[/ QUOTE ]

You have a hold? if so, "yes" I can make use of you during the Holding Phase.

[ QUOTE ]
Indeed on both accounts.. the Dark Servant was only getting in the way with it's spam heals and i didn't see much in the way of "holds" going on.

[/ QUOTE ]

FYI, it spams it's hold very 16 seconds (it's basically the same as the defender version). Probably not worth the lag unless we're struggling to hold Hami, which on last times performance shouldn't be an issue

[/ QUOTE ]

MMmmm true true... I'll see what other people say D-S wise..

But as it stands, I'll be asking for "none" for now.

We seemed to have enough Controllers and "Blaster-Holds" to make him unneeded.. but I'll look into it.

[ QUOTE ]
The kill time on Hami I thought wasn't to bad to be honest, once we had the Rads in. Once thing I did notice is that a lot of rad defenders who didn't have holds didn't actually come in and use AM until they were asked in to use Lingering Radiation. When the Rad defenders came in to debuff I went from 3-4 lots of AM to 7-8 lots for the remainder of the phase, as did most of the people in my team whose bars I was watching, it would have been helpful to have had that from word go.

Something worth considering next time.

[/ QUOTE ]

Aye.. something i did notice myself..

I'm going thru my notes on that one and been speaking to Lost about it..

I've am considering myself, having AM from the start of it as it DID help alot, and aye if we can keep the hold time we had from the start, I'll be loving the AM from "go".

Then drop LR a lil later on to help us keep it going, and drop his Regen off (at about 46,000-47,000 i found was a nice time as he got a lil iffy then), and once we're confident he's "ours".

I'll drop the note to Lost again, because I don't see a problem with it tbh, if we can get the RADs in for AM during the Holding Phase then get LR when asked, it's all gravy then.

As promised Bro.. I'll be there and doing my thing

Hami don't stand a chance!!!!!!!

Jack frost also has a hold attack I believe, Jack is an accepted norm on the US raids.

[/ QUOTE ]

Unfortunately he only has the melee one (Freezing Touch) and doesn't use it very often, so for high attendance raids like last night's (130 people unhidden?) I don't think it's worth the extra lag (likewise, I wouldn't bother with Dark Servant who might or might not use Petrifying Gaze).

[/ QUOTE ]

Indeed on both accounts.. the Dark Servant was only getting in the way with it's spam heals and i didn't see much in the way of "holds" going on.

Unless I see otherwise, I'm asking for NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Dark Servants OR Jack Frost present during the raid unless I specifically ASK for it.

We did fine with the Controllers/Blasters Holds, then RADs later for the -REGEN.


As stated above.. I'll be checking on demand as top the HP of Hami during the entire Holding Phase. So if Lost wants me to do the Holding Phase again, I again ASK.. NO Dark Servants OR Jack Frost, UNLESS I specifically feel the need or ask for, them. This means "NO!" to both, regardless of what people say the US say.. I don't want them unless I ask for them.

That and I don't want people with HEALS spamming them during the phase.. it ain't needed unless the Hami Tank losses aggro (which he won't), and I don't want Kinetics using anything other than SB or thing's to help with Holding Phase, the Fulcrum Shift does nothing for us and the Heals do not either other than cause lag!

I just want to say::

Thank you to all that attended..

Thank you to Mito Clearing people.. fantastic job!

Thank you to UBER Hami Tank You rock dude.. (literally)

Meh.. to all those that didn't do as they was asked to do, and in part threatened the Raid as a whole.

Thank you to all my Holders and those RADs that came in when I asked to cap off the -REGEN, so we cud keep him held and get his -REGEN stopped about where I wanted it.

Thank you to ... well just thanks to all that made the RAID a success and I look forward to working with them all again on the next RAID

Your welcome to all those that got a Hami-O. It was well deserved.

[ QUOTE ]
we tried to do it just by trollers, but there were quite a few people not listening who just jumped in, didnt really matter though he still dropped and thats all that counts in the end!

[/ QUOTE ]

We did.. but as i was watching ... his HP just wasn't budging past 46,000-47,000 that is when i asked for anything with Holds and the RADs to come in and -REGEN him.

Working with Lost, what I was seeing and notes, we're gonna try to speed up his Killage Time/Hold Time.. it'll take some work. but if my Hold Teams work as they did before and we get enough RADs when needed... Hami will have a hard time staying up. *hopes*

Saying that they should now be free would be cheating not only me who has a 50 of both Epics, but also of every other regular AT, plus a few more the devs let me beta.

One thing that bugs me...

We players PAY hard earned cash to enjoy this game, yet you have to get a lvl 50 just to play maybe one of the most enjoyable contents of the game, that is Kheldians.

Paying for this game should automaticly enable everything open for you to enjoy! Not force you to spend time lvl'ing a unwanted character to lvl 50 so the creaters can have a guarantee to your cash.

The Epic AT's should be available from the beggining, we pay for this game and should get full enjoyment out of it.

[/ QUOTE ]

"we players" is relative.

I'm not sure what you was expecting when you played this game? Maybe::

"www.cheaplanet.com > City of Heroes > Type in /unlockall 1 > to open all ATs"

Or maybe one of the many codes for the Tekken Series to unlock the hidden characters?

Sorry.. they're Epic ATs and you have to EARN them, that is why they are EPIC!

Saying that they should now be free would be cheating not only me who has a 50 of both Epics, but also everyone else who has one.

Otherwise feel free to use the "cheats" that don't exist on an MMO game I'm sure one day you'll get to 50 and EARN a Kheldian like everyone else does.. sometimes "cheating" at a game ain't worth it -- and spoils the fun of the game itself -- as does being given everything without having to work for it.

You pay to play a Heroes/Villians game.. but you also pay to play on they're terms, which is what you agreed to when you started, and they're Terms for the Kheldians isn't unfair at all..

There is only one other option.. either like it.. or don't, if you don't.. you know where the "door" is. If you feel you have what it takes to play the game and EARN the Epic AT like so many of us have done.. welcome to City of Heroes/Villians.

I know a few people have noticed that Cybercel hasn't been updating the list.. and for all known reasons.. we don't know why.

So to save her time and trouble.. in case she has a few RL problems or other priorities I thought I'd use my free time I have standing in Atlas or whereever I do and update it adhoc.

Union Level 50s - 2006

The site is based loosely on her design as there was nothing wrong with it to start with.

So I take no credit for the site and whatnot I'm simply updating it to bring it back up to speed, so people have a "list" again. If she ever carries on updating it, I'll let her resume control of it, and this copy.

Again! I take NO CREDIT for the list.. I'm simply updating it adhoc.

It'll take me a couple of days to get everything back up-to-date, but feel free to keep posting, and I'll update as I can.

[/ QUOTE ]


Addition::

Okies peeps.. the Union level 50s list, hero AND villian side should be fully updated, from the given ones on both threads. If there are any mistakes let me know and I'll correct them.

Union - Levels 50s

hehe

Just doing my x-mas spirit thing for the peeps on Union.

Santa has come to Paragon!

In this case, Super B, was my first 2nd customer to tell me what he wanted for x-mas, this year, with my lil Helper (the Imp) watching people behaved.

Bye bye! See you soon I hope!

Okies hunny

See you when you get back xxx

Didnt think the figures were that high...but i try not to number crunch to much cos it makes my head hurt . Im still toying with the idea of 6 slotted heal self with just 1 passive before 30 for a bit of fun in SC, will have to try it on test first, my final 50 build will have all 3, but the problem ive found with SR is that you either feel like bruce lee or bruce forsyth, i think a heal is going to be important when doing the praotarian arcs (solo)

[/ QUOTE ]

As long as you're up close and personal with Melee/Lethal you won' have much problems.

DX managed to duo tank Recluse and Scorpion on my own, only because they was in Melee. Soon as they started Ranged/AoE attacks, then I had problems.

Same with the Brutes that got cocky with me in RV once.. they did all they could to kill me, but stupid of them was they was in Melee, so it went on for about 2 Eludes worth, before the Stone Melee Brute started using Ranged/Melee attacks.

The self heal MIGHT/SHOULD give you sum extra leyway for survivibility solo vs most AVs, depending on how they are attacking you.

Yes, he did it, Fire Guardian finally dinged level 50, quite unspectacularly, by beating up a Gimp. Oh, FG, how predictable you are .

Congratulations, you. Been fantastic teaming with you! Squids ahoy!

BIG GRATZ

I forgot to check City of Data before submitting my last post. It confirms that Howling Twilight, Lingering Rad and /Cold's Benumb are -500% regen vs critters. Twilight Grasp, /kin's Transfusion and /Poison's Envenom are -50%. EM Pulse is -1000%. I didn't check anything else.

That explains it, then. In fact for a single application it means HT is actually superior to LR & Benumb, because HT is auto-hit, but obviously HT cannot be perma'd (lasts 30secs like LR & Benumb, but base recharge is 180secs unlike the 90secs on LR and 120secs on Benumb) while LR could, just about, with enough +rchg buffs (Hasten, SB, whatever).

Sounds about right to me.
