Larac

Going to try an "slightly quicker" ITF tonight and I might just buy a random tf rewqard recipie for giggles.

I'm really disapointed with the dark shield, it looks relly cool on the cossie creator but a bit meh in the flesh.

However the rest of the changes get a two thumbs up.

Even better, isn't the kismet 6% tohit rather than acc?

I like the /DA rez for the huge stun can provide some lol moments in PvP, and I need all the help I can get.

I would go either DM or BS.
DB is geting a big boost later today with the change to the Tier9.
BS is just huge spike dmg.

Very good for me as I had 5 drop on Saturday. Which is weird as I was moaning on global that I hadn't had one drop for weeks.

Although 2 were [censored].

I made one called "Ready" for a while, but the joke got a bit old quite quickly.

Second Match:

Champion: Sonic/Sonic
vs
Challenger: Dark/Sonic

Amusing comment: Err fluffy ftw

Round 2. FIGHT!

Sonic/Sonic: 0
Dark/Sonic: 0

I'd be up for an all dark team as long as the day was right.

Ah the joys of public sector working. start on 28days (rising to 33 after a few years) the minute you sign the contract. Plus back holidays on top.

Marked flexi or my favorite self certified/managed hours.
Plus all the overtime you can take.

Makes me miss the old days of acrewed holiday (16 days per year due to shifts)
or not.

That really is a kind of

"I don't believe you wanted to do that"

moment.

I still think bridger had the best toon. ie all of the tank primaries, secondaries and pool powers in one go.

The travel speed/end ones fetch huge money.

I still use them to pad out sets. Especailyl like scirocco's where I only slot 4. Check an acc/dmg in you get most stuff to ed limits.

I haven't 6 slotted it on any toons, one of my blasters has 5 in aim, BU & tictacs.

My other one has just two in aim & BU for the 2%dmg boost.

I must post an updated version of this build as I made some changes while I was working on it.
Currently got +35.5% dmg, enough recharge and a very amusing mag 26KB mele power. Tried it for fun on a SG guy and bounced his granite tank about the arena something chronic.

I've held off making a DA/EN tank in the hope that some day I will be able to bask in the power of an EN/DA scrapper....

You can ask the SG registration guy to show you a list of the top 100 SGs by prestige earnt. But nothing else really.

I have a rad/sonic a dark/sonic and a kin as well.

I can say alot of the time in teams the rad is just a weak blaster who gives people am every now and then. As no matter what people will always ALWAYS kill the anchor 1st....
The dark is slightly more interactive as you have positional powers which dont require targets and when you get to 32, you have fluffy to do all your work.
kin is the one I find the most hectic as people always want SB, always want fulcrum etc etc plus you can spam transfusion, transference, drain power etc etc.

Having said that I like the dark best, good balance of activity and power.

But people always want the rad on TFs unless they have a stone tank.
As said above Kin is a good debuff, if not the best. Just be prepared for the constant SB plz.....

He's what I'm almost running atm. I have respec'd into all the slots but I'm currently crafting the IOs and bidding on a miracle, two imperviums and one numina heal/end to finish off.

Not the cheapest non-purple build ever but it seems to work. I know I have under slotted the +def on parry but I treat it as a bonus to an attack chain filler rather than a corner stone. Oh and I don't have the 2nd lotg recharge in CJ, I have a karma KB atm. If/when I get the second lotg I might loose the kismet.

I've got a pair of 8600GTs in SLI and the game works fine. As to if there is a boost in performance, can't really tell you.

I'm trying Axe and SS for mine atm, too early to tell which I prefer though.

I've solo'd all the content of the 1st 4 on a scapper and tank. Mostly I've done it for the badges for mates, they log in to start, all bar me and the people who want the badges quit, I solo the content and they then log on for the last mish when ever is sutable.

Any self respecting mele toon should be able to solo most of the tf content even if it is set for 3 or 4 people.

Plus if there is less than 3 people there are no AVs unless you are on INV.

Oh and stryke, that stop nightstar is fine unles your weak to nrg dmg. She put the furt on my DM/DA to the point where I had to pop a buch of purple insps.

Got 44mths my self and 13mths on my second account. Wont be leaving any time soon as I still have some stuff I want to do, but also because there is nothing else out there I enjoy playing much.

Some times I'll take a few days off (to prevent the PC burns as stryke mentioned) but wont leave the game, got some good friends on here. Alot of them are playing WAR or RotLK, but they will be back once the shine wears off as it always does.

I might get CO on one of the consoles for fun but again I wont stop playing until the servers go away. I would consider a migration to the US if I could take 2 of my toons over as they are basically who I am in this game.

Anyways ramble over. Game not dead. Carry on.

Still have mine in their little plastic cases on the shelf. With the other comic book tie-ins and models which the wife wont allow in the front room....

I have a BS/DA @ 50 and it's more powerful than my DM/DA in most situations.
When I'll get home I'll try to remember to post up my no purple IO build.

BS/DA

You know you want to be a fluffy black cloud hacking stuff up with a big sword.....

Although don't expect it to all be roses leveling it up..
