I'll be bringing Luna B - 45 Mind/FF/Psi troller. 1 sleep, 2 holds, 1 fear and 2 confuse plus bubbles and a repel. will be able to throw some damage in afterwords as well.

[/ QUOTE ]

Though the sleep, fear, confuse and bubbles arent needed

[/ QUOTE ]

iirc the bubbles (certain one) helps with Mezz vs the mitos a lil

[/ QUOTE ]

Dispersion bubble, yes, but those will be called for and I'm sure there are plenty of forcefielders around

Normally when the "clear all mitos" plan was used, there would be 2 bubblers providing disp bubble over the turtle while clearing mitos.

aye, DM can be pretty powerful in PvP IF you know how to use it. Personally got a DM/SR scrap, and the -acc combined with SR's +def can really floor the hit chance of someone.

As said, in PvP shadow maul CAN be dangerous to use. Its great damage, nice cone to it, but the animation time is SO long that if you either miss or dont kill, you become an easy target yourself.

Also you probably wont need siphon life with dark regen, but if you CAN fit it in, hell why not

I'd say the holding team, the healing blanket will be covered by kinetics.

well it all depends if its a "proper" EB, or a downgraded AV. Proper EBs most of the times aint a problem for a brute, unless they are ballistas . A downgraded AV (which barracuda most likely will be) can still be a major pain in the butt.

Oh, dependin on what kind of brute you are, aurora borealis and infernal can be a pain to solo as well at the later lvls

Btw, the reason why frosty and atta are hard is cause of: you are quite low lvl (frosty usually at lvl 10 or so), most likely arent properly enhanced, you can be a 'pure' support type, frosty and atta are a wheee bit overpowered for their lvl (curse frosty and havin both fire imps and jack frost, I want that at lvl 10! ) etc etc. Still can solo em both with relative ease, just takes some thinking

OK quick qustion got a Ice blaster with the 2 ice hold, should a be a member of the hold team or a general team.

[/ QUOTE ]

anyone with a hold is able to join the hold team. Doesnt mean that in the final phase you arent allowed to blast, but prioritize the holds

Wich tells enough on how any n00b can hit lvl 50...

[/ QUOTE ]

yeah, even you hit 50

[/ QUOTE ]
Nice to see stage keeping up with his insults

EDIT: My blaster has one epic hold with power boost and will have vanguard by then if this is where we sign up

[/ QUOTE ]

the show mate... the SHOW!

plus you gotta admit, that was one way too easy to miss

Reckoned I'd shed some light into this, from a hami flyin veteran

[ QUOTE ]
I couldn't check the exact distance but I 'think' it may be possible to recall friend to Coward's Hill.

[/ QUOTE ]

This indeed is very much possible Someone that manages to reach Coward's Hill can TP anyone from the hive gate. Prob is, some people are confused to what Coward's Hill actually is, so make sure you get TPed to the right spot

[ QUOTE ]
- Flying too high. The swarms pretty much cover the flight ceiling and there's no need to fly that high.

[/ QUOTE ]

The swarms only cover the hills, the skies above hami got no swarms. The swarms are only outlined along the outskirts of the hills. Best bet to fly is fly at med height till you reach the clearing where hami is, then fly up. If everything is alright you should already see the PA team hovering there. This is a pretty good altitude to maintain as most PA members will fly just outside of hami's aggro range.

[ QUOTE ]
- Rubber banding on Group Fly. Even though we all set to follow on Dutch, group fly doesn't seem to maintain equal distance at all times, meaning some fell behind and out of the group fly range. Slow and steady is the way forward.

[/ QUOTE ]

This indeed is an annoying thing, best thing to do is fly a bit forward, just till you reach the range of group fly. Not sure bout the exact range of GF, but say if its 50 ft, each time you'll fly paces of 49 ft. Then stop a bit to allow everybody to catch up, then fly a bit again, etc etc. Course having a flyer with recall friend can be handy to quickly tp those back in the air who still manage to fall behind.

Hope it is any help

It really is a bit of trial-and-error to see what date works best, and it seems for most of the community the best date is sunday or monday, thats why normally raids are held on one of those days. The fact that last ones have been on monday should be just some coincidence.

I heard there were plans to have one more often, maybe one of those will be on a more suitable date?

I'll see if i can give a lil acte de presence

right, pretty sure i wont be able to make it if its the 29th, sorry guys

My Scrapapocalypse sense just alerted me that somebody nuked the Roleplayer meet.


[/ QUOTE ]

I think you're gettin old n slow chives, your Scrapapocalypse sense is lagging

you guys DO know there are more powers in the stone set apart from granite?

I can most of the times happily go 1 on 1 with an AV/EB with just rock armor, stone skin, rooted and maybe minerals running, so wouldnt say /stone "sucks". The ones who suck are the ones who run around in perma-GA thinking they are a tank

Anyway, gotta agree with the general consensus that elec/stone prolly isnt the best combo especially for the purpose you stated. Think you might be bit better off with /DA or /inv as they got nice resistance off the bat, but dont cripple your recharge. And for fighting AV/EBs, you want single target moves and prolly not the AoE heavy elec set.

If you really want /stone, I'd go with fire, SS or maybe energy primary. If you really want elec/ primary, I'd go with /inv or /DA secondary. Doesnt mean I hate my stone/stone he does remarkably well against EB/AVs WITHOUT granite (still got it as a "oh [censored]!" button though ).

it ends 28 july, and im not too sure if im renewing it
the 2nd takes quite a significant bit longer than the 3rd, would say round 4-5 hours iirc

I dont mind, but there is a possibility I wont have a sub anymore the next weekend

cya mate, been fun

still, what portal do you mean? the wormhole or the mole point?

quasar ftw!

[ QUOTE ]

Meeting point for both events is just through the portal inside Nerva Archipelago

[/ QUOTE ]

You mean Cascage Archipelago I hope
BTW you got any times for when we're starting?

[/ QUOTE ]

and is it the wormhole or mole point portal

[ QUOTE ]
Will we (who have the power) be running Tactics to improve the ToHit as our holds are lacking accuracy with the 3/3 hold/rec slotting. Last time there was a bit of confusion about that and the time before no-one was using it as the word was "no toggles" which led to high percentage of misses with the holds.

[/ QUOTE ]

well afaik, hami will be stacked with rad debuffs, so even without tactics you should have no trouble hitting (especially as most singletarget troller holds got an acc bonus anyway), though you should ask babel bout this.

ill see if i'm on at that time, if i'm on, feel free to count on the services of Ice Duke (32 ice/ice tank)

just send a tell to my global if you're formin a team

not 100% sure if i can make it in time (pretty sure though ) but I'll bring stage for SSTF #2

also think that with just 3 attack you'll have a very hard time keeping an attack chain up at higher lvls where you are spammed with -recharge.. even I struggle sometimes with keeping an attack chain up (especially in hasten's downtime or when I get hit by -recharge) with stone fists, the 2 mallets, seismic smash and tremor. Would really advice to check out if you can fit in some more attacks.
