dunno if this is the right place for this post.not that i care really.
for all of those who know me,and have played alongside me this past 3 yrs,i have something to say.farewell.
like so many other ppl,i'm leaving cox.why,u ask(u may not have,but i'm gonna tell ya anyways).
1st of all,i love this game.this is NOT me slagging it off,or anything like that.i just believe this game has run it's course,for me.after 3yrs,i'm now bored.for me,this game has slowly stagnated,into a debacle of what it once was.
when i 1st played,it was fantastic,to get yr 1st toon to 50.that took 5 months.loved all of it.
now i can get a toon to 50,in 1 week.that's without farming.
with all the past updates,this game has become so easy now.
so much stuff is pointless,or broken(my mate can get 29 reward merits in 30 mins,thats broken).
the sets coming out,seem to make some other sets useless.
and,with the mish generator thing next,it becomes even easier.why fight cot or malta ever again?just fight freaks till 50.ffs.
for me,i'm going.this game won't last for too long.not with dcu and champions coming soon.
i just wanna say,a big big THANKYOU,to all my friends who have made this game so fun.and if anyone has teamed with any of the following in the past,a big thanks too.
STATIC FORCE,DARK NURSE,DYNAMO GIRL,JULIA CEASAR,ORPHEUS DOOMCALLER,STATIC FEEDBACK,STATIC FIREKIN,
vills:BLACKHEATH,STATIC DEVASTATION,PRAXUS WIDOW,PRAXUS DU'VAAL,RONIN OF RUIN,PRAXUS STABBYDEATH.
to all who are still playing,a big thanks.ive had so many fun times,and chats,here in cox.ive made new friends,and thats what counts in the end.
to the games makers?sort it out.
thanks everyone for being good teammates.
STATIC FORCE,signing off forever.
ps:no,i wont be back.lol. -
so,what yr suggesting,is like rttc for wp,but gives prot vs S/L,instead of a regen?i kinda like it.
how about these suggestions?(bear with me,i am a noob).
how about,instead of conserve energy,which is not really needed,we have a power,like dark armour's pbaoe attack(forget the name),but gives a small heal instead of damage?could also be taunt too.maybe too much like rttc?
i'd like the set to lose the stealth.keep the def,just lose the stealth.it's usless,as soon as u attack(and brutes do a lot of attacking).give it a taunt aura intead.
what would the set be like,if it gained rttc instead of conserve energy?
And i don't know about anyone else,but i think it's tier 9 needs work too.maybe it's just me.
sorry if these ideas suck.im a noob:P -
Hi.A long while ago,I set myself the task,of getting one of each archtype to lvl 50.On both cov and coh.
I've got all the one's on coh.Now it's cov time.
I've got a dom,brute,and widow to 50 so far.I'm doing a mm atm,at lvl 30 now,so looking for what to do next.
I chose corruptor to do next.
As I mainly team,not solo,does anyone have a good choice for powersets to take,that are good for teaming?
-
Cool.So it's best to have it as an attack,doing damage,AND a heal too.I think for now,2 acc,2 dam,2heal seems my best choice atm.
don't know about anyone else,but i find dark melee quite inaccurate.Is this true,or is it just me?
tyvm shannon for heads up -
i was just wondering.i've got a dark melee/energy aura brute,at lvl 24 atm.i use siphon life a lot.the power gives you back around 20% of your hp's every time it hits.so,is it worth slotting for damage,or just heals?as no matter the damage,the heal will be the same.is that right?should i just use it as a heal?does the amount healed get more,the more heal enh you put in it?
also,is touch of fear good?
any good tips for using dark melee? -
hey all.don't know if ppl are getting a lot of tells,when playing a veat,from ppl asking about thier powers/build,etc,but ive had loads.so,just for those ppl,and any others who are interested,heres what ive learnt from playing my widow(lvl 48 atm).
before hitting 24,you'll have to make do with the widow's basic attacks/defensive powers.dont worry though,as they are very,very good.i took spin asap,as later,when hidden,you can crit a lot of badguys at once.most of the attacks for widows' claws have some amount of poison dot,and can be used when hidden to critical hit an npc.
the defensive powers are a good mix,helping to keep you alive,and to buff the team's abilities.
NIGHT WIDOWS:
for night widows,things become a lot more like a stalker,being hidden,then critical hitting,then placate,then another crit,etc.smokebombs are fantastic,as a good -acc debuffer.a good combo is 2 smokebombs,then buildup,spin,then psiwail.you get elude at lvl 38,which is a fantastic tier 9 power to hit when you're outnumbered/in trouble.btw guys,just to note,you're most damaging attack,eviscerate,hardly ever crits when hidden,so use you're next best attack for starters(spin mostly).oh,and,the +movement power you can get,get it asap.it makes you recharge your powers a lot faster.all in all,a goodstalker/scrapper-like toon
FORTUNATA:i respecced into fortunata at lvl 38.never looked back.it's that good.really.not only can you use the basic widow attacks,but you have a lot of psi attacks at your disposal,plus a few ace hold/confuse/immob kinda powers to boot.ive gone for mostly ranged psi attacks with mine,but ive seen some good ppl with melee attacks+psi stuff too,and rock.you know who you are,ppl
the best combo you can have is psi-tornado+psi-scream.together,they do a lot of dam,plus together,they give a -80%recharge to the mob you hit.nasty.the best effect you have is your pbaoe confuse,its fantastic to see the face of your teammates,as you run right into the middle of a mob,and hit it.cleaning up a mob is easy when they're hitting each otheryou also get a good hold attack,that has a good range.make sure you slot a couple of acc enh in it.this toons like a psi blaster,with a few other stuff thrown in.
all in all,a very good toon to do.the only things i cant take out atm,are eb's and av's solo.time will tell
btw,ppl.2 words for ya: MIND LINK.yep,both night and fortunata can have it,and make sure you get it,and 4-5slot it asap.the def buff you get from it,is fantastic,and your team will love you for the anti-psi def it'll give them.it doesn't take normal recharge enh,but io sets that give +rech will affect it.use hasten if you want it running faster.
and no,because i dont use any widow attacks,i can never do a crit.i just aoe the mobs to oblivionbeen asked that quite a few times already.
for my travel power,i went with fly.mainly for hover,but also cos grandville is annoying to get around without it.
took fitness pool.health and stamina is a must,especcially stamina.i found fortunata very end hvy.not so much night though.
both kinds are very good,at different things.im not gonna put up a build,mainly cos i think half the fun is finding out stuff yourself,taking the good and the bad together(till u respec).
i hope anything i've said here can help someone.widows are a lot of fun.ive enjoyed mine for all 48 lvls so far,and ill be enjoying it most the last 2 lvls.
tyvm to those ppl ive teamed with,especially those who ive done the imperious tf with.thats been the most fun ive had on this game for the whole time ive been playing
good luck,fellow widows,and please,for the love of all that is holy,STOP SENDING ME ALL THESE TELLS!!!!(kidding)
STATIC WIDOW,over and out -
ty for replying,guys.my fire/kin/fire is lvl 41.took advantage of x2 xp weekend.because i lvled so fast,i dont know much,but i do know i want to do the family farm(most farmers i know are doing it).is there a particular combo u use when farming?
-
hi ppl.i was just wondering,does anyone have a good fire/kin/fire build for a troller wanting to farm?
ive taken superspeed,and fitness pool.what powers do i need from sets?any protective stuff from 'other' pools?ive only got 1 respec,so i would like a good one.pls,if anyone can help.tyvm. -
In reply to your notes,ive never taken any other protection powers from 'other'pools,so ive just been using the stuff from willpower pool to keep me alive.ive slotted my rttc with 3 heals,2 debuffs,1 end redux.At 36,im running a total of 5 toggles.As for the taunt aura,yeah,its a little funny,but with the taunt you get from mace,plus the taunt power,ive not had much trouble.And sitriel,ive had that kinda thing happen in pvp too.My nrg brute m8 had owned me a few times,THEN i put on my toggle for nrg protection.He never killed me after that.
-
ok.as a lot of ppl seem to need help with willpower,ie;its usefulness,etc,i thought i would put down some things ive noticed with willpower.
GET ALL THE WILLPOWER POWERS!
this may seem obvious,but really.they work together to keep you alive.
most of the powers can slot heals,as well as defensive enh.this is really good,especially with fast healing too.
rise to the challenge,is THE power of the set.it heals you,taunts,and debuffs the enemies around you.just be warned,u need to run into the mobs and get at most 10 npc's next to you,to get it working at max.
you get powers that wil give heals,def,dam res,and mez protectoin.what you dont get is and instant-heal power like regens do.so carry a few green insps for safty.
i took the fitness pool,and,yes,it helped immensly.even with your heals and end recovery powers from willpower.it also means you dont need to slot any end redux in your attacks.
the last power of the set is a doozie.now,some ppl dont like the 'godmode' power at tier 9.but this one has to be up there with the coolest.you get a great boost to your healing,and when it runs out,you lose half your end.THATS IT!not like invun,where all your end and health goes.this means you just carry on regardless.
the only power i skipped,was the self rez.if your a good wp tank,you wont need it.lol.
some of the things my 36 tank has done so far:
taunted/pulled 3 +6 mobs for a team.and was the only one to walk away alive.
has stood toe to toe with the winterlord,solo,for 5 mins.
i also walked up to a dead teammate,in the middle of a mob of +8's,handed him a wakie,while being attacked,and walked away.
handed snaptooth his [censored],+3,solo.
and im only 36.so much left to do!
now,where is that alabastor?lol.
all in all,willpower is looking,and playing,ace.if anyone wants a fun toon to try,TRY A WILLPOWER TANK TODAY!
ty.

ok.just thought id recap.ive taken onboard what u guys have said.im trying as a melee attacker.ive slotted skewer,impale,and throw thorns with 1 acc 3 dam each.i tried doing a mish.got killed by a mob of yellows.but after the mish,i killed a +4 purple single luit on his own,no prob.seems im more suited now to killing single ppl at a time.ive got combat jumping,and stealth,both with about 40% def in each,but still dying a lot.and,with it being too damn hard to find teams on cov,means im going to have to solo at low diff it seems.ty for yr help guys.
-
cool.ty mighty(and u others too).im going for stabby stabby rippy now.
-
for 1 thing,darkest night drains end like a sponge,so slot for end redux.twighlight grasp=2 acc,2 heals,2 rech.just def bonus in shadowfall.4 slot health and stamina.hover,not air sup.theres an io that can make yr survant do psi dam,look into that.the psi?ive no idea.lol sorry.
-
ah.that may be where im going wrong,ill try melee for a bit.i usually do the confuse/immob/cone attack combo.ill try it diff.should i slot the 2 1st and 2nd ranged attacks from plant,and how?the 1st i use for a good hold,the other for dam,any thoughts?
-
doms seem under-powered to me(may be mistaken!!).i have a plant/thorns dom at 33,and cant do a mish at high diff.does anyone pls have a good build for pve for it,or any advice?i have taken most of the primary(except tree and sleep),and only a couple of attacks from sec(as most are melee,and i play ranged).pls,any help?
-
ok.spirit tree sucks,so does thorntrops.the confuse is best in game,so slot it well.combat jumping helps a lot,for the aggro.vines needs good recharge.i took stealth myself,as its good for getting close to use confuse well.u dont need any more travel powers apart from superjump.dont bother slotting the 1st thorns power,it sucks.w8 till u get impale.now that rocks!the 1st power u should take for plants set,should be the hold.the dam sucks,so slot for holds.this is handy for holding a boss,while u take down the mob.carrion creepers are gr8!slot well.personally,i dont take much from thorns set,but the ranged attacks are cool(i like the cone!)the thorn apbaoe is useless,as u should be away from melee.enjoy it,nomatter what!i am with mine!GO BLACKHEATH!!!
-
does anyone have a rad/psi build at all?it seems a good build so far,but all the help...um,helps?
-
what of the 'other' power pools are good for a blaster?ive got an nrg/nrg blaster,that uses no melee attacks.so ive got a few powers to take,to make up for their spots.anyone know of a few good powers to take for a blaster?i use hover all the time.fitness pool's a must.what now?pls help!
-
Does anyone Have a good nrg/nrg blaster build?I've got to lvl 20 so far.I've taken fitness pool,and hover and fly.Anything else good for them?I dont want to use any melee attacks.I'd rather just SHOOT stuff!!Pls help!!
