You have seen at least 6 of them in action, Points at your badge for MoLRSF

Corrupters rock.

Well done Miss Killer

Oh they are awesome, just not found the primary for me yet. I know I will be a /cold corrupter though

Grats on another 50

No more MoSTFs EVER, they're not as fun, you cant go crazy and you wind up hating yourself/others/devs

For normal missioning they're probably my favourite support to have. Either FF or Darkies I like. For the STF I'd rather have Sonics, Empaths and Rads maybe the odd darkie but only if he's really slotted up that rez power so it can debuff

See thats the problem. With a sonic controller at least you have some fun in the set. That said trying to find a level 50 FF defender is fairly tough too. Maybe people that like being buffbots only play empaths

Side note, Syn's an excellent stone tank and I feel comfortable letting rip with my blaster when teamed with him. But he's not the average player

[/ QUOTE ]
Syn as in Sin? Then im flatttered

Its nice to know your strength, but its more important to know your weakness. Know your enemy, face your weakness.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, as in Sin (must learn to spell).

If I was choosing a weakness to overcome in this game it would be survivability over movement. I think its much harder to play a good Stone tank than it is to play say a good Ice Tank. With its resistance to slows and its amazing agro capabilities all you have to worry about with ice is surviving. Inv in my opinion is a very well balanced set which doesn't throw up any tough challanges in any aspect, same with Willpower. Its the other sets where you have to overcome the weakness inherant in their sets

Am trying to level up an Ice/Sonic controller......... kinda trying......... OK I might have given up just a little bit......... but see I have this BS/SR scrapper on the same account that will become awesome after a few hundre million inf is spent on it and 40 more levels of Ice control and sonic defence doesn't seem anywhere near as fun as........ OK I get your point

Is that a rad DEFENDER or your sonic DEFENDER then? (though seriously we always seem to be able to get Rad, Kin and Emp its odd, are there no other defenders at 50 these days?)

A bad invul tanker tends to die. A bad stone tanker tends to survive while the team dies.

I don't get this. Such simple black and white contrasting. Such flippant pigeon holing. I do not understand.

In both sentences the team aren't accounted for as though they can do no wrong.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thats with the assumption the team play in the same manner. With a stone tank you dont really have to watch their health, you have to watch to make sure they have the agro. With an inv you have to be more health concious, on average, but their aura, the speed at which their powers recharge (meaning gauntlet and taunt) and their combat movement means its much easier for them to hold the agro.

It is very rare to see a Granite die. Its not uncommon to see a dead team except the Granite. A good Granite holds agro seamlessly but there seems to be a bigger divide between good and bad for stone tanks in Granite than for any other tank when it comes to agro holding. I'm always more nervous if I see a tank in Granite and I'm playing a squishy than with any other tank. I will slowly test the agro control rather than assume they will do a good job.

Side note, Syn's an excellent stone tank and I feel comfortable letting rip with my blaster when teamed with him. But he's not the average player

Well done, I cant even get a corruptor into the teens

A bad invul tanker tends to die. A bad stone tanker tends to survive while the team dies. I know which I'd rather team with, cause one you can help.

I much prefer invuls for most situations and with invince putting them at the def cap for most things (with tough and weave) you can often find them just as survivable, if played well.

My vote goes invul (my highest tanker is a WP at 33 and the rest of mine are much lower. I'm going on what I find easier to team with)

Didn't I only post you grats the other day? Another one? Well grats on another 50

Energy Aura, Super Reflexes & Ice Armour are defence based sets - others such as stone, invul, wp etc use combinations of resistance/defence or in the case of wp includes +Regen and -foe ToHit

[/ QUOTE ]

If you're going to count Energy Aura am assuming you're taking villains too. Which means 4, Ninjitsu

cool, so 10am, in Faultline, be there or......... um well don't I guess

It sounds like a great laugh to me. Defenders are awesome

We carrying on with the Fault arcs right?

I have to say Apparently on MA cause I cant stand playing it myself either.

Yeah Shockwave Vs Boss is good
