I'm going to try to be there, Luc.

Good post USCI.
And good badge hunts we had!
I plan on playing also as much as I can and hopefully I will see some of you in game!
I have no bad memory of CoH, which I find incredibly weird. Every time I logged, friends were there and good times were had, no matter how short they were. That is testament to the great community we form.
Santé! -
Farewell, Jaden.
Hope you keep your epic trolling skills wherever you settle -
Love you too, Atomic. Thanks for organizing all those runs for all of us OCD types on Freedumb!
-
Farewell, Duncan.
the entire Jaded family, as well as I am sure the community as a whole will miss you.
Always a good friend, a good cheer, no matter the circumstances.
You were the embodiment of a hero.
Thank you Dark_Respite for undertaking that memorial video task. I am sure it will do all of those who have left us too soon great justice. -
I have built my Ice/Dark/Psi dom under the same premise as DarkCurrent (vigor/cognitive/barrier/control) and it is indeed a ton of fun (I get more mileage off Vigor due to the heal portion). Didn't heavy proc AA but I can understand why he did so.
Just because some playstyles work however doesn't mean the set is 100% fine
@Miladys_Knight: Vigor Radial Paragon also provides sleep and fear duration in addition to confuse/acc/end/heal, making it a good fit for your playstyle as well. -
If you are on the fence between nerve and musculature, go with Intuition Radial.
It boosts dmg and holds plus has some side effects dark can use (to hit debuffs, range)
That Alpha seems to have been designed for doms that do not need/want extra recharge or endurance and want to play to the strength of the AT (damage and holds), yet it is almost never mentioned in dom conversations for some reason that escapes me. -
I have both:
An Icelandic princess (Snowflake Python - Ice/SS tank) who does have some sort of powersuit and a zoomorph vigilante (sabertooth tiger) (Tigris Borealis - StJ/Ice stalker)
I think each has its own advantages:
The set for stalkers is really amazing due to Icy Bastion and the lack of Icicles (personal taste, I despise that power look). The -dmg is a good mitigation for Stalkers too due to lower HP.
However, due to the pairing with SS, Ice for tankers works well because of Hibernate in case things get really dicey. SS would be better if the slab on concrete could be tinted so it looks like a slab of ice but you can't get everything you want I guess.
Finally, on a tank you can get to really good HP (currently am at 3106 on mine) which mitigates the def crash without the need to perma Hoarfrost (the stalker will be at 2K HP with Hoarfrost, but won't have the emergency heal available)
In any event, there is no wrong choice and you will have situations where your defense feels useless whether rage crashed or not -
Here's the build I play. I Have a lot of fun with it. If you really dislike Entangling Arrow, you can put Fistful in its stead and by upping the + counts in Hasten still be perma hastened

Water/Poison. Sulking Platypus.
The gods had fun creating him, now it's time for them to learn what humilitation tastes like! -
I am not on test but I believe all new content that will be featured through the Paragon Market on Live needs to be "bought" from the test server's Paragon Market. You should have unlimited PP on test for that purpose.
It is done so that the devs know whether or not the purchase on live will behave as expected. -
It all boils down to being able to communicate properly in my opinion.
- You may not run trials like everyone else is, but that doesn't mean you are doing it wrong. However, if you are not telling everyone what you expect the league to be doing, then it's your damn fault if they are running around like headless chicken.
- If this is your first time as a leader, saying so will lessen the chance of being yelled at by half a league of grumpy people who didn't bother starting the league in the first place. -
Ack. Saturday is like the worst day for me since I run an evening social event with my company at the Con.
Maybe I'll have time to swing by for 5 mins to see the awesome CoH peeps who came to the Con. -
Congrats to everyone for the badge. it ends a year long drought for Luc and Atomic Saint on that badge. Glad to have helped you guys get it!
-
I should be able to help this time around.
Are you using incand? Or still not? -
Both sets, taken individually, are good as they offer a secondary effect not available to doms in a large amount before.
Together, they feel like extreme overkill (do the the -to hit) which is why I prefered rolling dark/psi and ice/dark as opposed to dark/dark and then something else. -
Lol @23 corrs. A bit overkill to say the least
.
Cg to everyone who got the badge! -
congrats everyone!
Do we have the full roster of the first and second league? -
Freedom finally pulled its act together.
Congrats on 2 successful runs (image will be posted in the freedom forum then here) led by @Yat Man! -
Congrats guys for getting the badge! Was unfortunately unable to join (weekend with family aggro) so in case you run again, keep me in mind!
