Thanks a lot for that build....bit concerned about your statement for PvP..what do peeps see as the most viable spec for beating up heros then?

[/ QUOTE ]

anything but Dark Melee would be better for solo PVP...
the acc debuff is nothing compared to being able to disorient/knockdown like some of the other sets can... but DM does have a pretty good self heal, acc/dmg self buff and a great endurance recovery power

but you said you usually team with a corruptor, so if they can debuff while you smash you should be fine

Hi Perforate,

This is the build im planning on using once i get around to the 2nd respec mission

Now, other people will probably rip it to shreds as far as PVP goes, but TBH dm/da aint the best pvp combo to pick

You will want to pickup shadow maul pretty early on as its a great ability when leveling up, but the animation time sucks in PVP, as the heroes get to run as im swinging away rooted to the spot

after a really long session with all my toggels up, i couldnt sleep because i still had the drone in my head :x

so i found this page on the US forums
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showf...part=1#3796307
and have never been happyer


i put:
miasma_loop.ogg
obsidian_loop.ogg
whirlwind_loop.ogg

in ...\City of Heroes\Data\Sound\ogg\powers

and the headache stopped

gratz (but i thought his name was Master Lupus? )

i can run Dark Embrace, Obsidian shield, Murky cloud (all slotted 3 dmg res SO's 1 end red SO), along with Combat jumping (1 def buff SO) and Acrobatics (1 end red SO). (CoT missions suck)

With stamina, i can smash my way thru an entire mission of +1/2 minions only needing to rest after large group fights or a boss (time between mobs + Dark Consumption cooldown that pops up at just the right time keeps the endurance high ) have to limit myself mainly to Shadow punch and Brawl but the fury bar is always full(ish)


However, if a toggel drops at the wrong time, or an extra couple of mobs get attracted to the smash then im in a world of pain

my DM/DA brute hit 20 last night and I picked up stamina, i can now beat my way through crowd after crowd of even level mobs without taking a break. Ran the cape mission pretty quick solo and loved every second

im only a lvl 19 rad/rad defender but would love to join in if you ever get this off the ground

lol imagine the 8x am / irradiate spam


addicted to CoV at the moment though and would like to get my brute to 40 before i return to coh

yeh but.... oh


gonna hit my download cap for this month and be cut off for a few days
already installed and patched CoH (and pre loaded i6 twice), Coh test and CoV beta

forgive me if im being daft, but why cant you just rename the "City of heroes" folder to "CoHOLD", then rename the cov beta folder to "City of Heroes"?

no need to copy huge dirictorys this way... or am i missing something?
