I remember some of those names, weren't they bad guy mutant teams that used to fight the X-Men?

nah! we were the mightiest blasters to ever band together on this server

[/ QUOTE ]

Aren't you dead and missing the top of your head?

Nicely done, so that makes 6 rerolls and finally the 50

Nice drawings/sketches as always Swissy

Depends on your level as people have mentioned, but it doesn't have to be done on the easiet rep level. I've done missions on the highest, and as a result, the villain I rescued conned as a purple Boss, and would promptly destroy anything that came near us. Combined with Shivans, which few people seem to realise the potential of, even the Hero (Likely still Boss in solo), wont be that much of an issue.

Firstly, Acrobatics will be useful as /Nin has no KB protection, so possibly take that at 49 than 'trops.
Not sure yet on whether to keep the snipe or take the Blast, will know more once i respec to test the blast move.
Pet, havent really been a fan of the pets int he PPPs, Soul stalker one gets a nice one with a few tricks, but still it has the long recharge time.
Might want another Def SO in Hidem gives a very nice AoE defense to let you get close to people like spines scrappers with quills, fire tanks and other with PBAoEs.
Not sure on the 3 Jump SOs in SJ, but it's up to you.

Currently have one of these at 42, really should get around to leveling them more. Out of the PPPs, Ive taken the snipe to test the gameplay of it, and am only really after the ST hold, as it's always nice to have a little bit of mez control thrown in. Being a Defense based set tho', don't expect to dodge everything, got 1 shotted by the CoT behemoth AV once as it only needed the one hit to wipe me. And yesterday, was pounding on some Arachnoids in the gutter, and went to about 25% hp in a few hits, managed to heal it back, but still.

Small thing about powers:

3 Recharge SOs in Kujin Rin is very nice as if you have it in auto fire it will stack over a bit so will always be on, only issue with this is the power activating at inconveinant times, like SJing, needing to heal, etc.
Retsu is a lively power, but I would recommend having the "Blink" option on powers, so you know when its about to crash.

Congrats Z, and good call on your choice of Epic AT

Should be able to make it, providing my sleep isnt borked like it was today.

Blaster, Single ST hold, Vanguard, Geas.

Congrats on the 50! Dont listen to FG about the blaster

Anyway PvP is more balanced than I give it credit to. I just wanted to say that. ^^

In the news today, a 22 year old male was found dead at his computer, apparently he died from laughing so much at a community forum. The medias response is that of old; over the top, and hyperactive, BANZORX ALL EVERYTHINGS!!!

But surely Defiance Zerging would take place instead?

[/ QUOTE ]

Lol, defiance zerging = turkey shooting imo.

No.. make that clay pigeons.

(ps. it'd only work with blasters who are built with defiance in mind. Wouldnt work well with a generic blaster, besides only one AT gets defiance)

[/ QUOTE ]

*powexec_name Fireball* From a Corr, thats going to be a lot of Scourge hits

[ QUOTE ]
You can get a good stalker once at most with Trip Mines They learn fast. (One of the reasons I dropped them from my build)

[/ QUOTE ]

Hmm, depends, back when I first hit started PvPing on my Dev blaster I got a LOT of stalkers repeatedly with Mines, and this was back in February/March. Fun times

Samaj, I'd advise you play against Blindfaith, Mellon Orasi or Meela. Really don't need hide to do well as a Stalker.

[/ QUOTE ]

Where can I find those players? I guess Union, damn that Im on defiant..

[/ QUOTE ]

It wouldn't take long at all to switch and to get a toon to 30 so you could see for yourself.

[/ QUOTE ]

Preferably a squishy one

[/ QUOTE ]

I already have a clone of my Union stalker on Defiant, just need to level them.

Ah the fun times I spent in Sirens as Devi playing off against Gutts, learning about Stalker-Hunting. Good times

Good metabolism FTW! I'm pretty much living off a steady diet of cake, candy, fast-food and chocolate milk - and yet, I'm not overweight. And did I mention I hardly get any exercise? I love my genes. *snuggles genes*

[/ QUOTE ]

Hmmm, my genes are a bit mess up; on the one side have a really slow metabolism so if im out drinking, I can drink for ages then it all hits me at once and the next thing I know it's the next morning
On the other side, I have a really slow metabolism and a fantastic immune system because of it

On the other hand, I have wide shoulders and my best friend's shoulders are much less broad - which one of us should claim to have the more realistic shoulders?

[/ QUOTE ]

Same situation with me and one of my friends I lived with for 4 years. I'm 5'8", he's 6', but I've got much wider shoulders than he does, by several inches.

[ QUOTE ]

even though - yes you know it to be true - I'm more often than not a lone empath... yes.. attacking an empathy defender is very manly *rolls eyes*

Stalkers arent meant to be manly, thats why my stalker is a grrl

In fact, we're the only species on the planet that works this way. Mammals, birds, reptiles, fish - all of the males are naturally more attractive (due to the abundance of females and their need to attract a mate). Humans work backwards.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not true, take a look at some insects and arachnids.

[/ QUOTE ]

Can we compare ourselves to creatures that have only got four limbs please, because anything more than that is just creepy.

[/ QUOTE ]

Your avatar has a tail.

[/ QUOTE ]

Touche

Of course, he doesn't have insect style armour (carapace?)or arachnid style eyes or anything else that creepy

[/ QUOTE ]

Carapace and other exoskeletons allow insects to have a much higher strength then anything of the same size that doesnt.

Certain spiders, jumping ones are the types im thinking of, actually move their eyes, not manipulate the iris and lens to focus, this incombination allows remarkable jumping and precision.

I love insects

Now the human race can avoid natural selection (hi, I'm diabetic and my appendix ruptured earlier in the year, that's twice so far nature has tried to kill me and I've happily avoided it. I've repaid nature by not propagating my genes.)

Bloody Bay is a PvP zone? I thought people only went there for Shivans.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yep, you get sidekicked/lackeyed or malfactored/exemplared to level 25. There are missions and a few other things to do in the zone, and if you think Stalkers are overpowered in Siren's Call, you haven't seen anything yet

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
In fact, no AT can do that on his own vs. a proper stalker in the zones.

[/ QUOTE ]

Regen Scrappers can

[/ QUOTE ]

Not in Bloody Bay or Siren's Call, against certain Stalkers, Regen Scrappers can be taken out in 2 shots if the stalker is fast enough and the Scrapper isnt fast enough on the instant healing. Done this to Regens plenty of times in SC and BB. Warburg and RV, everyone has more survivability due to increased overall stats, combined with more powers to add more suvivability, and this also impedes a Stalker.

Anywho, ways to see Stalkers, seeing as how I know both how to fight and play them.

Blasters: Specific powerset but Targeting Drone from /Devices offers perception bonuses to allow you to see a "Hidden" stalker, if this is combined with Stealth, you wont see anything til they hit you

Scrappers: Again a certain powerset, well two this time, Super Reflexes and Dark Armour both have a perception boosting armour in their sets. Again this will see 1 layer of invis, but not two.

Tanks: Ice Armour and Stone, both again have one armour that aids seeing one invis level.



Any other At that wishes to see Stalkers will need Tactics from the Leadership pool, or a buff from a Empathy or Sonic Defender in the form of Clear Mind and Clarity.

2 perception powers like this will let you see stalkers up to a range of 30 yards (i think, it's whichever is longer, a yard or a foot, whichever it is, it's 30). Any additional perception powers will further aid in seeing a stalker.

I like the nukes in game, makes you feel powerful, if even for only a few seconds.

The Warshade Nuke tho, Quasar can be one of the most deadly in the game. Start in Dwarf Form, run into mob, Dwarf Mire, switch to human form, Sunless Mire, Quasar, true the KB will scatter the mob, but given the double mire damage boost effect, most things are likely to be dead before they hit the ground.

Gratz again Standoff, for some reason I still remember you hitting 50 the first time, despite me not being on the team and infact being in SC PvPing
