while i agree with this as well, my bs/shield has been doing just fine for my purposes. I have a fire/kin on the other account but I think the bs/shield is more fun.

not as a controller

4 controller emps, 4 def emps


vs



4 corr pains, 4 mm pains







duh

more signups plz

This league is shaping up to be sweet!

i can't imagine trying to actually level an FF toon without PLing.

I think you should do mind/ta


Trick Arrow is one of the most underrated sets in the game. it has such a great array of debuffs, it also gives you a second single target hold for boss stacking and whatnot.

This was by no means my first 50. it is probably closer to my 30th. and when i started this thread she was in her 30s

plant/ta
plant/ff
earth/ff
earth/ta
mind/ta
mind/ff

everyone should sign up!

WB!

on my heavily IOed (but only one purp set) bs/shield, SC will generally leave only a sliver of health on LTs. that is making sure to get good use of AAO though. just for reference. SC and fireball pretty much wipe out everything close enough to get hit by it. there are always a few stragglers though.

go for it folks!

this toon is now 50 and have dropped a boatload of influ into the build and man is it fun. not as fast as a fire/kin or elec/shield for farming but noticably safer. i'm loving it.

people are too lazy to run one AE mission I suppose.

I know elec/shield and fire/shield might be more obvious choices but with the build I have in mind (haven't actually planned it out yet) I could focus on regen, recov and recharge with my IOs rather than defense because that lacking defense would be made up for by parry. I can't imagine much in the way of minions and lts being standing after SC, WS, and FB aoes... am I wrong? or in soft capping a fire/shield, could I also get comperable recharge and recovery?

fire/elec is really what you are looking for.

i'm thinking of rolling this to run either battle maiden or council farm with bosses.

my thoughts:

parry + shields = survivability

shield charge, spinny sword aoe thingy, and fireball for minions and LTs then some hack, disembowel and headsplitter to deal with bosses.

your thoughts?

pvp was dead in this game even when the ladder was at its strongest.

being mad at the pvpec is really serious stuff it seems.

ditzyblonde so angry!

sweet! people are posting in our thread again!

no way we could scrounge up enough people with the will/active accounts to play though.

so, ladder eh?

ahhh vent.........................................
