    Thanks ^_^

    That would be Self Destruct avable with the Cyborg Upgrade Package,
    Or do you mean the Endurance Only would go to zero or the Health would
    compleatly go down to zero as well?
  3. I all ways feel safe having at least one defender or equiverlent (CoV) not so
    much for the Teleport Friend and Reserect (Which is nice) but for the sheer
    De-Buffing of the Targets and buffing of the team that they supply is
    invaluble.

    I've done pleanty of missions with just Blasters or just scrapers some times a
    mix of the two, once did a crazy thing and we had five Tanks between Lv25
    (me) and level 40 it was insane and so funny to watch these five brutes
    going in and laying waste. (Took ages mind to do the mission though)

    Now I bet this has been covered before and others before me have
    had a go at creating their own power set as a bit of laugh but hell
    I just had to give it a whirl and blow me but it wasn't easy to come
    up with some thing that is ballanced an dnot ove rpowered, makes
    you realize just how much of a Rum-Do the developers have creating
    powers sets! O_o

  5. Two whole weeks forgiveme for sounding impatient(sp) but rather make a
    Poor version of Blaster using a Corruptor O_O *Blinks* damn maybe would do
    that for my first character a Tank which I compleatly enjoy using despite not
    going for the Stone / Stone build many of friends demanded I use.
    (Used a Will power & Dark Melle)
    But that characters for another section really.


    Hmnn see what you mean about the bean Bag however,

    "MUWAHAHAHA!...Tremble Statesman at the Power of my Beanbag!"

    Some how just dosen't sound of feel right for a Bad Guy!


    Hmnnn but certainly all that's been said is definatly food for thought.
  6. Sounds good how long would the process take to bring a Blaster over to
    the dark side and any idea if it would be a time consuming to do so?
  7. Problem is Blasters are City Of Heroes not City Of Villans which I am Playing.

    Unless I can bring over a Blaster over from City Of Heroes to City Of Villans
    creating aBlaster is not a an otion wish it where as I love the Gun Drone.
  8. Okay had careful thought and re-did the build I hope to do, went for Assault
    Rifle again but this time added Traps, now I guess I could have gone for the
    Trip Wire, Poison Trap and Time Bomb but to be honest with you I want to
    remain mobile incase of getting over run as I ave suffered this many a time
    during a mission with othersespechily against the Tsoo and those darn
    Sorcerers who love vanishing and repearing only to buff and heal their fellow
    NPC just as your about to to kill it.

    And those Ancestrial SPirits are insufferable how they charge right through
    you like some Some locmotive I can all most picture them shouting:
    "I'm the *beep*ing Juganuaght *Beep*!"

    So I hope this build will allow me to be effective yet highly mobile at the
    same time.

    Beautfuly thank you, I fully understand now Thanks *Nods*
    And Agreed much to to ponder and use Thanks Again!
  10. Logan Storm

    First Defender

    For give my ignourance and Imean no dissrespect but when peopel start
    throwing numbers and percetages towards me my mind goes blank and I'm
    left some what confused with a vacent look on my face @_@
    Same with all those game terms and abreveations(sp) for names and
    stuff

    Basicly could you repeate that with out all the figures, in a way even a Idot
    like me oculd understand please?
  11. Logan Storm

    First Defender

    Hmnn I see, well certainly food for thought and some thing for me to
    digest and muse over.

    My reasons for the Buld I guess where in theory any way.
    I could use Gale to blow any one who come's to close away from me and
    use Lightning Storm Storm latter on when I could get it to add alittle
    damage to those who get to close.

    The Stealth I could use when thing go pair shape and allow me to move
    away safely before using the Recall Friend to bring them to safty and then
    use both Resuscitate and Aid Others to awaken them and give them a bit
    health.

    And mostly having the Electric Blast so I could have some fun blasting at
    stuff from a distance, guess it all look sgood on paper but I guess from
    your expirences it must be a difreant thing in practice.

    So fair enough will re-think the powers
  12. Logan Storm

    First Defender

    I have to admit not been playing long still around my first month maybe
    more though probly not, but being hearing so much smack about
    Defenders how their best used as only Healers and or Givving Um I think
    the term was Buff's.

    Now I was reading teh description and they look as though they would
    make pretty fine ranged attack units simmilar if not unlike the Blasters, so
    I figured let see what I can do.
    (Forgive the poor spelling please.)

    What I hope to create:

    Primary Power: Storm Summoning.
    Gale
    Lightning Storm


    Secondry Power: Electrical Blast.
    Charged Bolts
    Lightning Bolts
    Ball Lightning
    Zap
    Tesla Charge
    Voltaic Sentinel
    Thunderous Blast

    Power Pools:
    Recall Friend
    Teleport
    Team Teleport
    Aid Self
    Aid Others
    Resuscitate


    Might change some the powers in the Power Pool,
    'Aid Others' for 'Grant Invisibility'
    Resuscitate' for 'Invisibility'

    I was inspried by some thing I saw on youtube:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww8GwStHfPk

    "I'm an archer if you stand still I'll shoot you with my healing arror,
    I hear a direct shot to the heart does wonders!"
    (4 Min's and 30 Secs' into it.)

    Damn that cracked me up, okay it was more funny when the character
    said it heh!
  13. Hmnn okay might take it then *Nods*
    But that Bean bag no way, it might have a function and use but no way
    will I touch that one with a ten foot barge pole and a perfect disguse lol!
  14. I see was going to just Have gale to knock any one who gets to close
    away from me, hmnn but I see your point and seem I messed up and put
    an 'S' infrontof Rifle heh

    The ignite that does Damage over Time Wont that prove troublesome to
    to your teammates if they have to pull pull back or the minions of your
    Teams Mastermind?

    Though Bean Bag can not be much good can it? look and sound a little
    embarasing to even having well for mean evil Villan any way?

    "MUWAHAHAHA!...Tremble Statesman at the Power of my Beanbag!"

    Yeah....I think the Hero's would die all right, die Laughing at me!
  15. So far I have a Tanker which is now comming along so sweetly now it's
    level 20 I feel no hastle or concerns with that one any more, a Brute that
    is causing some concerns and frustrations.

    But also A Corruptor, he has a Maffia Made Man feel about him.
    Originaly I had him at level nine with duel pistols an dit was great no
    problems but what niggle dme was the Pistols great as tehy where they
    just didn't have that full on Dakka Dakka Feel to them whereyou dig your
    feet in and just let rip with a Metal Storm of lead.

    And let face it when useing guns yopu like to fele as though your letting
    rip with a devistating hail of gunfire or if your sniping to acualy belive your
    unleashing a high powered round of destruction, the Pistols though
    awsome and well worth using just didn't have that full on letting rip feel.

    So saving his out fit I deleted remade him and started again this time with
    a Militry Assualt Rifle. (Was tempted to go Merc' Assault Rifle)
    Still in the Tutorial section and have: Burst but I all ready figured out a
    nice plan for him as shown below hopefully it'll rock.

    The Enhancements will be in set's of Three to give it that little extra just
    like Momma used to make Taste ^_^


  16. So just stick at it and pwer through best I can and try to join groups so I
    can get missions done very well will do, Thanks!
  17. Ghnnn thisis so frustrating to start with for the first five levels it was easy
    sailing useing a Brute with Axe and Shield but now I keep dieing left right
    and center, it looks awsome as a character but us ewis eits driving me
    silly.

    Doing the Mission where you have to Mop Up some Snake Men and get
    Five NPC's aiding you but I can not even kill the first two now I just get
    wiped out in moments O_o

    I have Deflection and Battle Agility but I still see my Health go to zero in
    no time flat O_o
  18. And 'SD' that would be?

    I Choose Magic as the origin since it fit in well with the feel and
    charceter of the avatar would normal been better do you think
    then?
  19. 'Sos'??????
    um not sure what that is as I still do not kknow all these Game terms
    and abreviations that people keep throwing at me and automaticly
    expecting me to know T_T

    I was able to use the Name 'Warrior of Chaos' Yay!

    Gave him a Shield and a Battle axe he looks a lot like a Chaos Warrior
    from Warhammer Fantasy Battles, it just looks and feels so comfortable
    like an old pair of slippers mnnn just right qnd he handles really great, just
    a shame you can not have a mix of Will Power and Sheild as that would
    Rock!
  20. Well now I've got Piffit my Tanker in CoH up to 20 gonna have a whirl in
    CoV and looking through the options the Brute just felt so right to me, it
    just cries out out "PICK ME!" I had a look and found it look a lot like a
    cross between a Scraper and a Tanker which instantly got me excited.

    Now while Will Power looks like a safe bet from reading the detail for each
    power in the set it just didn't feel right the other sets also just did nothing
    for me except one the Shield one I didn't even need to read the Details it
    just felt right the other Power was Battle Axe I can not explain it only that
    it felt comfortable.

    I decided upon a name:Warrior of Chaos
    The name pretty much inspired itself from looking at the Avatar.

    But I am wondering even though it feels comfortable did I make the right
    choice for primary and secondry Powers on a first time CoV Character?
  21. Okay um one more question please heh
    What does:

    DamRes
    EndRed
    HPT
    MoB
    IW
    IOs

    Mean?
  22. Logan Storm

    Dumb Question!

    Reached Level 20 now and focuse do the will power skills espechily the
    ones you can Toggle on and off, man it made a major differance, able to
    survive and even not end up having to wait to be awakened or heading to
    hospital now.

    Though I realy do not like the XP Debt thing you have to pay off if you do
    go to Hospital, though I have tried over types and while the Scrapper was
    fun I just didn't feel right so tie dmaking diferant Tanker type but none of
    them felt like a comfortable fit to me so I went back to my Character: Piffit
    with it's Will Power/Dark Melee and it felt perfect like a decent pair of jean
    that isn't to tight but at the same time not to loose, just right.

    I've been using the advice given here trying it out and I have to thank you
    all greatly for your kind assitance, even got me a new costume, went for a
    Cybernetic Piffit which is looking good the next Clothing slot not sure how
    to aquire that I intend to make a Ninja outfit.

    Oh and gonna try out the City of Villans half the Brute looks awsome a mix
    of Scrapper and Tanker a perfect Combination that drew me in stright away
    espechily the the Shield and Battle Axe combo!
    *Heads over to the Brute section post haste*
  23. Now that I have finally hit level 16 with my first character, I was wondering with Power Enhancements on the following skills for 'Will Power' :

    High Pain Tolerance
    Mind Over Body
    Fast Healing
    Indomitable Will

    I can take a rough guess that Heal, Endurance Reduction and Recharge Reduction are a must but what about the other slots is there anything
    in particular I should put in those?
    Or can I just add more of the same by stacking and combing those three enhancements?
  24. Logan Storm

    Dumb Question!

    I owe people an apolagy as it is Aerial Superiorty not Areial Melee,
    my apolagies to you all!

    My Avatar's name or Toon if you will: Piffit
    *Wiggles Happily*

    Oh and what server am I? Protector.
  25. Logan Storm

    Dumb Question!

    Thank you so much for your answers and links to guides, they are
    extreamly apresheated, oh and it is arial Assualt I think it's in the
    Power Pool under Hover and required to get Fly.

    So I should try to get those other Primary Wilpower skills as well!
    *Jots this down*
    And make a Scrapper to get to know the game better.....Right-O!
