Certainly no offence taken on my part. Sarcy is as Sarcy does after all. I love a bit of banter and welcome a battle of wits any time, even if the person I am fighting is unarmed...

And that was a stereotypicaly unfair and inaccurate stereotyping of Blasters, Fire or otherwise.

I've come across idiots in all AT's (including Blasters), but for some reason, we're still treated like the ginger stepchild by default.

Why is this?

[/ QUOTE ]

See, that's where you got me all wrong - the player in question was living up to a stereotype of blasters; one that I don't believe is an accurate (what stereotype is?) portrayal of blasters. I wish we had had a proper blaster on the team (failing a proper one, I had asked Jum along ) we just ended up with someone determined to confirm every worst preconception any one could have about blasters.

Excellent. I understand what we mean to nOObs in the city. Feel free to call on our help if you need it.

[/ QUOTE ]

If that "n00bs in the city" crack was aimed at me I would direct you to the fact that I was registered on these forums a full 6 months before you... or possibly even mention the fact that Green Jet hit 50 before The Precision Rangers Super Group was even founded. If however you were just being sarcy like me, I merely respond with the immortal line "Pffft! I know you are, you said you are, but what am I?"

Well that's a relief. I can sleep at night now.

Just wanted to post a thank you to all those in the team last night that successfully completed the Eden Trial. I really enjoyed the tanking and appreciated the patience of my team mates as the aggro cap slowed things down considerably in there. So thank you and take a bow:

Echo Taker Team Leader - Thanks for the invite!

Storm Quake Mother of my illegitimate stone love child.

Doc Illusion For the good natured healing & for not rubbing in the changes to aggro.

Lady Grimm Biff! Blamm! Kappow! Scrappery Goodness!

Late For more of that scrappery mayhem and all the advice on Stone Tanking

Miss Directed For turning up at the last minute and continuing to be my long suffering kinetics support.

And finally, Special Mention to the Level 42 Fire/Fire Blaster who quit the team an hour into the trial only after:

Attacking the First Wall before anyone was ready.

Ignoring every single request to hold back until the herd was ready.

Flying around and dragging aggro back to the team.

Blatantly attempting to leach off debt after faceplanting again.

Being the most Blatantly Shabby Stereotypical Hollows Rank Amateur Fire Blaster I have had the displeasure to meet in a very long time.

So thanks guys - was a blast.

I think it can work well Li as long as people switch SG's once they hit 50 with their new alts (Founding Members excepted of course). Get the 50's in The Academy earning the green and the low levels in DW earning the prestige while it's easy to come by. I think it should work great.

It is a cracking site so far and I look forward to adding HP to the member pages...

Congratulations Jest, in record time for you as well! Have fun with Equilibrium Warrior mate (hopefully Jet won't have to bail him out too many times more... ).

Congratulations Aldwych. Glad we had a chat before you dinged mate - seeya in game.

I guess I didn't explain that clearly enough eh Doc?

*looks upwards eight posts*

As an aside, apologies if I was briefly causing echo (or something) on the teamspeak server. I just installed the programme while waiting patiently in the sidelines like a good scrapper that I am, and wanted to check it out. I'll need to sort it out later so it actually works.

[/ QUOTE ]

The echo problem is usually fixed by changing your settings in Teamspeak to "Push to Talk" where you assign a button on your keyboard to activate your mike. Drop me a tell when your next on if I'm about and I'll help if possible.


And apologies from me to anyone on TS last night when I went into swearing mode - very rude and entirely uncalled for

Big gratz to J being leader, and green jet as team leader, much better than my last one, nice hami-o too.

One question.....whens the next one ?

[/ QUOTE ]
Hey, I was just following Jersey's lead mate. I wasn't an officially designated leader, I just formed a team of those scrappers that were left over and made sure we stuck to the gameplan.

In the spirit of "educating" those lvl 50's in the Hive with capes and auras a'glistening - Invulnerability Tanker (I know your name) at the staging point who was intentionally trying to train GM's down onto us - (with the immortal phrase "At least we'll have something to do") next time mate, why not have a breath-holding competition with your mother-sister-cousin instead?

Big thanks to Jiaozy for the raid - virtually no death and Hami-O's a go-go! Well done - and thanks to the pickup team of scrappers I fell in with (and Psionic Medic!) no prima donna antics - no stupid auras, just patience and intelligent conversation - a startling change from the last raid I was on at least... well chuffed and you can count me in any time!

Level 50 inv tank signing on for low pay, hazardous duty, and no perks. No epic holds, No Vanguard, unless I can dig out 100 Lost bosses in 3 hours.

[/ QUOTE ]

If not the sewers - the trench in Terra Volta has Lost mobs with 2 bosses in each - very quick respawn rate as well. I did about 60 in there in about 50 minutes I think... Hope that helps...

Once again, congratulations Li!(sorry HH) it was a very frantic mission with some scary moments so entirely suitable for a primarily Darkwings outing... glad I could be there - even gladder you didn't make me play as Pax

just as well need the extra time to get zorch up.

Y'never know I may even get Punchy up to speed for the shards if we've got 2 weeks

Well, I would just like to thank the guys and gals who were around to do Moonfire on Friday night, followed by Hess on Sunday afternoon. Both TFs were a great success, and Hess went blindingly fast being completed in under 2 hours with only one death (yours truly, stuck under a catwalk while trying to fly out and being nuked by the self-destruct...)

I highly recommend multiple /kin controllers for fast & furious murdering of Council goons

However, I still have Hess available on my scrapper, and may well be able to do it again next Sunday


[/ QUOTE ]

I second that. That was a very enjoyable TF - very quick, very brutal and very funny when Doc couldn't get out of the volcano at the end...

Cut a long story short, I would like to be considered to join team if anyone has the spelunker badge mission - have stone tank (Hawaiin Punch) who has met all other Atlas Medallion requirements just need the pesky mission badge - will happily exemp down or smoosh greys if you want it done quickly - please post here if it's a possibility or send me a tell in game either as Hawaiin Punch (yes, spelt incorrectly) or global tell @Green Jet

Thanks.

Count me in mate (if there's room) entirely your choice which alt you would like on the team... and any night this week is fine by me

Glad I didn't disgrace myself entriely with the build so far - I know you are a perfectionist Shan. As ever, you are welcome to join any team I am in mate. Had the single pleasure of teaming with ol' Skull Bender last night - in the guise of his scrapper Satisfaction and I must say it was very odd watching him belt away whilst I feebly tried to manage the aggro. Will I be able to withstand your scrutiny Shannon?

No problem - am in France again at the moment, so on nightshifts rather than TS.

[/ QUOTE ]

That'll explain it then - hope it's not too arduous out there and I'll see you soon - we can have a chat and hopefully a bit of a team session.

Thanks for the advice Tundra, I had been hoping to catch you on Team Speak to go through the build but much appreciate your comments mate. As for these other dodgy types (that means you SB! ) it would be excellent to get some teaming in - chuck me a tell any time I'm on - I'm sure you guys have got my global but just in case it's @Green Jet suprisingly enough. Catch you all in Paragon I hope!

Ps Jet thinks Stalkers are like wasps. They are annoying but if you ignore them long enough they will go away and pester something they have a chance of killing...

I will definitely be getting Knockout Blow and haven't discounted that in the later game I expect to be dishing out as well as taking damage - at the moment my considerations have been around armouring myself the best I can so I can take the heat off my teammates - I'm sure since ED I will have anough slots to chuck around in my 30's so I can start doing some significant damage.

Well thanks for the comments so far.

Also glad to see that there are varying combinations that can work and be effective.

I should explain that HP tends to team with his SG mates, and as such there are always damage dealers in the team - subsequently I am leaving the attacks until later and will very likely be slotting them for Accuracy and Taunt only. I appreciate that at present soloing with this guy would be like watching paint dry

One question, is Earth's Embrace better slotted for heals and rchg or for Toxic resist?

Firstly, Hello.
After 100+ Levels of CoV I have returned back to CoH to play a tank that I rolled last April; goes by the name of Hawaiin Punch (I know I spelt it incorrectly)he is Stone/Super Strength and I am building him to be purely a team player.

Current Lvl 18, build as follows:

Stone Armour:

Rock Armour - 1 End Red, 3 Def

Stone Skin - 3 Dmg Res

Earth's Embrace - 1 Rchg

Mud Pots - 1 End Red, 1 Acc, 1 Dmg, 1 Slow, 2 Taunt

Rooted - 2 End Red, 3 Heal

Brimstone Armour - 1 End Red, 2 Dmg Res

Crystal Armour - 1 Dmg Res

Super Strength:

Jab - 1 Acc

Punch - 1 Acc

Others:

Brawl - 1 Acc

Recall Friend - 1 Int Red

Teleport - 1 End Red

Any suggestions much appreciated, FYI I'm set to take Taunt at 20 then fitness pool after that...

All I'd like is a bucket with a sponge in to douse my dried out zombies and stop 'em from going woof! every time they look at a Longbow Flamethrower...
