Fanservice

I'm hoplessly useless at CoV when it comes to messages, can someone send one to @Cyadine when i'm about? I'd love to join in on this if you'd have me!

Now I just got to think of a concept, hmm...

Grant Invis however and the other stealth power pool powers could be handy. Grant Invis the FF Gen and you could use the old SS/Stealth combo to lay the mines ect and have Phase for those panic moments.

Sadly the FFG seems to resist grant Invisiblity, never seems to work for me.

I'd say the gems of the set are Acid Mortar, Posion trap and FFG. Posion trap is rediculously good as a large AoE hold, makes me feel like a Dominator at times

My robots are slotted with three (tier 1) or two (rest) acc SOs and I have triple-slotted Tactics and Envenom from my poison secondary.

Defense is futile!

O.o You must REALLY hate missing!

I use two accuracy SO's in all my Mercenaries, no tactics and even on ruthless against Purps I rarerly see them miss (Only got to 32 so far though bear in mind also I kinda get a benefit with Mercs that if they miss it's not so bad, since they fire so often)

I think your slotting with tactics is fine, can't wait to get a respec so I can pick up Tactics myself!

Broadcast is generally full of idiots, but then that is hardly restricted to PvP zones.

I personally have no issues ignoring it, I have no understanding of people who feel they need to respond just because someone threw some badly spelled childish abuse at them. In fact if someone wants to pause to type in a PvP zone, they're more than welcome to as far as I'm concerned.

It's funny when a rant ends with a sudden "Argh TPFoe'd you cheap $£*"$(£^"("

... yeah i'm a horrible person

I'd be up for some craziness again!

Malovence 31 MM/Traps.

Edit: Should easily make it on time, my Lecture isn't on this week. See ya there! Oh and what's the level cap for powers on it?

On a related topic... Are two defense enhancements really useful in Protector bots? I was thinking that the defense from the forcefields they provide could be not worth slotting... maybe two heals.

Each bubble gives %7.5 defense, so when you get 2 protectors they double up on the tier 1 and 3 pets giving them %15 defense to all (%18 when 3slotted for def).
Most definitely worth it.

Add in a 3 slotted Forcefield Generator...mmmm....

Oh sorry!

At a glance you can lose the End reduction from web grenade (Since it barely costs anything) and the Recharge from equip weapons (While convinent, it's really not anything mroe than that) Also the hold from Posion trp should become a recharge, since the Hold occurs a hell of a lot regardless of slotting (But shush don't tell the devs!)

I would really, really take posion trap.

It's one of the best powers in the trap pool along with Acid Mortar, it's a very large AoE, has -regen causes enemies to choke and vomit a LOT seriously reducing the damage your taking. It's also non inturraptable, so you can lay it while people beat on you for some respite. It basically allows you to lock down a huge mob of enemies for a good length of time.

PvP it's great too, the vomit animation is really long, and the enemy can't do a thing while in it allowing you to aid self, and whittle down health while they're unable to even pop an insp, people rarely resist it either.

I'd think your nuts to not take Posion trap!

Then again, Blasters are ten-a-penny, how often can you get an Empath that likes to press the healy buttons?

Just like to say thanks to all who came, was good fun, and the final encounter was definetly something to remember!

Funny, thats they way I enjoy MM free PvP too

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, TPFoe can be a fastest fingers first game sometimes :/

As long as they're not sitting in thier base I don't have a problem with it, since I tend to get in thier face pretty fast anyway.

Speaking on this, why don't corrupters get a twin pistols power set?

I know I shouldn't take attacks really, but I can't help it on my Thugs MM, they look so badass!

I always thought some Empaths go a bit far on the "Let's massivly overheal my group" thing. we'd go quicker if they mixe in some attacks too. I mean sure there's not much hope we'll die, but that's not efficent, just safe!

I love my TA/Archer, the animations aren't flashy yet, but they all gel so well and it looks good and plays good too.

Glue and Acid arrows are the biz

My MM is 30 and I tried Siren's recently, since this is my first character and I came out 22 kills for 6 deaths i'd say it's okay!

I'm Merc/Traps and usually I let them beat on me in bodyguard while my pets whittle them down, throwing out triages, acid mortars and posion traps (Which rule. Detoggle and long stunned animations can kill nearly anything!)

I've by TPFoe'd once or twice, but since i have teleport myself it's just a case of using it to book it back to your pets.....then TPFoe'ing them in return XD However it does take me a small year to kill tanks and FF trollers, anything else has dropped pretty fast so far. I once took 3 scrappers and killed two before having to run from the 3rd. I think they were all spines regen too, was wondering why they didn't use thier AoE's, I guess Impale is so imba it's not needed? O.o

Scrappers on their own are funny, run in start hacking away, pop all thier insps, panic, start trying to run and i'm not even off 90% health yet

Mercs/Traps isn't even the best PvP set from what i've heard, but I love it all the same. Just wish Serum didn't suck so much...

Way I deal with Empaths giving out CM is as said here. TPFoe empath. Watch my Mercs kill Empath in about 4 seconds. Repeat till Empath logs off and go back to actually enjoying CM free PvP again.

I wouldn't really know though, MM's don't really feel the pain off anything except AoE, and blissfully no one thinks to use that in Pvp

It has happened before though.
Defender attacks Mastermind with AoE

Don't post things like that! Everyone knows it's best to just try burst down the MM, just ignore the pets and you'll be fine. Trust me, would I lie to you?

Just thought i'd point out to all the "Buffs not nerfs" that if EM is truely pounding Squishys as said, buffing up all the other secondaries to it's levels is gonna lead to some exccedingly unhappy squishies.

I'd give it a try! Malovence Merc/Trap MM. @Cyadine in game if you want to remind me closer to the time, as i'll probably forget

Oh i've also only been playing for a week and a bit, and never done a SF before! So if you ever want to give advice along the way it's always appreciated.

Every odd level you get two new enhance slots. So EndRed(17) means you get the slot at 17 and put Endurance Reduction in it!
