    - Are the x3 LotG really worth it compared to just +recharge and x2 Enzyme?
    - Is Empty Clips worth taking?
    - How is Dual Wield better than Pistols (DPA looks better on Pistols)?
    - Is Triae Beacon really worth taking if you dont go for max +recharge +heal? I mean, tripple dip +300% regen looks sexy. Single 150% shouldnt make the difference on a fight, should it?
    The answer to most of these is because I was going for the soft cap.

    1. I needed the melee def
    2. I HATE stealth effects in this game I only need stealth when I'm traveling or speeding so I put it in SJ.
    3. The +health is usefull in many of the new trials where the softcap isn't enough any more, and the +regen stacks nicely with triage.
    4.Yes but if I had more recharge I wouldn't need it.
    5. I have no idea.
    6. IMO yes. It has a wide range and with Radial ageless I can allmost stack it.

    Here is what I did with it. I run fire ammo all the time. I went with Void for the 1/2 punch of Hail of Bullets followed by Void.

    O YES!

    And they would have to be reciting the local talent! they couldn't maintain their numbers otherwise!

    Darn it now I want to go watch Megus XLR again, "just a guy for jersey" indeed.

    For that matter I can almost hear Requiem telling his fellow nictus that he'll have their jorblocks.

    I think its called that because its a neighborhood that has a good view or the Mother of Mercy hospital which is on a hill that over looks the First Ward zone.

    My question is- do you mean to tell me that no one in Cole's forces noticed what was growing underground when they built the city???? To me that would be the first place to shore up!

    Real question is how was it fixed for Praetoria?

    Explain it, GG!
    My guess is that this line is the reason.

    At a guess this is where Cole found the another source of The Well. And when the sonic fences were turned inwards the massive burst of death/destruction eradicated what remained of the barrier between this "next" world and the normal world was eradicated

    I believe in the post about the paragon point store the values that were stated their implied that the total cost of the boosters had not changed.

    However that is for the content that Is already out, no mention is made of future booster packs and their point cost but I can't see them changing it.

    Anyone else suffering abnormaly high number of crashes in iTrials after the latest hotfix?

    I have joined two and lead three iTrials so far tonight and crashed on every single one of them.

    Four of them were hard crashes to desktop never even got the error reporter.


    And then just now standing in Pocket D trying to invite people to a Keys trial I had another crash.

    Anyone else getting It this bad?

    An interesting question Sam let's see what I can come up with…

    Brutes: Simple Berserkers. Although powerful and resilient there tendency toward blood drunkenness leads them to their death more often than not.

    Scrappers: Heavy assault. calm and collected enough to aim for their enemies weaknesses even in the heat of battle however killing the enemy is still far more to them than actually surviving.

    Blasters: Team players. the Heavy gunner, the backup, the provider of covering fire, the Last thing that stands between the ravenous hordes And the pure support classes,should the melees fall.

    Masterminds: Leaders. The team organizers, the orchestrators, the one with the plan, the coolhead. The one that has an eye on everything that happens and knows why, The one that has the one thing the team needs, whatever that may be.

    Corruptors: Much the same as blasters, standing right behind the melee types buffering the worst from the pure support classes.

    SOA's: talking only about Wolf spiders here and crab spiders in particular. they are basically the backup mastermind. They have leadership skills and Range AOE damage to pickup and slack there may be in the team. despite the fact they could lead they wanted to prefer not to. Especially after the ugly business of leaving Arachnos, Preferring instead to simply blend in.

    You know what's interesting tho? I currently have 3 masterminds, 3 corrupter,s 3 scrappers, 1 blaster, 1, Dominator, 1 SOA, and 1 Warshade. that I'm working on. with another 3 characters that are shellved for the moment. Thats it, 16 characters, feels like a lot more when looking at them on the selection screen.

    We had years of weapons that are too small. at this point I say to just make em oversized and then if necessary make em smaller later.

My goal is to make a team oriented, pets-lite/no-pets character. Furthermore, I'm interested in learning what makes the Crab Spider shine. I really didn't ever get a handle on them way back when.

    You can take a look at my ranged debuff AOE no-pet soft caped build, sounds like what you want.

    Are you planing on getting the incarnate stuff?

    Also, if you want to know why I did some of the stuff I did feel free to ask.

    Should do a spot on armor fashion at some point, for us Tec based hero's and villains.
