NRG Manipulation all again looks ok with the exception of boost range.

[/ QUOTE ]

I must say I think that boost range is possibally one of the the best power you can get from energy to use with AR.

Why? Cones my friend, cones. AR has more cones than any other, buckshot and flamethrower have rather short ranges (40 feet) with full auto being about 60 feet. Anyone within those cones is potentially going to get hit (though admittedly limited by the 10 mob cap for cones).

Now throw in boost range. It is perma with 3 recharges SOs and suddenly all your cones have 75% further range which equates to roughly (off the top of my head) 3 times as much space covered by the AoE. Less need to set up tight cones as your cones are massive <img src="/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />. Flamethrower and buckshot have a 70 foot range and full auto a 105 foot range (thats nudging snipe range)!

I can understand that for blaster sets with only one cone and mostly target centred AoEs or PAoE the effect is less impressive as the increased range does not affect the potential area covered by the AoE, just how far it can be flung. But AR is cone central <img src="/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.

took the increase range does work rather well.

i do like grenade as a after attack from full auto ,just to finish things off.

i have conserve power but probaly i dont give it the use it needs as i also have stamina but it is a handy power.

bean bag an total focus are great for disorient but so far i have left stun out from the energy power set

gtz Gonk ,always a pleasure teaming

gtz Psygon,always a pleasure teaming

Well done Dem

Bigggg GTZ

i finally made it to one of ur 50 dings

gtz London

The attacks are kinda easy to measure as you can actually see the usage , think i go without in armours.


ty for help guys.

now that i'm back, i wanna get Bugsy though his free respec.

does any one slot for end redux in armours ?

i normally put 1 end redux in the armours i leave on and none in the 1s i use ocassionally.

if any ones got the figures for this it would be handy as i'm also at lvl 33 with Cracked Mac Moo my no granite build stoney

Granite, overpowered? Bah, granite is, and will always be gimped, unless they remove all the penalties.

[/ QUOTE ]

Somehow from all the replies about Granite armour I've seen from u MaX I get the ideal that you don't have anything good to say about this set then, you are replying identically to questions about Stone in the Brute section.

lol

[/ QUOTE ]That is because granite goes directly against the whole consept of the brute AT.

[/ QUOTE ]

goto say i would stay well clear of being a granite brute.

totaly agree Max.

Well, enjoy it, folks... there's no Lanaru the Mad around on this one to cause massive wipeouts - no GM's or AV's at all. Your biggest risk will be dying from sheer boredom...

[/ QUOTE ]

eek Lanura the Mad ,yep team wipe is a must advoid at all possible costs

did any one know Lanura is my big brother?
and hes only mad cause i tell him what you lot say about him

i had thought about healing pool my self and am still considering it.

earths embrace already slotted three health, three recharge and hasten three slotted recharge , if dun at start of fight basically takes me from 1 mob to the next with no difficulty.

if i were to go healing pool i may even consider 6 slot health and add another health to rooted just to max out the health regen rate with the lvl 34 respec looming , think i might pander to that idea b4 i decide.

superstrength secondary has i still like to smash and i found a fire rather lame sound effect for me.

did a fire brute on CoV but by lvl 30 was rather bored

got my 2nd stone tank at lvl 31,for which i wont be taking granite.

currently have all shields but minerals ,which will be taken by lvl 40.

in the main earths embrace get me out of most situations ,but i'm now gettin to the point where instead of being +1 +2s ,i'm being asked to do +3s which is gettin tricky.

so is tough an weave worth it ,i have no experience of these powers an wondered what opinion would be and how they would help me?

Very much depends how you wanna play,nope post 32 the other armours are not essential.
But they are handy.Also allows you a bit of variation to your game play.

After i got granite i had a great 3-4 lvl feeling invinceble then the game got rather boring by which time i had respected out said armours only to put them back in on lvl 44 respec

I'm actually on my second stone tank at mo,lvl31
for which i wont be gettin granite,in most situation at the moment earths embrace does a superb regen rate to get me out of trouble.

Supergroup invite spam. A lot of newer players to the game will accept blind SG invites, and learn what passes for normal ingame from people who can be less than polite. Not meaning to be up on my high horse, but I used to think SG's that invite blindly deserve people that accept blind invites - changed my mind lately, however, as many new players simply do not know what basic courtesies used to be present server-wide and are now resigned to established SG's and private channels. There ARE good players coming into the game, of course (TANC has had the good fortune of coming across several of late), but oh so very many are snapped up by supergroups which simply do not deserve the title and are either put off the game or pick up bad manners.

hehe blind invite = bad player, ILMAO

Actually been playin for a year and just recently accepted 2 blind sg invites
both been cool and friendly people and i would rather join these people

then ,

ingame you tell a player"blah blah blah help plz"
player resonse" what sg are you in"
me"huh sg name "
player "my advice is join good sg we have room if you want some help"
me " no chance freinds mean to much to me "
player"soz cant help you"

on several ocassions this has been done by people in well known sgs and indeed people who use the forums.
who then moan about blind invites!!!!

Whats wrong teaming exclusively with your SG? In the end everyone tries to get around bunch of people who share similiar intrests, humour etc.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yup.

[/ QUOTE ]

There is nothing wrong with prefering to group with your SG, a few people have pointed out good reasons for that. Saying you will only group with your SG and/or friends is a step towards being a clique but isn't bad in of itself.

The bad part of a clique and what makes it earn the name over just being a group of friends is where your completely dismissive and rude towards people that aren't a member of the clique. Saying you will only group with friends or your SG can sound dismissive of others and be why people can jump to the conclusion that your being rude where you aren't.

[/ QUOTE ]

this is well said.

and the people who like the sg teams are in the norm nice people.
but occasionly the wording get mixed up or something silly
and it does come across as my games better then your game,
which automaticaly leads to the next person goin on a defensive.

as for the way this thread deterioated i'mm ashamed of you guys , you been all arround long enough to know better

[ QUOTE ]
was on that team, and a real blast it was too
Congrats
Did we have enough scrappers?

[/ QUOTE ]


Gtz to Sats.

And it always a blast with the monkeys

as in real life a difference of a freind an a asossiate often gets confused.

i've have a few real freinds ingame ,i've plenty of people who think global freinds list ="team plz" and use it as a cross over from COH to COV depending whos on.

the other problem is as in real life freinds move on they make new freinds.
apart from avin fun when i log on , i expect very little but am more often supprised.
if i had great expectations i would be more often disapointed.

they cant hurt you, you can only hurt yourself.

They're both quite nice with sweet chilli sauce, though if not cooked correctly (i.e. by me: worst cook ever) can be very tough and stringy. And for a change, they don't taste like chicken .

i think burnt an crisp would be the only way i could stomach it

carry on cookin

oooh little Sylp

Put together a good or even excellent team, and you'll have no problems with the above.

[/ QUOTE ]

One could argue thats the problem. These teams rarely need a tank anyway
I pretty much considder my tank dead. Its not that he cant survive, hes just not as good as other toons, namely trollers.

[/ QUOTE ]

every one to there own opinion.

for me if i'm leader on another AT , i prefer follow the tank an let him do the job hes supposed to.

as for the tank not being needed , well no particaliar AT is needed just gud comonsense players.
