I successfully trolled GG and had a post made in my honor.
....to this day, I regret I fell for the bait. Being an anti-troll troll still makes you a troll.
Oh, also: back in olden Hami Raid times, I would totally AFK for the free Hami-O. I sorry. -

Doctor Scotts (Time/Fire Defender): Two man MoITF, MoKhan, and MoSTF. My friend Faero and I were simply unstoppable. Also, leading a Repeat Offender coalition string of iTrials on him.
Bladeshine (Electric/Titan Tank): Autoclicking Defensive Sweep against Mot and grabbing a drink.
Umbral Mistress (Dark/Dark Controller): Soloing the entire DA story at +3/8 on a squishie and never dying. I felt... well, super. -
My technology Time/Fire Defender, a stalwart anti-theist and scientist, will go out shaking his fist at the sky.
As he always has and will. -
My entire coalition shuddered at the title of this thread.

Quote:Pollution: to drive humans to extinction would take a completely insane amount of pollution. Billions dead? Sure. All of us? Nope.Originally Posted by starphoenix
Until Man colonizes the galaxy, we are never completely safe from total annihilation. The solar system is not enough since some technology might be developed that stops nuclear fusion within the Sun.
Right at this moment, humanity can be destroyed by pollution, cataclysmic changes to the environment, nuclear weapons, science experiments, biological weapons, next stage of evolution, aliens, asteroids, out of control technology like nanotechnology, and I probably am missing a few possibilities. Of course, some are more likely than others while others will take longer to be a concern.
A hundred years ago and we were too ignorant about the possibility of our own destruction. The more advanced we become, the more ways we learn that can destroy humanity.
Cataclysmic Shifts: Humans evolved during a major period of glaciation. The survival of that isn't so impressive relative to our survival of the post-glaciation period. Massive environmental changes can wipe out billions, yes. Extinction? Not even close.
Nuclear: Highly unlikely for every square inch of habitable land to be irradiated. Could you get 99% of humanity? Yep. But 1% is plenty for genetic diversity. Extinction? Hell no. And, given the fact every major industrialized country has "fecal matter hitting the fan" evacuation of certain populations... humanity will survive a nuclear holocaust relatively intact; at least, biologically.
Science Experiment: Confused by this. What do you mean? Like generating a micro-black hole or something?
Biological Weapons: see nukes.
Next Evolution: *shrug* We'd become them. Kinda like the Singularity; you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between us and them for a very long time.
Aliens: If relativity holds true, we shouldn't expect aliens any time soon.
Asteroids: This is about the only thing capable of causing extinction; and that's a maybe. See nukes. It would have to be a massive extinction level impact, too.
Nanotech: couldn't get everyone. Luddites would hide out around the world or governments would evac to their nuke shelters and cover their tracks with EMP or something equally science fiction. Billions dead, no extinction. -

But only one of them needs to succeed and the more advanced we become, the easier it is to create a doomsday scenario.
Actually, the more advanced we become the harder it is to kill everyone. In fact, barring an extinction level event magnitudes greater than KT, we are fairly safe from total annihilation. -
Didn't the Mayans also perform bloodletting?
And I'm done with them. -
Ah, Singularity. Hurry up!

Bottom line, DM/Shield or perhaps a melee-softcapped Titan/Elec scrapper. I believe, against a single target, Titan can outperform DM by a good little stretch. Now, if you plan on using fuel...
DM/Shield for the lulz. -

1. Teleport is the fastest travel power in the game.
2. The Teleportation pool takes 4 BOTZ sets, and provides 4 possible spots for a 20% Slow Resistance.
3. Teleport is useful for getting past high perception mobs like Rikti Drones.
4. The hover is necessary in case you just have a little bit of lag- It can mean the difference between falling hundreds of feet and having an extra second to que your next teleport.
5. Teleport is a godsend for Stone Armor players.
Lies. All of these.
Teleport needs redone. -

Dark/Shield because there isn't a combination that comes close to have the ratio of damage output to survivability and because I am extremely biased but ignore the second part because the first part is true.

My Dark/Stone/Energy tank was nigh un-killable except against large packs of Romans (silly mez protect!). To this day, I've never seen a better "tank" when it came to raw mitigation. And, damage was pretty high, too

Also: Werner. I take all your AV soloing hints with a grain of long, arduous salt. :P

Sorry, the smell of someone spouting nonsense has drawn my ire. With the new changes to Energy Aura, it is fairly ridiculous to try and use any other defensive build. +Recharge aura, +endurance and defense click, and a ginormous self heal all make EA shine. TW/EA is my prime AV/Pylon soloer, and she pumps out 258DPS using a REALLY not-ST centric chain (I like my AoE's).
Just so we are clear, too, EA has 52% DDR, if I recall off the top of my head correctly. -

No. His first name is Agent.

Maybe someone can help me here...
What was the point of the first hour of the movie? :3
It was entertaining, and the Battle for Manhattan was simply perfect in all regards (come on, when Hawkeye shoots to his blind side and just murders an entire skiff? Or when Hulk side-jabs Thor?). Really, the second half of the movie was excellent.
But that first half... and Scarlett can't act her way out of a paper bag.

With 5 targets Invincibility will bump my En/Neg up to 46.1. Anything less than that I should not be worried, but I will see what I can do without hurting my attacks. thanks for the in put.
As for the Incarnates I will be getting Agility Core Paragon (End, Recharge, and Defense) for my alpha. I was thinking of getting Degenerative Core Flawless Interface for the -Max HP proc (75%) and minor toxic DoT proc (25%). I think it will help the team if I am using AoE's to decrease the HP of the targets to help them kill quicker. I want to get the Storm Elemental Radial Support for the O2 Boost that heals and end drain protection. As for my Destiny I will be getting Ageless Core Epiphany for the + End, +Recharge and Recovery. Are these good choices or not?
As far as Interface goes, hit the opposite tree. You'll be attacking so much that the 25% chance for -Max HP will be firing nonstop, really. You'll want more DoT. -

This is also another reason why i dont like it. The only time i find it'ld be good is on a TF like an ITF where you are constantly fighting for the hour, otherwise it does just scream of a farming/PL tool.
The ITF isn't a power leveling tool? Huh. -

I have watched this thread become as entertaining as the debate over which would win in a battle between a Star Destroyer and the starship Enterprise... in my universe where "entertaining" and "stupid" are often synonymous.
