Thanks Cuppa. Very nice. I always try to be polite about posts... though I can tend to get on a soapbox and blather on about one thing or another.

Take care all,

PS: A suggestion that characters be allowed one Hami-O per power has been flying around. I suspect if the Dev's (no offence intended) do have balance at all in mind that this may be a fair solution. I mean they work so hard to remove powerleveling which realy only hurts those who let it bruise their opinion or the purity of the game experience... clearly letting folks continue to have powers slotted so very far above and beyond the average or casual gamer is hardly "Heroic" or fair for that matter. It's insane in game boosts to powers and way beyond what theyre SO enhanced compeditors can ever hope to do unless they too all farm that single giant blob of an AV/Monster over and over.. .and honestly who but dedicated, probably young or unemplyed or part time employed (no offence intended) powergamers realy have the time to do that? I have 2 hami-O's on my 50... (and one of them he cant even use so it's just sitting there till I have time to trade it but it's one of those insanely specific ones that probably only and EMP can make use of... I know my force field defender cant use a heal/end buff/recharge or whatever it is ) but I work for a living so it shouldnt be at all surprizing that I have 2 and havent had time to farm Hami-o's for more or sell the one I can't use... If we had an auction house like other MMOG games I could have... Hint Cuppa/States... anybody, hint.

Very good guide.

3rd Tray! 3rd Tray! Woohooo! Huzzah! Booyah!
At last I get to see something I helped ask for many many months ago come to fruitrition. Woooot!

Thank you Dev's.

Give them time. This is a good decicion but it's not just a roll back to what it was before... It's sort of that plus stuff from I3 combined in a new way, and even some totaly new stuff like recoding to have Lt level HP and Damage output combined with the Name costume and powers of bosses from every single mission. It's gotta be done slowly and carefully or you'll wind up with more misions with black holes, or mobs under stairs and what not.

Give them time folks. In the mean time if your having trouble at particular hours finding teams, you know once your past level 10 you can even sk someone way lower to assist you in a mision. They ramp up to near your level just have fewer slots and lesser enhancements... But may have powers that can still help. I know, I know some of them may be total noobs but I think you will find them more willing to listen to advice from you level 40 well established hero then your new level 6 experimental alt. Granted having TP friend helps here or you'll have to sk and walk the street with them but still... If your having trouble finding someone your level.... Even checking to see if theyre's some higher level hero out there willing to help with that one mission via request channel might not be a bad idea.

Good luck,

Demon Hunter

Welcome to Paragon

But it is also kinda sad... It means theyre getting close to tempting away all my UK and european friends... why not just add extra servers to the server list?... Or announce servers already popular with the other side of the world like Victory?

Oh well... I guess not. But i'll miss them. My character is here on Victory and though a switch is possible (and probably a one time character transfer...) if one buys the Euro version... please keep in mind I also have Americans and fellow Canadains who are SG buddies and on my friends list too... It's like your making us choose between friends.

(School Comparison) Do we send the kids to fancy overseas boarding school or keep them here in public? They can't intermingle anymore. Global community hurtin' here... (Not a lot I know... but a little.)

It seems to me that to get a major endurance drain you'd likely have to take Energy Manipulation as your secondary and make sure to take that power in it that basicaly doubles the effectiveness of your attacks secondary effects. Then not only would you wind up with the grand endurance drain if you had it running often enough but you have one power at the start that causes 100% knockback if it hits and non kb resistant target attck plus all that lines nice disorient, build-up and endurance conserving power stuff. Perhaps someone posting here should try an Elec/Energy build. Myself I'm running a pair of alts to experiment with elec's endurance drain and or 'staying power'. One is an Elec/Energy the other is a defender with Elec/Rad... though i should likely have made that kinetics, but cant test everything ... I still have to run my main FF/Dark... (completely different play style there too.)

Anyway just food for thought, that perhaps Elec manipulation isn't the best secondary for an elec blaster. I mean that AOE filed is nice for the first 6 levels but after that the agro's gonna murder you. I have already found the Elec/Rad is able to shoot and drain while standing toe to toe with many foes, but since he's only 12, we'll see how he does after the outcasts. After all he cant even mount good debuffs in the rad stuff till after level 22, and certainly not uber debuffs till 27 and fellow SG members can pass SO's to your alt from your main.

Good luck eperimenting all.

The thread is an interesting read. Handy for making macros.

Thanks for starting it.

Can't believe I didn't see this before... Will get to work on something ASAP
