    So I have to search for SFMA (story focused mission arc) in the in-game search or go to the AE board and look for arcs people have posted.

    There are a lot of great stories in AE, it is too bad that more people don't play it.

    For me the main reason I don't play it more is that it isn't good for teams. I am torn between wanting to play mission arcs, read the stories, read the clues and really get into it, and joining a team that just blasts through content.
    There are too many farms and too many outdated missions to sort through.

    Do you want to knock your enemy into the next galaxy?

    As it stands now they are useless, just play a brute.
    Play a Brute if Scrappers are weak. They do not need any change in my point of view.

    New build for Murcielago, more of everything. I'm beginning to feel that I need to start stripping my other characters of their enhancements and sell them off to focus solely on Murcielago. I haven't played them in a long time and when I do they aren't my kind of fun.

    I haven't played in about 3 months, what have I missed so far?
  15. Santorican
    Looks like I might have to come out of retirement...
  16. Santorican
    Sooooo what'd I miss? Does anyone have a TLDR version?

    How's it feel having another AT come in and hijack your mechanic and assume your place?

    After all the complains I've made about Tankers not being the team's heavy hitter and having Fury stolen from them by Brutes and how you and others responded to those 'concerns', I find your present concerns to be deliciously ironic. By all means, try to refute and say that the two situations are nothing alike. Meanwhile, I bask in your anguish. Mmmmm, delicious.




    Maybe it's just a perception thing, but I feel that Scrappers are getting exactly what they had coming for years. Go back to your Pylon challenges and take your tears with you.




    .
    I can't believe I'm actually agreeing with Johnny Butane but Scrappers do not need anything. They're probably one of the best balanced ATs in the game.

    I'm considering just letting my lapse in payment continue. I haven't really found anything that excites me like Incarnates did in CoH.

    But as it is, I'd rather they look at sets like Energy Melee, Trick Arrow and Force Fields before Spines. The AoE makes up for the lacking ST and can be a boon in teams, while other sets are falling behind somewhat, or their one trick pony isn't doing it's trick as well as the new llama they've added to the game.
