Dispari

I practically never use capes, and rarely use wings. If we had quivers and swords to throw on our backs, I'd buy them all too. Animated or not.

Ugh, so what? Jounin have apparently carried around three katanas since CoV launched. I hate all the costume related excuses the devs give us that keep us from getting a gigantic amount of costume parts for reasons that make no sense.

Besides, we have combat auras and the vanguard shield. I really can't believe that they couldn't do a combat katana. If nothing else, a static katana on the back is good enough. Geez.

I'll keep my AV-soloing pets who allow me to kill GMs thanks. I don't need them to be perma, I need them to inject a huge dose of pain when the situation calls for it.

I expect EA does okay considering it still manages good RES, DEF, regen, and a heal. Even if it's not quite as durable as WP, it has good perks for endurance and recharge. I plan to try it out when Titan Weapons come around.

But it gives RES, recov, better endurance reduction than Oblit... I'm sure it could be better, all I'm saying is it's different. Which is good or bad depending on who you ask. I think it's good. I'm also WP so I wouldn't be going to Oblit for +DEF anyway.

Yeah I could dip into other pools and devote slots to a power (not that I would), but this means I don't have to. I like having it provided for me, in my primary.

The rule of five thing is also a nuisance. Since so many sets melee characters have gives those exclusively (melee ST, melee AoE, DEF, heal). I'd much rather have 5 +5%s + 1 +6.25% than have 6 +5%s. Because that means I have to slot at least one of those powers differently, with something that isn't recharge at all. So I'm not just trading down to a minor loss of -1.25%, I'm actually losing the entire 6.25%. If I already have 5 powers that take +5%s, having yet another one does me no good. It's already an issue I have to work around on some DEF-based characters.

I'm definitely not saying Posi is better than Oblit. In fact I'm already using one Oblit set. And I tend to use a lot of Oblits. If SS only took PBAoE sets I'd work around it and be okay with that. All it means is the set gives some options for unconventional set bonuses that the AT doesn't usually get. Kind of like how Demon Summoning gives a melee set option. It works for some people and not for others.

As long as it's free, I'll eat it and not complain.

Beggars can't be choosers, I've been told. There's also something about a gift horse.

I'm personally glad I can get a +6.25% recharge instead of having to go Oblit for +5%. I always have to juggle sets around on melees who have far too easy access to +5% and not the others. ST Melee, AoE Melee, DEF, and Heal all do +5%. Something different, please!

If my dinner is free I don't think I'll complain.

Well, I'll stick with my Spinning Strike that does 130 damage and you can keep using Whirling Axe (62 damage) or Dragon's Tail (81 damage) or Burst (86 damage) which do "more damage" if you want. I'm not theory-crafting either, because I've been playing StJ and I have no problems hitting people. Maybe it's a PEBCAK issue.

Did you ever say what server you guys are on? If you're around Virtue, I could use some leveling buddies while my friends are busy moving.

I like it. I imagine that I kick a guy and cause him to go spinning, and his flailing limbs hit all the people around him.

It's not inherently good, or bad. It's different. Different is there to keep all sets from just being clones of eachother. This particular different may not be for you. But that's okay.

Both powers set a flag to stop them from stacking with themselves. But they're considered totally different powers despite having identical stats. You can't (easily) stack Vengeance, or (easily) stack TT:V, but you can have one of each no problem.

I know, because I have a widow with TT:V and I do it all the time.

I have no trouble hitting enemies with it. In fact it can be even better at it by virtue of being able to "aim" the attack in the many circumstances where the enemies aren't perfectly circling you for whatever reason. I've even observed that if the enemies are as tightly packed around you as you say, hitting an enemy in front of you can still hit someone behind you.

It also synergizes with a cone better, since you have to have enemies clumped in an area in one spot rather than all around you if you have any plans of actually using a cone attack to its potential. I've never been a fan of "wade in, wade out" for traditional PBAoE + cone sets.

So enhancement slots are a steal at their current price because every player is supposed to have 200 characters? Am I supposed to just make characters so I can feel the "value" of those enhancement slots, or am I expected to actually somehow play 200 characters across every server? Actually, don't answer that. Because either answer is dumb.

It is at least worth noting that Vengeance has no problem stacking with the widow copy of Vengeance regardless of your timing.

You can't be that attached to him. A different one shows up every time. You don't even bother to ask their names, you just call them all the same name. You may as well name them all Timmy.

I'm not sure why examples for these types of things always assume you have over a hundred characters, which "proves" it's pretty cheap. I could do the same thing in reverse. 1 server with 1 character for a total of $20 per character! That's pretty damn expensive!
