When the new Water Blast set comes out I was going to grab it and start a new toon (not like I need yet another toon ).

My question is...what do you think would be better (for itrials/bosses/AVs, etc....)? WB/Cold Dom. or WB/Poison?

Kind of leaning towards WB/Cold but....what's your take on it?

Mainly thinking of itrials and what not and what would be the best for -res (and -regen).

Maybe all of the secondaries got re-worked into something fun and less meh?

I'll just say that I, too, hate the AI help NPCs bug that spawns them at Lt. instead of Boss (or higher) if your diff. is set at no bosses.


To be honest I didn't know that worked like that...


Now I know! Maybe now the AI won't die in 2 hits....

Wow that's weird indeed heh...3 groups at the same time doing the TF


I think someone on Liberty mentioned they did it in 3 hours...but maybe what Neuronia said is true...can get it down to 2 if you know what's what....*shrugs*

I love me some sniping!


*darn spies always trying to backstab me though*

Yeah, PPD Ghosts are very cheat-y I think. The -30% tohit AND -30% def?! Really?!

Oh yeah...it can stack too...

Seriously they are my primary targets when I'm doing those type of missions. If I get hit by one of those; I just sit out the rest of the fight (depending; but especially true if I'm solo). Real fun


The other 'cheaty' mob is Longbow Lieutenants when they get their -res grenade(s).

That power does -res...okay no big deal right? Oh wait, there is that 1-3 second hold that is at the very beginning of the attack...Hmm, TA's -res field doesn't do a hold....weird...

Also the fact that if there are more than 1 lt in a group; all Lts can fire the grenade off for 3 x the -res! Ugh...


I think they should be like the CoT Behemoths (the +def invincibility toggle ones) where only 1 -res grenade can be used from that mob group.

Yes, this is an old idea and forgive me if there's a topic already (couldn't find one) but...


As much as I love the new power sets that have come out is there a way that new power sets could NOT have some "mechanic" in it?

I love StJ, Staff Fighting, (and soon) Water Blast (and in the future Nature Affinity) but...I wouldn't mind a power set every now and then that just works and no wondering about a mechanic to maximize the potential of an attack.

Although a part of me wonders if the devs do put the stacking mechanic in the new power sets on purpose or not...*shrugs*


Just rambling...

heh well thanks I guess


I blame it all on @difoj



But uh...



I'm not as young as you may think I am Ukase...

Close but no cigar. Did 2 runs tonight; first run came the closest I think (23/100 HP); second run got him down in the 20s too...just not sure the exact #.


I (we) just need to practice/work on the moving away and then going back to Tyrant asap.


I think the 'Air Crackling' message happens every 45s or so? If so, then I could set a timer/stop watch/etc, and every 43s I say, "move" so that people have more time to read/respond and go away from melee range of tyrant and then the attack happens, we move back into melee range of tyrant.


Also, depending on judgements, but use judgements while running away from Tyrant.


Possibly if we get really coordinated, coordinate Rebirth usage. Sometimes have 2-3 go off when only 1 is needed...might help a bit.



First run; we did lore pets out as soon as cutscene ended and then again at 5 min mark.

Second run; we waited to use lore pets until 50/100.

Possible suggestion is to wait until 40/100....50 might be too soon.


Overall, we got the Hard Way badge at least (2nd run) so..that was a nice thing

We'll triumph yet!

Just let me know when the first sighting of "Hungry?! Grab a Snickers! #cityofheroes" shows up.

I think I've asked this before but...how long does it take for you guys/gals to take Tyrant down usually?

The full 19.5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc...?

Just two points real quick...I haven't seen all of the video from yesterday but...


1.) The audio and video were not synchronized perfectly on my end...I could tell it was off by just a bit.

and


2.) Zwill started out a Coffee talk without a hat? (yes I fast forwarded to when he had a hat on at the very end)....

Well I'm a bit derpy...looking at all the people that have received the Really Hard Way badge and was getting jealous (a bit ).

One of my reasons for not trying to lead one is I wanted the level shift bug to be fixed (so that all 24 people/pets get level shifts) but then realized...duh, with the RHW badge, no lights go out; so it doesn't matter if level shifts work or not.


Derp, derp...


Sooo...if possible I'd like to try to lead a RHW badge attempt (not a Mo run; we can try but really just aiming for the RHW badge) this coming Sat. night (the 16th)...maybe around 7 or 8 pm EST?

I don't know if that interferes with a Hami raid or anything....don't want to step on any toes....

Congrats to all


Liberty will be up there 'soon'...


With me back at work (night shift) I'm usually to tired to do a MoMag run so don't play until the weekends.


Liberty will rise!

EMH season 1 was great...

EMH season 2?! Ehh...I don't know it seems very sporadic and hap-hazardly put together to me. I've watched all of season 1 and while I was watching the first episode of season 2 I was like, "did I miss an episode or something?" "Is this really the first episode of season 2?"

The last episode of season 2 I've seen was about 2-3 weeks ago....*shrugs* Season 2 is still okay but...definitely not season 1 good, in my opinion.
