Between the enormous database of action figures unpainted I can actually find one that suits Elizabeth,,,

Bloody Hell!!! I knew the day would come... we had timely warning. Stil it hurts to see you leave.
Take care in whatever you end up doing. And know you have done a great job the past years. Even though some PVP-ers seem to dissagree on some points. I am sure one day new changes will be made and another one can take the punches. -
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all...

I am slowly getting used to it now that it stops falling down so often. But then again... Public transport is almost normal again.
Still.. snow is a lot nicer when looked upon from inside a warm house. -
Although I have more MM's I mostly play my main Necro/Dark/Soul.
After over 4.5 years she is incredible IO-ed out. Still I noticed, especially in the Apex, that tactic and strategy is needed to do real damage.
Send in T1 pets and they will be killed... but not before the DoT effect has started.
Use the time to hold/debuff the enemy with your secondary
Drag a ghost from one of the bodies
Resummon all and kill off
Since she is incarnate END is no problem anymore (Cardiac END/RESS). Although the new tf's are capable of still draining me of END due to using so much. I have and use personal attacks too... and I run fitness: Tough too. But with enough END resummoning is no problem at all.
Some pointers...
- The resummon time of Grave Knights is really really fast. And at times like with Battle Maiden I only summon them.
- Stay close to your pets if you can. Supremacy is a powerful tool. That is also the reason I upped my HP, my REGEN and my RESS so much. Even though I am not a real Tankermind.
- Don't underestimate your secondary. At times I play more like a Corr with some added help then like a MM. And I hardly use Bodyguard mode at all.
Still... Every MM plays a bit different. And none are mindless hacking. Playing an MM holds some feeling with it, and I would never recommend one for a starting player. -

I want the leveling to 50 to be real quick, then the developers can make all future content for level 50s.
What if I want to try out an illusion controller some weekend? Its weeks of "work" through stuff I've done many times before until I get the higher illusion powers. The content is not "skipped" I've done it all before.
The game is build with the new player in mind who shouldnt skip the content at all.. As the new player would never have done it.
Hell No! on both accounts (from a 54 months vet who also done it all) -
Agreed... we need more like these.
Managed Apex yesterday with a PuG! Didnt manage to take out Battle Maiden in 15 min though. Will try Tin Mage asap. -
I was planned to be there the second raid... but real life took over with a vengeance
-
My strategy was fullout attack.. dont think.. and use debuffs. Thats all.. Thank you

Got the common Cardiac last night.. Pretty easy too. Bought the G'Rai matter (I had already over 1000 Vanguard merits) and then went to do an ITF (for the Nictus Essence)... and during that tf I got enough drops to make the Hero 1 DNA sample. Presto!
Today bought my second G'Rai matter. And I still have some shards left from the ITF. So I will do a LGTF and most likely can build the uncommon directly after.
I find doing two tf's for two alpha boosts is easy... maybe too easy :S -

ps... The Alpha slot boosts will work the best on things you are not the best in. As a boost to your weak side. As it is liek adding an extra enhance to all powers that can handle that enhance. If you are an almost capped defence toon... I should actualy take the damage resist. I went for Cardiac as I still have END probs in big battles and I grabbed three diff damage resist powers that each are not that good. But the Cardiac will add a good amound of ress to each of those powers. Adding up in the best numbers I could get from it. Oh.. and I use fear too.. and range is always good. -
Life-times are for games that actually are unsure if they still excist in 3 years time. Grabbing as much money as you can get at the start...
Monthly subs are a lot more reliable.. and in the long run earn a LOT more money. Life-time subs are a bad idea for games that do well. And COX does very well in the reliable sub part. -

When the playstyle in question is all about breaking the game (to (a) get at the sweet sweet candy immediately and, IMO, without real effort and (b) to show that you're better, more clever, etc than the people who made it), then yeah.
I confess that some of my negative reaction is because I play this game to try to escape reality... but as soon as I log in, I'm surrounded by people, acting like people, with all that implies. Atlas Park broadcast on many servers is a fine proof of Humans Are (lazy, greedy, selfish) Bastards, as if we needed more.
Throwing the detonator out the window is awesome in the movie, but let's face it: most people here would mash the button immediately if it meant saving their level 50s, and [bleep] everyone on the other ferry. Doubly so if you actually got xp for them. The Devs' biggest sin in creating AE was trusting and having faith that the players would be better than that. Well, you sure showed them, huh? That'll learn 'em to ever give you the benefit of the doubt!
So yes, for me at least, it comes down to anger and disappointment at my fun being (partly) spoiled by my fellow humans' petty (not Epic) FAIL. -
Quote:On trapdoor I was still solo... I run against him while he was debuffed with Darkest night and tar patch.. with all zzombs out. I cannot recall him ever making a clone. I havent seen him using his powers. I might have missed it. Just threw all powers I had on him with pets on aggressive. It took about 20 sec I think.Originally Posted by RemusShepherd
It depends on the squishie. My Kin defender is an endurance draining pro. Usually when she fights an EB it gets one shot at her, and even if it holds her it can't take advantage of that because it has no endurance.
For example, I don't think Trapdoor got off an attack. His duplication power is apparently endurance free, because he summoned lots of clones. But I just Power Pushed him into the lava and kept his blue bar empty.
And I was on +1/x3 -
Quote:My solution and suggestion to the devs is simple then!Originally Posted by Shubbie
Im finnished now, I already dropped it.
Im saying this is bad game design, the teaming situation is doubly exasperated by villian imbalance, no cross faction and people are dropping it all over the place.
MAKE SURE THIS MISSION CANNOT BE DROPPED!
Incarnate should be hard to become. I actually asked one friend and we duo-ed it on +1/x3 with AV's.
Also... we where both villain... we pulled two shivan's. And we both activated Demonic Aura. And then aggroed both AV's whahahahahahaaha... And won! -
Quote:That is generalisation... Still run a highly active villain SG and have done so for over 4.5 years. UNION villain side still has a few hundreds at least.Originally Posted by Shubbie
Doesnt help the mission is not cross faction and villianside is a complete and desolate wasteland on almost every server.

Quote:My WELLSLOTTED Shadow Fall gives enough Negative Energy ressistence to tank the Imperious TF. And Shadow Fall + Stealth IO makes me able to ghost very well too. Also... since I have Shadow Fall I havent been feared once in all those years).Originally Posted by Fleeting Whisper
Praise for Steamy Mist and Arctic Fog, but you ignore Shadow Fall? It's pretty similar to the other two:
Arctic Fog: 35ft stealth, 5% Melee/Ranged/AoE def, 20% Fire/Cold/Energy res, 60% Speed/Recharge res
Steamy Mist: 35ft stealth, 5% def(all), 20% Fire/Cold/Energy res, 216.25% Confuse res, -8.65 Confuse
Shadow Fall: 35ft stealth, 5% def(all), 20% Psionic/Energy/Negative res, 216.25% Fear res, -8.65 Fear
Arctic Fog doesn't grant full-spectrum defense, but the damage resistance it grants is commonly encountered and slows are more common than Confuse and Fear in PvE. Steamy Mist and Shadow Fall only differ by two damage types and the status effect; Shadow Fall has an advantage of granting Psionic resistance, which can be found fairly often, but resistance can be hard to come by. -

Gale is a very good KB power. I'm not sure how "amazing" it is though. I really wish MORE people would remove it from their trays though. I've seen it used in some amazingly bad ways.
I'd sure love to see those smart people use it. Seriously, enlighten me.
@chaos nex
I think snow storm is underrated in both pve and pvp. Autohit massive slow and -recharge. -
Quote:My main hardly touches the ground.. Hover is ALWAYS on. No melee damage.. and great control to do things like Howling Twilight or Soul Tentacles. And then the added defence... and a place to slot a LotG 7.5% recharge in.Originally Posted by Jacinto
A hearty thank you for saying something of Hover, so many people dislike it, but I value it on ranged characters simply because most critters cannot fly, and since most are melee-heavy, they can't smash the squishy Blaster's/Corruptor's/Dom's/Controller's face as easily or as quickly, and certainly not with the +def to all ((I think it's all, could be wrong))
-
Quote:Whahahaha... there are actually people thinking Howling Twilight is a bad power?!Originally Posted by Come Undone
I think the problems may be that they think of it as a group rez, and not an awesome debuff/stun that happens to have a group rez as a side effect, along with the fact that since pets can't be rezed they think of it as not useful for them.
Yes.. This is a mass debuff that has a group ress as side effect. I am always laughing my head off when I totally stun a whole mob (auto hit, no acc check) for over 18 seconds while my whole mob of zombies run in and kill them all. -
Quote:Especially agree on Thunderclap... Took it because of the awesome sound... Slotted with three acc. (the acc is low on this power).Originally Posted by _Zep_
Thunderclap. It gets dissed because it only stuns minions. That still means a whole lot of minions are stunned. It recharges very fast and can take some really spiffy IO's.
It stunns over 80% of the mob you are hovering above. That has to count for something. -

P.S. You're off to a good start (I really like her expression and the way her hair turned out) and I look forward to what you come up with next. Two things I am curious about... it looks almost like there is a face in the chair behind her (right next to her head) is that intentional? Also is that blood running down the wall in the background?
yes on both accounts... -
hmm...

You should Liz. Now would certainly be the time as I count at least 9 (and maybe a few I'm forgetting at this early hour) artists that have cropped up out of nowhere in the last few months.
Some not having drawn in many many years as well, some just starting up and others returning from hiatus. It's a good time to be drawing in the CoH forums.
