Anything/Storm is gonna tear pretty much anything up.


I personally like Thugs/Storm, them being mostly ranged is a great help, while you also have a nice punching bag to soak up aggro.


I have also heard good things about Necro and Ninja, and Bots is always a crowd favorite. Mercs is alright, but they don't have anything that really stands them out. I have yet to try them with storm, so don't take my word on it.

Merry Xmas to all!


Sorry, I needed to say that. I kinda felt left out :3.

It's an alright power, it should crit from hide, but thats just me. With Surveillance, VG, and Shatter Armour, add in Placate and a crit Shatter, its worth the long animations and set up time for a massive wallop. For bosses anyway.


I did see a widow with it the other day.
I died a little inside.

*whistle* Man that looks good.


Demon summoning reminds me vaguely of the Necromancers pets in Guild Wars.


The new water and textures look downright amazing.

I for one love the Vet rewards.

I don't know what I would do without the Vet attacks or the respecs, considering I respec almost every month or so with better build. I'm at 60 months right now, but the Reveal one sounds kinda cool.

They might not be perfect, but its better than a kick in the butt.

Also its fun to chain Sands of Mu, Flurry, and Shadow Maul for lulz.

I wouldn't mind them fixing it, seeing how Widows can be NW/Forts and still looks good.


And with those smexy buttcapes...


But it's not a big deal for me. I just rolled another Solider.

Energize is also a end discount power. With it and Power Sink, you can probably drop Stamina.

I think the Zombies also accept Defense Debuffs. Their puke might debuff defense, but I'm not sure.

What does Power Boost do for Thermal? Does it boost the shields or something? Heals I know, which would be nice.

I have a zombie/thermal build I am having a riot with in PvE. I love the Thermal set, the buffs and debuffs are nice, not to mention the heals. I am fast approaching 50, and I was hoping that it would be passable in PvP with some IO installments. Nothing like clear the zone good, but good enough to hold my own in RV. Most often on a team, but also solo if need be. I bet Thugs/Therm would be better, but I personally like flaming zombies better.

Couple questions:

1) I'm guessing I should build for +max health and KB IOs. And some +recharge if I can correct?

2)How is team tp? I hate running out of BG mode, and I am hoping that team tp will solve that. Or Group Fly?

3)What is the best patron for a MM? My guess would be Black Scorpion, on account of the webnades.


Thanks guys

I think the only thing that Banes need are a animation tweaking, and the maces blasts really need to be looked at. I think the blasts are a cool concept, but they are really lackluster.

I love Blinding Powder.

It's fun to mess with a mob before ripping their kidney out. And as Alef said, it helps making you that much more unhittable. And you could always use it as a IO mule.



I would personally just get range and AoE IO bonuses first, relying on Parry to provide the melee defense. With it 3 slotted with defense IOs, you should be soft capped with just 1 application of it.

Then later if I wanted to drop Parry, then shoot for melee defense bonuses.

Sorry,this might be a bit off topic, but I don't want to start a new thread for it, and it does involved Broadsword.

Head Splitter for BS Stalkers accepts Melee Damage IO sets. On my Scrapper it was PBAoE. Is this working as intended, or did they change it around for Scrappers too?

Haha, I'd die of laughter if Stalkers got SS before Scrappers.



They got Broadsword before Brutes, so that is not so far fetched .

I don't mind them. I spend a good 70% of my time at the BM in Cap, hardly ever seen MM pets there anyway. The only MM pets that are annoying are the robots, the rest are quiet. Especially the ninjas.



It's a lot less common and annoying than the PSW spamming Dom.

I'd pick a well played Bane over a well played Stalker any day.


FM for Stalkers would be my guess next proliferation.

Dang. Just thought I'd ask.
