Oh they do in the most delishous of ways!
Best is with Soldiers of Archnos damn teh Advanced Leadership powers
combined with the Leadership Power Pool Set equal a most wonderous
Character to have in any team but add another person with those
leadership skills as well and then you are relly cooking with gas, I mean
damn it's making all my heard efferot and struggle to get my Hunts Man
(with a few Bane Powers) up to a reasonble Level 20.
I would agree they seem a ifish when soloing but once your teamed up
then those skills show there true worth and trust me it Priceless!
Edited Bit:
It says leadership in Powerpool set but it dosen't mean only one in the team
can have them hell no the more you have in the team themore benifit the
whole team which is why having several Soldiers of archnos is an awsome
thing to have and I do hope to be able to take one iover to the hero side
come the releas eof Going Rouge. -
Me I take on board advice given but I don't treat it like it was gospal, I'll
use it but I'll in the end go by what feels right and is fun for my style of
playing and how I Enjoy playing.
True I like to have a plan or road map but I also know I probaly wont
follow it exactly but that's part of the attraction of games like this playing
it how you want to and having fun in the process.
It's when people demand and try to force you to follow a strict style of
doing things and what to take that is when a game stops being fun and
frankly it's why I cancled my subscription to WoW as to many people
telling me how I must Play or how I must do this or that like I was to copy
them exactly......Hell No! -
This is most intresting might pick a few Bane powers my self but use
mostly Wolf Spider Stuff, I know I'll be picking all the Advanced leadership
Powers in the secondry Power Set for the Soldiers of Arachnos.
That and all the leadership Skills in the Leadership Power Pool Set.
Not awfully keen on the Mual though probably leave that outright.
EDITED BIT:
Can you turn your Soldiers of Arachnos into a hero eventually when the Going
Rouge comes out as that would be quite intresting thing to do and see how
that would pan out. -
Here's some thing to consider having both a Brute as well as a Tank for
your mission, now I don't know about you but that is quite a scary and
knee trembling thought having two giants pounding the crap out of the
boss.
One just sucking up all the Boss can throw while the other is hitting harder
and harder as their bar starts to increaseI have seen it first hand in
the War Zone and each time found mys elf dreaming about having the
option for this, a dream soon to come true muwahahaha!
Don't know about any one else but I Intend to bring a tank over to
theVillians side and a Brute over to the Heroes Side. -
At the moment my Stalker (Ninja Primary and Secondry PowerSet) has
now got Hurdle & Swift man it's golden I love it, can not wait to ad
enhancement slots.
Might go the whole hog and whack in the Health and Stamina also in that
Fittness Power Pool but damn he jumps and move faster can't wait until I
can aquir eteh single origion Enhaments from the Neutral Store to giive it
that little extra some thing *Drools* -
TriNitroToluene@:
Thank's At work it's a Mac' at homeit's a nice PC soit can be awkward at
times heh
Rangle M. Down:
I 'm sure it will my friend,I'm sure it will! -
Level 28 and I have often wondered what the:
'Select or rename your active build'
Meant but was a bit to wiry to click it and when I asked people I know they didn't know or I was told stopping such a NooB!
(I gaver that 'NooB' means Newbie?)
But I was looking for something entitled:
'Switch Builds' -
gameboy1234@:
I see thanks I'll try that!
Timeshadow@:
I'll try your's as well though to be honest I guess it boils down to me
being lazy in wanting to use click and forget rather than having to
remember to click on some thing each time.
But I'll give it a whirl, it not like all those buttons the
Controlers/Mastermind shave to deal with and tobe honest I tried a
Mastermind once it rocked but to many buttons for me which was what
mostly put me off, I have to say those who do and carry on through with
Controlers and Masterminds have my admeration!
ON a seperate note what happened to my Infamous Level and 2 red bars
I kinda liked that!
-
Ah I see thank you, so not so much 'Switch Builds' but
'Select or rename your active build' Thank you Dersk! ^_^ -
Quote:Hmnnnnn I see your point there, hmnn I'll give it a whirll after all if it dosen't feel right I can delete the character and start again *Nods*
On top of that it looks like you're letting your experience with other ATs influence your build entirely too much. SoAs aren't Brutes, Tankers, Blasters, or Corrs. As Epic ATs they're a bit of a mishmash between various standard ATs but their various elements combine to give them their own flavor. Trying to base your selections off what's worked for you before on X prior AT is a flat horrible idea.
And what's Gimping?
Keep seeing that expresion all over the place but have no idea what the
hell it means? @_@ -
Kitsune Knight@:
I See, reason I use Toggle and Auto's over clicks for any thing but my
fighting powers is becouse I find my self getting distracted so much that I
forget about what I am fighting an dend up being planted face first into
the ground heh
Embarasingly enough its why I prefer the Toggle and Auto's now heh.
Live_Wyre@:
There's a problem with having multiple Trays open, since I have Chat,
Navigation and target open at the same time if I hav emore than two
Tray's open then I wont have room to enjoy the look of the game as it' be
way to cluttered.
I guess Icould close all but the trays but then I'd have to pause regularly
to re-open the Navigation an dchat to talk to people and to see where I'm
going. -
Timeshadow@:
Hmnn I see but I'll keep the Batynet power and just dump
the Soul Tenticlles, none the other Patron Powers actualy do it for me to
be honest, true their awsome an ddo great stuff but dont feel right for
me.
Part of my chooices for powers is having them fit in with the character of
the toon, I write the Bio the base the outfit and what powers I hope to
choose around that, I find I have tons of fun that way but then again
that's my style of playing heh.
With the dumping of the Soul Tenticles I'll probably add Either the Frag or
Venom Grenade power, or if I drop Baynet as you suggest and have both
Grenades.
How ever the Second Tray will all readybe open containing the toggle
powers and the Pocket-D and Heal so wont be able to use the CTRL +
(number).
Goshnova@:
Maybe it's having play a Tank and a Brute as my main characters on
CoH & CoV's but I tend to feel you can never have enough armour heh.
Kitsune Knight:@
As for Survalence problem is again Room that plus Unless it's one the
Attack powers I prefer to use only Auto or Toggle so I can just click on
once and forget while I concentrate on attacking.
But yeah I do understand that survalence is quite a good power to have
and if it was a Toggle Power I'd snap it up A.S.A.P.
But Health I fear I must keep, maybe it's becouse I've been a Tank so
much in CoH but IWouldn't feel safe wit out it. T_T -
Axe Shield Brute proved to be extreamly hard to get to level 20 had I
chosen Axe/Will Power then it would have been smoothe sailing, don't get
me wrong Iwouldn't change the Sheild for Will Power now for the world as
it was a fun if not frustrating.
I choose Soul Tenticles and Wide area Web becouse of two reasons.
The Soul Tenticles I would have to wait until far end of 40 to get, the
web grenade I can get and use sooner, once I have Soul Tenticles Icould
all ways use a respec or keep them both incase one fails.
As for Venom and Frag Grenades there nice but where would Ifit them in
the first tray since I have only Eight hot keys I can attach to each attack
I have to be careful what I choose and use.
I coul dgive up Pummle and Baynet but then I would be pretty screwed
when the enemy gets in to close and I can't pull away, this has happened
far to many times when I tried corruptor and a blaster.
Now since the Soldiers of Arachnos has both Melee and Ranged combat
capabilities I'd be a fool not utilise at least one or two Melee.
(Or one or Two Ranged if I go for Melee style)
Problem is though Kitsuine need eith Swift or Hurdle in order to get Stamina
and since I'm using the Ninja Run as my Transport power getting both Swift
and Hurdle will stack well with it.
But I do see where Devil Dingo is coming from . -
If your asking for both high damage and being able to stand around for a
little longer than a Scrapper would normaly do, I recomend getting abrute
and turning it to the Hero side when City of Rouges(sp) come sout fully. -
Now that my brute has reached level 20 I can finaly start making my
Soldier of Arachnos character, been looking forwards to this for some time
and worked my buttocks off to but finaly I have acheaved it!
Now I just didn't feel comfortable with the War Shade or the Peace Maker
it just felt so wrong and I could not enjoy playing the game with them,
don't get me wrong they are indeed increadble and mind blowing but for
me personaly I didn't feel comfortable with them.
Now I have so far only created the look and found my self dissopointe I
could not have more choice in the way it looked but what I really found to
disopoint me was the fact you can not choose to have no Helmet with
your Soldier of Arachnos while the Widow could?!?!?!?
But that aside the Skills I am hoping to take:
Primary: Single Shot, Burst, Wide Area Web Grenade, Heavy Burst, Pummel, Bayonet, Call Reinforcements.
Secondary: Wolf Spider Armor, Combat Training: Defensive, Combat Training: Offensive,
Tactical Training: Maneuvers, Tactical Training: Assault, Tactical Training:Leadership,
Mental Training.
Career Track: Bane Spider Armor Upgrade, Cloaking Device.
Patron, Soul Mastery: Soul Tentacles.
Power Pool:
Leader Ship - Maneuvers, Assault, Tactics.
Fitness - Swift & Hurdle [used with Ninja Run], Health, Stamina.
(In Key Tray Order)
Main Attack:
1. Wide Area Web Grenade
2. Single Shot
3.Burst
4.Heavy Burst
Specile:
Q. Pummel
W. Bayonet
E.Soul Tentacles
R. Call Reinforcements
Misc:
9. Secondry Mutation.
0. Ninja Run.
Tray Two:
Pocket-D Teleport.
Jump Pack.
Aurbous Gate Summon.
Heal.
Toggle Powers.
And that's my plan and goal for this character and my play style, of
cource it may change as I play which is pretty much half the fun! ^__~ -
Okay been looking but have not found an option listed as: switch builds
Change Title & Rename Build or Character yes but no Switch Builds option. -
Does Swift and Hurdle and Tempory powers stack with Ninja Run?
Just that I have Swift and Hurdle on my Brute for CoV's as well as
Ninja Run but I am not seeing much diferance, do they stack with
Ninja Run or only with Sprint?
I ask becouse my Brute: Warrior of Chaos (Lv18 Shield/Axe) is using
Ninja Run as its travel power rather than Flight and Teleport, why not
use Flight or Teleport?
Well beocuse I got Ninja Run with out needing to use a selection
from the power Pool plus I can use Stamina and Heath from the Fitness
power Pool is why
So any way back to my question Can Ninja Run be stacked with:
Swift.
Hurdle.
Super Speed.
Combat Jumping.
Super Jump. -
What do you mean by second Build?
Do you mean make the character all over again and start from scratch? -
So can I via a Re-Spec realocate enhancement slots or is the Re-Spec for
rechoosing powers only?
Also if I use a re-spec and choose a new power do I loose the
Enhancement slots all ready used? -
So basicly 3x Single Origin is good but a Forth wont get as much from it,
Then I could use 3x Single Origin and then a Dual Origin to get more out of
it?
So if I have this right 3x Single Origin = 58.5
If I add a Dual Origin to it instead of just another Single Origin that would
give a better boost espechily if I can add x2 or x3 Dual Origin's along side
the x3 Single Origin correct?
Waitr now I hav confused my self @_@ -
Had a good read of it and to be honest it was all gobbled Goop!
All that Maths and stuff was lost on meQuote:What the hell? @_@70% ≤ E < 90%
I'm sorry Rangle M. Down, I tried to read it but it went right over
my head, I am the first to admit to being extreamly poor in the feild
of maths and understand that sort of thing. -
je_saist right never rely or use Microsoft Windows for Internet protection it's
fire walls are a joke in spite of all they say and do, Luckily Mc'Afee come part
and parcle with my internet provider cost more when the bill come sin from
my provider but is so worth it.
I gave the link for the Malware Bytes offical home page earlyer there
Malwarebytes Anti Malware is free to use as stand alone scan.
However when you get a good one remember to reguarly update an dcheck
for updates or you might as be using Microsoft Windows. -
Problem I fear is slot's you only get so many or so the Character Builder
has shown me which mean I have to be careful how many I use with out
depriving my defencive Powers.
But aye I see what you mean, I do miss so often with The Shadow Mual
and Arial Superiority WHich I often use in tandom, heh actualy it's a
combo I guess has become Piffit's signature move.
(Dark Mual Followed stright away with Arial Superiorty)
I find it to be quite effective in help keep my Bad Guy's pinned down! -
I highly recomend Malwarebytes Anti Malware, it works wonderfully and
so long as you up date it regualy it good as a free anti
Virus/Malware/Scareware/Ruletool scan.
It's compatable for Microsoft Windows 32 Bit & 64 Bit.
http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebyte...=dl&tag=button
You can even remove infections with the free version.
Mac'Fee is also extreamly good though you have to pay for that.
