    MADNESS.
    Had the same thing happen to be yesterday. And even more maddening, people had fun on the TF.
  2. Hey, I'd love it if the Suggestions and Ideas board had well thought out suggestions and wasn't used as the complaint department.......but that's not gonna happen, either.
  3. Do any of you whiners actually read the forums? I'm surprised this topic doesn't have it's own section by now.

    And with Aim and Build Up, I'm firing it every second it is up. The ability to knock out that many targets, that quickly, is worth a blue skittle.

    I wish there was an example of the removal of powers and enhancement values already in the game that could be used as a counterpoint to this overly emotional argument.

    This game needs some ponies. They're the catgirls natural enemy.

    Definitely agree. It's one of my favorite controller secondaries.
  9. Can't stand sonic blasters solo........they feel so slow. I'll take an Energy/Elec, personally. Less of the melee damage is put into a slow animating attack.

    I'm biased, though. I much prefer Sonic on Defenders than Blasters.

You don't need to police the forums like this. If you trust the developers, then trust them to make the right decision based on direct feeback, not just feedback deemed acceptable.

    Perspective is needed, and many of these threads get one sided. That doesn't do anyone any good, and without counterarguments there isn't a solidly developed feedback. When two sides are taken, the quality of the feedback benefits.

    I think I'll go put a suggestion in the Suggestions/Ideas forum for a difficulty slider. I envision it allowing players to choose not only the level, but the numbers, and maybe I'll even add a boss option.

    Stalkers were broken before the new content was a twinkle in the devs eyes.

    It's been acknowledged, they just don't really know how to provide a solution.

    Depends on your perspective. For a new player with no funds, that doesn't read the forum to learn the secrets of earning (not uncommon for players to not read the forum), then a fully IO'ed out dream build will appear to be every bit or more daunting than getting shards solo. For that player it IS the next evolution of their character, and often in enormously game changing ways.

    There's too much exaggeration in this thread and not enough perspective.
  15. After the recent normalization of fury, I don't really worry about it any more.

    Traps is a very odd set in terms of opinion. It's gone from lolTraps to overpoweredTraps and back and forth so many times that no one can keep track. It's one of those sets that doesn't seem to have a middle ground.

    Half want to buff it, the other half are afraid it will get nerfed.

    They didn't even put a check in to see that you get one notice per week.....
  18. And quite a few still prefer to get their level on in AE.

    The players are there, but there are a lot more places to hide out in now.

    But the question specifies 'support'. I don't make that response sarcastically, but to point out a very underrated point: Everyone supports everyone.

    We call certain sets 'support' because of misconstrued concept that the damage dealers are the ones 'doing the work', which just isn't correct. You'll very rarely hear a team say "nice blasting", whereas you'll often hear a team say "nice heals." It is taken for granted that the damage dealer was being supported by healer.


    If a player is getting damaged, the Blaster/Scrapper shouldn't sit back and say, "Not my job. I don't have any controls. I don't have any heals." They can help support their fellow player by pulling aggro and defeating the enemy. Even though we misconstrue the word 'support', they do support the team through their tools available. A toon providing -res to amplify damage output no more supports the damage dealer than the damage dealer supports the player providing the -res. It's a mutual partnership, and they mutually support one another.

    Still around. Still being used.
  21. There are currently at least 3 Virtue channels devoted to badgings (Virtue Badges 2011, Virtuebadges09, Virtue Badges). Subscribe to all three, one of them will eventually get sorted out.

    In the newer content, where control is as important as everything else, the other ATs have caught up quickly.

    For a pet control AT, they need better control over the pets.
