i also dislike speeding things, which is one of the reasons i also dislike trials is cause they feel too rushed
i enjoy mass killing baddies with friends but not focusing on completing a mish within like 2 minutes, i do occasionally up the difficulty for some challenge and i do also enjoy running small team task forces with friends for the challenge as well
if your ever around on victory server feel free to look me up -
finally got avoids the green stuff and hence the master badge last night, took us like 25-30 attempts at avoids the green stuff to get it
for some odd reason we have 0 issues getting loves a challenge, but avoids the green stuff was just freaking painful lol -

Keyes is also much better with a minimum team size, especially if you're going for badges. Less people equals less chance of someone screwing up and getting caught in the green beam and/or dying.
also have to agree with the less lag -
are you gonna be doing this strictly heroside or going rogue/vigilante for access to the other side? some defeat badges are much easier to get redside ssuch as arachno and toxic tarantulas

i have glimpse of the abyss slotted in terrify on my mind dom and im pretty satisfied since he needs the control

Quote:one problem though with this on mm and troller is the untouchable effect does not happen automatically and just last night i was killed while using rise of the pheonix on my mm, i literally clicked the power and before i even stood halfway up a stupid vickie warworks 1 shot me back to dead againOriginally Posted by Pesky
I'll note, as the player of a Robots/Fire MM and a Fire/Fire Controller, Rise of the Phoenix also makes the target invulnerable for 60 seconds -- IN ADDITION to knockback+daze on enemies.
I love that power, it's so great. -
im fairly sure the debuff duration is about 5 or 6 seconds
its not too hard to keep 2-3 of the debuff stacked, but because the debuff values are so small and are resistable, its just not worth it
iirc, the debuff values are:
-dmg = -5%
-def = -5%
-tohit = -5%
-regen = -15%
-resist = -2.5%
slow = -5%
-special = -5%
if you throw any of these at an AV a large majority of them will be resisted into nothing, the few exceptions being -special (there is no resistance for it) and -dmg/-resist (resisted by dmg resist) -
it sounds sort of like a tweaked MA set with the combo system that DB uses
i honestly dont like the combo system DB uses, its ok, but i dont like hitting my powers in a specific order for maximum effectiveness, i prefer it to be a little more random and depend on the situation
i do like the look that it would have more AoE than MA since that set is suffering AoE dmg output -
i pretty much only choose reactive for interface because the debuffs on the other stuff is negligible vs strong targets (such as GMs and AVs due to debuff resists) and is not super useful vs weaker targets (like normal mobs of minion to boss)
if the debuffs from the other interfaces were unresistable, then i would reconsider my options but until then i am strictly going with reactive -
on victory we got loves a challenge tonight, it took us 2 attempts to get that one
we prolly tried about 8+ attempts for avoids the green stuff but been having awful luck with it, theres always someone not paying attention or just plain unlucky timing by getting the time freeze exact same time as the beam -
i was wondering the same thing myself why they dont use actual powers that they have normally
i know a few of the support mobs got some extra powers to balance them, but at least it was mostly support pets (healing aoe with the nemesis support for example)
this change just didnt seem right to me as storm elementals already have their own attacks and i was very confused at first why they were given elec blast -
Quote:MP led a few attempts at loves a challenge last night and it was actually a LOT easier to get than the green stuff badgeOriginally Posted by Chad Gulzow-Man
Basically the same, but I think I've got 6 or 7 failed attempts at Green Stuff.
From what I understand, though, Loves a Challenge is actually easier to get once you've got Green Stuff under your belt... just team with the same people who gained the experience getting Green Stuff with you, and make sure you've got plenty of heals on hand to counteract Disintegration.
we only failed it last night because someone got hit by an aoe right after the last tick of disintegration -
Quote:this is exactly why i refuse to use facebook (the privacy issues and whatnot)Originally Posted by Nomme
Here's my issue with this though. I did just create a throwaway account. My email and first name were the only things valid - and it was a throwaway email address from my own domain. I didn't let it search any of my other accounts for contacts or people I might know, I didn't input ANY info other than what is required at signup - name, email, password, and birthdate I believe.
Upon creation of the account - it recommended to me people in two other states I've lived in - most of whom I have not spoken to in any way in over 5 years, recommended my actual High School as a follow or whatever. Now, I haven't used this computer for chatting with any of the people it recommended that were in the state my high school was in, none of those people should have had the email address I signed up using. How did it know to link me to these people even as far as recommendations go? THAT is my issue with FB - even putting in minimal and throwaway info I feel it had to somehow violate my privacy if it somehow knew to link me to those people.
That is simply too intrusive for my comfort level online - given that I have a stalker ex-husband that I've moved half-a-country away from and he doesn't currently know what part of the country to find me in - believe me, my privacy online is extremely important when my real name or info about who I am friends with is concerned. So, got my emote - TYVM and now the account is set for perma-delete in 14 days. At least until the next time I have to create a throwaway FB. Next time I have to do this I'll use _no_ real info and a hotmail acct or something, but sheesh, throwaway emails are one reason I have a domain.
i wont ever make a facebook account for any reason whatsoever -
yeah i don't like that it requires a facebook account, i refuse to use facebook so i guess ill just wait till its in the store and i can use my monthly point stipend to pay for it

Quote:the rules of the contest and whatnot were in the link DR posted, so that part is doneOriginally Posted by Equation
My guess is, they have to have the legalities of a contest down and stated first. To host a contest before having the rules published somewhere may cause NCSoft some tricky problems.
They gotta cover their collective butts, I'm sure it'll be up in the next few hours.
But I also agree that Beastyle is playing with ponies on Ava and Zwi's desk...
on the rules page it says that the contest starts 9 am CST july 21 (not sure what time that is for eastern) but it sounds like it should have been started by now -
i personally hate looking for pads to start a tf small team or solo
it almost wont matter though cause when freedom hits i plan on getting a few free accounts for buff/debuff bots which can also be used as pads -
ive been playing on victory for about 5 years now and not really had any trouble forming anything
i do with there were some alternate methods to getting the incarnate stuff because i despise the lag in the trials and how it screws you over if you dc because of said lag -

the GR enhances are the preorder ones that you got if you preordered GR from gamestop when they had that deal

1. yes, i believe with
2. yes
3. yes, it is not gonna be i21
4. i have not heard much on that
5. idk lol -
Quote:lower tiers of the reward system do not have buying rights only selling rights, actually they cant even trade with anyone until tier 2 and they cant even sell on the market until tier 4Originally Posted by Arilou
They'd also increase demand.
Unless you're proposing giving them selling-rights but not buying-rights...
i actually did not see anything on the slides in that thread about buying on the market in any tier so until i see dev comment im gonna assume that buying on the market is a VIP only thing -
Quote:those respecs do stack btw, i usually claim all of them on my toons so they have like 4 respecs just sitting around when i want to use themOriginally Posted by Feycat
Here's my question: what about rewards we've earned but not claimed?
I've got about 15 unclaimed vet respecs on each of my characters. I don't claim them because (unless I'm wrong) they don't stack, I just use them as I need to tweak my builds.
Does this mean I'm going to lose access to all the available but unclaimed vet respecs? Because that's going to be very obnoxious.
you shouldnt lose anything though, but my above point will prolly make things easier to just claim everything lol
the only respecs that do not stack are freespecs given out with issues for major power changes -
hoarfrost is not really worth it, hibernate is a better power to use than that
the other powers you are taking are good though -
all of this definitely sounds a LOT better than the current vet system
im guessing as a 5 year vet i should have around 15-20 of the rewards points when this is released -
killing marauder is not too bad without the nades just tedious, and usually victory is determined by how well you can dmg him during his unstop
if you have a lot of psi dmg in forms of pets and/or players then you can still do decent dmg while he is 100% resist to all dmg except for psi
