Ah to hell with Debt..

Good man.. BRING ON THE DEBT!!!!

Ah, the best bit about being level 50 - it's not the status, it's not the congratulatory messages on the forums, it's not the Hami raids... it's the ability to go "Meh, debt? Like I care...", then proceed to fight to the death a lot more often, rather than run like hell the minute your defiance bar builds up to 0.1... or is that just me?

Signing up again, if we don't manage it this time, suggest we slaughter tons of Villains in Bloody Bay.

Tera Storm - Elec/Ice/Munitions Blaster - Tesla Cage and Cryo Freeze Ray, both with 3 Hold Duration SOs slotted, and Vanguard accolade - Still need help finding a group for getting the Geas of Kind Ones accolade...

You did the right thing MisterJ. ED strikes again

All of which tells us that we need to get our nerf bats, head to Cryptic's offices, and nerf them till THEY start complaining... then keep nerfing them - it's the only way they'll understand the situtation...

^^^ And she says I need tranquilizers... power-crazed much, Skimp?

I guess if all else fails, and we don't look like we have enough people, we can always send a few people to CoV and spam the broadcast channels until they get the hint...

Well, I've built the shell of the HS base, we still need more prestige to get a computer though... I'll be doing my bit in the coming week (Hami raid next Friday - got my character set up to wear my own colours in SG mode ), I wonder how many others will... (And yes, that is aimed at those who keep playing Villains... )

EDIT : I'll make sure that the prestige is spent on a computer OTHER than ugly's old pc...

Great - figured out how and where to spawn the two GMs in Croatoa - anyone want to get a team together sometime to do some hunting towards the accolade power?

Right, just Giant Killer, Pumpkin King, and Cabalist to go. Cabalist will be simple enough - just need to find time, and a team - but I can't find Eochai or Jack in Irons anywhere... any help would be much appreciated.

Ouch, that's a lot of badges to get... Guess I'll be playing Heroes a lot more than Villains until the raid, then... thanks for the info.

Right, now that I've calmed down (I'm mainly blaming my livebox now, stupid update...), I'm up for the re-attempt. Remember, it wasn't a defeat, it was a tactical retreat!

One question though - where do you get this "Geas of Kind Ones" thingy, and what does it do? Since it sounds like it helps holds, I'm probably gonna need it to help back up the troller hold teams. (What with having two ranged holds on my blaster, and a third melee-range one if required)

I wonder if we'll manage to beat Hami again... I mean, did we actually beat the 3 second hold we managed during the time my wanadoo livebox decided to kick me off for a sh-... stupid update?

I didn't mind ED, but now, after that debacle, Statesman can shove his PvP-biased adjustments up his backside...

Wow, surprised you managed to spell my main villain's name right!

Oh, and where is Ugly's twin? Surely he should have been included in this too? (Obviously under Fire Green's alts... just kidding!)

Also Demonette has a Villains alt - forgotten who it is though, is it Jackle?

Or by using Aim/Build Up/Ball Lightening/TB. Actually if you add Static Discharge in between ball lightening and TB to that you can take +3s, and getting all three out before the time runs out on aim and build up is no problem. I didn't take the epic AOE personally but I had it on the test server and it was tempting to try and make room for it - I probably would have done if I didn't have another blaster set up for AOE damage already.

[/ QUOTE ]

Heh, forgot about using Ball Lightning - tend to use it after TB though, since it leaves less enemies to be aggroed by the initial attack, albeit at the cost of one measly CaB... Besides, I rarely solo with my blaster, so I usually have teammates with back-up AoEs, usually going off just as TB connects.

More annoyed with the reduction in Stamina's effectiveness, but I feel the hit less due to the two End boosting badges, and Hasten is still useful, you just can't perma-hasten anymore, but to be honest, you rarely needed to anyway.

Now to take advantage of the whole ED aspect, and get loads of Hami-Os! 4 different enhancement types boosted with 3x SO strength? Yes please!

Well, made my corrupter - Infernomancer, a Fire/Rad combination, dunno whether I'll use him more than Kata or not - but at least I have a blaster-like option now!

And before you ask - yes I do have AM

Not Thermal and the gfx lag of doom!

Great to have shields and heals but by eck, it sure brings the FPS down fast!

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I never said it would definitely stay Fire/Fire...

Seriously, will go with Fire as primary, but undecided on the secondary - see what makes him act the most like Tera...

Speaking of the lopsided-ness of ATs in the group, I'm tempted to bring out the second character I had from the beta - A Fire/Fire Corrupter... Meh, I'll see what levels are on tonight before deciding...

Katatsubasa no Akuma - The arch-nemesis of my hero OneWingedAngel. (Incidentally, "Katatsubasa no Akuma" is "One Winged Devil" in Japanese )

Meh, I prefer sending bolts of electricity into their crotch, but what do I know?

I'm just glad that Build Up + Aim + Thunderous Blast can still kill same level minions when it only has 3 damage SOs - guess I can take out lieuts with some help from the tankers and scrappers. (Or with help from someone with the Leadership pool set, or popping a few reds before hand)

May as well chuck my alts in :

High Society - Tera Storm, OneWingedAngel
*No group* - Light Ultimus (hardly ever use him)

And for when I finally get on CoV - Katatsubasa no Akuma

That about covers it...

Tera Storm reporting for his second tour of duty, sah! Hope I can see what I'm aiming at this time!
