    its not about being right, its about the original statement that the dev's judgement has never been for the best. when it has. many times. market merge is just a prime example.

    should have traded the rad kin and fort for emps

    Grats to the other team though: Sayaki, Taryn, and Bluebella all got the Master badge with help from Otelo, Az, Tam, and I don't know who else.[/QUOTE]

    they had 4 emps.

    asking about a pvp build in any other section is like asking a construction worker about brain surgery.and rocket science. in latin. while you're beating him in the head with a baseball bat.

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...ht=mind%2Ffire
    after a minute of searching

    there are also a few mind/ dom builds and /fire dom builds you can piece together as well as what to build for.

    take this, make a build, post it, fix it, done.

    then don't play a tank. thats literally all they are good for in any pvp short of lolfiteklub.

    grabbing fossilize is good damage and throwing in total focus but other than that, that toon(and by extention tanks) will not being doing damage. if thats what you're looking for, reroll.

    Sure there's all kinds of stuff we'd like to have but they know why they (don't) do stuff and so far their judgement hasn't been so horribly wrong has it?
    yes. yes it has.

    not a personal attack, but i really don't like people who think like this.that the devs are so infallible that whatever they give us will be amazing, which is of course complete ********.

    there have been a great number of things the devs have been wrong about and haven't taken responsibility for. A mass of people like this(and again this isn't a personal attack, just a general statement since i see basically this statement every time i get on the boards) create a zero accountability environment which isn't good for anyone. the only way we've been able to admit their poor judgement and finally get changes that we want, is simply by a small vocal majority of people who consistently pled for their side over a long period of time, and eventually have a voice and reason bigger than the dev's ego. geko's example of the market merge is a good example of this. as well as the recent stamina change, side switching, and (on a more small scale) fire armor. Not to mention all the things they have added with empty promises and haven't touched since.

Secondly find War Witch after a few cocktails. This is also funny. Have fun either way, get some cool prizes
    that might actually be fun.

    getting ********* and messing with/trolling the queen RPer.

    good times.

    2. Powerthrust (Inv/SS Tank) @Vanden
    3. War Wench (Emp/Psi Defender) @Taryn
    4. -Michael (Ill/Storm Controller) @ Sayaki
    5. Kay Parfait (Ice/Emp) @Kay Parfait
    6. Radz (Rad/Rad Corr) @Ninja Navok
    7. Anduil (Fire/Emp Controller) @Anduil
    8. Tetujin (Rad/Rad Defender) @Justaris

    The first attempt went off without problems until Mynx accidentally got aggro. The second attempt the temporal distortions caught one of us off guard. We decided to use the second run to see "what if" because several of us had to get up early. 25 of the 33 deaths were in the last mission.

    As someone else put it, the "M" in MRSF isn't supposed to mean meat grinder.

    Future runs:
    For the foreseeable future I'm not likely to be on much before 8pm Pacific. The next run is set for Wed, Oct 6.
    sounds like you need 3 more emps

    I don't know why. 4 emps is the most OP thing in the game. theres no point in doing anything with 4 emps. and you had 2 tanks. and i know for a fact that 2 of those emps were defebcer emps. what on earth made any mission a problem for that absolutely broken team make up?

    gloom is terrible and shatter does 700 damage and -res so ....
  14. i've also had success with an MM blaster.

    it was pve speced and the regen was a dumb, but what regin isn't now adays.

    well that, and a large majority of the people in this game don't like any sort of competition. assuming a working system.

    it was a success because all the pvpers left on triumph were on at the same time so realistically speaking, thats the best it'll get.

    had nothing to do with casual pvpers joining and learning. since there weren't any.

    No

    A dev in pvp!!!!

    mod08 actually likes pvp. i caught him saying he loves trowing sharks at people.

    I also asked him to bribe posi and/or castle with a food basket for em to fix pvp and he said he had tried that. which if you've seen posi or castle's figure, doesn't bode well.

    not really. they had like a 2v2(i think) kickball session which spilled over into 4v4 RV.

    not much but the most pvp to happen in the last 4 months.
  20. Or just buy and flip lotg procs

    because there is no point in trying to make it happen until there are changes with the base system.


    trying to get more people to pvp in a system which made a large majority of teh original playerbase quit is extremely counter productive and much harder to do.


    and again, its not wanting more pvp everywhere is intrusive. just that **** is not going to happen on triumph. way way too many badgers and casual players.

    it has nothing to do with simple nostalgia. there are actually things broken with the system i.e. 3 year unaddressed bugs. the most recent being KM's tier 9 doing double base damage and ultimately being able to consistently do more damage than a built up AS, along with other powers doing more damage than they should (another example i like to use is flurry being a more damaging attack then most sets hard hitting attacks). procs are broken, the way DR hits things isn't consistent therefore giving certain ATs an unfair advantage i.e. regen. among other things, the thread i posted has more information and macskull's open dev letter is even more in depth than that if you want to look at it.
