Quote:Okay ... so is the badge for "for no living spawn reinforcements" or " next spawn being far enough away that you can put down the AVs in that time."Originally Posted by Ammon
Strong and Pretty is for killing all the reinforcement spawns. Its that final tricky bit in the wal of text instructions.
You have to time killing the dual AVs for a moment when there are also no living reinforcement spawns.
The basic tactic for that specific badge is in three parts:
(a) hold the damage on both AVs at about 2%.
(b) ensure that the reinforcement spawn team are typically killing each spawn in under 15 seconds.
(c) reinforcement team leader gives the shout when to finish off the last 2% on AVs, timing it so that it coincides with the last spawn being dead, and the next spawn being far enough away that you can put down the AVs in that time.
Its great if several of your league have already unlocked and slotted the Judgement incarnate slot at this point, because they can all save those for this last critical moment to help ensure perfect syncronicity.
However, as long as the Reinforcement spawn team are killing the spawns fast enough with plenty of AoE damage, there's a decent chance of getting the badge without timing the AVs specially.
A spawn of reinforcements every 30 seconds, and a team that kills them in 10, means there's no spawn alive for 20 seconds of every 30, and a 2 in 3 raw chance for the badge.
Timing gets that chance much higher, but errors happen, and it may take a couple of tries.
this is where i am getting confused.... Can you kill them with reinforcements alive but away and still get badge? I was under assumption that you need to kill all reinforcements... -
I have run about 45+ (6 fails) BAFS atm and I am sitting at least 4 rares and 2 very rares. The rest were uncommon and common, even got the weird 10 threads or something else window.
So i guess there is only 5 award windows then? -
Question, in detail, how do you get the strong in pretty badge.. been trying for it this weekend to no avail. DO you kill them during there first spwans w/o reinforcements or just the dual rez w/o adds or both... we were not sure which it was...

Has anyone tried using Telekinesis on the escapees during that stage of the BAF? I'm curious as to whether it is effective against the minnies, I know its useless against the LTs.

Quote:Never thought of it being a sphere.. I will have to check that out then. Good points on the swords to. ...... of course I read this after my post....Originally Posted by Zombie Man
The "patch" is a sphere. It is not columnar.
You can get hurt being under one if it's too close to the ground. But you can easily get to the limit of your blast powers and leave lots of room for others to run underneath them. I've never had someone on the ground get hurt for being under the BRoD that spawned in my flight path.
The "do not fly" rule is unduly removing a excellent survival mechanism for squishies who would melt under Sword bosses. Swords have no ranged attack. The ranged attacks of the Champions have no mez. Flying is a huge benefit to ranged ATs. And if they get hit by a BRoD, the -fly drops them out of it to safety! -

Quote:Bah.. i meant to quote Beefcakes post. I also wanted to add that I still use/have access to all my emails from 10 years ago :-)Originally Posted by Lifewind
Bah.. you know what. I think both parties are partly at fault. Yeah they should have given more leeway time for this security update, but then again It is not NCsofts fault that our original email from 10 years ago doesn't work or is not accessible. I say this because I ran into this exact same issue this weekend.
Initially I spazzed and was pissed off... worrying that I would not be able to play this weekend. But I followed the steps online and I got a response back like 1 hour later... at 12am (Japan standard time). But even through all this I was still able to log into my 2 accounts... just wasn't able to log into the master account. I should be a 81 month vet or something... but I am on record as a 63 months vet. I agree Vet or new guy should be treated the same, but I also think that the same scenario shouldnt happen again in the future.... -

Instead they put down the costume pack codes that they had bought (and KEPT the reciepts of).
And it doesnt matter if you have been playing the game for 10 years or 1 months, you should all be treated the same.

Also, it is easy to clear rooms as long as you know your limits. My limits are about 60+ npcs all at once give or take a few. The mobs need to be mostly melee,range and s/l, psi for this to work too.
Also remember other builds can solo TF's, and take out AV's and such, this is not that type of build. I am working on one of those types of builds currently, but if you are interested in the solo tf's speak to Kahlan or Fiery enforcer. They have pretty nice builds for solo tf's.
See you in game..... -

Quote:I'm not sure if you are talking about my build. Are you on the champion server and was the dom named Dry Rot 6?. If not, my suggestion for a "steam roller " plant/psi dom is to take the Psi mastery patron. I dont really share my builds, but with psi mastery you can get softcap to s/l, range and melle, and have about 160% in recharge.Originally Posted by SteelDominator
I saw an awesome build for a Dominator as a Plant/PSI in a MoLGTF and he was clearing rooms by the masses. Does anyone have build that makes room clearing as easy as I seen? My Plant/PSI is currently 42 and hoping to get it as uber or at least in the ball park.
I also have the Ice/mastery patron on my alt build. And i use that to take on +4/8 mobs in AE. The only issue for both of these builds is that you need to have a huge mob around you to keep your end up. And like was said b4 /psi is a lil on the weak side when it comes to ST damage. If you are interested in build help send me a PM here or in-game at @lifewind. I am also on test with the same global.
My plant/psi was actually my first villan, i have 4k+ hours on it for in-game time. It is a really fun toon, and the plant/ primary is one of the best primaries for going W A Y past the aggro cap 'cuz of creepers imho. -
Quote:Originally Posted by RadioSilence
How good is being defense-capped for S/L? Is it worth slotting for that and how effective is it for a dom? I was planning to go that route and also get permadom in my lvl50 build.
I have been a firm believer in +resistance shields and softcap to range for a long time. Having 22+ doms I can experiment with different type of defensive/resistance type builds.
My new Plant/Psi build now is soft cap to both range and s/l with about 161 for recharge. The alt build for my toon has about 18 dmg procs, softcap to s/l and about 171 recharge. T
Taking into account that both of these builds are "I19 ready" there is no fitness pool. Softcap to S/L can be done without gimping your toon, but it takes a lil more creativity to do. But my current toon can do +2 8, ambushes endless with no insps. can do +4 8 with insps though.
A lot of my other friends with Doms quickly moved to softcap to S/L right after the great BOTZ nerf :-(. Having moved to this new def build I am happy with its performance. So yes I think the + def is worth it.
May I also add that I think the most surviable dom now has /psi and /ice mastery..... -
Anyone have any idea what lvl the pets will spawn at when you are at lvl 50.. sorrry i should have said that first. Since SA purple pet proc doesnt work on Fire imps because they are lvl 49, i was wondering if a lvl 50 toon would spwan a lvl 50 pet or lvl 49.
-
If it was me... I would drop Manuevers and vengeance. 3 slot build up with membrane exposures. Add incinerate and Blaze and dont 6 slot waterspout. I would add another acop to flares or add it to blaze or incinerate. IMO ur Acc is low for a /fire. I know the Leviathan pool adds more survival to ur build , but with Fiery embrace Poisonous ray would be a lot better than water spout. But this is all my 2 cents btw since i havent finished speccing my 3 lvl 50 /fires. Later bud
If u want more help with ur build send me ur email in a PM in-game
This is Dirty Sparks btw

yes i know skipping blaze wasnt the best idea, but after playing with him for a bit i noticed i hardly ever use blaze anyways

OK, seems for awhile now that unless I'm running strike forces it's hard to find a team to run with on villains. It just seems that teaming is no longer in existence red side. So to all those who primarily play villains, I have a question for you all. I am thinking about starting a themed style team on villains, playing these toons one night a week. Starting at lvl 1 going to break out and working our way to level 50. I would be open to many different themes. I started a X-Men theme team while I was stationed in Japan making each character our version of any X-Men we choose. This is kind of the theme style team I am talking about. I'm open to any suggestions on themes. I am more curious if any one would be interested. I'm just tired of soloing and would really like to bring teaming back on a regular basis instead of just teaming for strike forces. Well guess I will now wait and see. I haven't given up on Champion server yet. You have been my home for over 3 years and I have met some really wonderful people. I really want to bring that friendly teaming atmosphere back to the number 1 server in the game. Don't fail me now Champion, lets be that friendly, team oriented, teaching others the ins and outs of the game server we used to be.
Yours Truly
