i dont mean to sound funny, but this is probably the most useless promotion ive heard in a while, feel free to correct me with some actual points on this, but i dont think its much use, 1 free month for us Europeans since we cant get the 12 month deal is pretty pathetic.
i can see alot of people jumping on the hate wagon after this comment but i call it as it is, so feel free to give your opinions, but i certainly wont be taking the "opportunity" for this "super speed deal". -
Quote:Lol man people are just giving you a hard time because you are so sure of autumnal with very little reason for for it. If autumnal comes out and its not a rehash of fire/ice/dual blades that would be great. Maybe instead of rain of fire they will get rain of leaves. Maybe we will get a power that turns an npc costume brown before doing knockdown. Maybe anything. Until the devs say more you shouldn't get too Hung up on it.
If you are right I will give you an e-high five for your ability to read the devs minds, but until then I will call this set idea silly.
thats fair enough, thats ur opinion, and i will be waiting for the e-high five too -
Quote:There's no point in getting your knickers in a twist. Just put it down to experience or lack thereof. Yes, Dark Control is coming but, even though I do not want it, Autumnal Control could still be something planned for the future as a paid set. Dark Control doesn't really fit the hint about it seeming like one thing but actually being another, and this seems to be much more like something that was planned for i21 (Dark Blast and Dark Manipulation for Blasters) but was pushed back because of timing and lack of resources. It's quite possible that Dark Assault had been sitting there ready for release but they were waiting for Dark Control to be released because it's completely new and would break the set parity that has been established for Dominators.
thanks snowzone appreciate the message.
i think im just dissapointed, not because its not autumnal, but because i can see this dark set as being a mix and port set and we really are only getting it because controllers are aswell, well in some form, dark affinity.
well i wont make assumptions lol ive made too many of them, i will wait and see how this set fairs. -
melt armor is good for striping defense and resistence and i believe it is quite powerful, however, if your like a truck as you say and you have no problems watsoever, maybe you should consider getting just fireball and fire blast and get more attacks, maybe even go to the redside get the mu mastery set elec fences and elec ball for more damage.
the options are endless -
Quote:A lot of people were wrong, only one of them spent eight pages being absolutely sure they were right.
yeah and i believed it was the set, seriously alot of ppl need to grow up and get over it, at then end of the day all i did was put out a possibility and the chance for discussion, but all i heard was abuse over it on freedom fridays and on the stupid forums and it makes me wonder if its a game worth playing when u hav a bunch of ******** giving me grief, its a petty world we live in, but for a games company they shud exercise a lil more decorum since no player shud be getting **** off so called "veterans" or "experienced" players.
my verdict, the game is ******, and wats made it worse is the playerbase giving agro over lil things which makes other ppls lives a misery.
and before anyone says why dont i complain, ill give u a lil heads up, complaining to the devs is as about as useful as waiting for a new dom powerset, which the difference is um id say 2 years.
go figure. -
yeah i agree now that you guys have given valid points regarding this i can see its not wise, i dont want to sound like a kid without his rattle but its not fair on us europeans lol.
with that said, i will look to get a turn out on saturday and see what i can get.
the thing is while i apprecaite the people making the raids happen i.e cherry cupcakes, its also hard to turn up since times are different.
i willl definitly try to keep up with the americans on the server, guess a crate of red bull and relentless will do the trick :P
thanks for the input guys -
Quote:Dark is the new one. Confirmed. Couldn't be happier.
We do know, It's a thing. I believe it's in the current beta.
that was a post before they released the info to the new powerset jeez get a grip, yes i was wrong at the end of the day atleast im looking into it why dont u do urself a favor and stop being a ***** bashing on people who get things wrong, not everyone is always right! -
Hey guys, I noticed theres been hami raids on exalted and I always forget to check the forums to join up so figured that we could organise one, ive never actually run one before but would like to organise one and I feel id be up for the challenge.
I would appreciate it if alot of people could turn up as I will be recording it with fraps to post up on youtube.
I will look into the strategy in depth and will be prepared by wednesday, so everyone thats interested please sign your name up, and the AT your bringing.
The even will take place wednesday and we will meet just outside the hive at 5pm BST.
Any questions please contact me in game or via @Sypher Vendetta.
Many thanks. -
Quote:I'm kind of jazzed about it. Plus it puts those awful "Autumnal Assault" rumors to rest. I can see a very fun set with lots of slows, - to hit, and HP drains. Having Life Drain on a Dom alone would be awesome. Finally my dark/dark/soul Dom can be made... :-D
when you say rumour please use appropriate terms, when I yes me , posted about it it was a discussion regarding a POSSIBLITY, unlike people like yourself who trash me because i had an idea, which by the way was backed up with real information, so in future if you want to trash me atleast include my name. -
what would be a good idea for pvp, is say a window of opportunity say 30 minutes villains get to start an invasion and a group of heroes would be there to stop them, kinda like Turgenevs idea but invasion style, btw thanks VK for giving us this info nice to see i22 heading our way, i would assume january february time?
still, Dark Control!
btw was there any pics of this at all?
thanks again. -
-
nice idea nice use of the imagination but never will it ever be a powerset considering how many ppl could be offended by this since alot of ppl were murdered by hitler in gas chambers, it would cause uproar.

Quote:I've got a very survivable build at home, as soon as i get there i'll post it up so you can see it. Honestly it was one of the most fun climbs to 50 that I had, I'd say because of the challange presented by the endurance issues this combo provides. Not to say that it's a bad powerset combo, but you WILL... I repeat WILL have endurance issues until you hit certian land marks. Now, does this build do as much damage as a SS/FA, no... and, because the defenses are fairly sturdy, your going to find yourself hard pressed solo to get your damage bonus over 250%... and rage crash can hurt if your not careful.
I built it to solo an ITF, but I doubt it can do it completely due to the lack of damage to overcome Rommie's regen, but that was before the cim lore pets and without the help of a envenomed dagger either. Would I do another /DA? yep, definately... but -not- to solo AV with, it's to painful a haul there.
BT
wow thanks appreciate the help BT, look forward to seeing your build. -
Quote:I mostly ran Brutes for a couple years, then started flirting with Doms. Then GR hit. Then brutes got nerf-batted. I have messed around with Scrappers, and recently been trying to find a Blaster concept I liked. In trying to find a archtype to duo with my wife (who is new to the cities! yeah!) I started looking at Doms again. After some experimenting she decided on a Tank companion. But I am back to looking a Doms seriously for myself.
So, my Dom experience. My first was a Grav/Nrg Dom on a slow server. Got to about 30. This was about 3 years ago. Then about a year after that I gave Doms a really serious look. Leveled 10, all at the same time to around low 20s. That helped a lot in understanding some of the mechanics/tactics. Then, again, took the Grav/Nrg further. this time got to around 40ish. About 10 months ago I quick 50d a Dom (gotta love PLing these days!) and Purp'd Perma'd him. Guess what build? Right, Grav/Nrg.
So, I have been on an Ice kick recently. I started a Ice/Ice Dom. I have two question really. 1) Should I expect more love from teammates for an Ice/Ice Dom than I got with a Grav/Nrg? 2) How does Ice/Ice play different at high levels from Grav/Nrg?
while ice sounds like a good choice, i would prefer a more personal touch and plant/energy has got to be one of the best dom sets i have played, in my experience an amazing pvp set and pve set, drop seeds of confusion after domination, carrion creepers next, then fire ball from fire mastery, whirling hands drop vines, and pick off the rest with a lethal ST attack chain.
i personally put the achilles heel chance for debuff in fly trap and it does wonders.
perma dom with this is a beast plus power boost will boost ur defenses if its good enough including pretty much everything else, i quite like it and it fits to my playstyle, i have one tricked out n hes monsterous.
from what i heard about grav it seems it has some unresolved issues so i would personally just leave it for now.
ice is a good set too if you pair it with fire assault it could be nasty damage and mitigation from some ice dom powers. -
thanks blue centurion, i will look into it in more detail.
-
Quote:The attack in Gravity is super slow and the dimensional shift power is hated by most. Force Field powers outside of the main 3 shields are very situational and are easily skippable.
thanks for the explanation Jay.
now i understand the reasoning to some sets are better left alone lol. -
Quote:Gravity. Force Fields. But yeah, amongst the Real Boys, no set sucks.
Gravity i like but never got one to 50 so i didnt notice anything good or bad just a thematically cool set, never touched force fields in my life so no comment, poison needs work even after the venemous gas changes.
i probably would have to agree to your comment Talon if you could explain your experiences or views regarding said sets. -
whoever said dark armor sucks was wrong, nice video, i just like to point out that no set in the game sucks at all, all of them have their own unique way, its just a matter of preference and all can have their potential found with a bit of time and consideration, i personally love dark now that ive seen this video and plan to make a dark/ss brute with fire mastery app.
-
So i read up on Dechs Kaisons thread regarding Dark Armor.
i wanna make one really bad now lol but my main concern is survivability, so i wanna know *if* its possible to softcap positional or specific damage types on a dark armor brute?
my theme is a DA/SS/FM.
i been tinkering with mids and i just cant get good enough defense or survivability.
i know im doing something wrong so anyone got any ideas or builds they can share with me.
appreciate all the feedback thank you. -
Quote:Autumn... how is that even a powerset name is beyond me. If they choose the name "Autumnal" for a Fire/Ice dual wield set, then I'll be totally shocked. They may as well call it "Four Season" with Fire/Ice/Electricity/Wind (lethal damage). LOL
Please don't make a Autumn set dev. It's just a mix of fire/ice blasts and dual blade that we've already seen.
not to come across rude in anyway but how could you even say that?
your assumption of a set we have no new information is pretty ignorant since all ive heard is "its a mix between ice and fire, oh its a dual blade type set" seriously give me a break man.
what happens in autumn? hmm? a mix of nasty weather springs to mind, like tornados ( in extreme circumstances) co0ld weather, lightning thunder storms, a big bag mix of possibly extreme weather conditions.
so before people start saying the same bag of nonesense as explained above please just think about the set, or even if it is the new set at all.
i personally wouldnt mind dark assault and dark control since it can be overpowering. -

Quote:Hello fellow Domsters, I need build help on this toon! I can't seem to stop thinking about making this dom and I having a hard time figuring out what I need to make this build work!
I like to try all the secondaries when it comes to dominators and Energy is the last one on the list. Since I'm not a huge fan of Knock back I chose Plant as a primary. Plant is not only great for damage and mitigation (and it's my favorite control set in the game) but the pet throws out roots just as often as I do. So it would be almost impossible for me to send mobs flying across the galaxy due to all the immobs from me spamming roots, Fly Trap spamming roots and last but not least Carrion Creepers with it's immob patch.
I'm also locked into Primal Mastery because...
1) Energy Assault has a very Hybrid Ranged/Melee feel but bone smasher, Total Focus, Whirling Hands and Power Burst make you want to get in there and Blap it out!
2) I've always wanted an excuse to take that set and I love Energy Transfer(non kb), Energy Torrent, and Explosive Blast...just Ironically I hate KB :/.
3) I would normally take Ice Mastery but I love the fact that with Primal I can Take down a Boss with Energy Transfer, Bone Smasher and Total Focus but also handle big mobs with Energy Torrent and Explosive Blast.
THE REAL QUESTION (finally!)
Since I'm forced to take Temp Invulnerability should I not worry about going for a Dom that is defense built? Should I focus more on Recharge and treat Seeds and Carrion Creepers as my defense? (example: kill them before they kill you)
Even after Level Bumping this toon and playing around with his build I'm having issues (and MAN is he hard on end!).
Here's the build that I am leaning towards. I didn't slot it because I just wanted to give you a general Idea of what I wanted to do with the Toon.

maybe so to alot of ppl but no doubt they are planning something.
i live in the uk but my friend lives in the usa and he pretty much gets the info asking around, he may be wrong and indeed it is just a rumour to most, but im hoping hes right.
