I've gotten many Very Rares. Those Masterminds just need to participate more. (-:

The Henchmen don't have trouble in other trials. Some enemies do some hefty damage to them with AoEs, but not to the extent that it's pointless to bring them out in the first place. Not Siege. Not Marauder. Not the Avatar, or Maelstrom, or Penelope Mayhem (though that one IS a bit harsh), or the Sentinel. The antimatter pulse and Obliteration Beam don't seem to do much but scratch them. Everything either hurts the pets so slowly someone gets a few heals off before it matters, or they just don't hit them at all.

Tyrant, on the other hand, is full of "herp derp let's use mega AoE because screw you guys this dude is strong."

I was never able to find that elusive "jump in and out" pet command. I have "attack my target," which gets them killed. I have "follow me," which doesn't help accomplish the task at hand. I also have "dismiss," which doesn't seem to be detrimental in any way...

Thugs. Ironically, the Bruiser doesn't get hit as often, probably because of the miscellaneous buffs in melee around Tyrant by other players.

I checked them in the target window before sending them in. They were usually +5 or +6. If that's a fluke then so be it, but there were +5 and +6 pancakes on the ground a few seconds later. (-:

I haven't had this issue, personally, even while leaving the pets on aggressive. When you hop to the next building, they ignore anything along the way.

They fixed the boss rage AI thing with Issue 23; I've seen it first-hand. They still occasionally do that thing where they have to run aaaaaaaaaaaaaall the way over there just to Heel and then run all the way back, but they won't charge off into oblivion just because there's an AV on the map anymore.




.

Well that was quick; no benefit of the doubt or anything!

Also, nice try, but I was on light duty. They were +5s +6s before I sent them in, for just this very reason. Ol' bossypants still one- or two-shotted them with AoEs because the devs wanted him to have lulz epic aoezes. Ostracizing an entire archetype is no way to design a boss.

Neurotoxic Breath can only do so much good. (-:

Dun dun dunnnnnn!

Nope, you both missed the mark. That thread's talking about some level shift bug. Totally not the issue here.

I send in my pets to fight Tyrant. They immediately come back in little bitty pieces. While we're at it, let's turn off all Tanker sheilds, remove Blaster ranged attacks and prevent Stalkers from doing anything in melee!

By the sounds of it, the bet is WAI

Thanks for watching, this has been Check Yer Damn Facts with your host, Guy Perfect.

That was pretty clever, actually. (-:

That's not worth 100 Internetz. It's about as obscure a reference as "What's it gonna do, nibble yer bum?"

His real face hasn't existed for decades in this timeline. What makes you think he got it back a million years from now? O-:

PvP isn't unavoidable, though. |-:

Don't get me wrong, I respect that people don't like getting totally whupped, and those people either don't PvP or pick their battles. Sometimes, you just gotta know when to quit. I don't think it's appropriate for people who don't to get me all nerfed up because they want a shot at beating me solo.

It should be noted that I avoid the dimwits in PvP zones for the same reasons everyone else does. I much prefer the arena, but for so long as mez suppression stays in effect, I can't stomach it.


As one who is not a subscriber to the church of...



... , I don't have a problem with other characters being better than mine. If I don't want to be beat, I won't fight. Simple as that.

But for people to insist that other players necessarily be more fun for them? That's exactly the opposite of what PvP is supposed to be about.

So in other words, my preference is wrong and I shouldn't want to PvP?

I'm just sayin'. If it was PvE against players, I'd enjoy the snot out of it.

Again, mez suppression was in effect. As long as I've been playing (Issue 6), PvP's been broke if only because of that nonsense.


Are you seriously trying to play THIS crap against me? Read my original post, because that's exactly what I want even if it happens to me.


Once. And then they were immune to it for the next 15 seconds. THAT sucked.

"Hrm, he specializes in mez. Should I be worried about mez? Say it ain't so!"
"It ain't so! Here, we'll make you invincible to it because being perma-mezzed is SO not fun!"


Or, you know, if you don't want to fight against THOSE people, play against a friend instead. You won't see me entering any Strongest Man contests, since I doubt I could flip a car with my hands. Same idea applies to PvP.

I mean, it's not like I'm going to take any Warshades up against Giant Monsters in PvE. What's the difference?

Now if we took teams against each other, THAT'D be interesting. As long as there was none of that phony mez suppression.
