    It was a great game. Dissapointed my boys didn't win, and not overly optimistic about our chances of winning 2 in a row, especially with the 2nd one having to be in Vancouver.

    I am keeping my fingers crossed though! The last time the B's won the cup I was about 6 months old...

    I've got a baby elec/elec (26) that is a ton of fun to play

    Lacking a self heal, I went with that one. I ended up going with the heal +max hp (since regen doesn't help low hp chars too much).

    I'm disappointed with it because it just isn't up all that often (every 2 mins).

    Is there a better choice for DOMs?

    My DOM is a perma dom plant/fire with capped S/L def (if that is helpful to the decision process).

    Yep. Hold 'em, then kill them. Nothing like neutering a spawn set for 8 people and then mowing them down while they wonder what is happening.

    Gah! These scoreless games are KILLING me. 2 periods down, 1 to go...

    Meh. I have 2 arcs in MA, both could be called 'farms' I suppose. One is for low levels to smack Hellions around, the other is Freaks. Neither of them have a plot or central characters or what not, sometimes... I just like to smack stuff.

    Those were VERY evenly matched teams, made for a fun (and nail biting) series to watch!

    Bottom left hand corner, drop down box. It happened to me too.

    I seem to remember the last time I did this mission that at the very least you didn't need to actually defeat them anymore?
  12. Kinrad
    Thanks y'all, it was a leveling pact from 3 YEARS ago! It has been a long time since I played this guy!

    Thanks again!
  13. Kinrad
    My brute is level 50, as are the other characters I am comparing him to.
    He gains exactly 1/2 the inf of my other level 50 characters, but I can't figure out why?

    Things I know I can rule out:
    He is not in super group mode
    Disable Earning XP I have tried both settings
    XP While Examplared I have tried both settings

    He *might* be in an old leveling pact, but I can't seem to find that anywhere?

    Any other suggestions, 'tis weird.
  14. Kinrad
    I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

    Purples I understand farming, but AE tickets? What can to you do with them? Serious question. I haven't run and AE arc since it first came out.

    Nope, 47. 50 to drop shards though.

    I run all my Incarnates at +0/x8 and farm tips for A-merits and purples to make my next Incarnate.

    Talk to people and be willing to listen. I am (by nature) very shy and introverted until I get to know someone.

    Making in-game friends gives you people to talk to, and if you are new, people who probably know more about the game than you.

    Some people are jerks, some people are pushy jerks, but most people are actually nice and willing to help.

    Also... download and use MIDs. It is almost as fun as the game!

    Yeah, I did that too! I was so confused about it in fact, that I came to the boards and asked if there was an easier way to get around. I almost got banned from the game because I was on the official boards explaining my predicament and not the BETA boards and was breaking the NDA...

    Usually I buy recipes and am patient, but when I decided to play Itsy-Bitsy Spider again and worked out my spec in Mids', I was too impatient to wait.

    So I gathered a couple billion from all of my characters and just bought all my IOs outright.

    Was it smart? No, but I figured it's not real money and I can always make more.
  21. Kinrad
    Thanks for the responses guys.
    I played around with the offered build and made some tweaks, it is not quite soft capped, but is within a few percentage and has slightly better global recharge. (Plus I can take Spiritual since end shoudln't be a problem.)
    Please let me know your thoughts, and thanks again!

    So, I'm toying with taking my old Mace/WP out of the moth balls and building with IOs, and taking him on the incarnate trials.

    I should have enough inf to put together this build, and have plenty of A-merits stock piled on my other 50s to pull off the LoTG and Miracle procs.

    I'm looking for any help you folks can provide, but have *zero* interest in pursuing purple sets. Other than that I will gladly take any advice!

    I tried to get S/L cap and very high regen.

    POST-ACTION

    All four of my Incarnates are generally considered 'support' chars (see sig).

    My Dom and my Corruptor bring both control and damage in spades.
    My Crab brings tons of damage, but near zero control. He does however bring lots of defense to share.
    My (namesake) Defender feel anemic because he brings -zero- control the fight, but he does make stuff die faster.

    The only AT I've noticed have any real problems with the iTrials are MM on Lambda. Those tight hallways and constantly moving tend to get a lot of the MMs I've teamed with killed or at the very least VERY busy constantly summoning new pets.
