Aha I see hmnn which would prove problamatic for a character using Willpower & Dark Meele unless I use the full 'Ghost Widows Embrace'
set on one of the 'Soul Mastery' patron powers when I get it hmnnnn.

Thanks for the answers, it's greatly apresheated.

Okay I have the Ghost widows Embrace set and My Tank is now a Villian
but I can not get the Enhancements to to go nto the slots.

Piffit's Level 39 and the enhancement's are also level 39 but they wont go
into Shadow Maul which is one the power's I regularly(sp) use, its most
frustrating to be sure....is tehre some thing so increadbly obvious that I
am missing?


Second question is my Full Ninja set-up Stalker has a super Group and
Super base but is teh only one init, now if I cross ove rto being a hero and
the the control of the group automaticly goes to the next member in line
what happens when there is no one else for the control to be handed to?

A lot of mission stealthing through it is awsome but on some mission where
you have to kill every one or have to kidnap or escort some one back to
the beginging of the map stealth is not worth it beocus eyou still have to
clear the way to get the one your escorting back with as little obstruction
as possible.

The pro's for me are:
Get's mission done faster and extreamly more easily, if useing a stalker
then the Assassins blow helps take down the guy your sent to kill quicker,
it also allows you to gather the Mission Item in the mission map with out
having to worry about the en-mass of enemies espechly when you have
to go through a hall way of hell!


For me the con's are and only really three for me:
1. You don't get as much Exp as you would killing every thing onthe map.
2. You can't escort any one.
3. Unless your a tank or brute Stealth wont help you if you are detected
while walk past a massive swarm of enemies, well save for the
primary/Secondry power that gives bonuses similar to those with the stalker.

So yeah stealth is awsome to have but it comes with some
diss-advantages as well!


Edited Bit: It's all so great if you have to go AFK for any reason ^_^

The thing some people seem to forget is it's all good to say get that skill
and this skill as well but remeber you have a fixed amount of skills you can
have and if you wish to have most if not all of both Primary and
Secondary power sets then that will leave even less options for you to
work with when it comes to the Power Pools not to mention the awsome
Patron Powers.

Now having up to about 16 Powers from both Primary and Secondary will
leave only about 7, 3 of which reserved to get Stamina and Health which
need either Swift or hurdle to get.
This leaves only 4 Powers left to choose, and to behoest that makes
deciding on what use it onquite tough since there will be Patron Powers
to aquire as well.

Aye it is Protector I am on but thank you for your offer guys for assistance!

Done it at last even with all the difrent Insperation Combo's I still kept getting
face palnted over and over againit was a nightmare, in one Task Force before
every one gave up and went onto some thing else Two tanks and two
scrappers and myself a bit of a mess who really needs to decide to correct his
build to either Scranker or tanker and not piddle about between the two.

(Makes note to get a Re-Spec recipe and and make my build either Tank
or scrank rather than a punch bag that can't hold agro or deal much
damage at all)


The Next Task Force Team we hade three Dfenders A scraper and me we
died so many times thankfully one the Defenders stayed back near the
begining of the mission and would teleport us back so he could reserect us
all the Nosfortu spawned and went after the lone defender before we could
get to him.

It was insane we still ende dup being face planted but yeterday after all
but giving up and deciding to take the advice about waiting untill I was a
higher level Iwas aproache dby an old friend, we got talking and I explained
the problem I was having so said comee with me we'll do it right now, I tried
to explain how impossible it was but they just laughed and said to trust them
so I did and with one of my SUper group a Blaster this defender took me from
first mission right through to the last one and to my suprise the only troubles
we encountered was with the last three end bosses of the final mission but
that was due to the reinforcements the summoned espeshily Requiem.

So To my Super Group Leader and to 'Zeuses Avatar' Thank you so much
for helping me your both so much for ending this nightmare!
But also a Big Thank you to all of you who have offered avdvice Thank
You! ^_^

Hmnn actualy Rylas has a fair point about the Shadow Mual since I my self
do have troubles with that power espechily when the enemy is higher
levels more so if they are Bosses, as they do tend to be hard to hit
with Shadow Maul in fact the only attack I seem to be able to hit with
some times s the Shadow Punch and Smite.

*Mutters about Nosfortu Bosses*

Yeah I have trouble hitting with Drak Meele myself but you can take Pool
Powers and even add enhancements to improve upon this, I know how
frustrating it can be espechily when it sucks your Endurance bar like a
starved vampire.
I mean no dissrespect to any one but it does seem that Dark Meele
though an increadbly awsome Power set perfect for Tanks and Brutes
more so for brutes due to that delishous unique bar they have.

Problem is hitting espechly when the *Beep*'s mess with you using their
own powers to De-Buff you, you end up standing their swinging
away with out hitting any thing while your Endurance bar is going down
swiftly untill your Toggled Defence suddenly goes off line and you get all
most instant face planted becouse of it.

I so epic failed repeatedly but wont give in on this one,
may take another days break from it just to calm down.

Hmnn if ihave done my sum's correctly (all ways sucked at maths) takeing
considerations of from Lv 1 to Lv 40 you get a Skill every second Level Up
and the one skill every Three Level Up's from Lv40 to Lv50.

Would mean I can have up to a max of 23 skill not including Inherent powers
or those from Booster Packs and Tempory Powers.

Well here's my first Plan which is by no means to be set in stone and may
probably change over time.


Primary: War Mace.

Bash
Pulverize
Jawbreaker
Build Up
Clobber
Whirling
Shatter
Crowd Control


Secondry: Will Power.

High Pain Tolerance
Mind Over Body
Fast Healing
Indomitable Will
Rise to the Challenge
Quick Recovery
Heightened Senses
Resurgence


Power Pool: Fitness, Combat Jumping.

Swift
Hurdle
[Used in conjunction to Ninja Run]
Health
Stamina
Combat Jumping


Brute Mu Mastery:

Mu Lightning
Electrifying Fences

But as I said I have to select either Boxing or Kick just to geth Weave and
Tough, and I do not want Boxing or Kick, I do not see why I should have
to get a skill I do not want just for two Good Skills.

I'm sorry but to me it makes no sense taking a power you don't want.

Did some checking and to get Weave and Tough I have to have Boxing or
Kick and frankly I don't want eithe rof those two powers yet to get the
two that would be useful I must get two I don't want.

Yeah Boxing and Kick may be good but I really do not want them, and I
don't see why I should get a power or two I do not want justt for two I
do want

Hmnnn good point, though I wont been needing to hold agro and we'll
have a couple of tanks I will more than likely need to be able to take
damage as I build up my bar to give even more nasty damage back to
the targets.

Hmnnn so add Weave and Tough and cancle the 'Leadership' powers
hmnn would 'Combat Jumping' be worth considering as well?

Well mostly for all the team bonuses they give was the main reson for
putting them down on paper as a possibility, I've seen how great they
work in a team and stack well when others in the team use the same
powers as well.

Combine this with the advanced Leadership & Powerpool Leadership
Powers from Archnos Soldiers (some of my friend hope to bring over to the
hero side) and pow we are talking major if not frightning amounts of
bonuses here.

But even with out otehrs adidng any Leadership Powers of their own from
what I could tell my toon alone giving the bonuses should still prove most
useful, well that my thought on selecting 'Leadership' from the powerpool.

Okay building a Brute for when Going Rougeis launched, gonna rush it
to level 20 with help of friends and a ton of Task Force Missions and
en-mass Power Levelling.

Primary: Warhammer.
Secondary: Willpower.



Pool Powers:
Stamina.
Leadership.



Might leave any travel power until much latter since I have Ninja run and
the Mission Teleport Power.

Now I have made a brute all ready and while it's good I'm not over happy
with having chosen the Shield as the secondary Power Set, it's great
don't get me wrong and it looks awesome but it often leaves me
struggling some times and even with 'Stamina' it run's out of endurance
to quick some times.

Now will power form what I have experienced on my Tank doesn't suffer
so much with that espechily with 'Stamina' from the Fitness power pool,
so after some contemplation and reading put together the idea of the
awesome Protection of Willpower with the stunning power of 'Warhammer'
though I was heavily tempted to go with Axe again like with my other
brute.


I do not wish to make a Brute in the form of a poor mans Tank because
that's not what a Brute does best well in my opinion any way, it's best
for laying into the enemy and getting more and more powerful the
higher it's unique bar builds allowing it to do damage well beyond the level
a character of its level should normally be able to do.

Though to be honest I have not yet constructed this Toon yet and it
looks good on paper but then again a lot of things look good but tends
to suck in practice, so I would like peoples thoughts and input before I
move on to the creating of the toon.

Okay giving it another go got my two Villans up to level 20 ready for going
rouge and the chance to have them brought over to the hero side, Now I
am going to give this acursed task force another go!

IronBlade @: Well she had;
Primary: Storm Summoning
Secondary: Psychic Blast

And I am on Protector, though right now taking a break and leveling up my
warhammer/Willpower Brute in readyness to bring him over to the heros come
the Release of Going Rouge.


Sharker_Quint@: I'm at Level 31 one bar from Level 32.

Still can't kill the darn Nosforartu, The Dagger temp power sounds good
saddly don't have that, have to look about trying to get it fom the market
place.

Had a Defender and all this time and we all still got face planted and now
I'm back to being solo since they quite the task force, so having to start from
scratch, getting great Expirence points mind just a shame about the debt
when it comes to that blasted second mission.

Try to bar ewith me beocuse I suck at explaining things.

If you start a super Group and Baase then invite a friend and his and your
other toons fillng up all 15 slots mand getting all that presteage or infamy.
Then after gettng all the travel badges so you can make a teleport of all
locations build the base it self on the smallest plot so you do not hav eto
pay rent.

And spend all the Prestage/infamy before removing those members do you
go into negative Presteage/infamy since you have near or zero
Presteage/Infamy?

Well Sharker_Quint last time it was two Blasters two scrapper and my
Tank, though it differs since it's not all ways teh same team.
(same people but they used differant Toons)

Break free do work for a ocuple of seconds as I have tried that but by the
time I start attacking agin bang I can't land any damage and that blasted
Elite Boss is Planting my face again!

Shame I can't do the Automaticly Compleat Mission like with normal
mission as that would be so much easier lol

Lets see:

Necrotech_Master@: Problem is I can't hold him in place without getting
up Close and personal T_T


Camo_Fire@: Normal Settings, the basic Default.


The Grim Heaper@: What's a Shivan?
Yeah tried the Insperations even diferant combinations od insperations still Face Plant.


WarronPeace@: Problem is he keeps using touch of fear on us making it
impossible to touch him even when using Yellows to improveout accuracy.


Ironblade@: I'm a Willpower/Dark Melee Tank.

Hmnnnn tried again a few hour ago before work still got face planted in no
time flat this is becoming most frustrating.

Hmnn intresting but decided not to take:
Taunt.
Touch of Fear.
Dark Consumption.

And intend to change form:
Ring of Fire.
Melt Armour.
Fireball.

To:
Conserve Power.
Focused Accuracy.

And Having second thoughts about: Midnight Grasp.

Okay in the Ouroboros Mender Lazarus TF the second mission where you
need to install thevirus and turn the Nosfortu, I have tried solo and with a
team and so far been unable to take the elite boss down.

We have been able to take downhis guards but even onhis own he wipes
the floor with us it's getting beyond a joke now, as at one point I ended
up with over 14K worth of Debt others got more.

Is there a trick to this or is it just kill the the Elite Boss?

We been useing a Tank (Me), Blasters and Scrappers.
I last a few seconds then Face Plant followed by every one lese not quick
enough to run away.
