I don't think he was being snarky. If you play a defense based character you're going to be RNG'd. It won't happen often, but it is going to happen.

I made that post 4 days ago so even I don't know if I was being snarky

Just to be on the safe side I gave you some bad rep.

I'm just beginning to plan out my First Brute after having a few Scrappers. So, pardon me if my question is uninformed.

It seems as if hasten is taken quite a bit by SS. Hasten isn't always required on some */SD scrappers (at least what i've been looking at and used)

Having not played extensively on red side, doesn't only taking Super Speed as a travel power create some issues with vertical travel? Or, is this hole just provided by the temp travel powers?

I've been looking at this post for a bit and was just curious.

Thanks

It is definitely difficult traveling with only SS; but there's a Raptor Pack vendor in Grandville. You can easily get there with a lowbie, so you don't even have to do the mayhem missions for the temp travel powers if you don't want to. I bound the Raptor Pack to a key so I just leave SS on and toggle on the Raptor Pack when I need some vertical then immediately toggle it off again. It becomes second nature after a while.

If you're not familiar with keybinding you can enter a command like this:
/bind numpadenter, "powexec_name Raptor Pack"
That makes the Enter key at the bottom right of your numeric keypad toggle the Raptor Pack on and off.

Was wondering, since you said you farm tickets. Could you let me know which one/arc #. Thanks. Feel free to send it to my in-game handle @Kicking a Wasp Nest
