  1. A chib of my BS/SD Scraper, Valkyrie's Executor would be most hilarious.

  2. So any one think that the incarnate stuff has helped to fix any of Mercs/ problems?
  3. You know what our "auto teaming" tools are in this game Sam? CTRL + C and CTRL + V. I don't know where people get these ideas that when building a team your obligated to chat with the people you're inviting. I create one message that includes all the applicable information; and then send that message out to everyone not on team on the search list in the correct level range.

    The problem comes when that doesn't work. When after sending out tells to 10 or even 20 people and you still only have four people on your team It is then that building a team requires real effort. It is at that point that building a team switches from being a relatively easy exercise that was not detracting from your relaxation, to one of real work. You hit up the global channels, then you ask in the broadcast and in request chat, then you get desperate and ask in Help chat. All of which require a new message that still contains all the pertinent information, as well as other Information clarifying which side Of the game you are on and the teams level range. That is what I have always considered to be the real meat and potatoes of building a team.

    Realize also that I made no mention of team composition many people seem to think that it is actually important when it's not. Another thing many people don't like is the "responsibility" of being a team leader, of being responsible in the case of a team wipe. Guess what. IT"S A GAME! All it is, is data being shuffled around. It doesn't matter if you are leader when the team wiped! Nobody's going to bite your head off for it and if they do you can kick them! RAAAAAAAAA! people *****footing around over being the team leader really gets on my nerves.

    As a palyer that regualry plays with a ping in the 2,000's or higher. I can say with confadiance that this is a lag issue. It's also why I can use the Nemesis staff and KB a mob and then use Sands of Mu, which kicks ***.


    You can see similar behavior with Whirling Sword and other PAOE's its the mobs you can see on your client that get hit. even if they move away before the attack happens on the server.

    1. We still have no ARMORED STEAMPUNK BOOTS.

    2. We still haven't seen anything from the "All Things Art" threads other than pay for material.

    3. The new iArmor parts are good looking but are still gated content.

    4. We didn't get any free costume parts in the last, what 2-3 Issues?

    2. How does your build play?
    3. Are you sucking wind much?
    4. Don't you find caltrops counter-intuitive to AAO?
    5.What are your thoughts on Shield Charge as an opener? (i.e. use it from range rather than jumping into a spawn and getting AAO bonusses before firing it)
    1. This build is intended for Incarnate Trials. The chances of having enough time to regenerate a measurable amount of health that's going to keep me alive are slim at best. Defense I am figuring out now although helpful is useless without team buffs that push me past 60 to 70%. Resistance is very useful as it lowers your total damage that you will be taking and I would definitely recommend building more in. I have found the new defense soft cap either unreachable or unaffordable for myself. However you are welcome to investigate it yourself.

    2,4,5. My build has proven itself rather effective in the incarnate trials ( which is the only content this character has run recently) what I generally do after zoning in is jump past the first group of mobs and sometimes the second group depending on how the league is doing and charge a group by myself.

    I eat a red, yellow, purple, and orange inspirations then hit Build Up and Shield Charge at range into the middle of a group followed by Pyronic Radial Judgment.

    Let me explain what that does for me. At this time almost the entire mob is either knocked down or dazed from Judgment. Then I make a choice, I look at the team trying determine where they are at on the previous group. The question I ask myself is "Will I survive long enough for the Tank to get here".

    If yes I use Whirling Sword, Slice, Head Splitter, Parry.

    If I don't think I'll survive long enough I use my trump card Caltorps.

    Caltrops is a wonderful tool, I forget the exact numbers behind it but it has a rather high magnitude fear built into it along with damage (in fact if I'm not mistaken it has one the highest DPAs in the game) this fear causes the mobs to run around like chickens there and cut off. Exactly as planned, mobs running around (like chickens with their head cut off) aren't attacking me and therefore aren't dealing any damage. If i'm going to die anyway this has at least bought me more time if it hasn't saved me outright. Then I double stack Parry and continue as normal with Whirling Sword, Slice, Head Splitter.

    3. This builds one weaknesses is endurance. with all my toggles and Sprint running I'm sitting right on the edge of my endurance regeneration I can farm solo at x2/8 just fine and generally not have any endurance issues. However endurance draining Enemies are problematic, I can do carnies it's just more work and more inspirations. Keeps me on my toes to say the least.
  21. The one time I did this TF the Durays went down in 10 min tops was a AV fight just like any other.

    Kheldian naming?

    Ingame Name: The Darkstar of Alfheimr

    Host's name: Alfrhelga - Alfr means Elf, Helga means holy or blessed.

    Host's race: Ljosalfr - Old Norse Light Elf

    Kheldian's name: Bound in Umbral Shadow

    Kheldian's faction: Warshade

    Current level: 3! (My first Keld ever.)





    Ingame description.
    The Darkstar of Alfheimr was a happy go lucky ljosalfr (Old Norse for Light Elf) named Alfrhelga living on Alfheimr (realm/planet of the Old Norse elves) walking happily along one day she noticed a meteorite descending from the heavens with the most unusual purple hue to it. Hurrying to where the meteorite had fallen she discovered a strange nebulous energy, but what surprised her at the most was when it talked to her. It said that it was a Nictus know as Bound in Umbral Shadow, it claimed to be dying. It said it had taken part in a great battle that resulted in the destruction of a star that had thrown him across the universe. During his begging he asked her to fuse with her, making promising great power in return. Although Alfrhelga could sense the creature's evil she simply could not allow him to die. Instead she made Umbral Shadow swear an oath upon Odin's name that would only assist her in using his powers for the benefit of others.
  23. Recharge is important because you want to open with build up and shield charge on every spawn. Not to mention the ideal attack chain of head splitter, disembowel, head splitter.

    you are so currently soft to all three positions without parry which is quite impressive but you don't have hasten therefore you have to have parry in your attack chain, this lowers your optimal DPS. also consider that in the Incarnate trials you will have to use parry twice in order to soft cap yourself against those warworks victoria boss's.


    This is my current build it differs from yours and that I had to have targeting drone and caltorps. The drone is just for show/character theme but the caltrops are actually useful in trials.

    I would also advise building towards 60% to all defenses. Especially if intend to run a lot of incarnate trials.
