    don't worry guys it was absolutely horrible, we even had exploding bodies dropped on us and the missions were filled with +10 AVs and the tree thorn vines had turned into Lusca tentacles.

    Highlights if you don't want your brain numbed. :









    To be fair it was kinda epic? As far as Train Wrecks of posts go.

    I went and added my own post to that thread so that more people could get a good laugh.
  4. is there anyway I could subscribe to posts by the OP?


    last time I laughed this hard reading something it was on the old forums, in the forums games section and it involved keyboard ingesting and squirrels.
  5. I can bring a sonic/therm corr but might have my demon MM high enough by then

    that was only my 2nd time seeing it and its even better when you expect it and it doesn't sneak up wiping out your team that is just surviving a large mass of romans we pulled up hill. though we did exit run it on this tf still awesome.

    even though i am PST mom still wouldn't like me on till 11pm(could run to 1am) so definitely two night.
  8. I want to bring a tank this time and since other tanks are already Shields, think i'll bring "Metal of the Fold" so another tanker primary is represented.
  9. I'll bring my shield tank in case there is enough for 2nd team.

    YAY!!! I hate speed runs, do we get to trigger dwarf stampede? only got to see it once when SG did an everything must die ITF
  11. I got "Metal of the Fold" past 35 and unlocked The Midnighter Club, going to try for 37 a few hours before it so i can get lv 40 IOs but otherwise my inv/dark tank is ready to go.


    Also a trick to get out from under the crystal is to Self Destruct(if you have it) and hosp it.



    Are cim traitors much stronger then BM's goons? Cause I ended up on a BM farm yesterday and it was boring easily to tank those guys at +2 and +3.(leader wasn't expert farmer)



    How are we going to approach the 1st and 2nd missions? I should be able to survive but with concentrating more on the Meatshielding, my damage is tiny so would take me forever to kill a small mob or a cyst. Also my travel is NR for now so won't be able to pull generals or for that matter skip shot past mobs unassisted.



    Did a DE mission where all but one member left during it so ended up trapped in a mob unable to jump out cause of low ceiling and surrounded on all sides, with DE pets making them unkillable with my low damage and unable to click ouro through all the mobs. Lucky turns out the scrapper that stayed had a vet tp. Of course detoggling so I died was unacceptable.
  12. on my first character until about lv 20 I thought you slotted enhancements in the enhancement tray so I carefully selected which 10 enhancements I kept in my tray.
  13. I am going to bring my new Inv/Dark tank, will be at least 35 and will have Dark Consumption which will help my end probs.
  14. I will probably bring my kin/arch but might have Sd/Fire tank high enough by then.


    Alt of course.

    maybe have enough for 2nd team
  15. 9 minutes late, going to try and get one started myself or will continue lving my new inv/dark tank. Just love him.

    Aggro Bug?

    It may have just looked like more but with my experience before I17 you could attract more then 17 but if any teammates came close any above that 17 would peel off and attack them, so a tank could herd massive numbers but it would be more dangerous cause large numbers could peel off and attack other teammates.


    I mean I understand not being able to keep more then 17 from attacking someone else but them completely ignoring you seems odd.

    ^This^ is how I feel it was before, you could grab tons of guys but any over *17*(not 16) would attack your teammates but now with them completing ignoring me it just seems weird. EDIT: Unless you have a build that can kill a specific AV or something with single target damage but can't survive getting hit by it, like might not work out but maybe an Inv Tank on a mish with SL damagers and Psi damagers grabs 17 of the SL which don't bug it much so it can kill the Psi ones that won't fight back.

    Well like I said was solo. So there was an EB and to make killing him faster walked to him through a few mobs to flood AoG, didn't really noticed that some of the mobs didn't follow but when I got to him he wouldn't attack me which I guess can't really be exploited but seems weird.


    Now its just an easy way for solo people to bypass annoying things, like I could go to the hive and grab 17 little low lv DE and just walk past all the monsters or even hami if he spawned after I grab them.


    This also makes me feel less Tanky.

    well at least I am not crazy. I just thought aggro cap was max to how many you could get to stay on you.


    So whats the reason behind this from the mob point point of view?

    Random Thug: "look its a hero lets go teach him a lesson"

    Random Thug 2: "Yeah beating up citizens is boring"

    Random Thug: "Wait he already has 16 guys following him lets pretend like he is not there"

    Yeah same thing with me that is why I asked and just really started getting used to these forums this year.

    Aggro Bug?

    I noticed something on one of my tanks I didn't see before I17 so assuming its part of it but it doesn't make much sense to me.

    So anyways before I17 I could gather up huge mobs but when it got above 16 they would get peeled off on team-mates. Which solo is not a big deal.

    So yesterday I did a few solo missions and once I got 16 guys aggroed then something weird happened.....everything else just ignored me. I mean completely ignored me like taunt didn't get them to turn my way.

    Disagree, go try a fire/fire. Build up + fiery embrace = big numbers
    Whilst shield is nice I dont think its the most damaging.


    How about an SD/Fire tank? huh? and even then /fire's biggest AoE in damage ends up at about 1/2 Shield charges damage making it fall behind say an SD/Elec in damage.

    oh I have 642, hooray.


    "#2. No. The amount of "Rep power" is decided by a combination of your forum registration date, your number of posts, and your current reputation status."

    What about: Awesomeness of Avatar and Size of sig? those effect it to right? Should be more modest sig equals more rep power otherwise I have to get myself a sig pic.

    Questions:

    #1: any way I can track ups or downs?

    #2: does everyone effect others rep equally?

    #3: what does each rep bar equal in rep?

    and most important

    Where did I get all this rep? last time I looked it was gray.
