  1. Hey everyone, keep in mind all bets need to be received by this Thursday, the 22nd.

    I've got 2.8 billion in bets so far.

    Fix'd.

    Yes yes, knowing is half the battle, but what is the other half?

    An equal distribution of red and blue lasers.

  5. None of my characters are incarnates of specific deities. They've simply reached levels of power they didn't have before.

    As an example, my Sand/Fire tank can now project his fire outwards (Pyronic Judgement), spread the protection of his sands to his teammates (Barrier), and leave lasting burns that cripple enemies (Paralytic Interface).

    My Bots/Traps fires a giant chain lightning attack out every once in a while when his supply is charged enough, has a cloud of repairing nanites the can spread every so often, upgraded his lasers to shred armor, and summons a new pair of bots every so often.
  6. If I were a betting man, and I am, I'd wager that the Celestial Armor will only remain T9 VIP until it "rotates out," at which point it will become a purchasable booster pack. This rotation cycle will probably be about six month, and after that everyone will be able to buy it. But for now, they're keeping it as an exclusive reward for the long time players.

    I have no problems with that.
  7. There is only one name I wanted, but I could not get it.

    "Curse"

    Such is life.

    I've made a couple chars since the new issue hit. a Dark/MA tank
    Get out of my head. I've actually rerolled that tank as Dark/MA. He's going to be so much more survivable and tank capable than he ever was.

    Of course it can be. The only question is are you willing to make other sacrifices in the build to hit the S/L softcap?

    Me? I'm going with the "damn survival, I'll just kill 'em faster" method.

    Incorrect. That purchase will be for all characters.

    I think something in Cold or Storm has confuse protection.

    It's either that or powers that cause confuse... I'm not right sure. But that's where I'd start looking.
  11. Your price is a bit above average, but if you still haven't sold the thing, I'll take it off your hands for 1.5 billion.

    Or somehow, like in my fight last night, I spend half the time confused and we still killed him.

    So... is that a ternary fight?

    Especially if you have a whole rainbow of colors.

    I'm tempted to start a Beam/Traps Ghostbuster superteam.

    New Brawl Sounds

    I'm pretty happy with the changes, myself.

    I actually like that they're simple and not too flashy. What would you rather they do? Toss the rifle up in the air, spin around, catch the rifle, and somehow manage to land a shot after all that?

    This is where I'm at, but between Envenom and Disintegrate, I seem to be dropping things pretty damn quickly.

    I realized last night that I can get a total of -63.75% resist out all by myself before Achilles Heel procs.

    This is going to be one hell of an offensive combo.
  16. I'm not sure whether my League was lucky last night or if my Bots/Traps is just that good, but we tore him to pieces.

    I don't really know what was going on. I was confused (the status effect) a few times, but I kept on laying my traps down and when I wasn't getting shot by my own bots I had them shoot the Avatar. Somehow, he died.
  17. HOLY HELL GUYS.

    Beam Rifle / Poison hits HARD.

    Just sayin'.
  18. Yeah, I'm not going to say it's in a super obvious spot, but I think under "prompts" was the most appropriate place.

    Sure thing, you can have that yesterday.

    Next time, look for the option to do so, first.

    dark/ help

    Honestly? I might reroll my Sand (Dark Armor colored tan) tank as Dark/Martial Arts instead of the Dark/Fire that he is now.

    I'd be able to build less for defense (thanks to the +def power) and get a ton more +HP and recharge, while maintaining respectable damage thanks to the +damage power. Martial Arts will allow for stacking stuns with Oppressive Gloom as well. It even fits his concept more.

    The most important thing for you to build into your tank is the Theft of Essence: Chance for +endurance IO. Place that in Dark Regen and it will be an endurance recovery tool.

    Shadow Slip

    I'm planning to respec into it, both for concept and convenience reasons.

    Right now my Warshade is on the run from his fellow SG mates in the isles. He's even gone to Rogue alignment. It'll be a great power to justify his ability to evade them.

    I also play the character "out of character" enough on blueside that being a Rogue is very inconvenient. This will take a lot of the pain out of the travel, and it's not like I'd need to travel more than once every two minutes (Keep in mind the amount of recharge my Warshade has).

    His current build is here. I'll be swapping Nebulous Form out for Shadow Slip, so I don't lose anything I make great use out of.
  22. If you're going to have fun trying it, just buy it. You should have the points to burn, anyway. I know that's what I'm doing. I don't have very many corruptor/blaster/defender types, but I like the concept I have worked up for one.

    I raise my glass to you, and have yourselves a Rusty Nail as well.
  24. That was ... really odd. I clicked the Edit Signature button and ... it was all fixed. I didn't have to do anything except save signature.

    Odd.
