Umm.. thats pretty much how it used to be...

Read the original Op . I was in and responded before he edited.

ediited to add:: O wait!! You can't. Also? I reported your post as offtopic,Gavinperson.

Start small then and request the devs remove travel suppression in zones. That way IF new people come in they can at least learn the basics of avoidance as being a necessary pvp tool in their characters arsenal. I want to add that with fitness becoming an inherent many people that previously had trouble with builds will be more open to possibly taking two travels and learning the benefits of doing so and the reason WHY a pvper might need that. Baby steps...



Who knows? After all this time maybe they(devs) would be willing to make a few small concessions and still be able to save face.



edited to add: pve people on the boards seem all on top of invis once they dont have to take Fitness. God forbid these players figure out how to use phase in a pvp zone!!!!!<-------lil snark there.

Seriously? It would be nice if all the above happenned.

[QUOTE=Misaligned;3178541]Read much? Or just jump in and spout what you feel for the world to bask? Way to miss the point that a) You don't NEED purples and b) you don't NEED to be 50 to be perma.

Quoting the other part you missed in your careful reading:



Seems that I never said this was a OMGsocheapyoucanbuilditwithSOs build, did I?

And yes, while some people play Dominators because they were fun, this doesn't mean that Dominators haven't gotten a bad rep for being expensive to build to effective levels. Some people play petless masterminds because they're "fun" for them. It still doesn't wipe away the bad rep.

THIS is a link to a thread going on the front page of this forum. See the 1st response. The general assumption is that a) you need to spend a boat-load on your dom and b) that you can't begin the actual build for it until you get to 50.

In fact, you yourself in this very same thread suggest that the person make a brute... because Doms are only good for +2 (I assume you mean x2 as you said the brute could be +8). And you're here jumping over me about... what exactly?

Actually... I am fairly puzzled with what your exact problem is with my post? You think this information should not be shared? You think that only people who are... nope. Can't come up with anything. Do you just feel the need to argue?

But hey, thanks for your 2 cents. Next time, try reading for comprehension before telling someone off. ( end of what I was quoting and dinner is almost ready so I am not redoing my whole post).


I read very well. I also comprehend what I read regarding dominators based on practical play experience since City of Villians release. You made a post suggesting that dominators have been touted " not viable" unless perma. You made a post suggesting that you made the first ever perma dom before level 50 while at the same time inferring that perma is not necessary. I simply stated that your "barely" perma build is just as expensive as most level50 full perma builds.I concluded with the point that perma domination was never necessary for a dominator to play well in the hands of a domlover either befor or after the debatable dom"buff".

If the archives before the new forums were still here any player would be able to look up multiple threads regarding dom play and "perma' prior to 35 before purples even existed in the game.

You rubbed me the wrong way with " You've been told". I hate to bring this up but I seriously doubt you have managed to make 10 level 50 dominator's since your registration date of July 2010. You didnt tell most dom forum readers ANYTHING they don't already know and you also didnt achieve anthing that hasnt been done before . Your post is snarky. I recognize snark. That's another area at which I excel...... Queen of Snarkisms!

Anyway? I'm happy for you and the fun you are having. But perma has never been a necessity for dominator's to be successful archetypes. Perma is icing on the cake. Nothing more. When you can tell me something I don't already know then insult me. So? Get over your little snit..... like I said " No U been told, brothah".

Edited to add that brutes are superior farmers to dominators under the current system. You alluded to a post I made regarding that issue. If a player wants a farmer then a brute is the best candidate for that redside. I am not going to mislead a player .I do not sugarcoat. Sorry.I also stated that depending on what the players idea of successfull time vs reward would play a part in the choice of brute or dominator.

If being honest is a crime throw me in ******* jail.

What you have there is just as expensive as any good lvl 50 perma build.

No, U been tolded brothah....

In addition, perma isn't now and never has been the end all be all. Some people played dominator's because they were fun.

Alpha is a great leader and a good fella to volunteer for this unwanted spot. Why capa are you jumping all over Vixen? At least she tried to put something together and always has a sunshiney attitude. If you don't like the way something is going then lead your own.

As to kickin the regen... thats what chem nukes are for. Just time them appropriately. Hope you guys do this soon because I am getting sick of the server on which Hottie and Femme originated always being last in line to complete ANY new content when compared to other servers. Don't you all have any competitive pride?

I'm sure someone will make the obligatory" gtfo,Ditzy" remark. I think it might be in the best interest of people to pm the people that lead this one:http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=233930

or maybe even this other one:http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=235897

Get some pointers and go from there. People from other servers are not gonna bite you and they also dont have cooties( at least most don't).

Welcome back ,RR!

Big gratz on the great raid last night ! You guys//gals rock!! 2 rounder coming up?

I'm not sure what your productivity threshhold tolerance is....if you want to do +8 expediently I recommend a brute. If you don't mind +2 for the same amount of time than make a fire//earth//fire dom or a fire//psi//fire.

Or you can go get a shivan from BB. Eat purples... eat big tier reds and 4 shot him.

[QUOTE=ArwenDarkblade;3157707]This "over analyzing" that you speak of is exactly why Justice is the raid server. It is why we can have 50 random people show up and still make a raid work. If it weren't for people early on, especially Q, who dissected, scrutinized, and came up with strategies that work (and work well), then WE would be the server that cries for Hami help, and not the server who answers the call.




You DON'T have 50 or 49( raid leader + those random) people show up and make a raid " work" and you KNOW it.

See what I did there with the "overanalizying" thing? ;P

Whatever. I really dont give a **** if you all diss me. I sent Nuclear a pm 2 or 3 days ago with the answers to what he asked. Not my problem if he doesn't use it and also not my problem if perhaps I told him a strat he already knew.. I really don't think he would have asked about nuke and eoe timing if that were the case though. TBH, its not top secret info... been around since hc people started stretching after hami got revamped. I mean really? Any raider with the raid dynamic down( yea all teams etc) could figure it pretty quickly if they ever participated in what y'all call a one or two rounder.Any of you could have answered his questions by simply thinking outside the"JUSTICE" BOX . But "no" more fun to be an *******.Another fact is Justice has one thing going for it over other servers... solid yellow teams.. always. So? To those of you that say " we include blah blah".. ********. You include" blah blah" because as Pumbumbler said a page or so back THIS server has behind the scenes people that show on a regular basis to carry the raids. Hami success is influenced by a very small percent regarding "raid leaders". Other servers knock it out faster and have just as much fun.

Why a pm? Mod12 aint got nothin on most of you all. That worked great,huh?

Ok.. The way I understand this whole thread regarding "whatever" rounders.. hero's finally figured out they can drop a nuke ONCE and omit two blooms thus cutting around 8 minutes off a hami raid. Villians have never had the choice if they wanted a raid in under an hour a bio is a necessity. In fact, many wouldn't even do red raids because the preparation just took too much time( so hard to go get a ******* nuke,huh?). So? I don't get the arguement here really. Drop your bios twice in a raid and kill hami in 20 minutes... everyone gets their merits.. everyone is happy. If you want to make it quicker than dont retreat at all and call for raiders ALL to pop an eoe twice in the raid.. big whoo.

So much analyzing for no good reason. The public has proven they want more for less. Such is the mantra of the gaming world.

EdiTed because if I were typing about a brand spankin new hami raid group my " big whoo" would not fly.You guys arent brand, spankin new . Quit overanalizing. Go .. Eat EOE... Drop a bio... kill hami.. HAVE FUN!!

Can we have another HTTT glory day? I miss that. We kicked *** way back when everyone said we couldn't.

Whats your challenge? For someone to give you a build to make your suckass elec//elec a pvp contendor? Ok.... take taunt ... get a team.... learn to evade and use phase and self heals. Toss in webnades so your team can spike a target. Thats pretty much all you need . That work? You got one thing going for you. You have more HP than half the people that ask for the same things on these boards. If you dont like it... ask Castle why he screwed up pvp.


^^^^ not a RP.

edited to add you slot for max hp bonuses and some tohit. Youre damage will never even be a factor because your roll is a meatshield so your team picks off slow players.

Edited again to add a tanker is better at this roll than any brute.
