    Slotting advice

    after getting my lovely cute little imps last night i decided i'd go on TR again and try out the build i posted here, liked it alot, i also tried another build this time with Hot Feet thrown in and i must say that with both hot feet and imps i've kinda had a change of heart when it comes to hot feet itself.

    after some consideration about travelpowers, hotfeet etc. i have actually decided to have his future build something like this (with hotfeet this time ):

    any thoughts?


    i decided to drop Fly (can always get it back later) and pick up hotfeet.
    the reason i changed my mind about hotfeet was because i decided it can be nice to have that extra damage when soloing, and when teaming i just dont have to turn it on if i dont want to

    fair point on transference, i have it on my kin/dark defender and it is quite lovely, allthough it can miss, and the longer i can go on before having to use it the better

    Which is why a good kin tries to fit in Tactics (but that's another story...). In any case, I also play a kin defender and they play quite differently actually.

    Dammit Okt!! I've told you there's no room!!!

    I don't miss much even fighting on Invincible...just slot 2 acc in every power and you're fine for the most part.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That's cause you're stubborn and can't live without your Acro Archy

    [/ QUOTE ]

    'cos Acro is the power of the gods (or at least me)!!!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why only use 2 powers for Travel when you can use 5 - hasten, ss, cj, sj, acro ftw!!!!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    actually phil, thats just 2 powers for travel

    Slotting advice

    oh i am enjoying it, very much so, only 5 bars away from Imps now and if i love it now i cant imagine how much fun it will be! i'm sure that, on my way to 50, i will change styles and powers various times, but for now the "safe" style is what i'm sticking too this being my first serious troller and all.

    fair point on transference, i have it on my kin/dark defender and it is quite lovely, allthough it can miss, and the longer i can go on before having to use it the better

    but you've made some good points and i'm gonna take it all into consideration

    about flying with hover and siphon, kind of annoying having to siphon ppl all the time, especially during long flights, and siphon speed + 3slotted fly is much more comfy
  5. Brimmy

    Slotting advice

    Firstly to Okton, looks like its pretty close to my slotting that one, but only 2 in fly wont do (will explain why further down). and on Fire Ball i really thought 1acc 3dam 2End would do it, i run siphon speed perma and when needed i hit hasten, so having an End or two seems better than a recharge dont you think?

    now, a little explanation to my powerchoices then, since it seems that is needed

    i took both the jumping and flight pool because of a mix of concept and annoyance ^^

    Fly is and will always be his main travel power, but i wanted cj and acro for the mezz protection.

    i've thought alot about hot feet, went on test and tried it out, sure its a nice power but its really not for me. only times i wanna be that close to a mob is to hit Cinders or heal then back away again.

    bonfire i took just for filling up really, couldnt decide what to put in that last powerslot so i just took that for fun

    Slotting advice

    Hey all, i've been playing my fire/kin for a good while now and very much so enjoying it (lvl 31 as i post this).
    When I8 comes live i plan to respec the toon a little bit and as i do so i thought i'd get some advice on slotting.

    the buíld i plan on respecing into is as follows:

    as i said above its only the slotting i want advice on, the powers are going to be like this and i refuse to change it :P

    i currently only have fly for travel since that is my prefered choice, i am however picking up the jump pool for cj and acro.
  7. i went on Test the other day and tried it out with my fire/kin he doesnt have imps yet so the damage was much impressive, Flashfire, Firecages, stand with hotfeet on made for some very nice control/damage, when the mob comes to after flashfire you just hit cinders and go for another drink

    i decided not to go for it on my live toon though, allthough it was nice (and with being /kin the end wont be an issue after 35) it doesnt really fit with my playstyle.


    so to sum up, great power, nasty End Cost.
  8. I fought with the villains in SC today, next sunday, in RV, i will do everything i can to stop the rampage of those who fought beside me.

    Zedorian Valorum will give aid to the forces of good and we will prevail in these times of evil.

    Villains be ware, the hour of doom is upon you, none will be spared. (unless you bribe us )


    (oh i'm sooooo dramatic today )


    i'l even remake my absolutely awful Longbow-wannabe costume for it
  9. you can indeed mezz voids (of all 3 "titles") i use Shadow Cloak+SS (that makes a perfect invis) sneak up on them pop gravity well + mire blast blast blast!!!
  10. good thing i've decided to go with the second build i posted then
  11. well i've started the toon now, will defo go for the build with stamina in it.

    @Xanthus: I will take away the slots from lunge when i get to have some more attacks.

    and not needing Evasion for PvP actually makes me happy if this is indeed the case more End for me

    when i do the respeccing to take the slots out of Lunge i will also change SS to SJ, taking SS to begin with since Hasten will ease up the lack of attacks a bit

    and i did not know that about putting Def Buffs in hide, will do that
  12. SHENNY!!!!

    huge gratz bro, REALLY about time!

    was starting to loose hope there for a bit when you (due to that blasted comp of yours) went away for a while, great comeback!
  13. altered the build a bit, dropped the Med pool and invis and picked up fitness.

    think it would work better than the above?

  14. invis will only be used for positioning since i cant attack with the Pool-Invis active, or have they recently changed that without me knowing?

    No Stam SR Build

    [ QUOTE ]
    This will be mainly PvP based for SC

    [/ QUOTE ]

    if your gonna take this build to SC PvP mainly you wont be hitting anything

    SC caps at lvl 30 and you havent slotted acc's until 30+ wich means those wont be 'active' in SC, and that my friend is gonna hurt you badly.
  16. hey all, wondering if anyone could recomend a stalker set for SC PVP?

    been thinking about spines/sr, i know its a nasty primary at first but once 20 it should be allright shouldnt it?

    and also, been thinking about making it without the fitness pool, is that worth trying or just plain silly?

    thnx for any advice and responses



    Edit:

    the build i've been looking a bit at is as follows:

    does this look like it'd work in PvP? and aswell would it be at least half good in PvE so i can actually get to sirens?

    I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to stick to English on these boards, for a variety of reasons (not least of which is that I don't read Swedish, so I won't be able to moderate the thread).

    Sorry about that - if you want to use Swedish, I'd suggest setting up a website and/or message board for the SG.

    Thanks.

    the main problem i'm worrying about is if the moderators doesnt approve of a non-english thread, but i can honestly see a problem
  19. hehe, jo jag förstår att du har lite fullt upp med violators (har själv varit medlem )

    ska se om jag har någon global jag kan lämna så jag har plats för en till (får ju bara ha 4 )
  20. *tillägg till tidigare post*

    Alla lvls är välkommna.
    Alla AT's är välkommna.

    Ledarna förbehåller sej rätten att kicka medlemmar som varit borta längre än 30-40 dagar utan att låta oss veta, t.ex om ni ska åka bort eller fokusera på jobb/skola så säger ni bara till så ser vi till att ni förblir medlemmar.

    INGA rasistiska eller annars "hat-fulla" kommentarer kommer att accepteras. Brukas sådana kommentarer kommer åtgärder vidtas.

    Promotions:

    Första: 20000 Prestige

    Andra: 40000 Prestige

    Tredje: 60000 Prestige

    Fjärde: Ej Bestämt


    Titlarna som följer Promotions har ännu inte satts, kommer att fixa dom i eftermiddag.

    Basen har påbörjats men för att den (och SG'n) ska kunna växa ber vi om att ni är i SG-Mode till minst lvl 24, först efter lvl 24 gör det någon skillnad för er som spelare.

    Grundare/Ledare:
    Otria
    Fira of Earth
    Iron Steel
    ? :P (kommer inte ihåg det långa komplicerade namnet just nu, sorry)


    i eftermiddag/kväll kommer jag även att titta in till en Tailor och göra ett försök på en SG-Kostym
    grunden i kostymen är givetvis färgerna (Gult/Blått) Chestdetail är ett kors, även manteln kommer troligen ha ett kors på sej (finns inte som ett exakt kors men med rätt 'stil' ser det ut som ett kors) resten är ännu oklart och kommer troligen att lämnas rätt fritt.

    Varken jag eller någon annan ledare kommer att ställa några höga krav på att ni gör en kostym då Infamy ännu inte finns i några stora mängder.

    Av oss ledare i SG'n är det jag (Otria) som har högst lvl så när jag når en ekonomisk 'nivå' (40+) kommer jag även att hjälpa andra medlemmar med infamy så gott jag kan.

    Tror det va allt än så länge. Hoppas intresse väcks hos iaf några av er

    Hej alla!

    Lords of Valhalla skapades precis, en helsvensk SG på City of Villains, som nyskapade är vi hittills bara 4 personer men vi hoppas väldigt mycket på att bli flera

    Som SG finns vi för att samla svenskar under ett tak så att säga och vårt främsta mål är att ha kul!

    Är ni intresserade av att joina eller helt enkelt vill veta mer så posta här eller kontakta mej in-game genom att skicka ett /t till antingen Otria eller @Brimmy

    Ha det bra nu!
  22. i've checked my little black book, free on the 5th so i'll be there, hopefully i might have my brute in range for RV by then so if the heroes are loosing i can turn sides XD
  23. the fifth, jeez, talk about planning ahead

    anyways, if i havent got anything to do on the fifth i'll be there. hmmm, to take Brim or Zed... bah, i'll alternate!
  24. Brimmy

    My EM/Invu build

    as i've said endurance (with the slotting i have) is not an issue anymore, he's almost lvl 31 now and endurance is just fine, sure the enhances going down to yellow will cause some changes but its only for 1 lvl and then its back to great again.

    if "numbers" show my end is bad or not i dont know, but playing him shows that it isnt.
  25. didnt see if anyone said it but there is a blindspot by the hero base in Sirens as well. approaching the 'door' to steel canyon head-on from inside sirens call there is a ledge on the right-hand side of the 'gate' where you are hidden from the drones and have a perfect view of the hospital doors.. its not the safest blindspot in the world bc if you step forwards just a little to far there is a drone that will get you, but those watching their step can take some good advantage of this. fixy fixy ^^
