Void Spirit

My experience is that the difficulty in Primal Earth has increased, at least in certain respects. My lvl 50 softcapped kat/wp scrapper had the Maria Jenkins' Siege mish that I previously ran repeatedly since it was relaxing to kill tons of mobs with no chance of dying. Post-GR I entered the "same" mish, but it was an entirely redone mission that I was barely able to survive and complete.

I'm trying to understand the pros and cons of having a Hero go Vigilante (or a Villain go Rogue). I've gathered from the forums that the different temp powers for each alignment aren't useful enough to be a significant factor in choosing alignments.

If a Vigilante can participate in both blue and red side teams and task forces, then that would seem to be a huge reason to go Vigilante rather than stay Hero. What is the reason to stay Hero rather than going Vigilante?

I will often list salvage at 1 over a round number, e.g. 20001 or 50001. What I've noticed recently is that WW appears to ignore my 1. For example, checked in this morning and my batch of 10 listed at 50001 each sold for 500000 total when at a minimum it should have sold for 50,000 X 10 = 500,010.

This has happened more than once recently, so it is not just a one time typo on my part. The loss of 10 in the above example is of course trivial, but my motive in listing at 50,001 was to avoid the round number bid of 50,000 in the hopes of receiving a higher round number bid.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Is this a known issue?

If there is room, I will bring Void Spirit lvl 50 kat/wp scrapper.

Fiona Morte fire/rad corrupter. Resistance is not futile.

My schedule is uncertain and it looks like this is full anyway. But if I'm on I may check in to see if a spot opened up.

Hi All,

I'm tinkering with a build in mids for my first pvp character but I don't have a feel for what works in pvp. I would appreciate some guidance on the following questions:

(1) Is the Devastation proc worth slotting?

(2) Would the Executioner's Contract proc be worth slotting in Psionic Lance?

(3) Assuming a global Accuracy buff of 50%, to what level is it advisable to slot Accuracy in the individual powers?

Thanks in advance.

I logged in fine to Freedom, did some WW business for 5 minutes, logged out to switch toons, and now I just repeatedly get the DBserver message.

As I was staring at a bid amount trying to count the commas and digits as they blurred before my eyes, it occurred to me that color coding would ease my eye strain and reduce the risk of bid mistakes. Has this been suggested before and rejected? How hard would it be to implement? Would you find this option helpful?
For discussion purposes the following is a possible color coding scheme:
Purple: 1 billion +
Dark Orange: 100,000,000 thru 999,999,999
Medium Orange: 10,000,000 thru 99,999,999
Light Orange: 1,000,000 thru 9,999,999
Dark Yellow: 100,000 thru 999,999
Medium Yellow: 10,000 thru 99,999
Light Yellow: 1,000 thru 9,999
White: 1 thru 999 if anyone

I will plan on bringing Greymin lvl 30 psi/em blaster.

I will plan on bringing Void Spirit lvl 50 kat/wp scrapper.

Given the limited number of market slots:

(1) Despite advice to "buy low sell high" -- settle for selling less than the high mark. Otherwise the slot could be tied up for days or weeks.

(2) If you are selling something that is not a fast moving item, email it to a seldom used alt to do the selling so that your active character's slots are not tied up.

(3) Stay away from recipes/enhancements that sell slowly (i.e. where the last 5 sales are spread out over weeks, or indicate an insufficient sale rate relative to the number up for sale).

If there is room, I would like to bring Greymin lvl 27 psy/em blaster.

If there is room, I would like to bring Void Spirit lvl 50 kat/wp scrapper.

The few times I've ventured into RV (as a hero), I've gathered from the villains' gentle words of encouragement that they are on the same broadcast channel as heroes. Aside from team chat, what channel do heroes use among themselves to coordinate in a pvp zone?

I am leveling up a psy/em blaster to be my first pvp character.

I am surprised that most of the posted pvp psy/em builds slot power thrust with a full set. Is this because power thrust is actually used alot in pvp, or is it mostly just for the set bonuses?

I wish that dual build allowed the second build to use enhancements from the primary build.

I found Mojo's guide to be a big help:

The OP asked for a kat/wp build, but when I load MrLiberty's reply build into Mids, it is a psy/em blaster.

How much of a danger is there that GR will introduce new sets or attributes so that the values of purples and other high end sets will fall?

No.

I have not used teleport as a travel power, so this may be a stupid question. Is this toggle suggestion necessarily mutually exclusive with the current system? Or could the proposed toggle just be added as an alternative?
