Fire_Bomb

Something that happended to me while fighting freaks. Was killing a few freaks (kinda quickly) everything was going fine when in the middle of a fight my bots run away keep re-doing orders to get them back but they kept trying to run away so i follow them and it turns out they were running back to a freak they killed that rez'd themself.

I've never seen them act like this before (with other baddies not just freaks) not sure if its a bug or WAI. Didn't have the problem for the rest of the mission.

Either way this is really annoying, something that really put me of playing my MM before I7 was that pet commands were very buggy in teams and this bug kinda has the same effect but solo.

Anyone else had this problem with bots or other pets?

something i've wanted to try for a while now but when i test it out on the test server it just seems rubbish the damage is poor and my end goes before i can beat anything (with stamina as well)
could really use some tips
(can't find any up to date game guides)

i still have lots of fun on my fire/ice tank. it was a lot more fun during I4 but i can still have lots of fun now (and imo its loads better then anyother tanks set )

i've tried axe a few times always found it to slow and i'm not a big fan of the look (needs to be bigger imo) i'm sure when the next big upgrade comes that lets us chop off limbs it'll become very good

I've just had to remove a fair chunk of this thread.

Please don't hijack threads where people are tring to organise a play session to express your opinions about the style of play they are organising.

If you genuinely feel that the dozens of previous threads discussing people's opinions and feelings about power levelling haven't covered the subject completely enough, feel free to start a new thread about the subject.

Thanks.

would've thought NCsoft and cryptic would hate P/L since it leads to a bunch of other things that can damage an MMO badly (selling accounts and organised farming)

Can someone spell out the problem for me with the change because i just dont see one.

auto turret has a long recharge and isn't great for damage, you can't move it in any way other then recal friend which makes it more useful as it's less of a one hit wonder. with this change once you've placed it, its stuck there.

• Many objects in the game which were meant to be immune to Teleportation have been made so. This affects several powers in the Traps Secondary and Gadgets secondary for players.

was looking forward to getting auto turret at level 38 on my AR/dev blaster and using teleport to move it around but this change looks like it's going to make the devices set less useful
i haven't got any experience of devices at that level so maybe i'm worng
notes found here

i think the thread should be continued can't let bridger have his evil ways

anyone dare to start a new one?

maybe it got to big and had to be removed for safety reasons?
that's the only reason i'd be ok with it being removed otherwise i'm kinda annoyed

hopefully i'll be able to make it (need the badges), fire bomb lvl 50 fire/ice tank

if you've still got space i'd like to do it, fire bomb lvl 50 fire/ice tank

bit of topic but do flying baddies still run off at 100mph when stuned?

you get both however you can stun a boss quickly (as long as you don't miss)
i'd go for beanbag myself the animation on stun is a bit long and bean bag is more likely to hit

the earth epic powers has a AoE stun that might work but don't think it would be very good (takes a while to recharge as well) has an AoE sleep but that's not going to help

how i plan on using time bomb when i get it (only lvl 32 atm) is after setting up trip mines, use smoke grenade (smoke grenade+cloak=invis) then go next to whatever the target is and plant the bomb, wait then use the trip mines

i'll be there if i can need the badges still, will bring my fire/ice tank.

quick question anyone know if there's any difference in strength between corruptor buffs/debuffs and defenders?
i know there is with controllers (about 25% i think) but haven't seen anything about corruptors

boost range only changes the range you can take the shot from, cone angle and AoE doesn't change , still very useful if you want to PvP however (good tactic is to boost range snipe then run in and use total focus takes out most ATs)
can be useful in PvE but you can get on without out it imo

thx for the info, just going to be more patient and avoid DE (which seem to take up all level 32+ missions )

just something i've noticed on my ma/regen scrapper recently is i seem to miss a little to often even with 2 acc SOs in everything, other scrapper sets don't seem to miss anywhere near as much.
i know most other sets have -def debuff but MA is meant to (as far as i know) have a bigger inate accuracy boost, probably just me but want to know if anyone else has noticed.

been fighting a lot of DE recently so maybe they're just hard to hit.

one of my little battle bots seems to enjoy going up to freaks and hit'em in the nuts
does this to EBs as well but never seems to get attacked

just something i was thinking about after a few to many trips to PPD jail
does the teleport debuff (that stops you teleporting out) stop lightning rod working? anyone tried using it in a jail?

only problem i can see with this is that sometimes there's a boss right next to PPD jails in mayhem missions and you might not be able to use that move.

from a story point of view i think the way into missions is they travel through space hunting khelds and can basically pop up anywhere.

(technical reason is they pop up for mobs that can't hold a quantum rifle)

is odd that the mobs don't attack voids but this game is based on comics so it's never going to make complete sense

there still space for this badge? if so i'd like to join
