What is the difference between a brute and a stalker? Is it worth it to trade high hitpoints for invisibility, when you can get invisibility out of the power pool sets with a brute anways? What else does stalker do better?

The Brute: A ten ton bowling ball on a flat stretch of road. You can push it around, but it takes a while to get the ball rolling. It damages cars and squishes yappy little dogs, but isn't all that impressive. Then you come to a slope in the road and it takes off, picking up more and more speed wiping out anyone and anything in it's path.

The Stalker: a ten ton bowling ball suspended twenty feet in the air. When someone walks underneath, BAM! Then you push it around for a little bit kinda like the brute, except there's no slope to roll down. They did however leave you the crane. You pick it up again, and BAM!

Two fun and valid playstyles, two fun AT's. The brute is rolling cloud of destruction. The stalker is the precision assassin with a ST nuke. Up to you which you like better.


They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

Wow. That may be the best way of describing it I've ever seen. Got a good laugh too. Two thumbs up.

Excuse me while I go wipe the coffee off my monitor now...

I now have a quote!!! Unfortunately, it was to long, so I had to pare it down.


Willpower has more passive regen than Regen does. Who thought that was a good idea?

Can we get a fix for Energy Melee instead of more new sets?

This thread got me really excited, then let me down.


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan.

The thing that gets me... 50% of the OP's posts are double or triple posts of the same topic, just with different subjects. Me thinks a Mod smack is in order.


pohsyb: so of all people you must be most excited about the veats
Arachnos Commander: actually, I am
pohsyb: I mean you kinda were one already anyways ^_^

It seems to be a little forum game that the OP is trying to push where people post something with a title that has nothing to do with the subject of the post, with the intention of getting people to say, "Why is there a thread in an onling gaming forum posted about a CNN reporter?" at which time they click on it, presumably out of curiosity, only to find that it is a thread exactly like the thousands of others with only its unusual title setting it apart.

This is the second time (that I know of) that the OP has done this, the first with a thread titled "Obama" that, in fact, had nothing to do with Obama. Apparently, he seems to think it is an acceptable practice, even after a moderator has edited the subject of his post once.

To the OP, you're still kind of new here, so I'll try to put this tactfully. I know you think this is cute, but 1) people here will answer your honest questions without resorting to such silliness, and 2) I don't appreciate you wasting our time like this. Post the real subject of your question and just ask it.

Also, just for your reference, when a moderator edits one of your posts and you do the exact same thing again, you're just asking to be smacked. Really, learning from your actionable mistakes is a much better plan.
