If this toon is already lvl 50, ignore me, but if you are currently leveling up this toon might I suggest that you try to work Aid Self into your build earlier than level 43, as it is such a useful power, and increases an /SR's survivability by, well...alot

The difference between an /SR having Aid Self and not is quite a large one imo, and I think it's important to have it for as much as possible.

Ofc if this is a respec build just shoot meh in teh face

But, as said, if all I'm gonna get is bullcrap from the likes of you.. whatever.. forget it :: I won't bother myself jsut to get flamed by two overrated PvP/Arena "uber wannabes" - stick to your PvP and keep out of my world (PvE).

[/ QUOTE ] sorry i'll ask permission next time i log into this game not in a PvP zone, does every1 have to pay a toll to be in ur world? and do u have any evidence to support ur claim that we're "two overrated PvP/Arena "uber wannabes"" or that we have ever cclaimed to be?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, sorry I forgot to say there were two malicious insults, both of which were from Raz

Also seeing as you didnt make any attempt to counter-argue any of my points, I take it to mean I win? Do I win a teddy bear? or a cookie? or flames?

two-faced

So....the latter?

The reason we did not say anything before is that you had only done it once, and even though we quietly talked among ourselves how we thought it inappropriate for you to be 'bigging yourself up' we said nothing.


[/ QUOTE ]

Yea.. thanks...

Just what people always wanna hear.. I'm look for a word or two.. anyone wanna help me out here.. I'm currently looking at the phrase "two-faced".. but maybe someone knows a better word to use here..


[/ QUOTE ]

There's a difference between being two-faced and not voicing your opinion, due to the havok it would create, (much like this thread tbh )

And can I help it if I talk to my brother about what I think of things which I do not state on the forums?

The reason we did not say anything before is that you had only done it once, and even though we quietly talked among ourselves how we thought it inappropriate for you to be 'bigging yourself up' we said nothing. However, it seems you are making quite the 'series' of soloing TFs and 'bigging yourself up' in them, so I presume Zak thought it necessary to tell you what he thought. Regardless of what you meant others to percieve, most of us saw this us the case.

Also seeing as you didnt make any attempt to counter-argue any of my points, I take it to mean I win? Do I win a teddy bear? or a cookie? or flames?

[ QUOTE ]
Like random threads, this has lost its actual meaning, so no point in having it up anymore - I simply wasted my time and those that had some interest in what I was planning on doing.


[/ QUOTE ]

Pretty much

[ QUOTE ]
Similarly to you Raz I am a completist and doing things differently to the majority of the people playing this game. I've tried to get as many badges as possible, done the arcs which is very rewarding if at points challenging and boring, now im trying my hand at pvp, even trying to revive the fire/fire tank which is proving painful . I completely understand where your coming from but reading through your post conveys a different persona as have been stated previously by a fair few people and tbh thats the way I see you aswell. Good luck with them though.

[/ QUOTE ]

Especially seeing as Phil has already done most of the 'Überamazing' things you have, and done so in a more difficult manner (with a PB, getting every arc, including the epic ones, harder and more impressive than doing then just the non epic ones, with a Spines/Regen, imho), and he didn't broadcast his progress on Arena, either.

As for you're defense against the argument with PvPers Vs. Raz over Arena, those participating in the said event repeatedly asked for channel silence which you were unwilling to give (myself included, even though I was only soloing with my blaster PvE at the time), before the flames from n00bs decended into our beloved Union AC, (it all went a bit defiant ), and you were mainly trying to create a humourous situation for the benefit of your 'mates', at the expense of those who wished to use the channel for its intended purpose and wish you to stop cluttering it up with your dribble (which was in all fairness a fair comment).

And as for your "Oh, the thread wasn't meant to be a big huge big up to myself" claim, try calling the thread "Need help from others in soloing tfs" rather than "Me against the world" (in which the world will be spawned for a single character, Spines/Regen, no less )

Also your comment on the use of abuse on this thread is kinda hypocritical, considering the most(and only imo) malicious insult on this thread was [ QUOTE ]
sum stuck up PvP Gamer

[/ QUOTE ]
which was written by our beloved 'PvE God'

And btw if this sounded malicious or aggressive that is your own perception, however it is my humble opinion to which I am entitled, and I have attempted to try and keep a logical voice (if sometimes satirical ) throughout.


Thank you all, good night. *Hurls self off bridge*

I realise this doesn't come anywhere close to Rook's Ultimate Stone Tank Build, but we do what we can...

It's Rooks' dammit!


*pauses*





....Carry on....

In my version of HeroBuilder (yes, its updated ) IIRC the recharge on Kuji-In Rin has a recharge such that it cannot be perma without Hasten, even with 6 recharge SOs (not that I would, just for the sake of argument), while /SRs Practised Brawler is very easily perma'd, well at least on my scrapper.

Is this true so what?

if it is, I would chalk one more for team /SR

Flaming, despite being jokey, continuing on people other than me.

Hmm... I think i need to slot my lame insults for Taunt Duration......

*Wonders where he can get lvl 50 Science SOs...*

I hear they do SOs at Tiffany's as well now...

Aid self can be used in combat, especially if given one or two interrupt reductions. For a Def set, it's a very viable option to increase survivability.

[/ QUOTE ]

BOOYAH!


(I hope this post helps clarify matters)

Ok, I've read through your posts and read the constructive criticism, however i have to painfully disagree with all of you (except Ji ), I believe my slots could never have found a better place than 6 slotted range on Fault, I mean come on, States must be sitting on the forums tanking notes on the tank builds of the future, and the recharge on Rock Armour is extremely long when those pesky blappers detoggle you (which incidentally I'm hearing is becoming much moer likely in i7), especially the fire/? ones, so I think its earnt its 6 recharges, and Hover is such an end-heavy power, its gotta be at least 6 times that of fly...so i put an end redux in there. Commenting on other slotting such as the end reduxes in Stone Fist, Stone/Stone is such an end heavy powerset i figure i should only ever have Hover and the legendary Brimstone Armour to keep me safe (and what a pair of extremely Über powers to have by one's side btw), and slot my attacks for 6 end reduction.

After hearing me comment on my build, you can all pay me for the right to use it, just send me a PM

And ofc you've taken a tag along Rooks for teh ride

I appreciate the effort, but it would have been funnier (ok, I'm being generous...funny) if you had stuck in some powers outside of the powersets and slotted for impossible enhancers, like say Fear in Whirlwind or something.

I don't want to blow my own trumpet, but:
Learn from the Troll Master

So, for all those of you wanting to know my kick [censored] build after seeing me pwn in either PvE or PvP, I have created a build that is not too dissimilar to my current one, and am even considering respecing into it at a later date, and any subsequent posts commenting on how much i rock at creating kick [censored] builds would be greatly appreciated.

Energy has advantages in that it's high damage, has a lot of stuns and is energy. It's barmy to say Stone is completely useless in PvP.

All Blasters have toggle droppers, but only */En has the toggle-drop + stun effect which is why it's so nasty. Non-Energy might drop toggles but they don't stun, allowing you to re-toggle whereas without a BF or equivalent you can't respond Vs Energy, because you're stunned.

[/ QUOTE ]
OFC this make much difference nowadays, as most decent Blappers are either ice/? or ele/?, and thus have a hold of their own. The stun in /NRG is only really effective nowadays on squishies with no disorient protection (i.e. acrobatics but not Aid Self)
