1) Banes are sub par relative to the other SOA.
2) Some people won't team with ATs/powersets they think are sub par.
3) Bane spiders do not function as well without a team.
4) Put 1, 2 and 3 together.

Emboldened for extra visibility, since a lot of people seem to miss this when they respond.

I have great difficulty fitting entire Gilbert & Sullivan numbers into mine.

Well it looks like popular opinion is fine to pay a micro-transaction for the pre-order extras (me included), so I don't see a problem with it.

It wouldn't be right to give them away for free as having the pre-order is kind of a reward for loyalty, but if everyone else has to pay for them then the people who got them originally can still feel a bit special.

My Robotics names, guess the theme :P

Drones:
Kotus 672
Kotus 159
Kotus 834

Protector Bots:
Fujikoma
Tachikoma

Assault Bot:
Bonaparte

Yes but he's at least being polite to the devs.

On topic: It would be a field day for min/maxers but since there's so many diverse builds already this could work (be a nightmare to implement though).

*turns on jiggle*

*walks 2 feet forwards*

*gets faceplanted via blunt head trauma*

*jiggle deactivates*

I think the point is that he's gone to town on both a Bane and NW, and found that the Bane comes out on top.

It may be he's discovered a way to play Banes that everyone's missed so far.

£9.99 at B&Q I hear...

Indeed. I'd rather be able to take care of an upstart soldier via bullet to the head, rather than having to worry about them regenerating or being taken back to the workshop.

Except that the new official mids isn't done yet

Strange to hear GG talking about VEAT bugs, since when are you ever going to play one? :P

There's an unofficial version on the US forums, do a google search for "Issue 12 mids" and you should find it.

Just remember that some can't be taken together i.e Build Up and Follow Up.

And the start of CoV as we lol it!

This is why most people fall down when trying Villains.
You just can not compare villains to heroes.
If you say for example a brute is a tank or a stalker is a scrapper then you stay playing very badly and do not enjoy the experience.
So villains are villains, heroes are heroes and VEATs are VEATs, just don't compare them to hero AT's and play them as villains a totally separate AT and you'll enjoy it alot more.

Yes but who was comparing villains to heroes?

The OP was it seems:

Looking at the videos/info seems that this AT are stalkers/defenders/blasters (claws, assault riffle, and psi).

But I was QFT-ing on a general level since I've seen people do it so often.

Now that's out of the way, anybody else got thoughts on this?

oh no, jump kick does far too much damage

Doesn't make it any less entertaining.

Anyhoo, enough thread derailing.

whats up with people and pirates? imo its a stupid idea

[/ QUOTE ]

Ninjas vs Pirates, it's a long standing tradition grasshopper.

Guys, found something with the extra costumes.

Hope it's not a bug that gets fixed, but when you get your second costume at level 10 DON'T AMEND IT. The first costume gets copied to the second slot, so if you instead alter your primary costume you end up with two Arachnos uniforms.

Please DON'T fix this devs!

But Pirates would be even cooler than ninjas

I don't really know much about ninjas, I have heard they can be retty squishy though. I'd suggest putting full slots in all your heals.

One problem I see is that Twilight Grasp needs you to stand with your minions which may cause you problems with PBAoE's (I.e CoT Ruin Mages).

Any experience ninja MMs out there?

Huge post is HUEG!

I may have something to say on this later, once my eyes recover o_O
