Thanks. When I got on my toon today it wasn't mapserving like yesterday. I'll remember to petition if it happens again in the future though.

I went to sign in on my main toon. As soon as I did I started mapservering continuously. I asked my vent buddies if they were mapserving and they said no. So I tried relogging and got the same thing. Then I tried to relog on a different toon and I was able to play just fine. For some reason my main toon is the only one that map serves. And this is kind of a problem because my main toon has like all of my infamy.

He's parked by a flyer in the little mini arachnos base (the one with the strikeforce) in Sharkhead if that helps at all. Also I'm running windows vista.

Glad to see that it was nerfed and that the merits went up to 30, but it was nerfed too much. The mobs by reichman at the end instead of coming too fast now come too slow. Stalkers don't even have to hit the kill switches anymore. Make the mobs come a little faster so that it's not quite at the level it was originally but fast enough to actually make it hard.

Sup. Was wondering if this is a good build. I've always wanted to make a stalker but whenever I think of a melee toon it's for a brute. So I figured well brutes don't have spines so I'd have to be stalker (red side). Then figured nin would be good for all the aoe goodies.

So is this good build or mediocre or crappy?

In the world today where everyone can buy a raptor pack for 10k there's really no need for group fly at all. It will just cause more problems than it's worth as previously stated.

Team teleport also suffers from causing more problems than it's worth syndrome.

You could also be one of the few cool kids like me that get grant cover for the defense debuff resistance (at least I never see other shield toons get that power).

Hey I just unlocked these and I was wondering what the specifics are on these 2 powers. Like everyone I know chooses sands of mu but I've always wondered why given it's long animation time. Is the ghost slaying axe just bad or something? Or are they both bad and so people just pick the one with the -tohit?

The problem with rage is that it favors resistance-based toons over defense. Defense-based toons rely mainly on defense to get by. But while resistance-based toons do benefit from defense, they don't solely rely on it. This creates a scenario where rage's defense debuff largely affects defense-based toons while just being a thorn in the side for resistance.

My solution would be to give it a debuff that affects all armor sets. Something like a tohit debuff or the like.

I wouldn't be against a server merge. I'm not clamoring for one either though.

Order of Vengeance is going to celebrate their 4th anniversary this weekend (looking to be saturday) by hosting events with prizes. I don't know much about the specifics but they will be posted in the Player Event forums sometime (hopefully soon). When it is I'll post a link to it. Any questions or comments should be discussed in that thread when it's made. This thread is just here to inform you championites of the event and to congratulate them on 4 years and going strong.

White Christmas

Thread needs moar drama.

While I agree that goodie heroes would frown upon using dark arts like necromancy, I also think it's entirely possible for them to be heroic. A prime example is Diablo 2 where you use the remains of your enemies as allies. It's this very reason that I think defenders should get poison.

I think thugs is the super strength of masterminds. You can't really go wrong with it since it covers most of your bases. Which is why I find both sets rather boring.

I have a ninja/dark and I plan on getting soul tenticles because tar patch and jounin's caltrops and oni's rain of fire all make mobs run like sissies. And I don't think you need both fear and stun.

I always thought that the illusion control set was kind of mastermindish.

I prefer dark personally over storm. The heal on dark is aoe and debuffs the enemy. Darkest Night is actually a useful debuff toggle whereas Snow Storm is ok (the only time I ever feel like I make use out of it is in PvP). Tar Patch and Freezing Rain are both pretty similar. Tar Patch is better in the respect that it debuffs damage resistance better, lasts longer, and has a bigger radius. But Freezing Rain recharges faster and does damage. Dark has a hold ability, and an aoe rez (which helps on rikti raids).

I would like to see /sonic because it would be fun to put those sonic toggles on your pets.

I've always wanted to like masterminds, but have never really been able to get into one. I think I figured out why after I made a ninja/dark MM. The attacks that masterminds get aren't very interesting. For instance the attack skills ninja MMs get are snap shot, aimed shot, and fistful of arrows. I think it would be better if they had aimed shot, fistful of arrows, and blazing arrow. Or maybe even aimed shot, blazing arrow, and explosive arrow. I plan on not getting any of the attack skills and just getting night fall and soul tenticles because they're at least somewhat interesting.

Yes I understand that masterminds are supposed to be mainly about the pets. But I don't really want to feel like I'm sitting around picking my nose while they're fighting. Sure I can use my supportive powers but I find that just being completely supportive is boring. I never play my bots/pain MM anymore.

I remember how Castle said that Doms needed to be more damage oriented. I think MMs do too. When I play a mastermind I want to be like Brutal Legends where my character can kick *** too.

I threw snow at him hyuk hyuk.

It was pretty enjoyable. I sort of wish that presents sometimes would spawn a winter lord without triggering the raid. Maybe the one that triggers the raid is called winter guardian, which would make sense because there are winter guardians in the raid zone.

One of the reasons I like villain side is it's so easy to get from place to place because ouroborus takes you to almost every zone. This is not the case for hero side. Hero side has a lot more zones so in order for it to be as convenient as villain side you have to give the hero ouroborus more options. One of the reasons I don't like task forces is because of how much running there is from place to place because you can't ouroborus there.

In b4 use base portal. The point of ouroborus is convenience.
