yeah, i miss the days of healing aura doing 500 points, heal other 1000 and ap 2.5k of healing

Builds similar to mine with the exception that im running 6 slotted leadership powers and no ancillery pool.

(by 6 slotted i mean 3 recharge and 3 tohit.def buffs)

not wishing to derail this thread too much but:

Healing aura - Heal
Heal other - heal
Absorb pain - heal
rez - heal (well sorta)
cm - buff (tho the usefullness when not facing mezing or stunning foes is limited)
recovery aura - end (wouldnt really class it as a buff as such but i'd be willing to concede the point)
regen aura - heal (see above)
Fort - arguably the best buff ever
ab - combination of the ra's only effective on one person, generally use it on anyone whose missed a ra

I don't have it and I'm not at all willing to have it, because as an empath I'm not a stupid h34l0r but primally and for the most a buffer.

Sorry mate but i'd say that empath is primerily a healer first and buffer second.

The other primaries in the defender have more buffs and empath has more heals.

Yes we have some good buffs but only a couple, primerily we're healers.

The_shuttler,

If your still in need of a super group then feel free to end me a tell @venture (try @mountain man if im not about).

We're an active SG on both heroes and villains and are in a coalition with the order of the cruciform swords and the echelon.

Im up for them on sat and sun days, evenings may be tricky.

Please, please, please not the first tho. done it 3 times in the last 2 weeks, if i see another portal lab map i,m gonna kill someone... Devs please show the SS TF's some love and give me some new eye candy!

While we're here discussin g prestige and the amount of people in super groups does anyonw know why its capped at 75? Our SG is relatively active but people have so many alts that we now have 3 sg's with many alts earning prestige for a sg hat doesnt need it rather than the main. It's very annoying...

IMHO a SG, if it must be limited, should be limited to 75 global handles rather than 75 toons...

As i understand it you must attack sally (making her submerge) on 2 seperate occasions in order to get this badge. (it was 10 but was fixed a while back thank god).

All members of a team will get credit for the hit but shes set up that one hit will send her underwater hence only 1 team can get credit at once.

why not, incidently im gonna open a book on what % of hamis health the server crashes. I'm going for 10%...

Coolio, can do week nights, weekends arent so good tho im about this sunday...

Yeah wish theyed add some sg missions, and i wish the tpers were more useful, ie beacons to all zones and back to mision doors upon death. *grumble grumble*

Only problem with our tp solution is only the arcane raid teleporter fits in the small tp room so we're using that rather than the tech one...

I'm curious P14273059. What rooms do you currently have?

Our base is fully raid capable with a vault and we have the smallest base plot at the moment with 9 rooms:

Entrance
Medical
Teleporter
Teleporter
Workshop
Workshop
Control Centre
Energy
Vault

What do you have instead or have you gone for rooms larger than the smallest available?

Personally I'd drop absorb pain - I awlays find it makes me rather vulnerable and get recall friend as early as possible - 8th maybe. The early lvls are where it's worth its weight in gold.

Absorb pain becomes invaluable at later levels when combined with regen aura. (lets hope the latters wai and doesn't get "fixed")

I had really gone off ap till i discovered using it with regen aura. Now it's a very very usefull power. Especially on the SS Tf's

Yeah kudos for hib for helping. And yeah we may need the patience of saints but at least we're getting something out of it, you must have the patience of god.

Thanks once again mate.

If the team is so bad that people die as soon as the empath stops acting like a healbot, there's something wrong with the team, not the empath...

A dead enemy is 100% damage mitigation, while heals are only repairing the damage already done.

Not necesserily, you could be up against large mobs of high enemies. (First ss on invinvible when your lvl 40for example )

to be fair i don't know why they dont set the conversion rate of inf to prestige at the sg regiisra to the same as it is when you switch between sg and non sg mode. Would be perfectly fair then imho.

Heroes can now get redeemed and the logbow spec ops gladiator badge.

Quickest way to do this is to get a dominator with confuse to zap a team of us in a pvp zone to take out the longbow.

Problem is its 500-1000 of the buggers.

Whose up for it on say sunday afternoon/evening or early next week and who has a dominator with confuse?

and the only options it offers, if i remember correctly,are one million or all of your millions (rounding down to the nearest you have)

well if its 5 seconds of disorientate unslotted then 3 slotting with so's will increase this to 10 secs (still not great). Generally nukes seem to get slotte either 3 damage and 3 recharge or 3 damage, 2 recharge and 1 acc.

I miss pre ED days of 6 slotted nukes and no limit on the number of villains they could effect...

If your defiant hero give me a tell at: @venture. We're a large SG wanting tech. We've got lots of magi components saved up ready to be traded...

sorry, by table i meant the executive conference one.

Is it me or is the whole base item placement system somewaht cumbersome?

Grats P, many happy returns. (all the cool heroes are 25!)

not just that but a sodding map server crash right after. they must be able to fix that...

yes, on tghe counters i believe. they wont go on top of the tables or desks

Coin, coin, coin... I find your lack of faith disturbing...

Far too quick to jack it in mate. :P

I cant do tuesday but i can makle any other day/evening this week (tho there is a high probablility im going to go nuts if i see many more of those cot maps).

Also if anyone wants to pvp at some point i still need forward observer

I know what you mean though coin, sometimes badging does get in the way of fun

Nice one guys. I wouldn't say it was fun, if i see another cot map im gonna gouge my own eyes out but it was cool teaming with you all. Cheers guys.
