    That last post was quite funny.

    Garent, when you are OAS you are indeed Immobilized for 10 seconds, with a "Phase" status indicated by the game engine. Pretty much the only thing you can do is retoggle yourself. You may be able to buff your teammates (Haven't been in a situation where all three teammates would be defeated at the same time yet) but unsure of that. Others can fire attacks at you but they will read "Unaffected".

    I still will AE. Do I want all boss farms? No. That's just ... I mean... I can't even explain how that doesn't make sense in a mission.



    [/ QUOTE ]

    I understand this but right now I'm PLing my /EA Brute farming 52 Bosses in my friend's custom mission, good times. At the same time, I use the tickets for Bronze Rolls and sell the proceeds for millions of infamy. I transfer this infamy to my other alts across servers and equip them with stuff I need.

    I don't recommend new players or return players hop into boss farms though. They should explore the new stuff and new contacts and run them the long way.
    As for myself, I've done most of the canon stuff.

    I level for two reasons:

    I need a new toon for PvP (go go Rad/Therm) or I want to try a new powerset (like my Energy Aura Brute). I'll be damned if I run through Snakes or Hollows another time. I'm rolling my new alt, heading to AE and PLing to 35. Then it's ITFs/whatever and then STFs/whatever.

    As for the Market, yeah it is easy to make a ton of inf. I've personally cleared the billion on both sides. I find it dull though. I'd rather herd a dozen level 52 bosses into a corner, smash them and build up Fury than buy, craft, sell. I flipped a low risk, low return purple set for about two weeks a month ago. Cleared about 100 million on it and got bored. I made about as much selling Pool As I got in Architect off Bronze Rolls.

    To be honest, as much as I like getting pools of inf off the Markets, if they put Purples, Respecs, Costume Recipes off AE or Merit tables I'd be even happier because I could use my abundant Tickets or Merits for those as well, instead of having to Market for them.

    TLDR:

    I farm to 22-35 so I can get Stamina/basic IOs/powers.
    I use the Market to get rich so my alts don't have to play the game.
    I'll gladly run any new content the Devs give us and write Cotnent through AE.
    Don't take away my ability to pile tons of 52 Bosses, whether in AE or normal missions.

  3. EnnVee, your point is a good one and we have had reps at the matches. Buck was around for the rematch the other night and NinjaVampyre or Buck are generally around for the Sunday events.

    I think...in a 'casual-friendly' league like this, the less asshattery the better all around. People need to have fun with it then decide if they want to keep at it afterwards.
  4. Alright, and I agree on that Buck.

    I just want to PvP. I would only PvP if I could level that way in this game.

    The only matches I care about are my own but I get how it looks bad if someone is on a roster and in the sub pool as well.
  5. Don't.

    If you want to be challenged, run an ITF with Enhancements off, Players debuffed and other settings. On Invincible.

    *YOU* might be able to roll stuff over. When I team with my dUmbies we do 30 minute or 20 minute ITFs (mostly because I'm a slow loader), but sometimes I do ITFs that are one hour, an hour and a half. Players have vastly different playstyles, slottings, ideas of where and how to attack.

    You can coordinate a Hamidon raid with newbies if you want challenge.
    You can run a Hydra trial with people that can't follow instructions if you want challenge.
    You can run a Master RSF run with new players if you want challlenge.

    Challenge in this game is in how you coordinate and plan and execute your powers and team. Coordinated teams will roll over stuff, uncoordinated teams will not.
  6. Sounds good Buck.
    You can also add me to the sub pool. I'm ingame fairly often so if anyone needs a Defender or Scrapper (my current only 50s on Pinnacle, though I'll have a Rad/Therm soonish...and a Tanker) global me @Neuronia.

    I don't see anyone using Tier2s or Tier3s. You can figure out if Enrages past tier 1 are being used by taking PowerNameValue+Damagebonuses+Inspiration bonuses in the combat log. A bit tricky/tedious but if it really becomes an issue... Also, greens are pretty eay to spot. I think a Tier one does +251 Health on a squsihy, a Tier2 is +260 or +270 etc...anyways. (Yeah, I've spent too much time in Arena matches).


    Also, the new Arena settings make camping a little harder. Harder than it used to be anyway, where you could just target and follow a dead character and farm them immediately.
    Ah, the good old days.

    Yeah, dUmb on Infinity has similar speed runs. They use 4 Cold Defenders, a Kin and a few Blasters I think. GJ you guys
  8. Hehe.

    Team KGB didn't show for our resked but we're hoping to get it done on Sunday (if people show etc...).

    Nice fights last night.

    Be wary. Heals from the Arachnos Repairmen on the towers are now autohit due to bugged Aid Other, even when AoEs are hittin'em.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, I heard this as well in my PvP team channel, we'll call this off until this gets fixed.
    Thanks for the tip Cobalt.

    And some complete rules? I saw one team that got wiped because the other team was spawn camping them ... that just doesn't seem right.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Name the teams or tell JK about it? Otherwise this is just drama.

    There wasn't any of that going on in our match. We got no complaints from Chibi, Moldy or Weather either...

    Also, respawns occur on a 15 second rolling timer, followed by a 10 second 'Unaffected' period where you can retoggle as well, which should alleviate some of those concerns...

  12. @Neuronia - Ill/Emp Controller
    @Talon Arsenal - Blaster
    @Pazahar - Scrapper or Ill/Rad
    @AceMACE - fire/rad ice/kin ill/storm
    @Meowtch - rad/rad fire/kin cold/cold emp/psi 8 other 50s
    @Dark Friar - Fire/Fire Blaster

    (If Meowtch has a Stone Tanker that would be awesome...otherwise a Cold/Cold or Rad/Rad would be great)

    Thoughts on I-15

    My Plant/Psi now has to use more than two powers from Psi Assault so that's taking some getting used to.

    Villain SF:

    Loads of fun. Nice cutscenes, very cool end fight as well with the various temp powers and nuking the Patrons for their essences. Was mostly a pug but we had a nice mix of powersets and though we didn't speed it, it didn't seem long.

    Heroside:

    Atlas Park mission done in a few minutes. Train Mission done in a minute. Train Mission done in a minute. Cave mission done in a minute. Delivery to Tina. Final mission that takes...longer than a minute.

    Granted we finished well below our challenge setting of 2:00, but our decent group (1 Scrap, 1 Tank, 1 Kin, my Forcefielder, a Blaster etc...) took foreeeeeeeeeeeever to whittle down Reichsmann's hit points. Then we'd beat up an AV for 15 seconds and take foreeeeeeeeeeeeever to whittle down Reichsmann's hit points.

    Got the badge on my badge toons, going to run it with some friends and forget about it.
  14. Realizing this is the Independence Day weekend so not pushing this too much. If we can get eight, great. If we can't, there's always next week.

    Interested/Sign-ups:

    @Neuronia - Ill/Emp Controller
    @Talon Arsenal - Blaster
    @Pazahar - Scrapper or Ill/Rad

    Still need a Stone Tanker, a Kin/Cold/Rad and some damage dealers...

    Start time is 9:30 p.m. Eastern Friday evening, no defeats and no temp powers.

    Hope to see you there, otherwise see you next time!
  15. @Deathgripson of KGB notified us that they'll resked by Wednesday at the latest. We'll let know in the PvP League channel when the match happens.
  16. I don't mind scribbling down scores for the next time, assuming they stay up on the Arena terminals long enough.
  17. Because...she knows what goes on with the game engine when it happens. No, she is not a Dev but she is intimately aware of changes on the servers.
  18. I PMd Synapse as well.
    Sardan, please let know if you hear anything and I'll do the same.
  19. Someone get on Arcanaville or Synapse, they'll know what's going on.
  20. Yep, nothing.
    No inspirations, no piddly influence, no salvage...and no patch note.

    Word from above on this please?

    Facegrape over Chibbles & Bits
    Hugs over TLD ?
    Turtles over LOLRPVP?
    KGB and 3-Way weren't there from what we saw...total kills are on the TitanNetwork board.
  22. Wow Ninja you are a STAR!

    For teams with byes, does that count as a loss/win/tie in the standings?

    If you still have an open slot, I have a DM/WP scrapper that could join. Will be in IP at designated time if the slot is available. Toon name Bodil (global @Pazahar)

    Or an Ill/rad troller...(Edie the Silent)....
