Cool . I'm bringing my hacksaw to the zones. No "l337" where there's no fingers!

The attitude and abuse of those doing the PvPing was moronic and wrong. I sympathise with someone and their girlfriend getting broadcast abuse, but really, complaining about actually being PvP'd in a PvP zone isn't really right.

The risk of being in a PvP zone is that of actually being PvP'd. 'Tis a bit silly to go into one and not want to be
PvP'd or be offended by it, poor conduct from idiots not withstanding.

Out of curiousity, exactly why is one not needed now. Surely then, it was just as much not needed before?

Not sure what server you're on. The times I've dropped into Sirens, in Defiant, recently the attitude's generally been better with the exception of 2 or 3 specific moronic individuals.

Grats Wire! You must be chuffed!

Big grats Dem'! If a little late ooops !

Awesome and boooooo! In that order .

Zap', this still going to be an ongoing event?

Can Bridger perhaps include it in the what's on list? Or maybe get it prominently featured somewhere?

Yep. Villain action on the last Saturday of each month, but that's afternoon stuff.

And it includes Heavies, in teams.

Well, the villains will be there .

Forget Parton powers altogether. Why Bother... unless they get 'Fixed' from their current incarnation then I won't touch them with a 20' barge pole.

The pet is the only Black Scorpion patron item I have a problem with, and it's less of a problem than more of a bit of an underwhelming dissapointment. I think the duration/recharge should be amended. I really can't see any unbalance it having much more available.

My other two Patron choices I'm happy with.

The Scorpion Shield gives me a nice, noticeable defense buff.

The Poisonous Ray kicks out a very nice -def and -res debuff. Used with Aim and also when Dominations running I can chain some much nicer damage out of it and it's great vs Bosses, EBs, AVs, and other players .

Yep, I've been tending to my Plant pet with Aid Other and loving care for some time .

I think that what irks me most is the downtime doesn't account for itself at all by the actual performance of the pet. A long recharge paid off by a short duration but positive impact pet I would be happy with, and then be happy to deliberate on when to summon it.

I felt like having a new toy, so I 'specced in Black Scorpions pet Toxic Tarantula for my Dominator.

Now this thing can be summoned for 4 minutes, and has a recharge of around 15 iirc? I think I have it available maybe every 10-12 mins with Hasten running here & there.

It doesn't seem to shine much in those 4 minutes at all .

It's very fragile and mobs easily tear it's legs off one by one and stamp on it . It struck me that, damn, this Patron pet I only have limited use of pet is actually waaaaay WORSE than my own pet I pretty much have unlimited access to.

The very short duration and very long recharge on this seems vastly disporptioniate to the performance the pet gives and I'm not impressed. I know, heeeeey, what am I expecting? An RV Heavy.... ?

Shame because I like the defence shield and the debuffs from Posionous Ray are great. I'll probably drop this and take Fling Thorns or Thorntrops back.

Any further thoughts on the Toxic Tarantula pet? Am I missing something, lol.

I'd suggest not taking fly at all. Traps needs you be ground based.
I'd reccomend CJ/SJ and Acrobatics if you have the luxury of a slot to afford it. It's very good with the FF Generator.
Of course if Fly is for your enjoyment and concept, go for it !

Glad to see you have Poison Trap in there! An awesome AOE hold attack that also causes vomitting. Vomitting animations alone will take a mob out of near enough the whole fight. Plus the slows and fantastic -regen make this a great cornerstone of your /traps build. Very very awesome. Use with Acid Mortar and all the Caltrops, Web grenades and Mines you can muster for truely nefarious villainy!

If you are taking the Leadership pool and stuck for a power to fill a slot anywhere else, make it Vegeance.

If you want some really despicable fun, I suggest TP Foe.

Detonator has a really really long recharge and can be tricky to pull of right. But you just can't beat it for the classic archetypal Mastermind moments of self-destructing your own henchmen . Awesome fun!

Big GRATS MZ. Teamed occasionally with Evil Thistle and Prof' Vulcan.

Very well deserved indeed! Much applause!

The problem with binds and macros with the $$ command is they'll try and execute everything simultaneously, so yes you would have to set up the emote seperately and activate it manually after the power is finished, as power animations tend to overwrite emotes.

Sometimes it works the other way. I have a nice Domination/roar bind set up that works enough times for me to enjoy it.

I'd bind Bile Spray and Burp to two buttons and hit them in sequence and to control the timing.

If you hit Bile Spray off a numpad button, you can always set a control or shift bind off the same key for ease.

/bind numpad9 powexec_name Bile Spray
/bind lshift+numpad9 em Burp

Edit: Also, what I'd really want on a character is the similar power Facemaker has. A lot like Bile Spray but green and posionous. Seemed it had big hold component a lot like /Traps Poison Trap. I was really impressed when she gobbed it all over me...

...that sounds so wrong and dirty

Plants holds/immobs tend to be effected by knockback...

The immobs aren't.

I'll try and be there next time. Although it's a long ways til the end of next month. Hopefully M will poke me when it's time again, in case I forget.

[/ QUOTE ]

*pokes*

We might need to rearrange our Satuday Strikeforce times for the last each month so we can take part?

GRATS !!!

It was great fun being there and the 'Femmes team, as usual was awesome and a huge laugh . Thanks for the invite, and huge GRATS again !

[ QUOTE ]

I think theres a problem when a non control AT can incapacitate something AND kill it before the effect wears off.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think that sums it up exactly.

Thanks to the villains that made an incursion into "Recluse's Victory" this last Saturday, routed the heroes and took the Future for their own !

Those puny heroes roll over easy .

PvP was a bit light as the heroes decided to run like cowards instead of fighting, but it's a step in the right direction at least.

I had a good solid hour of time in RV before crashing and reverifying started in force .

I believe I left 2 teams of villains handing out a stern thrashing to the Freedom Phalanx.

Thanks to Master Z for setting this up, and to the villains that came along. Great fun had and I'll be making a return visit to the future next time around .

I made a Stalker so to enjoy deleting one .

You don't even have anything to replace in raids at the current time, there is no permanent damage at all.

When there are live raids, even after rent reduction, I wonder how many SGs will have 1.5 million more Prestige than they know what to do with to replace a broken turbine generator, and will be happy do so.

But an inkling of where this might happen could help.

I DON'T have a 50 on Defaint AND Union .

[/ QUOTE ]

You need to be only 40 to get to RV.

ps. I recommend against arranging this on monday or sunday night, because those days most often host either test server PVP night or Hami raid on defiant.

Having this on test server also defeats the whole purpose because it excludes all grinders.

[/ QUOTE ]

Good point. Same comment then, but for 40 .

I'll be attending on the live server for many of the reasons already explained.

One more thing about */poison: Don´t bother to take Poison Trap. It´s completely pants.

[/ QUOTE ]

Does it function significantly differently from the */traps version which has a really good -regen buff, lots of slow, and a hold, not to mention the long vomit animations that I've used to take Bosses out of entire fights, and EBs for the majority? Plus it's AOE so it does the same but more so to the whole mob/minions.

Not played */poison so I really don't know but am intrigued.

If he can be dragged away from the laboratory for long enough Evil Thistle will be there, with The Evil Echelon and allies !
