfort in the fact that other people have trouble with Wamdue. You are a devil to face.
  22. I'll be there between 10 and 10:30 as Brain or Melon.
  23. Thanks all for the rapid and succinct responses. I think that covers everything I needed. Repel would be nice for stalkers - they've been the bane of my day - but the tactics option complements my PvE build more at the moment.

    I did exact revenge on a couple of the painful stalkers in Bloody Bay however (being able to see their trails in the water helped, hehe). Popping a purple or two, avoiding their initial strike and using a combination of confuse then TK to pin them against the rocks gave me a lot of satisfaction.

    I'm loving being a controller and am getting a lot of enjoyment from a bit of PvP now.

    Thanks a lot and see you all around.
  24. Hi, I have a few questions about controller PvP:

    1. What effect does confuse (I'm a mind/kin) have on another player? I've used it effectively on pets but just spammed it as part of an attack/hold chain so far.

    2. Am I right in thinking that siphon power has a - regen?

    3. I'm having problems hitting sometimes - I assume it's due to something I read about a 50% base accuracy - but I would appreciate feedback on this.

    4. At my level is there much I can do to mitigate the danger of assassin strikes? In a team, I am taken out first every time (which makes me kinda chuffed).

    That's all for now. I had another question, but it has disappeared from my mind.

    Cheers

    P.S. If you want a laugh, come and see my fire/fire blaster in PvP. I'm going to do a separate (and probably more lengthy) post about him.
