Love or hate EVE, what CCP did with that whole thing deserves applause. Takes a lot of balls to get out there and say to your player base, "You're right, we're wrong - we are drifting too far away from the real reason people play this game, and we're going to fix it." And they did. As far as I know, that's an unprecedented thing to do.

I would probably stay if NCsoft changed their mind and didn't shut down the game, for the short term. In the long term, it would depend on what kind of community remained, because if I couldn't find a good RP supergroup I probably wouldn't stick around.

I remember Plant/Psi being regarded as very, very good - maybe it didn't get talked about as much because everyone knows it's so strong.

My main is Plant/Fire/Fire, and I see a lot more Plant/Psi/Ice running around than fellow P/F/F.

But Plant/Psi/Ice is really, really strong - you've got Seeds & Creepers, perma Drain Psyche, and then Sleet and Frozen Armor so you have really massively good control and survivability.

I prefer /Fire/Fire though cause Embrace of Fire, Rain of Fire, and Fire Ball are just too good for me to pass up.

Um.

What?

Oh, and more than anything, I won't miss:

People who think this game is hard enough that performance matters.

1) It's "to whom you are speaking"
2) If you find yourself using that phrase on an internet forum you might need to get up and take a break

Amarr actually though at 84m sp you can fly almost anything >> p.s buff gallente

Ah well, thanks for the response/confirmation!

If anyone else is interested, at the moment on beta dominators have the 22% tohit requirement for their snipes. Also, they are faaaaast!

oh, absolutely, I was just gunning for a blaze -> blast -> blazing bolt attack chain on my plant/fire/fire
thanks for the update, I'll see what they come up with.

1) Rularuu, Nemesis (no way to keep the Colonels from dying last), and Carnies (probably could manage but don't want to)

2) "Best" might be a bit much (can't manage AVs/GMs, etc) but in terms of clearing groups of normal enemies I haven't found anything that does a better job yet

Other considerations include: No good place to slot the dominator proc (I have all 6 in Roots, for the ranged defense bonus). On the other hand, Fiery Assault gives you Consume, and I find myself using it for endurance on a very regular basis since you spend so much time casting rain of fire, roots, and fireball, all of which are pretty thirsty on the endurance. Even with Domination on a 68 second timer, I am popping consume and ageless pretty frequently - plant/??/fire is really thirsty. But you could probably get by with just ageless if you pop it every time it's up - I prefer to use Consume when I can because it casts faster and does (some) damage.

Dark assault actually probably has BETTER AoE than fiery assault, though. This because (from what I hear) Engulfing Darkness is a good power, whereas Combustion is not. Engulfing Darkness casts faster than Combustion, and Night Fall casts faster than Fire Breath. However, once you get fire mastery, most of your AoE is gonna be Fire Ball + Rain of Fire, so I don't know how much of a difference the better AoE in dark assault will mean compared to the awesomeness that is Fiery Embrace (+80% damage for 30sec!!)

DR AEON USED CALM FORUMS

ITS SUPER EFFECTIVE

good changes o7

I think what happens with Nemesis is that you can use Seeds with Domination up and confuse the spawn pretty easily, but then the lieutenants get killed (not much you can do about it due to confusion), and Vengeance the whole spawn. It seems like Vengeance doesn't break the existing confuse effect but it'll prevent new ones from applying? And it boosts their defense so high that I can't kill them before the confuse effect ends, at which point I get splattered by the 2-3 guys left that have 4-5 stacks of Vengeance on them.

Plus if they end up vengeancing the next spawn by accident that just sucks.

Your attempts to deflect the issue to a mysterious secret build do little to distract from the fact that you snapped at a person trying to improve one of the worst builds that has ever been posted on the forums.
