    This is definitely true. I've invited a few friends to come around and have a look, and the frequent intrusive downtimes were a major reason none of them have wanted to stay. It's worth noting that The Other Game (hated by all right-minded CoH subscribers, because god forbid you enjoy two games) has largely eliminated maintenance downtimes. People are often not prepared to tolerate them when alternative games don't have that handicap.
  2. I was wondering about building a character with this general approach in mind, but thought that Archery might be the better choice over DP. Rain of Arrows can scourge from its own damage ticks, it has slightly higher damage than HoB, half the recharge, a shorter animation, and most importantly can be used from range.

    Not sure how that would compare with an AR's FA/Flamethrower combo as I don't have an AR, but FA is a pretty narrow cone so imagine the LAoE of Rain of Arrows would give better coverage and thus more damage?
