I'd rather have some more free server transfers over 2XP.

What server are you playing on?

Talos is a great zone to team in, lots of people in that zone interested in teaming, doing task forces and tip missions.

Join some global servers. Whichever server you're on you can do a channel search, you can sort that list to show you the most populated room and the rooms with the most people online. Join a bunch of channels, and watch for TFs and teams starting up.

If you're looking for an SG, head to Atlas and talk to the SG Register. There's an option to look at the top 100 super groups on your server. There's a description next to each one that leaders can put contact information. Some SGs are better then others but the good ones out weigh the bad.

Mids Hero Designer is an offline powerset building tool that deals with IOs, Purples and all the fun numbers. Download it and start playing around. You're gonna need money to do IOs, so sell your drops. The level range you're about to enter has some valuable salvage, and Talos has a WW right there.

Run Hero tips, the second time you confirm your Hero Alingment you'll start earning A Merits. You can save them for things you want but rolling for random recipes is so much fun. Start rolling around level 33 and see what sells. You'll end up making a fat wad of money doing this. Once you have money from selling rare recipes you can start buying IOs for yourself.

Welcome to Paragon and don't get to hung up on picking a Main. Having tons of alts in pretty normal in this game.

You should consider investing more in Ranged defense and less in AOE. I'm not trying to imply AOE isn't a hazard but the overwhelming amount of damage and mez that's going to be coming your way is going to be ranged. Going for just Ranged Def is what I feel gives the most bang for the buck when it comes to ATs that don't have Mez Protection.

Slotting Subdual with Thunderstrikes will up your DPA and raise your Ranged Def. Skipping pistols is gonna leave a gap in your attack chain. Dual Pistols has some attacks that are medium range and some that are long range. Subdual has an 80ft range so it can help fill an attack chain when getting closer isn't something you want to do at the moment. Also Posi's don't really grant all that much recharge to the power they're slotted in. AOEs aren't always going to be available to fill an attack chain.

Empty Clips is a great place for an Achillies proc.
That's a lot of knockback protection.

If you went with an Epic that had a hold in it you are going to be much stronger against bosses. If you can hold a boss and finish off his minions, you can maximize your DPS by using Lethal Ammo with Piercing Rounds for the -Res and then switching to Fire Ammo. Well you could do that at anytime, it's just a lot easier to do it to a boss if he's locked down.

Those Oblits aren't giving you any end reduction. HoB is gonna cost you 20 end to use. If you use HoB, Shockwave and have a hasten crash at the same time how much of your end bar is gonna be left? If you 4 slot Erads you get +HP, +End and ranged def. You also have 2 slots left over to use towards end reduction and other bonuses.

Thunderstrikes and BotZ don't mix all that well, they share the same Ranged Def bonus. If you ever end up with more then 5 of these sets, combined, you will be missing some Ranged Def.

A billion influence is going for less then the federal minimum wage. I'm curious to see how low that price gets, when your dealing with credit cards the closer you get to $5 being your average transaction, the bigger the percent of your monthly sales are going to the banks. I'd have to imagine the PL market must be in the toilet.

Don't even give these powers a spot on your power tray. Don't even waste an additional slot on these powers. Flip a coin, pick one of them, and then forget about it.

Its a pet on a 1 minute timer. During that minute VS will fire 10 times
It has one attack, Charged Bolts. Since its a pet defenders, and corruptors get a little more mileage out of this power. VS has the same stats for every AT.
At level 50 unslotted thats 400 pts of damage over time. Remember even though that damage is spread out over time, you don't have to attack to deal it. You keep on blasting, Vs keeps on blasting. You get mezzed VS keeps on blasting.
VS will spread those 10 shots around, so its in your best interest to lessen the number of targets as fast as you can.
If you're taking on an Lt and 2 minions, hold the Lt and arrest the 2 minions first. If there's only one target VS will only shoot that target.


Some other things about VS you should know.
It's a great Defiance boost, 20%
Cheap place to slot IOs, four slots and a couple million at most and you've got anther 7.5% recharge.
Its in excellent pulling tool. If you're a trapper it's amazing. Set up a minefield behind a corner and cast VS in line of sight of the mob. VS passes it's aggro to you, but you can use that to your advantage.

That's lame, that mission should complete as soon as the hostage dies and you should still get credit for trying. You set the dude free, and tried to help him to the door.

I don't wanna see the ambushes lessened in anyway but I wish there was a system in place, that would allow me to set my missions to spawn for certain amount of virtual teammates yet have ambushes spawn for a smaller group.

I can handle a 4 man spawn solo, they're just standing there. But a 4 man spawn ambush, that getting difficult. There's a Rogue tip where you find a glowie at the end and then you get 3 ambushes in quick succession. Longbow, then Chain and now its the PPD. That's a little ruff.

The other Rogue tip I have a hard time with, I have to take down Mangle, he's up to some evil plot involving the Wailers. When you attack Mangle he has a Wailer King and Greater Devourer ambush you. That's three bosses at once and one of them is a rezzer. At least on that tip, once you kill Mangle you can exit mission.

I'd love a Rikti Archetype, if the devs ever put it in the game I'd hope they'd follow the same model they for SoAs. New characters would start as say a Headman and at level 24 choose to be Chief Soldiers or Chief Mentalist.

This would be alot of work, I just checked out the Rikti page and Rikti have no powers. The Devs would have to make new powers and animations so a Rikti player could have a full attack chain. There aren't really any Rikti AOEs, and without AOEs this EAT would be laughed at by the spreadsheet crowd.

I'd hope there'd be story arcs, it would be nice if the pre-35 story dealt with the build up to Invasion the Rikti must have been going through before RWZ got its revamp. The 35 plus content could deal with the Restructurist and Traditionalist conflict at the same point in the timeline everyone else is starting the RWZ arcs. There would have to be missions where we rescue Faultline and Fusionette.

The trees are looking good, but Sayaki made the most amazing fireplace.

On the 29th of November,
I will be grabbin my nuts
just like Michael

I have a little spray bottle next to my computer and when I want to change the game up I spritz water onto my screen to simulate rainfall.

Thanks for the feedback. Looks like I'm gonna go Recall, TP Foe and Assault for my thre new one slot wonders.

Stacker has a 3 part video series covering this subject.

His fluorescent lamp stairways are amazing.

Oh Well I hope you hard working devs have a super awesome holiday and maybe, just maybe while you lay around after the massive feast, suffering Turkynosis, the solution to the problem will come to you.


Any plans on plugging a few of these AE exploits? Or are these just to keep running untill I19 gets released?


Before eveyone at Paragon takes off before the weekend, can one of you start a Dom bug and Kheld bug thread in the Open Beta bug section. I think giving the community a place to find just basic info about the bug would help cut down on the snipping that gonna break out on the boards between the people who don't know what the bug is (and therefore aren't gonna think it's that big of an issue) and other people who mistake people's ignorance of the problem as a sign of them being evil selfish jerks. I'm a big fan of the nerdrage that breaks out on this board, but I prefer the nerdrage sticks to things like Corporate Conspiracies and Origins.

If there's going to be a list of legendary forum posters I nominate Jranger. A man so infamous rules are in place to redistrict us from even speaking his name. Rumor his say his name three times and he'll appear.

He is a vegan.

His battlecry is "Graaaaiiiiins"

So I'm looking for some One Slot Wonders for my stalker and I'm wondering who good this power is with only an Accuracy slotted. I'm running 0/+4 and if I get to much agro at once I step back to a corner and drop caltrops. Hopefully in a way that splits the mob up so a good chunk of them are on the opposite side of the trops. There are times though when everyone is on the other side of trops. How reliable is Teleport Foe with only one acc slotted at grabbing an LT?

Eng/Storm is the way to go.

Gale gives you the hammer, Power Push gives you the scalpel.
