    STEAM question

    but that doesn't keep it up to date, I was wondering if there was a way of using the great steam updating system over the pi... the not very good one we already have

    STEAM question

    How do you download it from steam without buying it?

    Even if you are solo and grinding mobs, whats the purpose

    [/ QUOTE ]Do you have any idea of the XPOT an AoE-heavy character can reach on hazard zone spawns? It's the fastest way to level solo.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Shhhhh they'll remove the other hazard zones if you're not careful and then what will we be left with solo?

    Aaah! Smell of burnt flesh in the morning. Try it, you will die for it.

    For it or from it?

    I doubt they would add stone melee to Scrappers. Can you imagine having criticals using Seismic Smash! lol

    Yes I can, and it makes me smile
  7. My DM/Regen got replaced by my DM/SR when both were in their 30s. It took me ages to get back to leveling the DM/Regen again and then after it hit 50 I've not touched it since.

    My BS/SR, though much newer than my DM/SR, got replaced by it when I found a def capped build for the DM/SR that let me keep my epic set in full. Until then my BS/SR was my solo scrapper and my DM/SR was my team one.

    While it was leveling my Claw/WP replaced all my other toons cause it was so damned fun (does that count?)

    I have a Rad/Rad defender and an Illusion/Rad controller but I still take the Rad/Rad as my main TF toon. It was my first character, it was the first toon I gave sets to and its probably the character I'm most comfortable playing. If the team needs a controller I will play my Ill/rad but as a preference I'll defend over control.

    I have a Merc/Dark and a Necro/Dark MM and they both have different roles. My Necro hasn't been used in teams as much since I had the Merc/Dark but nothing feels as safe as the Necro/Dark solo. NOTHING I tell you.

    I'm trying to use my Mace/WP brute to replace my Fire/Dark brute cause I dont think I will ever be able to get a useful build with villains IO costs to meet my expectations. When I made the Fire/Dark it wasn't an issue, cause there wasn't IOs. Now I think its probably the character I could most improve with them, but due to the market being poor and my earnings on villains being consistantly dire I've decided not to waste the effort on him. I've put some uniques in my Elec/Fire though, but the Elec/Fire has that added fun factor.

    I think maybe over time some characters lose their fun while others don't. The game changing can affect some more than others. My Rad/Rad isn't able to tank anywhere near as well as it could with SO's in I3 due to power changes, ED etc etc
  8. Oh right, smoothly, Illusion/Rad doesn't break a sweat, mine doesn't have a single set in its build and can solo AVs.

    Its more rewarding on my scrapper, and it was a real insp/drag other mobs around chore on my brute. With my MM I can tell within the first few seconds if its going to work. The AVs I struggled with on my MM I also had problems with as EBs
  9. Its more the flames than the teeth that are my concern. From a deaf and blind mute that is
  10. Ah, missed that in the list, sorry. I just want my Spine Invul to be popular
  11. Oh aside from stalkers my list was all of ATs I know that have done it, not that could do it. That would have made my post an answer I guess.

    I think I saw a blaster with a capped ranged defence build once too, which in my mind would be a strong candidate for soloing AVs.

    It could be possible with any AT as far as I know. I've only done it with 4. Scrapper, Controller, Mastermind and Brute
  12. The only concern I have with stalkers is the HP of them for how they'd be doing it, but I think it would be doable
  13. A fair few scrappers can
    A fair few controllers can (Illusion/Rad can take on GMs)
    Some defenders can
    A fair few brutes can
    A fair few Master Minds can
    I would have thought a stalker could, not 100% sure on that
  14. Nope, but I still hope.
    I also want a Claw/WP brute while they're at it and a Stone Melee/Fire scrapper. A Dark/En blaster is the final thing on that wish list
  15. You have the 1billion inf badge? I've been trying to get that on one character and am only about 60% of the way there
  16. I wont sleep until then..........
  17. I want to save my next Claw scrapper for Elec armour.......... but FE + FU would be soooo sweet ARGH
  18. Cool and have you made Knightly's Cage......... room yet?
  19. Swan and Chimera were the only ones that caused me trouble on the offensive side. Swan had too much DoT and Chimera could one shot me once he had his thumb tacks on the floor. My build was actually designed for general team play though, with more +HP I think only Swan would have bothered me too much.

    Oh and yeah I have a total NE damage chain on my DM/SR I can switch to if I want so that probably helped. Tyrant was actually the easiest I fought, I found his attack rate far too slow to trouble me and he had no real tricks for survival for me.
  20. Pretty good, the Lava must really help though, didn't use it when I took tyrant down on my DM/SR but that took me about 15 minutes. I didn't use the MA so none of the others I fought had Lava as an option

    Surviving the AV's isn't too tough on a scrapper, its beating their regen while doing so that is the task
  21. See I'm fairly easily bought, if they threw in some proliferation I'd be sold for a while at least. New arcs in existing zones would make me happy too, level 40-45 only new villain content would definitely cheer me up.

    I'm fairly casual about SGs really, I see them as a group of friends and I don't go around bragging about my real life friends down the pub so I don't tend to get caught up in the SG rivalry (if there is any)

    CoP would be a big boost for me, I wanted a real go at that, nothing to do with base raids after, but I wanted to just be able to say "I did that" and move on. There's not much eluding me in game at the moment that I want to achieve. I need to find enough free time to do an SSTF1, but then I fear what has happened to my social life if I ever get that amount of time just spare. I'd like to do an SSTF3 too probably will one day, but my drive is at a low at the moment.

    Got a themed team on the go on Mondays now, which was great fun this week, but I've only logged in since to move some inf around, and invite an alt to an SG......... Sunday I'll probably ship raid again, I like the community event, shame they broke the joke/lag fest that used to be Hami, but at least we have ship raids as a replacement
  22. ahah, seems to be fine now
  23. Cause only the Super High Dictator Captain Fascist High General Leader has that right on the settings tab at the moment
  24. Surely there's benefit to everyone if his room is far far away?
  25. I'd recommend a look around Striga if I was you. Its the one zone I never tire of
