CM is important for the squishies on your team to help them avoid stun. Fort on the taunters to help with +tohit.

Quote:Same time I play on Freedom very very late at night or early early in the morning. Sadly prime pvp hours are my pve hours. :-)Originally Posted by Tokyo
I left freedom because the community there seems to take PvP far too seriously. I don't mind trash talk, I do it all the time. However, being PMed with "**** you n- *******"
or "You're a f*ing ***" crosses the line into personal attacks.
Really isn't what I was looking for in a PvP community.
You must not be on the same time we are on. Fiteclubs rarely, if ever happen and teaming happens a great deal because we are a smaller group.
Who do you play on Virtue?
I kind of get where you are coming from as far as the attitudes. I was doing some 1v1's tonight on a new build/toon of mine and some guy messaged me out the blue and basically was telling me how therms are cheap and no one is going to 1v1 me. I get out of a match and the same person sends me a blind arena invite on a different toon. Of course I am happy I am getting to pvp and go in the match without paying attention. He sets the match in the cargo ship and he is on a dark corrupter. Kills me then precedes to start talking smack in broadcast that I can't run from him on this map like I could the stupid dom I had just beat on the Perez Park map. So I spent the match running in circles with his debuff toggle on me. No GG at the end or anything. I never said a thing to him before, during or after to deserve smack talking. Then after the match he says in local channel to the next person I am going against that I suck as a therm. Then when I beat that person he tells them that they suck for letting me beat them. I don't see that kind of childish crap on Virtue, I also haven't seen nearly the skill level that I see on Freedom. Personally I would rather ignore the idiots and participate in better pvp. -

That was one of the two good parts about test (the other being the ability to fight anyone from any server) - you didn't need to spend lots of time or inf tweaking your build, most of the time IOs were just copied over. When you were fighting the best of the best (whether that was in team matches or duels), you had the best gear to work with, because everything was so competitive. That was never the case on the live servers, and it was implied in PvP on the live servers that everyone put in the effort to IO and accolade their characters themselves (whether that's entirely true or not is a different matter, but that's the general idea).
Test really is the only "fair" place to fight for that exact reason. When every one has the exact same ability to get the exact same builds and enhancements then it is all about skill rather than who has the most expensive builds. -

The number is just the relative position of the mito. #1 is the first yellow targeted by the spike, #2 the second. Its not very sophisticated. It just gives you an idea of how long youll have to be taunting before the spike catches up.
In all seriousness though I am very directionally challenged. That is why my raids always had a yellow leader that was used to dealing with my directionally challenged ways. :-) Telling me a number wouldn't help me one iota. -
Quote:I need to run some raids again cuz you guys are spoiled. I tell my yellow taunters, "target through me, see that yellow blog I have targetted, that is your mito, have fun.". All this sophisticated numbering of the mitos would make my head hurt, especially being I can't find my way to saferock once I leave it.
One other tactical nit was the positioning of vets to rookies. Cherry placed herself on #5 and #6, me on #4, and rookies on 1-3. See the problem. All the experience was on one side of the blob. My suggestions (after the fact) were to either place me on #1 and rookies on 2-4 so I could tail along covering if one of them falters or to place me on #2 for the same reason, I could watch #1, then tail along 3-4. -
Yanno I have to ask this question .... Felecia have you ever ran a successful raid? How many? I don't know if you have or haven't because I have not been to but a couple of raids in the last few months. However being you are sounding as if you know how to run them and giving opinions and advice I feel the need to ask.
I will say this though, while I personally noticed a few things that could possibly have been improved upon (which is pretty much any raid you can notice a thing or 2), overall the leadership was great for this raid and **** just happens.
While Amy wasn't there, I was. As someone who has ran literally hundreds of raids I think I am pretty qualified to say that Cherry you did just fine and shouldn't let it get to you. Just have an open mind to everything you think could have went wrong and learn from the things that you had control over and let the things you didn't have control over go. I was on vent and feel quite confindant from everything that I heard that the team leads had their **** together for the most part. There was just various circumstances that made things not flow properly.
Again, keep your head up and from looking at these posts this server supports you as a respected leader. Keep pushin on and don't let one bad raid influence your willingness to lead the community back in to the jello. :-)
BTW, technically this wasn't a failed raid. There was no pile of bodies in a sea of yellow death like the old days. We could go back tonight and finish the job. :-) -
Quote:I find it to be the exact opposite. I moved one toon to Virtue and one to Freedom on the same day. While I will admit Virtue doesn't seem to be quite as "clickish" for arena matches, they have still been very lol compared to Freedom. RV has even been more lol. While broadcast isn't as bad on Virtue as it is on Freedom, I haven't found people working together as a team on Virtue, at all. Pretty sad and not very competitive IMHO.Originally Posted by Tokyo
Eh, I was on board for the freedom thing, untill I actually participated in 2 Arena events and RV.
Freedom RV is more of a joke than Virtue servers RV; it's Kinda sad (especially villainside).
First Arena event the scrapper, defender, blaster team left after their first wipe.
Second Arena event they left cause We had an elec/therm, lol.
Seriously, I had expected more from freedom server. I transfered back to Virtue.
Let me know when test comes back. Till then, i'll be in Virtue where we've chased all the lolfiteklubers out.
P.s. We don't need a PvP server. Cross-server instancing for PvP would make much more sense (Which essentially would be a PvP server.)
As far as fiteclub, I never see it happen on Freedom because the zone is just too busy, Virtue I have seen and interrupted fightclubs several times. -

So not touchin that one..

Can someone tell me how much kb protection exactly is needed for say the 5 highest kb attacks in the game? Like for each attack, not just tell me I need such and such amount. :-) I am working on a build that I can't get as high as I want but I might as well not waste slots that are going to put me somewhere in between that I don't need either.

Then again so did every other team on the hero ladder at the time, besides OS that was at #1, being that was for the #2 spot. I guess that made for a whole bunch of terribad teams. -
Tfury and Llewthor won 1st place with 1.42, Disciple of Horus and Cherry got 2nd place with 4.36 and Kendo and Ready Aim Fire got 3rd place with 5.48.

Quote:Send me a p.m. if you are sincerly interested, and Silit needs to do the same. There are no "arena" positions. Freedom reps is what is available. If as a Freedom rep you were to decide to only do arena events/tourneys/leagues that is fine. Also there are no more PVPEC shiny titles either, sadly. Best you can do is trow it in your siggie to feel special. :-)Originally Posted by Sneaky_Prophet
I am reapplying for both Silit and myself (he can deal with it) to be Arena PVP reps. Thats right. Arena PVP. Basically we will just run the ladder to be on Freedom and have PVPEC titles while doing so, and probably help out with other stuff too because we are helpful.

kat you make me roflcopter so much.... I WILL own you if your up for auction.
Just like last year I owned most of the people auctioned... If i recall I bought 14 last year, and this year its going to be even better...I actually going to make those people DO things for a special server event to be announced later.
Bring out the piggy banks folks, cause Ive got 23 billion for this event alone to spend.
Kat, you better start working out now, cause your gonna be busy.
Ack, I think I would out bid you for myself first before letting that happen. :-)
On a serious note if you have an event idea just hit me up. I am always game for something new or creative. -

THROWDOWN: CriticalCat if you join the auction i will donate 500 Million Infl. to you for PvPEC.
I will check the dates/time for the auction and see what I can do. My schedule is chaotic at best and my gaming time has been next to none lately. -
Quote:Not even close. You were priced 8th on the list.Originally Posted by XxBudweiser8xX
Actually, I went for the 2nd highest amount, bronx beat me out by about 15million I believe.

Quote:Most of us were in it last year. I for one wanted to give some of the others a chance to shine. Besides Bronx still owns me from last year. The idea of another man owning me for an entire year and not useing me even once just sounds wrong in so many ways. :-)Originally Posted by Felecia_Divine
THROWDOWN: Felecia Divine has volunteered, let's see some of the other notables come out in support - This is aimed at Undead Cyborg, CriticalCat, Exodus Force, Dazz Marvelous (no you cannot get out of this one), Cobalt Azurean, and Mod08. Budweiser already beat us to it, i am impressed, nice way to lead Bud!
