Lady_DarkForce

This is a story, mostly, about the Super Group, the Femme Fatales, as writen by one of our forum members, Knightingale.

It's a good length, 65 pages in all, so I hope you enjoy reading it, as much as we did, as it provides background detail on some of the Femmes and other heroes they work closely with.

**WARNING**

Those easily offended by sware words, please be aware that there are sware words contained within the text.

Darkest Nights, Brightest Days

This again?

I thought we came to the point where we decided that Taunt is not needed for a Tank, but makes Tanking a whole lot easier.

The same can be said about Stamina or Hasten.

I wouldn't expect them too, I see Transference as a power to just use if you're able (and in need obviously), telling someone to run towards a target for a heal would take far too long and is a waste of time even for the experienced playa.

Unless you have a bind for it, but no new player would.

Then again, Dark is the only one with a self heal, even if it does need a tohit roll.

As you may have guess if you read the rest of the forums, I'm still here, from day one of the EU retail

Unless you are SR or DA, and have the +perception powers in either of those sets, then no, you won't be able to see a hidden and stealthed stalker, just a hidden or stealthed one. You need Tactics and FA to see a hidden and stealthed stalker if you aren't SR or DA.

Hmm, reading the powers each henchman gets with each upgrade, kind of makes me not want to make a Thug MM anymore, I feel drawn to make a Ninja/TA MM now.

Think I need a list of pros and cons of each power set and each henchman, although I can't see Zap's MM guide atm, it would be blocked on this computer.

It's bugged

They have a Medic, what more needs to be said?

Just stick a Res to it on Break Frees, it is a Mez effect after all.

I was over Digi's house and he was in a team, and their team chat made no sense, to either of us, broadcast and Arena make less sense than team chat at the best of times. I always have to check the options for hearing villains from time to time just from Tyl's comments alone

[/ QUOTE ]


That was a very very bizarre team chat... totally confused me tbh.. I'm positive that there's some sort of option that automatically makes only half a conversation appear at the most inopportune times.. ah-well.. but still.. that is the one time that my team chat has made less sense than either broadcast or arena... so something must have been up, it wasn't just me confused then!!

I don't understand how you could find Tyl's comments a little bizarre... am I mistaken in thinking that Tyl is the sane-ist person on Defiant ??

Some people use TS but don't have microphones and use team chat if they are teaming with people on TS who do have a microphone. I know I do it some times

Ashen is level 18 by the sounds of it, and doesn't have the 3rd Henchman. He was talking about the 3rd 1st tier Hechman you get at level 18.

The 3rd Hench at 26 does sound like he will be an SS Brute, wonder what his secondary will be as a Brute, if he has one that is.

Don't take Maneuvers, the Def buff is so tiny for a stalker, the slots could go to better use else where.

A posion MM would screw up Regen alot, -heal, -regen, -acc, if you had, maybe Necro, Lich could use Fearsome Stare I guess. The -regen of robots would be nice aswell.

Works better with Hurricane

Ice/Rad then, slows, acc debuff and a regen debuff

Ice/Cold Corr.

-regen in Benumb (I think) and a hell of a lot of slows so they can really only use their clicky heals once in a fight.

but you will be less fast to attack than with SR

A Stalker in PvP?

Outfit changes with the 1st upgrade to a vest with tattoos down the arms.

The upgrade animation was really wrong when I did it used it last night, its the same as the Merc's upgrade (toss a can at them and then they glow yellow for the odd second while they cange), it was way out of time, like watching a singer mime a song and they are ten seconds behind the track, the delay was that long.

Ninjitsu.

Has near enough the same Def as SR, plus a self heal, and Res to fear, which SR doesn't have.

The main thing about Ninjitsu is that it was made for Stalkers, where as SR was just modified for from Scrappers.

- Henchmen are no longer controllable while Personal Forcefield is active



[/ QUOTE ]

Why the [censored] did they do the recharge nerf then? The stupidity of the devs really irritates me

[/ QUOTE ]

So when you actually want to change your Henchs attack settings, it takes a while to get back into PPF.

[ QUOTE ]
Example - Regen scrappers are great at prolonged battle but if you can do enough damage in a short space of time they're toast.

[/ QUOTE ]

Or slow them till they drop dead from lack of clickable heals.

One of the Force Field bubbles protects against it aswell, the one that gives Def to fire/cold/(n)energy, Insulation I think.

Remember the +Stealth aspect of Super Speed was removed for PvP.

[/ QUOTE ]
IIRC (and just to be pedantic before MaX can be) it was removed for PCs but it remains for NPCs.

[/ QUOTE ]

And now I'm totally lost, there are NPCs with SS?

[/ QUOTE ]

he means in PVE the stealth aspect of SS works but in PVP it does not.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thats what I meant!
