Tufty

from a Rad Ranger point of view it doesnt bother me which SG i'm in.

from an SNHS leader view, then yes its fine by me to create a Rad Ranger rank. u never know, once our base is functionin the makeshift tanks may come in useful

ultimately tho the SNHS decision lies with Electrify.

and u'd have to be prepared to exemp down a long way. our highest is only lvl 14

pfft... and skewer.. he died just as much as me

Issue is just another name for an update. obiviously the main influance of the City of games is comic books so the major updates are referred to as issues.

ED = enhancement diversification (sp?). basically a controversial system that was introduced during the last issue to encourgae players to make use of different types of enhancements (i.e. not 6 slotting all attacks with only damage enhancements). If you are new to the game it wouldn't really effect you, but more info can be found on the forums.

i'm guessin Sonic blaster (for the cryin) with added toxic powers! (yum.. baby sick )

i dont really mind what we do. if we dont get to start the tf this week the we dont get to start it, we'll just have to wait until we get a week where everyone turns up. altho xmas is fast approachin so we may not be able to start/finish it til next yr!

if everyone agrees to meet up at then weekend then i can bring syph along (anytime durin the day is best for me). altho personally i dont get to spend that much time online durin the week (normally only an hr or so per day) so i do like to concentrate on playin my mains at the weekends when i have the most free time. but as i said if everyone agrees to meet at the weekend then, rl permittin, i will be there.

i've decided to ignore flight and go with hasten and super speed as my next power choices.

thought up some keybinds so hopefully if they work i'll be on the enemie and causing some good dmg with 4 key presses i'll be wantin to test this soon so if anyone wants to be my arena guinea pig it would be helpful

big congratulations to you and the missus matey. agree with most people aswell, its a lovely name. again grats

these are just my opinions on dark miasma.. hope you find them useful..

1) its better to uterlise tar patch for the -resistance rather than the slow. the effect stacks aswell so its better to have it up asap so as people before have said slot with 3 recharge before putting in slows. i don't believe its a must have power in the early levels either so you may want to consider not taking it til mid teens.

2) get twilight grasp. its a heal (obviously you wont be an empath) but it'll save your life!

3) dont think its necessary to have 3 recharges on holwing twilight unless you want to use it as a control power but then i'd say fearsome stare is better.

4) no fearstome stare? personally i think its a great power and is always the first move i use in a fight.

5) you will need at least 1 end red in darkest night

6) swap def buff for resistance in shadow fall

7) fluffy has some kind of tohitdebuff PBAoE thing running that is very very good so slot him with some tohitdebuffs

on defenders i'm pretty sure recharge is 4 mins and duration is 4 mins, so when he goes you can get him back straight away. its pointless slotting recharges in cos u cant have more than 1 anyway, but on Tufty i can definately summon a new fluffy after the other has gone.

TOF may be very useful.

TOF? touch of fear????? if thats what you mean u've got the powersets confused. if it isnt then what is tof?


thanks for everyones replys. what i think i am going to do next is:

next power choice take flight, personally i can cope without a travel power altho i admit it would be useful, also i'm mainly goin to be teamin when enterin the PvP zones so i do need to keep up with my team mates.

at the moment i'm happy with my attack sequence and defense. so after flight i think i will taken hasten. by startin a fight hittin build up and hasten i'm hopin to do some good damage. takin hasten will also open up superspeed as another option should i want it later.

now whether or not this is a good idea or not i shall just have to see. i think i've got enough inf for a full set of lvl 25 SO's so when i do hit 25 and have taken those 2 powers i will just have to go into the pvp zones and find out. (i'll also be in the repsec lvl range if things do go wrong ).

its gonna be a long way to 50 so i'm only concentrating on the short term and the best strategys for my current level. in this case i think the best idea is to cause as much damage as quickly as possible, and uterlising my current attack cycle with hasten and buildup sounds like a good idea to me. once i get to 50 then i can look at advanced builds like usin stealth and ss etc etc.

ok, whos knows about scrappers then?
after my week off work Phy currently sits at lvl 21 and could now use some idea's with what to do next.

current build is:
Archetype: Scrapper
Primary Powers - Ranged : Katana
Secondary Powers - Support : Dark Armor

01 : Dark Embrace damres(01) damres(3) endred(9)
01 : Sting of the Wasp acc(01) dam(3) dam(7) acc(17) dam(19)
02 : Death Shroud acc(02) dam(5) endred(9)
04 : Flashing Steel acc(04) dam(5) dam(7) acc(17) dam(19)
06 : Hover fltspd(06)
08 : Swift runspd(08)
10 : Obsidian Shield damres(10) damres(11) endred(11)
12 : Build Up recred(12) recred(13) recred(13)
14 : Divine Avalanche acc(14) dam(15) defbuf(15)
16 : Dark Regeneration endred(16)
18 : Hurdle jmp(18)
20 : Stamina endrec(20) endrec(21) endrec(21)

now the slots are probably a bit wrong but afaik its sort of right.

so at my next lvl 22 he options would be:
get another attack (lotus drops)
more defense in either cloak of darkness or murky cloud
health
teleport foe

1 thing u may of noticed is that i dont yet have a proper travel power. i was hopin to just get by on slotted hurdle, swift and hover. obviously the main aim is to PvP so didnt really want to worry about turnin my travel power on and off when enterin combat. obviously i'm a bit slower than everyone else but i get there in the end

i originally was goin to take flight for concept reasons, shall i still get it or do u think its worth just stickin with slotted hover, hurdle, swift etc to get around. hover acts as a poor mans acrobatics and helps against knockback/down (doesnt resist it but it helps) or shall i just respec in the leaping pool?

i want to take either clock of fear or oppressive gloom. which 1 is better in pvp? or shall i take both? or neither?

and finally my attacks are going to be slotted 2 acc, 3 dmg. the secondary effects of katana reduce the enemies defence, if the slots are spare to six slot is it worth slottin for def debuff?

that is all

i should be there as close to 7 as i possible can

if u want to act as a healer with dark miasma basically durin the early lvls just just need to slot it for accuracy and spam it because it can be unreliable. i had a key bound to "Heal Missed!! Get ready to run!" just so people knew that if they were in trouble it'd would be the right time to run away. once its slotted with SO's it becomes alot better.

it does have a long activation time so u just have to learn when you should use it and not leave it til the last possible minute when everyone is in the red. with regards to people moving away from you.. well thats not ur fault. just remind people if they want healing they need to be next to u.

and the dark miasma rez is arguably the best in the game. it is auto hit so no acc to worry about and will rez mutliple team mates within ur area to full health and endurance.. u only need 1 enemie present aswell.

try and stick with it tho, once slotted the heals become far more reliable, altho the main intention of a dark/dark is to take out the enemies accuracy so they cant hit ur team mates in the first place so they wont need healin as much.
