Was there a particular reason you stopped playing? Or just bored?

Quote:I'm getting the impression from some posters in this, and other threads, that they feel unlocking the Incarnate system, which is supposed to be the beginning of 'end-game' content designed to challenge players, should be balanced around the lowest possible standards. There seems to be a segment of players that think that they should be able to complete any possible content simply by randomly mashing buttons on their keyboard. I'm pretty confident that's not what the dev's objectives are for the Incarnate system.Originally Posted by Nalrok_AthZim
If, after heeding advice from the forums, refusing to team, refusing to use insps, refusing to do anything other than try to kill him alone, I do not know what the problem you're having is and it is not a problem that can be solved by anyone other than yourself.
A much less 'lrn2play' statement, but AGAIN I say, what other conclusion can YOU arrive at? You can say 'bad mission', but other people have no trouble. You can say 'you're some purpled out elitist', but I'll post my build and prove you wrong. You can say 'he should be soloable', but he's part of an arc that is meant to test you. Get help, get insps, or suck it up.
"Inspirations? What're those?"
"Temporary powers? No way! Too much trouble to get!"
"Ask for help from another player? Bah. I'm too antisocial for that.."
Seriously folks.. If you can't manage to pull this off with all the myriad options available to assist you, I doubt you'll be enjoying much of the current and future end-game content at all. -
Quote:Yet players still manage to pull off MoRSF runs without nukes or shivans, or any temp powers at all, by using tactics and skill...Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
This is the reason people pull and all the usual tactics, in a nut shell.
AVs aren't tactical challenges, for the most part. They don't require clever thinking, or puzzle methods.
Their just a big sack of HP, regen and mez resistance with stupidly high accuracy and damage that cheat. The LRSF final mission made me unbelievably frustrated and angry when, even after getting your favourite pet, Shivans, and team stacking vengeance on them, we STILL died. Why? Guess what? The Phalanx cheat! Their all set at level 54, and theres 8 of them! How on earth is that a fair, tactical fight for eight villains limited to level 50? Why else do you think people prefer to Nuke them from orbit? Because, out of the whole SF, that one mission is a load of stinking doos. -
Quote:Exactly.. OP tried the same thing in the Defender forum, and didn't get any responses either. There's a reason for that.Originally Posted by DSorrow
It's just a principle. If OP doesn't lift a finger towards making their build or show that they have done that, why should we?

Stamina didn't make the low level endurance issues worse. Poor decision-making made the low level endurance issues worse.

Quote:NO. Elite Bosses are supposed to be the 'big bad'. Either on their own or as scaled down AV's. Making them easier because a player might have trouble with them, completely removes the point of them in the first place.Originally Posted by EnigmaBlack
That's what I meant, allow the EBs to be bosses for squisher toons
Players have a multitude of options for dealing with difficult situations. There are dozens of temp powers, there are inspirations.. Any AT can handle EB's with the right combination of available tools. And if all else fails, there is always the ability to ask another player for help. There is no reason at all to downgrade EB's to bosses. -
Quote:NO, NO, NO! Every TF team must have a tank, a healer, a kin, and 5 DPS. Otherwise they are doomed to fail..Originally Posted by bAss_ackwards
If Scrappers can do these two new TFs with Temporary Powers disabled, just about anybody can!

You don't "need" debuffs on your team for Apex & Tin Mage TF.
You don't "need" heals on your team for Apex & Tin Mage TF.
You don't "need" buffs on your team for Apex & Tin Mage TF.
You don't "need" ranged on your team for Apex & Tin Mage TF.
Melee ATs aren't at a disadvantage when fighting Battle Maiden. -
Quote:It's already happening. Prices have increased by a hundred million or more on several of the more desirable recipes over the last few days. It is easy to see the supply shortage. As each day goes by, there is an increasing number of recipes or enhancements showing zero for sale, and dozens of outstanding bids.Originally Posted by TFury
But the availability of PvP IO's and recipies on the market are due to farmers. So I say let the farming continue. It this bug does not get resolved soon, we will see a horrible spike in prices for PvP IO's if it hasn't already happened.

Quote:I guess if you consider an average 30% or so reduction in the +damage from Fury a 'buff', then yeah, Brutes got buffed alright...Originally Posted by je_saist
buff.
Major buff.
That's pretty much all you need to know. Brute's got buffed. -
Quote:Rather than focus on just boosting recovery, you should also be adding endurance reduction to your powers, especially attacks. I'd also suggest posting your build in the appropriate forum and asking for advice there.Originally Posted by mrjoshuaaa
Just started really looking into my IO sets to make my 50's a little more "usefull." Ran across a few things that I'm not really sure of. Mainly, I have a few toons with ummm, end problems. With 6 slots in Stamina, wasn't really sure what the best thing to put in there to get the best end recovery. I've heard mixed information. Can someone just give me a quick run down of what will get me the top recovery. Thanks.

Quote:Sorry to hear you're having trouble with your Dark/Invuln build. Perhaps you should post a thread asking for assistance with it in the Brute forum.Originally Posted by Blue_Centurion
I am extremely happy with my Dark/Invul Brute build. Please stop telling me to change it.
Again, please do not post any more comments on my Dark/Invul brute build. They are unnecessary, unneeded, and unwanted. The more you post advice on an item I am not asking for help on the more obvious it is that you are argumentative and trolling for agro.
Again, to clarify. I am extremely happy with my Dark/Invul Brute build. Please stop telling me to change it. If I ever mention that I am interested in another Brute, or archtype, or power set, please do not take that as a request for my Dark/Invul Brute build. If i ask why something costs so much on the market, please do not take this as a request for help on my Dark/Invul Brute build. If I ask why there are so many NPCs standing around the Black market, please do not take this as a request for assistance with my Dark/Invul Brute build. if i ask if anyone can solo a real AV, please do not take this as a request for assistance with my Dark/Invulnerabilty Brute build.
And PS, this is not a request for assistance with my Dark/Invul brute build. -
I heard they were nerfing regen and/or accuracy with this patch...

Quote:I believe LRSF has been done solo with a Dominator.Originally Posted by Blue_Centurion
And no, i do not think anybody is gonna solo the LRSF. C'mon. really? But if you do, again, tip of the hat, wag of the finger. It was just my extreme example of how tough we all know this things can be.
Yep..

Quote:I can fault them when you've got over a dozen players in zone, both hero and villain, all trying to work together so everyone can get their badges, all willing to stick around and PvP once the badging is out of the way, yet the griefers won't even let them do that. They're just there to intentionally disrupt the attempt to defeat the AV's. Pulling other spawns, buffing the AV's, etc...Originally Posted by kidengineer
Keep in mind too, that a lot of PVPers are pretty starved for action on this server and will use any activity in PVP zones as an opportunity to get some PVP action. I don't agree with this, but I can't fault them either.

I always love the "I don't want to bother putting any effort into this and want someone else to do the work for me" build threads.. And of course this one includes the seemingly mandatory "budget doesn't matter" statement.

Quote:That's assuming that they did not, in fact, ask the OP to refrain from using it. He didn't indicate either way..Originally Posted by Lord_Nightblade
They could've at least asked politely that you refrain from using it, possibly with an explanation for why. Kicking someone for breaking a rule they didn't know existed is a pretty douchy thing to do.

The game only makes one defense check, using the highest defense % that applies to the incoming attack. Attacks are generally tagged with both positional and damage type, although some psi attacks do not have a positional tag, only damage type. These are usually the ones that are clones of the Mind Control powers.
So, if you have 40% ranged defense, and 20% smashing/lethal defense, and get shot at by a Council minion, your ranged defense % will be checked. If that minion tries to brawl you, it will check against your S/L defense instead. -

Oh wait.. It's been 4 minutes, and there's another ITF starting up on Virtue. Yep, servers are dead. Impossible to find teams to get these Incarnate components. Might as well quit the game now. DOOM!

Quote:Well, let's see.. I just logged on to check the market on a couple characters, and within the span of 5 minutes I saw two ITF's starting up in global channels, one on Virtue and one on Protector, along with a Khan TF.Originally Posted by ABC123
It's not don't want to but can't. Brings up the whole consolidate the servers discussion again.
Tell me again how there is nothing going on and it's impossible to find teams, please.. -

Quote:I don't see anything insulting in any of the previous replies to your original post. All I see are people genuinely trying to help you. I'm not sure where you're getting the insulting thing from.. Teaming on Virtue is about as easy as it gets. It really only takes some minimal effort on your part, and using the available tools that are out there, such as the team search and global chat channels.Originally Posted by Angelofvalor
First of all I do not appreciate your assumption towards me, I obviously said I have been attempting to make teams, in the past 3 or 4 nights I have been only in small teams these where teams I have made and been in, I should not have to explain myself to you, but of course I am going to use the forum and ask what is going on if I am not getting teams, and I was not aware of the new content I really need to get going rogue soon. And level 34 isnt that low, of course I see lower level teams, but still do not find as many as I use to.
Anyways I thank those of you who actually answered my question instead of insutling me, and to the one who insulted me good riddence.
Having a hard time finding a good sg to, havent seen many spamming.
And the only reason I was asking if I should leave the game, is because the most important aspect is teaming in a mmorpg for me, and if I do not have that id much rather spend my money on single player games.
If you go out looking for negativity, you're bound to find it... -
Hey guys, I was wondering if I could get some help with my build too. I'm having the same endurance issues as Ultimo and I can't seem to figure out why. I've got Stamina slotted with as much End Mod as possible, and I have all my attacks slotted for max end reduction too. I can't even make it through a single fight with a -3 minion without running out. I have to rest like every 30 seconds, even when I'm not in combat. Endurance in this game is broken!!11!
