  1. OK...been playing this game for years and my attempts at PVP have mostly been unsatisfying. Anyone have any guides/advice for someone trying PVP "again for the first time".

    When I last played scrappers were very in....any easy build suggesstions? What zones are good in for a non-incarnate PVP. I haven't done much of the 50+ content...

    I hear Freedom is the place to go...any other advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Blueside DP/Kin

    Does anyone have a good build for this...most of the DP/Kin I see make use of the epic shields on villain side. Can blueside get them? Last I recall you needed to do the patron missions to access to them...even on redside...is this still the same?

    Sorry, - this is my first foray into corruptors...any help would be appreciated. I would mostly PVE and enjoy big teams....
  3. What are the benefits of a brute vs a tanker...

    I'm thinking if I get to the soft cap on defense, that means that they will be equal in the survivabilty column...

    ..will be mostly for PVE, groups, tf's that sort of thing.

    Any ideas why tanker or brute is better...putting here and I didn't want to cross post, so I'm thinking I'm going to get a decidedly pro brute opinion, but try to be impartial.

    thanks...
  4. Has this this been fixed to no longer affect pets? I respeced into world of confusion an a lark recently with my ill/rad and was thinking of slotting in there...anyone have any luck with it (right now as I redid I only have 2 slots in World of Confusion and it's quite underwhelming.

    Should I put it in deceive instead...I've got the five slots in deceive to get the 10% recharge to help perma phantom army.
  5. Any feedback...I wanted to softcap for smashing/lethal...I mostly do PVE with a desire to try to take down AV's...

    AV Hunting

    Back fighting AV's after a break...can't seem to find any good AE's with Archvillains...any suggestions for arcs and what do I need to have my settings at for AV's to populate.

    Seems all my old AEs come out as Elite Bosses even when I set the difficulty to have them fight as AV's and not Elite Bosses....
  7. Ok...probably answered before ad nauseum, but I can't find it (my search fu is weak).

    Do the set bonuses assist MM pets...specifically defense bonuses.

    If I slot the steadfast +3 defense (you can slot resist) in the tier 2 demons...does it give increased defense to these pets - any others?

    If I have dark as my secondary, can I slot the recharge intensive pet sets into fluffy and will that then pass on the bonuses to my other pets (such as the bonuses to defense and resist).

    In short I am working on demons and am looking to make them as durable as possible...any pointers?


    Thanks in advance for any help.


    **add - is the 2nd tier slotting messed up...when I fully slot acc/dam, I can't seem to get my damage increase above 60 some percent as it seems to be boosting the resists also...is this bugged or just not calcing it right?
  8. Seems everyone is doing Demons now, I don't see much on the Robots anymore...

    Is Bots/Dark still a good set? Anyone have any builds for a good PVE build? Is AV soloing possible with this set?
  9. I've got a 50 DB/SR scrapper I am about a purple set short of being "completed". I've been farming +8/x2 on the CoT trying to get my purples, but its been a couple months since I've gotten even one. What's the best way to get purple drops? Are other people having problems getting them, it seems like the only thing that I get anymore are the temp powers (groan).

    I've also got a 50 Claws/SR Brute that I am farming same levels and difficulty with, but again, no purples - farming Council with her. Progress is slow here as I am complete, but without the purples.

    Any suggestions?

    Sorry...kind of new to redside...

    what is the demon farm on redside, (blueside is Harvey I think).

    who is the contact?
  11. I just hit 50 and have a Claws/SR brute. I'm looking for a good mission for farming. I got off to a hot streak with purples and since my first 2 I haven't gotten another. I've recently done mostly paper council paper missions.

    Any suggestions for getting lots of purples?
  12. I mostly do PVE...looks like a neat looking combo, with good single target damage.

    Has anyone tried this?
  13. I thought I read that the AOE toggle (evasion?) does, can't seem to find that thread, can someone answer please?
  14. Any suggestions?

    I like to solo, and would eventually like to try to take down a hero or 2...

    ...Dark was suggested to me to help bolster defense from the invincibility, I'm going for a high defense build...
  15. Any suggestions...?

    I am thinking Mu, for the group immobilize, but I see Soul has a cone immobilize also - I like the idea of keeping things together though.


    I mostly do PVE, any suggestions are helpful.

    You could get Moses, Jesus, Buddah, Ghandi, and the Flying Spaghetti Monster to sign your little petition, and it wouldn't do any good. Until you people wise up and STOP SENDING JACK YOUR MONEY, nothing will change.

    Hmm...I dunno about the rest of them, but The_Pope just posted above me...maybe The Pope could sign for Jesus & give us a good word for Moses.

    And that is why we need to do testing, gather data and present arguments in a calm manner.

    I think we need to start a new campaign to remove the unenhanceable portion from our powers. That little gem makes no [censored] sense anymore with the new enhancements.
