Your average group will have a Death or Storm Shaman surrounded by two or three husks. Occasionally a Spirit will float around and a Totem will be lurking in a group.

The groups are tightly packed except in the 'crevice' and it doen't take much time to defeat them, for themost part.
I easily get more than 8 bossess though...I count 6-10 Spirits and 1-3 Totems per run. They do 'con' as LTs for my purposes though.

This seems possible.

Just ran Unai's zombie mission -1 set for 8.
1 Invention (Range) - 50
1 Psionic Threat Report
1 Nevermelting Ice
2 Ruby
1 Bleeding Stone
1 Shield of Joule
1 Stride of Grey

Counted through the tab and had upwards of 300 rewarding mobs in there.
I've also joined various farm teams for PL purposes and my lowbie almost always has to delete a recipe every 2-3 minutes of play.
It does seem as if the virtual teammates are being awarded drops.

They are spawning at 47. I miswrote. My mission is Level 48, -1 level to 47 and getting level 50 Recipe drops. I'm too lazy to log into game again but my setup was netting me level 47 mobs and lots of them.

Not a lot of recipes though, but perhaps this is WAI.

If you want purple prices to go down then you want them to be valueless. In order to make purples valueless, ask the Devs for an NPC run store with set prices for Purples. All purples for sale at 30-40 mil, infinite supply.

The problem isn't their perceived level of scarcity, it's that there is only one way (defeating mobs) of obtaining them. If you could nab them off STF/LRSF completions etc...

OR...you can wait a while and see if the new mission settings cause an influx of purples into the Market.

That might be more realistic.

Maybe.

Colour Neuro's powers on all slots.

Get Master ITF/Khan.

These rules are inane.
What is one of the first things in which the game instructs you?
Inspiration usage.

Would you not use a Break Free against a Chief Mesmerist?
What if you're fighting one of those Carnival of Shadows that drain end? No Catch a Breath?

Of course you use them, because you'd lose and not gain experience or rewards.
Making rules to inhibit victory isn't brave or smart or daring, it's naive.
You're in a fight, use whatever training and resources and smarts you have to win that fight.

Even if you get Jane Doe to agree to your rules, you cannot expect to enforce your behaviour on various other people in the zone. Do you understand that? There is an area where you can duel without inspirations or temporary powers. It's the Arena. Head there and bash each other to your heart's content!

I know I am damned glad that Sabin and others picked my Emp/Psy out of Siren's Call and hauled her *** to the Arena for spike/evasion drills, insp management drills and power usage drills. If they hadn't, I'd still be walking around wondering why I was being attacked in plain view.



This is absurd, not only in your mangling metaphors but also in your analogy. Chess may seem 'fair' to you but you'll get schooled by someone who has been playing for years and has insight into movement patterns.

What I simply don't understand:

If all these people are duelling and all these people enjoy duelling, why did none of them head to the Training Room, IO out and duel against the players that also enjoyed duelling? Honestly, what do you feel you are proving by button-mashing one Regen against another for hours on end? You may as well flip coins, the outcome will be as predictable.

My advice to you:

If you set foot in a zone, be prepared for anything. Carry an inspiration load and accolade/IO as much as is possible given your time allowance.

Learn to team and ask questions.

I'll likely never be remembered as anything more than a 'good' Emp but I'll be damned if I didn't help any team I was on survive more than not. That didn't come to me by just mindlessly mashing buttons. I trained, I teamed and now I (hope) am a valuable addition to a zone or arena team.

Do not limit yourself by placing unnecessary constraints on your PvP playstyle.

Rules are for the Arena. The zones are for raw, unbridled and relentless attack.

What time were you searching? I mostly log on to PvP on Freedom but on the odd time I've logged my Rad/Ice FFoF I've gotten invites right away. Heck, he's 45 right now and I got an invite a Battle Maiden farm.

While logins are down for school, I16, competition et al., teams are still available. Use your server global channels and supergroup coalitions, etc?

As for AE farms dying, not even close. I haven't used Boss farms in months either; far too inefficient. Plenty of workarounds to the 'Need Minion/LT/Boss in custom groups" too. =)

It should probably be noted you'll want to run this on Tenacious at least for the full challenge.

I took my casual gamer friend into it so he could stress test his MA/SR with IOs...we did both wipe on one of the waves, but this was mostly due to him Scrapperlocking on the Challenge Master and all the following ambushes.

After I explained the procedure to him, he got the first ambush well, the second gave him progressively more difficulty and so did the third. He did complete it though; to be fair, it should be noted he used Break Frees, Respites as well. Additionally, we cleared the entire map of the Sonic Engineers just to give ourselves an easier time.

He did have a ton of fun though; he stated repeatedly this mission was far more fun than regular content and that he wished more stuff like this would come out.

Tomorrow we'll hit RWZ and try the challenge. I've gotten ganked pretty good tonight on my Kat/Regen on it (Mesmerists drop Integration, bad stuff happens) though I did survive longer than I had thought while using two 54 Chief Soldier and one 54 Chief Mesmerist.

My play partner has a Mind/Psi permadom at level 25, but he's crazy. He used purples along with other oddball sets, surprisingly no LOTG 7.5 as his is a 'theme' toon so he took Hover/Fly etc.

Now he's bored and is IOing his Elec/Shield Brute heh.

But what's been said is accurate. I have 70%+ recharge on both builds of my Mind/Fire (the PvP side has close to 85-90%) and it still works fine.

Roll Dual Blade/Regen and never move when you fight.

Also, epic post by Oz.

That's up to the individiual, but expecting a con orange target to not be attacked because of individual rules is folly.

If you MUST duel then hit Warburg or Siren's, find some really tall building and go at it...better yet, Arena. You're going to get attacked when you duel. My advice is, be prepared for that and fight back. That might get you some breathing room.

Sadly, Jupiterian law forbids me from embracing your quasi-medieval exercise.

A pox on you.
