Dead_Doll

Just to let me friends/SG know, Dead Doll or Listopad Won't be around for awhile, need a break and I kinda accidently got hooked On Tabula Rasa, Carpet Bombing 20+ mobs at once and shooting a chain gun, is just far too much fun :P

Mines storm for concept, i like thermal but plant/thermal just dosn't fit conceptualy, plants pluss fire, just seems wrong.. where as plant storm just fits so nice, but then my chars called Listopad Cien, translated is "November Shadow" or "Leaf fall Shadow".. so palnt pluss freezing rain, snow storm and stuff just goes so nice..

on other hand even at lev 22, seeds + ae immob + freezing rain = such a nice opener, cant wait to hit my lightning storm into it and carrion vines

youl be able to solo with your eyes shut with just the illu part of build, mines illu/storm and tbh any storm she casts is litraly just gravy..

Once sloted the decoys rip through stuff, add in a phantasm horror, everything is cowering, add in phantom, more stuff is falling over dead, add in frozen rain, everything is now falling over, cowering or hiting a decoy it can't hurt anyway :P then as I said the rest is gravy...

Ya got to admit though it sure feels good, seing it pop up so much, feels just like when my dom used to hit domination and get her message spamming on mobs so everyone knew what she was upto..

Ok seems nobody else wants to come here and ask, so umm whats the Overpower message I keep seeing so often now on my troller?

Is it a way for game to make us little trollers feel like were usefull at low level, while we watch rest team 1 shot mobs we take all day with, untill we level up and gain abilitys :P

Just got Volc Gas, WOW, was on a team lastnight at 26, most were 30 doing there aura misg, so 3 of us were stuck in bricks waiting so decided to fight the crey, while we waited..

Blaster 26 (with sk), 29 fire/kin and me (i had no Sk) So up runs blaster pulls huge group, Fire/kin for first time ever decides to leave his cages alone (bit of runing joke between us) With just Earthquake, quicksand and volc gas on them, the blaster and kin seemed so safe moping up it seemed silly, sadly alot of them gave me no exp due to lev, but then thats other reason i'm so thrilled I had such a effect on them

Atm I still do virtualy zero damage, basic tics off powers, my hold and the odd proc of quake or mass immob, but i'm realy looking forward to speed boosted stony

I have a Earth/kin named Dead Doll, her story sums up her name and earth is her power as she was quite simply put in the ground..

Also have Panda Pop. A Panda TA/A deffender..

Like this post btw, feel names are quite inportant in reality, my daughter is named Cirwen my son Draco, needless to say both are um rather unique in thier school, daughter still complains that if anyone says "Cirwen did it!" teachers come straight to her..

Sons name is bit of a nightmare as so many instantly think "ohh harry poter fan" but he was named after Draco the star constilation, not that blond evil kid, though ironicaly he is both blond and evil, (we also did a web search on famous Draco's, oddly everyone we found was evil :P

Global Name @Boni d'Age

Dead Doll

Server: union
Alignment Hero.
Origin: Natural
Archetype: Controler
Height: 4 feet

Known Powers/skills: Seems to have Earth control abilitys, aswell as some control over kinetics..

Biography:
Former partner to Dr Mort, a leading scientist turned necromancer.. She was belived accidenly killed, during the atempted arrest of the Dr, once his reserch was discovered, the Dr was finally arrested and fataly wounded not long after.. No body was ever recovered.

Hehe CoT Ruin mages were one of the reasons I switched to earth, screen shaking, foot stomping im loving it, sure my damage is poop, but then never did like blowing stuff up in games (though I am working on slipping a few procs into my skills)

On other hand, making everything fall over, get coonfused or move slow as hell, now thats my kinda fun, while team tears them apart..

I tend to drop my Quake, hit my Stalags then Quicksand the area now, after that I drop the odd hold or cast my Transfusion to help heal if needed, seemed to work great today in team killing lots of AV mobs

Muhahaha just got Earthquake, now Earth realy is fun!

Thats pretty much what I do, i drop QS so they all run in, get slowed, bunch up in nice pile, then drop the ae immob ontop, though now I use the Ae immob after a Stalags

The confusing part was the guy yelling that I must cast immob before him constantly, i realy dont see what diff before or after it would make to a tic on sleep mobs..

I tend lead with QS too as it makes rest hit easier due to lower deff, from what I read

Am I doing this wrong?


OK here is story, my baby earth/kin joined her first team at lev 8 today (was in duo with mates fire/kin to 8) team was about 5 trollers and few others, so tons control..

So I happily walk into a pull and start off with my usual, Quicksand, Stone cages (the ae imob) and some siphon power for the nice 20% buff with Transferance cast as needed (no healy types in team)

Then sudenly bang, the mind troller is ranting about how im purposly [censored] them off by not casting my ae immob before them and breaking there ae sleep?

NOw this totaly baffled me for 3 reasons

1- Even if I cast ae immob before his/her ae sleep, my tics will break there sleep anyway..

2- I cast my ae immob alot more than just once per fight..

3- what kinda monkey thinks AE sleep is usefull as a main control in a group with so much AE going off anyway!! let alone in a team with a Earth and a Ice troller throwing out Ae immobs :P

So what i'm wondering is was i doing this wrong, should I have just put my AE immob away and let the mind troller make us kill 1 mob at a time?

And what the hell difference does casting a AE immob with a damage tic, before or after a Ae sleep make anyway?

Luckily the fella buggred off just after anyway, followed by rest of us breezing through the icefire mish, where I happily used my Quicksand, ae immob, holds and transfusion, with not one complaint from team, who were great bunch btw

Wow tryed out earth/kin tonight, only lev 8, but duo with a fire/kin, between us were walking through hollows, killing whole groups of 10 white/yellow con mobs with no danger at all..

We even went to kill Thorns in perez at 6, all we could find were large groups of 3x red lietenants with there zergs of orange guards, bodys just hit the flore silly easy, as we focused our holds on the life mages, leting the earth and fire cages take out rest (took few blue insps though)

Totaly loving this

Thanks, Dead Doll is very fun, I find it hard to play a cha if I don't have a concept I like. My Polish Ubek, Dominator cha Zdrada, is on hold atm, simply because I couldn't get a trenchcoat yet too make her look like secret police..

Dead Doll seems get nice responce when she yells her battle cry of "Hug me, or I will destroy you!!" she often gets huged by team or laughed at for being so darn tiny..

Realy got get her more involved in RP though, SG member got me to give in and agree to be a SK on a 40+ group with her lastnight, it was great fun, she got to meet Cot Behamoths (ballrogs) she is still trying figgre out how the heck she is suposed to arest one!..

Shhhh me alts a Ta/a too, a panda :P

Nice ta hear guys, Dead Doll is great fun, often suicidal as there seem to sudenly only be TA/A deffenders around, no buffers or Healing.. Though I think there all just waiting to roll new Thermals :P

Mate is trying out a fire/emp to Duo with me atm, but groups seem quite easy to find as tanker so far..

Totaly loving way my lil tanker spins about, points her blade at a vil, to taunt it and let it know its next on her list..

I love my DB animations, but then my cha is a tiny 4ft Doll, so the ballet of death type moves realy suit her..

Tryed stone but that dumb hammer dosnt scale and she looked realy realy daft..

Tryed a baseball bat, but got so anoyed by her swinging it 1 handed, face it if yer gona smack someone with a bat, hold it with 2 hands for max impact, not fence with it..

Tryed Energy popm poms, but hated the sound effects, kept looking for the clicky when on mish :P

So umm whats wrong with DB? I love my 2 daggers, tried energy, but that constant thrum, thrum, thrum sound just drove me and my family nuts (play pc in living room)

But scaning these threads seems everyone and there dog goes for, stone or super strength?

So where are all the Duel Blade tankers ?

If you want a non-farming team, create a damn team, its not difficult anyone can do it. In fact lots of people do, I do and I hate leading teams. There are plenty of people who like playing the game because they like playing the game not because they want to make X XP/Prestige/Inf and hour.

I getting a little sick of the mind set that seems to think that everything should be provided for you and if it isn't then people who aren't doing what you want should be nerfed. I have spent quite a bit of time in Peregrin recently as I have two mid forty characters who need to get to fifty just like everyone else. Even if everyone else in the zone is farming they aren't actually doing me any harm, why the hell should I expect them to have their enjoyment ruined because I'm not teaming with them.

That seems to be the new mantra, if I don't like something I want to force everyone else out of the game.

Nothing in your post has any relevance to what I asked? I didn't ask for farmers to be nerfed, I simply wanted to know if as a new player in a old game, was there any point in rolling my preffered cha types (group suport) or should I roll a solo based cha..

Reason I asked was simple, having played these type games for over 10 years, they all seem to reach a point where solo play becomes more of a norm for new players..

Normaly this is easy to spot as its heralded by a string of forum posts of "What class spec soloes best"

I also asked due to lately I notice the abundance of low lev teams that even if you make them tend to degenareate into, 8 people standing around with own thumbs up [censored], or constant where next and actualy doing very little in way of missions..

I totaly understand that farmers have hit 50 and now just wana plow there fields for inf, espesialy now I have been informed that many are building inf for a future i12 cha..

But go ahead and rant if it makes you feel better, personaly, think I shall take a break till i12, that way I may get a better view of the game once more people are leveling again

Muhaha me rolled a Ta/a deffender, now this is fun, sooooooo many debuffs and none of the noise so no headache...

See what you guys meen, my fire/kin got to 9 and I already hate her, sure the flamy rings are rather pretty (sad realy same as my grav ae imob, but due to incredibly more visual, teams think i'm doing more) but the set just dosn't umm grab me, I just keep thinking i'm going to miss that fun singularity..

So guess i'm sticking to my Grav/kin, i'll just have try find a regular team

Been doing that, but so many people are to lazzy to reply it seems, but me and mate found a fix..

I went fire/kin, he has gone sonic/sonic, we figgre this way we simply duo and anyone who joins us is just bonus, but SG mate explained to me it should all change once i12 arives since atm, everyone with a 50 is just farming inf, ready for there new chars..

I realy hope he is right, since this is actualy first mporg where I realy do love groups..

OK day by day seems be less groups, aparently everyone just farmes now, so wondering, should I also just say sod it and roll a Fire/kin?

Seems to be a better idea lately to make a cha where grouping to level is a bonus not a requirment?

I love controllers but realy am wondering if my grav/kin should just go fire/kin, sure solo to 32 may take awhile but once get imps teams would just be a bonus I guess..

Well I been playing on my new Grav/kin and she is great fun too, ironicaly, my mate who sits next to me to play, missed my sonic/sonic so much, he went and rolled one, so tada the headaches are now stalking me lol...

She just loves the look, though we did catch her pretending to sulk, while stood in town the other day, when asked why she simply replied "I have to fit in though"

She got the whole goth thing from Dead Doll colectables, when she was six, she was afraid of the dark, so asked for one of the Dead Doll's, she said they scare the dark away (she has autistic spectrum, so has some very unique ideas) oddly enough, she never complained about the dark ever again

yeh mouse was fun, but her secondary realy realy gave me a headach after few hrs.. she will be remade with different secondary though..

made a little goth named dead doll atm though as finaly found nice concept for grav controller, she is haunted by a polterguist, named theador who likes to throw things, but its happy to throw stuff at vilans for her

toon looks scarely like my 10 year old little goth daughter too :P

But will deffinitly do another sonic/ deff..
