Personally I roleplay the "Inspirations" as colour coded pills of dubious nature, aids in not-breaking character and still being able to, like, play the game; "You got any of those blue ones left?" etc.

But yes, hardly makes any difference to in-game rules etc. And yeah, fly does seem to suffer the hardest from both the suppression effect itself (when you attack) but also the -fly powers. (given that there is no -teleport, and that if i recall there is no -superspeed either, just -slow, it does leave fly in a stupidly vulnerable pvp position, when compared.)

That's, um. Not the most constructive of posts, mate.

I think this thread has done all the good it's going to, to be perfectly honest. I reccommend closing it up, and moving on. The issue has been addressed, debating over the minutae of how people said what will only result in people losing out on both sides, quite frankly.

Besides, everyone knows Cat's can't talk, and there's no such thing as vampires! *runs*

My advice Nuke? Don't reply here right away. Ignore the thread for a day, then come back re-read it all. Try to take what you can from it constructively, and then carry on roleplaying. Win people over, or learn who you are never going to get on with.

For me, eh. I'd say respect due for coming in here and opening up the topic in public in the first place. You've got to have been expecting heat. Make the most of your situation. I'm sure the folks here are willing to let bygones be bygones, if you prove their fears are unfounded.

Ok, so i've got a Dark/Thermal up to Lvl 22, regularly group both at my level, with higher lvl VG mates, and not un-often toy with PVP duoing/etc, (regularly run with a merc/traps mastermind, we make an obscenely capable twosome, actually)

I'm Lvl 22, and have neither sheild. *grimace*
I'm starting to admit to myself this probably isn't the best of ideas. anyway, quick rundown of what i do, at the moment, have.

Dark Blast (4 slots)
Gloom (3 slots)
Moonbeam (3 slots)
Tenebrous Tentacles (6 slots, due to loving the power so damn much)

Warmth (6)
Cauterize (3)
Power of the pheonix (2)

Swift (QoL reasons, took over hurdle. Never need sprint, in mission = one less end drain)
Health
Stamina

Combat Jumping
Super Jump
Acrobatics

I'm thinking that i could probably use the sheilds sooner rather than later, but i like most of what i've already got. Now, assuming i can find out where i get the respec trial in the first place, i'm considering Switching out dark-blast for one of them, as i'd have been able to get the other simply by hitting 24 in the first place.


I really like Tenebrous tentacles, I'm probably going to pick up Nightfall to complete that little combo, at some point, and i do like having a snipe, for utility if nothing else.

But before i go much further, i'd really apreciate some thoughts on the above ramblings. Is it likely i'll hurt from missing out Dark Blast? I don't think it has any accuracy penalty, from what i've heard, but it does seem to miss a lot, even though it's better enhanced for damage than gloom already. Should I consider dropping my snipe instead?

Opinions are more than welcome.
(and yes, i will be getting Thaw at some point. :P)
