I was thinking of getting the throw rose petal emote.

So when Im done poisoning things my signature followup can be a "Look at Me!" tossing of the flower petals!

Then I thoght that people would just think I was goofing around and kick me from the team for just using emotes as my prefered method of attack...but then I thought to myself! "Im on Virtue...Ill just say Im Roleplaying"!

Ill try and be serious for a second now. It's hard, but Im gonna give it a go.

So I slotted weaken and envenom with the following 6 slots

For Weaken I have an Achillis (Spelling...to early to care) heal proc, and the defense debuff of the same set for the bonus. I also have 2 other of a different set. The debuff and one that procs a - to recharge and the name is eluding me at the moment. And two normal accuracy enhancers. It's better now. It hits more

Envenom Im using 4 Dark Watchers despair and it procs something, but I dunno really what it procs. Can't recall, but 2 accuracy thingies in it too. So now it hits better.

Honestly...when solo...which is what I was having issues with, I cannot tell you just how much of a saving grace Paralytic Poison is! I live by it. It maybe my favorite power in the set to be honest. I will six slot the heck out of that power and never look back. It is just that important to my survival! It IS now the best power I have and I just cant live without it at all.

The sad part of my story now is that I have been at level 33 for 5 days...

Maintenance...(I assume of course the server issues are purely related to poison) and also just the slow grind Im going through at the moment because the toon is rather fragile

Personally I think something might be in order. Im not really all that picky about things usually when it comes to down time. But when you juggle work, or happen to be in a prime time scheduled down time slot like some of my friends, it's like something should be done.

Essentially now, I have not actually been able to play for 3 because of issues.

I stalled on my Dark/Pain Villain. She can't solo well. Red is quiet when I play, so she is in limbo.

My Widow...whom I love is frozen because I thought she would be allowed to have hero epic pools. But she cant, so she is stuck at 42 because I got her all the way to full hero and don't want to grind her back to rogue.

The rest of mine are 50, and currently I am determined to to level up my Energy/Poison Corr to 50...just so I know what true abuse feels like.

Ummmm...

Hover!

Although I can see why this would bother people...I sort of have this wierd server loyalty thing going on at the moment. It's not that I think it's cool that people would take somone elses name on purpose. I mean, I do considder that griefing, or a screaming cry for attention!

However it's like...There can only be one of anything I create and all other imposters would be simply imposters...unless they also copied my costumes, story and personality or soul I have given to my creation (I play on virtue so dammit...they have souls! Some have more than one at a single time!)

This does not apply to others I know. But it's like superman! He was a robot once...I think...but it was not really superman.

There can be no other "Real" Philotic Knight! You were the first!

Although I am glad you got your name back because it means something to you that is important.

Im just hoping no one grabbed Golden Girl!

Cuz well...

By the nine hells...I....just would not know how that would play out!

Ok.

1) Delete! If she is not using the account then there is no need for her toons.

2) Delete! Your toon if she buys your account, assuming you were paying for it.

3) Delete! Her toons if you buy her account, assuming she was paying for it.

4) Joint Custody Battle! She gets or you get alternating weekends!

5) Use her toons, sully her reputation so other will never play with her again, thus allowing for deletion of her toons by her own accord. (This will make you a "Pancake" but thats love and war)

6) Get her a Wii....Girls apparently love Wii. I don't...and I don't get it, but it may pacify her!

7) Assassination (Not the best option...think of something else)

8) Give her the Flat Screen in the den? She know it will hurt you.

9) Change the password!

My Mind/Psi/Fire Perma Dom makes me happy.

I would say she would be the one thing I have in my toon selection that gets the job done, easily, and quickly. Other than my Grav/FF/Psi controller I feel god-like!

I like it!

Poison is interesting. Paired it with energy for that "Liquid" look! Looks nice too!

Solo it's effective (Needs to hit more though) with energy. I chose energy because poison does not offer nearly the mitigation of others and knockback does offer some mitigation.

I think people might know what I am up too...I just aint so flashy is all.

But then again I guess poison themewise should be subtle. Poison is subtle right?

It's not like I could ask for an illusionary serpent, somewhat translucent, that slithers towards my opponents, after puking it out in their deirection, which then splashes into a bubbling, frothing spray of doom!

No...no...

*Takes an orange pill*

I am not sure whats up with poison to be honest. I know alkaloid is lacking and Im fine with that. I just let people know that I am poison and they know Im not a primary healer. Thats super! Thanks for understanding!

Envenom and Weaken. These are excellent! I think! I know the numbers and checked out the details, and I figured out the issue I have with them, and that problem is accuracy issues. I know if you hit, and I mean actually hit with the power it's supposed to make things easier to hit, and make them have a hard time hitting you. It's excellent on AV's! It's excellent...or I think it is.

The animation is subtle. Since my toon "Black-Ink" colored all of her powers black, I think the main issue is that the animation is subtle. So subtle that people don't actually think Im doing anything, even though Im puking gunk at enemies and debuffing. It could be also how I have it slotted.

Either way, it misses a ton, costs a ton of endurance, and if it were not for my theme, Im not sure what my teamates, or myself think I am doing, except when we get to an AV in which I then debuff the heck out of them, and the tank/scrappers and brutes obliterate the AV with ease...and everyones like Whaoaaaa! Way to go Tank/Scrapper/Brute!

I am all like...*Under my Breath* "Yeah...way to go. Killing something I made into cotton candy for you" *Kicks a can on the side of the road*

Neurotoxic Breath...Yay something that works! It slows em down, makes em slow, not better than anything else mind you! And the cone is great! I like it! I like it a lot! Then the tar patch comes out, and the Time Manipulation starts and everyones like...Awesome slows guys. Wow, Time manipulation rules! *Kicks bigger can on the side of the road*

Elixer of life! Thanks Black-Ink! I needed that! *Is happy again moving back to the smaller can that was being kicked before. Still jilted, and yet more content knowing my blob of goop has saved a fallen friend*

Antidote! It's what it is! It's fine and dandy. It does what it should.

Paralytic Poison...I like this. I do, and I like it so much I think there should be a secondary effect like a snare/slow or something after it wares off. But, that prolly wont happen. But it works, and Ill use it and abuse it. But again it's subtle. The doms and controllers are holding things, or something flashy is happening, and somoone shouts. "Hit the Sapper! Hit the Sapper!"

"Im on it!" Kapow! The sapper is held! The controller than hits the sapper! "Thanks! Mr. Holdy McHolderson! You rule! I hate sappers"

*Grumbles* "Yeah...you rock! Saved us from endurance hell!" *Spits venom at the can and then jump kicks it into space*

Poison Trap...I know Ill like this and other people will like it to once I see it work!...*Jump Kicks a puppy holding baloons, after neurotoxic breathing on it, and then watching it slowly fly away...but slowly! Sooo very slowly*

Venomous Gas! It's green! GREEN!!! And it's not subtle at all! I shall be loved by all! LOVED!

*Uses after burner flight to save puppy holding balloons that was previously kicked, and Alkaloids it...while offering antidote!*

So in general...I like poison! I like it, and it's thematic and it's an AV killer for sure.

But no one has a freaking clue what Im doing...and Im being asked what Im doing and Im explaining but then I realized that I don't really know what Im doing.

I just know that I have energy blast! And then people know that Im doing something because everything is flying around the room!

People really appreciate my incredible knock back! Sometimes people say!

"Whoaaa! Can you...like stop doing that!" or "Wow! You really sent that things flying off our tank!" *Innocent whistle* "Yeah...I know! Thanks for noticing me...I appreciate it...love you guys....just glad to help out!"

Thats my magical Energy/Poison Corr story! I love her! Cuz I'm helping!

It's taking a long time for me as well. I am at 57 percent currently. Hopefully it will be done soon. Id like to see things before I head off to work.

Ok...So now that most of this has been made a touch more clear I see where my issue will be at it's worst.

3 of my mains are all incarnates. Meaning incarnate powers. So greyed out...or essentially unplayable.

To cure my altitis I stuck with six...IOed them etc. So essentially 5 out of my 7...or 6...what have you...will be locked or greyed out for the purposes of enhancements etc.

I have been subbed for a year and a bit...so I will have some extra slots. Thats ok. Thats fine.

While I know that the goal is to gain subs...and essentially the alternative would not be able to play at all if the model remained the same, I wont complain about that.

I think what Ill end up doing is just taking a break for two months when I can resub again. Considdering, from what I have read and been provided here, that the game I was playing and the utilities that I have grown used to, which made the game more enjoyable or playable wont be available to me.

With my 50's gone or greyed out because they are incarnates, and their IO's which I worked hard for, it just seems a more logical option for me, given my circumstance to just halt my sub and return when I can become a more steady player.

I love the game and have attatchments to my toons, so I wont make this an I quit thread, but I just think it might be smarter in the long run to let my account expire, play an alt game for a little and return when both financial and health options are better for me.
