You, Sir, are an example to all us blasters!

/em cheers

Every time a thermal doesn't take thaw, a kitten dies.
Do you really want to be responsible for the death of a poor little kitty? Mez protection powers are like gold dust for villains. Only sonic and thermal get clicky ones and sonic gets it late.

Listen to NB and Filth: Take thaw you damn fools!

With TempInvul and FoN running it'll give me the following numbers for resist damage:
L/S: 80.2%
Cold/Energy/Fire/NegEn/Toxic: 49%
Psi: 0%

[/ QUOTE ]I'm not sure what thew blaster resistance cap is, but it damn sure is under 80%.

[/ QUOTE ]

OMG, that 0.2% resistance is such a waste!

The most awesome ones would be energy punch, bone smasher and buildup. Stun is a bit poop but by no means aweful. The other self buffs are all pretty great too, but you might have a hard time fitting them in.

Time to roll a new character!

You can't.

Cosmic burst has the disorient animation which can be confusing, but it's a hold (same with EMP and CC).
OG is a disorient.

[/ QUOTE ]

Is that really true? It takes disorient enhancers and I don't remember it stacking with CC

Thanks for the input! I'm not really bothering with attacks except the awesome cosmic burst and perhaps Irradiate for it's defence debuff. You're right about the mobility thing, it's something that does really bother me. Being able to bounce around in PvP will save you from a lot of the melee damage. I'll have to take on test and see what I can do with it I guess. It's always a risk not taking stamina. Aim is for Fallout and EMP but I could just juggle the slotting and get rid of it.

Edit: Double posting

doesn't affect defenders so much, but corruptors and trollers will notice

However, if you find solo utterly mindnumbingly dull it's no help whatsoever

Mind you, I did manage to get an almost max defiance Nova off the other day

Oh wow, now that's some nice stoof!

Hmm, that's pretty much what I imagined for choking cloud in PvP. Mind you, I want to be good support in PvE too, and choking cloud is awesome for that. Hearing them all gurgle away is magic

I think I'll be swapping out Proton Volley for Grant Invis

Recall friend is for using someone's corpse as a portable bomb/vengence buff before I res them

Conceptually, defaince is really pants. Game wise it's next to useless unless you exploit it the way TG mentioned, which is mostly impossible in PvE. It just doesn't kick in soon enough, and when it does the damage buff is really poor until you're pretty much deaded.

Good combo for AR I think. It should minimise on the need to repeatedly draw the weapon: slap down the debuffs then get on with the shooting. Problems might arise with drawning the weapon when you start healing, or if you have to repeatedly apply the debuff cos some fool keeps killing the anchor

Here's my latest ponderings on Irradiators future PvP build. As hard as it was to admit, rad blast kinda sucks for PvP so I've gone for a pure team assistance build. One thing I've noticed with my current build is that it end is not a problem in the slightest, it's always full unless I do an EMP so I've decided to get rid of the fitness pool in favour of leadership. I took fallout to do that Unfender thing a few posts down the page, since people are always dying in PvP

I'd like to hear from anyone who's tried out choking cloud in PvP. Is it really worth my time? If not I'll probarbly get grant invis or something.

Take a peep, tell me what you think.

Just not my cup of tea. I'll go even further and suggest Alien vs Predator was a more enjoyable watch! :P

[/ QUOTE ]

If there was a vomit emoticon I'd be using it right now.

ALthough it had occured to me that you could be just baiting. Yeah, that's the only reasonable explanation. Nobody can dislike Aliens

[ QUOTE ]
No. Its like a swirling whirlpool (like a mini-galaxy) and small bubbles rise from it. And it hums loudly - which is annoying

[/ QUOTE ]

without a doubt it's the leftovers from a gravity type power. Sometimes the visual effect can stick which is pretty annoying. I find it happens a lot with dark based things.

Weave: Don't do it!

Really, weave is teh suck. Combat jumping is waaay better, it's almost got as much defence and provides immob protection and more jumpyness. And it costs less end!

Fast paced creative playing. Playnig against agtual people is also a lot of fun. It's a change of pace from the grind too.

[ QUOTE ]
I actually considered getting a US copy of the game and playing over there

[/ QUOTE ]

I've been feeling a bit like that too. Higher population servers would be a lot more fun I think. They also tend to do a lot more crazy concept stuff.

Yeah, people don't seem to think much of trick arrow, and personally I'd say poison looks a bit poo. Try those for a challenge!

A mate of mine has zombies and seems to need to resummon those fairly often, so that might add a bit more challenge too. Zombies is also a pretty good set. High damage and great looking pets, especially with the 32 upgrade.

Stacks with the disorients from your secondary and it gets past acrobatics which many people take these days.

[/ QUOTE ]

Any disorient will get past acrobatics as it only protects from knockback and holds.

RD, Zeshin has a sonic/energy up to the low 30s. Try PMing him on the OV forums.

[/ QUOTE ]

I know, I know. I get ahead of myself sometimes and end up not explaining myself properly

I think what I meant to say was you'll be able to stop the squishies quick with the hole in acrobatics and also disorient bosses fairly easy by stacking disorients

Hmmm, for blapping I'm not so sure. It depends on your technique. I tend to rush into melee as fast as pos, energy punch, bonesmasher, power thrust, power blast then close again with power burst. With sonics you'd be better off starting with the blasts.

Actaully, having thought about it, my way is dumb. Do the blasts first then close for the melee. Should be a good combo, since the melee attacks are very heavy hitters.
Also, the single target disorient you get at 26 or so is real nice. Stacks with the disorients from your secondary and it gets past acrobatics which many people take these days.

MM buff revealed. Somewhere on the US forum there's a linkage to some kind of damage sharing between you and your minions. bah, it's teh suckage.
