  1. the only thing that i know of in the game that can kill the decoys is hamidon and mitos
  2. the way i dmg farmed was i get rikti monkeys in monster island (i used no more than 2 because i was a mm lol) and let them burn their end, then i would go into rest and just let them beat on me, and they would rarely kill me unless a stray mob or wandering mob would join in

    ive seen at least 2 poeple on victory with a tier 4 (wont say any names here), but im sure there are prolly more

    i think before i16, the grounding ray working on reichsman, but it was fixed

    there are 3 different versions of reichsman in the game: the invincible one, the one at the end of kahn, and the one at the end of cuda

    the temp powers to remove their untouchable phases only work on their respective tf/sf versions
  5. one of the fun stalker combos ive used is elec melee/energy aura/mu mastery

    i basically just sap the mobs to death, although without IOs he can be a little squishy

    i seen a few poeple with it, but thats because its bugged and they got 2 notices in 1 week

    i dont think you will see the mass of poeple get any tier 4s till next week when we get a 4th notice

    Lgtf

    war rider is basically just a heavy suit with leadership toggles

    famine is a heavy suit with the chain lightning and the electric bubble which does lots of -rech and fear and end drain

    pestilence is a heavy suit with poison debuffs which can hit in cones

    death is a heavy suit with dark armor powers such as oppressive gloom and cloak of fear


    in the hami encounter, it is much weaker than the normal hami, but the core can still kill you pretty fast, the best strategy is to work outside in: pylons and rikti, yellows, blues, greens, core

    for the hami encounter you will need melee to get the yellows, ranged to get the blues, holds for the greens (this part is critical, cause if you lack holds then they will be pretty much impossible to kill), the core is pretty easy especially if you drain its end or hold it

    the last mish is really easy, basically just killing rikti and some AVs
  8. oh this game is definitly still alive and kicking

    i say its definitly worth coming back, from what i know virtue is about even with freedom in terms of activity, but all the servers have been more active lately

    since the start of the weekly strike targets, tfs have been going on near constantly

    AE didnt ruin anything (although a lot would say that the players ruined AE)

    i definitly think the game is worth coming back to, theres a lot thats gone on since AE came out in the first place
  9. i think hes just a standard AV which is at lvl 54, there is nothing really special about him except that hes part of the upper level of maltas council of directors
  10. i watch CN all the time, but i really dislike symbionic titan, young justice, ben10, and extremely hateful towards star wars clone wars (its terribly CGI, and the storyline just does not match what i know of the star wars storyline around that time)

    so i pretty much hate the entire friday lineup, overall though CN and AS dont have that bad of shows
  11. running kill most tfs prolly are even higher rates, from what ive noticed a "kill most" ITF takes me around 1-1.5 hours to run, and i average around 6-12 shards a run (i havent been keeping track of total kills)

    so if i do a 1 hour ITF i could make around 6-12 shards depending on the RNG that day which would prolly mean an average of around 9 shards an hour

    solo im getting maybe 1-2 shards an hour depending on how long the mish is and what my difficulty setting is at

    has anyone suggested to make shards similar to vanguard merits? in the fact that you can get 2 vanguard merits from an LT and 3 from a boss or higher (vanguard merits obviously have a higher drop rate, but the current shard drop rate combined with the multidrop on tougher opponents might help for everyone)
  12. interesting concept, i dont think poeple will rush to the RMTers for 100 mil inf, even the average person can make around 30+ mil a day selling on the market (one of my RL friends who knows almost nothing about this game just sells everything on the market and already has a respectable amount of money)

    i do see what your suggesting though possible good for the game economy because it will move money around, and allow poeple who have inf in game, but lack the ability to pay monthly (credit cards/pay pal wont work, or hard time finding time cards) will have another route to be able to stay subscribed

    from my experience, the dimensional grounding ray does not "refresh" its charges if you use an older one on a kahn tf, so if you only have 1 use left and get to the mish to get the temp, then i would use it before finishing the mish to get a fresh temp, because otherwise it would not give you a new one

    on another note the dimensional grounding ray for kahn tf will NOT work on the reichsman in the cuda sf (as i remember castle explaining it they had to use 3 different versions of reichsman: the invincible version, the kahn version, and the cuda version)
  14. the usual culprit of the aggro grabbing on trollers is the aoe (of any kind, particularly the immob since its fast charging)

    best plan is to usually try to wait until the tank or brute has aggro then let loose with your mass mezzes and you will less likely get overrun
  15. i have an earth/fire/fire dom thats perma without hasten, but hes also using a lot of purps and such

    if you could use mids i would post the build to at least get an idea of what i did

    i think they had the right idea giving it to every player on team, but 10 charges seems excessive if it only needs to be applied once by 1 person
  17. im pretty content with the sg that i inherited from a friend over 4 years ago lol

    i dont think i would have problems with the auto demotion either because i have it set to 45 days, and im usually on the red start toon several times a week

    having the option to rename it (or turning off the auto demotion, but thats for different thread lol), would be alright by me

    i would prolly treat it like the global name tokens, which are once unless they decide to hand them out or something
  18. my main toon a ninja/dark mm, skipped tar patch, fearsome stare, and darkest night

    for nostalgia sake i left his primary build alone with minimal IOing, but have been working on a 2nd build which is more...practical lol, as of now i usually only use him for badging, and then i let him rest when hes done his badging to play my other uber toons

    i doubt it a lot, unless you had it all set to lvl 54, then they *might* dent her a little, but boss ranked stuff will pale in comparison to AV, even most EBs cant out dmg an AV regen
  20. i think this is basically the same case as the power of black scorpion that the mm/defender gets on cuda sf

    that power only takes ONE application to prevent him from using the untouchable power at 50% hp, but i always see people spamming it anyway

    from looking at it in different perspective, neither the kahn tf or cuda sf, give ANY indication about the specifics of the temp power that you get, and cuda is even worse because it gives each AT a different temp power, thus making it even more confusing when trying to explain how these temps work

    Soloing the STF!

    it might be possible to duo the STF if you had a perma mind dom with you

    perma mind dom with single target confuse can perma confuse AVs through the purple triangles, which is how poeple solo the LRSF

    me and a friend were thinking of duoing the STF because my friend uses a perma mind dom and i use an ill/cold/ice troller, the only problem with that is both of our toons are full villain, and i wouldnt blame my friend for not changing off villain because the frenzy power for villains is awesome for doms, insta filling the domination bar is extremely helpful to get back into the fight with perma dom if you die

    Talk as in people bouncing off the virtual walls in anticipation for that...
    exactly why i doubt it would lol, i usually read things in game as being fairly straightforward and it just says lvl shift i applied, so i assume only +1 shift

    from what it sounds like it only shifts you up one level, but idk honestly

    i think if it shifted you 2 lvls then it would state it in the description

For a very long time, he has been presented as an unmatchable power that we, the players, must always stay below - and that might be the worst offence of all.

    And, of course, there's the association of Statesman the character with Statesman the developer, who is oft-reviled around here. That can't help either. Plus, we keep having more and more Marcus Coles shoved in our faces as great powers, and always as great powers we must "team up" against - as if Marcus Cole is some inviolate pinnacle that can never be matched no matter what we do.

    The game would honestly be much better if Statesman and Recluse were just to kill one another, and the player characters forced into the limelight more because their respective factions now have no one else to turn to.
    i agree with a lot of this lol, i honestly dislike statesman and think we need to have some alternate dimensions where recluse came out on top and there was no marcus cole or marcus cole got killed, like opposite of what happened in praetoria

    recluse i think is awesome, but im also a villain by heart lol

    Partner

    i figure ill prolly have the badge in another week or so, i havent been doing the tfs so much on my main because hes still full villain atm so has been limited to LRSF and cuda in the past 2 weeks

    but since LGTF is the target starting tomorrow morning, ill be able to easily make a lot of headway on the badges (im still about 6 runs away from the 10 assist badge, but thats prolly also partly due to wanting to get notices on approx a dozen toons at a time lol, as of now i have about 6 lvl shifted toons, and around 12 toons with boosts and most all of them have 1-2 notices already to get them a rare or 2nd rare when they get enough shards)

    i usually try to get these badges as soon as possible too, but not entirely for competitive sake, but because i just really like collecting badges, and with almost no badges for my main left to earn outside of vets, i get bored really fast if there arent a lot of badges
