here's an example of put up or shut up: Freedom Phalanx downed in under 2 minutes (I don't remember when the patch went in that reduced them to lv53, so not gonna say they're lv54 like they were originally)
From Felicia's claim...she is at least putting out the DPS of 8 players and Shivans, buffed to the gills with Bio nukes against level 53/54 Heroes debuffed to hell by a series of Chem nukes, I know everyone else has said it, but I must say it to, she's full of [censored].

If you listen to the other posters if a new person were to start a mission or TF and team members left, the team and that new person would be unable to finish it, especially if the difficulty level were to high.

Most of the posters merely talked about enhancements and at a low level to a new person this will not really help them. Even at mid-level enhancements will not help as it is easy to go to fast and end up with missions that are too difficult. With some builds Psi/Emp for example all the other advice given would not help. My advice will allow them to go up in level and enjoy the missions without even enhancing.
The point is to help new people and the OP, flooding this thread with non-sense (which i expect you will do anyways) is not helpful.

You. Are. Full. Of. [censored].
It is not possible for one character of any powerset/AT, no matter how well IOed, no matter how many of the temp pets, despite having nukes, to take down Rommie in under 13 seconds, and repeat 3 times. (No, not 15 seconds, each rez takes time to go off, you don't even get your full 15 seconds of attacking. Not to mention time to duck out of LoS to avoid the autohit stun and regen nullification.) And if you don't duck out of LoS, you will get eaten alive by Rommie, as would your pets, because you are suddenly unable to regen HP, and knocked for a loop for the next 12 seconds, unable to do *anything*.

Sorry if you expect me to believe you're doing Blaster level damage with Dark Blast. Your "calculated damage" has been debunked already. But I guess you get off on attention.
No worries though, I'll wait till you come in here claiming you defeated Reichsman solo in a minute 
Just as you dismiss the facts given throughout this thread, we can justly dismiss your claims you cannot back up.
Arcanaville's presence in this thread makes it worth it though, she's pretty much the ultimate numbers person on this forum and I'm betting right now she's shaking her head in disgust of the blatant lies you're spouting or just laughing at the idiocy of it all

See Felecia, this post is a little better. No unnecessary self proclamation of greatness, no unnecessary bragging, no unnecessary self promotion. Had your original post in this thread been like this, your credibility would have not suffered as much.
I still have to disagree with the idea of teaching new players that they don't need to enhance. I can agree that for the first eleven levels, (the Trainer Enhancements levels), enhancements are not all that helpful. DOs and SOs however, do make a significant difference.
I still contend that the low accuracy and damage of running with empty slots throughout the levels would be frustrating enough for the new player that it would very likely turn them off the game.

Personally, (and I know this is not going to be a popular idea) I think you should reroll, and start from scratch. Play each level with actual game content and NO AE. This will help you learn how to use your powers, and figure what kind of circumstances work best for what kind of attacks, and what enhancements to buy. There are stores to buy enhancements other then Wentworths. Some are origin specific meaning they sell enhancements specifically for your origin.
[/ QUOTE ]
Or do the AE content instead of "actual game content," because if it's in the game, it's now "game content." BUT yhu would need to do it differently.
The AE is not inherently evil and there is nothing wrong with doing AE missions. Doing AE missions isn't the problem. The problem is doing them exclusively to level quickly, not training as you level, and not slotting (including FILLING said slots) and playing with your new powers as you go. Teaming with people only doing AE missions and letting you go along for the ride without pulling your own weight is also part of the problem. (And if you teamed with anyone, you were clearly not pulling your own weight becase now you're getting you butt handed to you by Tsoo, which max out 20 levels beneath you.)
Anyone you teamed with probably thought they were being helpful, but they did you a disservice. Find some teammates who allow you to be challenged and teach you how to rise up to those challenges.
I've been playing the AE missions on only my level 50 characters and there are a lot of really good and fun missions in there - some I did last night rival anything the Devs have published. Please don't assume the problem issues directly from the AE or even the AE content. It's not all farm missions and some people, myself included, have put a lot of time and effort into actual story arcs and missions. Last night I played @Wrong Number's Have a Blap, Blap, Blappy Day Kids! arc and @fuzon's A Day in the Life of...Dr. Aeon arc. Both are creative, well-written, and a lot ot fun. I would highly recommend them to anyone, new and vet players alike. (Though I think they're both over level 25.)
[/ QUOTE ]
I have to agree that AE is not all evil. There are many folks out there who do put effort into actual stories and not farms. It would be horribly unfair to them to suggest AE should be entirely avoided.
However, I do believe that the new player should run regular content for the sake of learning. Currently, the problem with new players and AE is that it is difficult to find a team that is not farming. I'm not saying there are no teams that don't farm, just that the overwhelming number of teams in AE are farming.
Farming is counter intuitive to learning, case in point, the original post in this thread. It would serve the new player better to run regular content over AE to avoid the farm teams, so they can learn what they need to learn. Once they have the hang of it, then by all means head to AE.

You're probably doing the same thing I did to get my Corr her HeroSlayer Badge. She's waaay to squishy to take on Infernal AND Behemoths; solo at equivalent level.
So, I picked up the mission at level 32 but didn't bother to enter and complete until I hit level 37; a green conning EB is tons easier and more quickly defeated.
TFs can be accomplished in a similar manner; make the mission active, map sweep/street sweep until you are at X desired levels above your target... then drop him like a carton of eggs.

I said Rommy can be done in 60 seconds, since he rezzes you have to defeat him 4 times.....so divide 60 by 4 you get 15 seconds to kill him the first time (not all 4 times).
[/ QUOTE ]Video or it didn't happen, because it is impossible. You can not take him down 4 times in less than 15 seconds. And it would have to be less than 15, because his rez goes off and animates in about 5 seconds. Therefore you only have 45 seconds to take him down within 1 minute.
[/ QUOTE ]
I'm with you. It's impossible for one person to defeat him that many times in such a short period unless they were using some kind of exploit. I've never even seen a team of people do it that quickly.
Unfortunately, I was told that it's against forum rules to call someone a troll, so I wont.

I PMed her, and she definitely has a method, but posting it here toes on the line between sharing information that's pretty much public anyway and private information from PMs that shouldn't be made public.
I sincerely doubt her method actually does go faster than 60 seconds, but from the initial looks, it looks pretty speed-efficient for soloing AVs. Let's jus say lots of Temp Powers have been involved and leave it at that. Best just take the sixty seconds as hyperbole.
aye, pretty sure it's hyperbole, a Dark/Dark/Power Defender damage capped even with a Shivan and a HVAS is no where near the amount of DPS you need, not to mention moving them out of LoS so they don't get stunned by Rommy's rez...
still don't know why she's treating it like it's some sort of huge secret...players have been soloing AVs since before "her wisdom"

And how "nice" is it to deliberately provoke people? In the real world that's called harassment. As is calling people who merely ask you to back up your claims "not smart enough".
Back on topic... AE is not "inherently evil". But it doesn't provide as much of a tutorial as the rest of the game. In the AE, one contact won't lead you to another. The contacts won't send you to other zones. They won't sell you enhancements. They won't do a lot of things which, though annoying to veterans who've seen all of that, nudge new players to go see it. That's why "regular content" is better to see first. Once you get the hang of it, sure, play AE as much as you want. What I'd love to see is the developers add some of this to the AE, so that a new player who wanders into the AE (for whatever reason) would get just as many hints to go see the rest of the game's content as a player who never sets foot in it. And, of course, non-AE content should contain hints to go see the AE as well.

The comments about street-sweeping to gain levels to make it easier to complete an old mission got me thinking. If a level 50 dark defender joined a team of 35's and exemped down to do the ITF on heroic until reaching Rommie at the end, then unexemped (everyone else logs off, etc), could it be possible for the defender to then solo-defeat Rommie all 4 times in one minute?
Although that kind of reminds me of the Seinfeld episode in which Kramer claimed to be the best in his karate class.

At 50 I think he has like 28k, I would think at 35 he'd still have around 20k. Though possibly when I solo'd a -5 EB in Madame of Mystery...it left me a bit jaded >_> she was still a pain to kill on my Invul/Fire Tank...

I burned through my green conning EB (Infernal; sans Demons) in less than 4 minutes on an lvl 37 Elec/Kin Corr. Outside of Aim and Siphon Power; I only had about a 60-65% dmg boost from slotting but a nice DPS boost from Hasten and Siphon Speed; [I was playing at lowest difficulty].
I'm sure I could've done it faster if I had better slotting, used my Apprentice Charm, used insps, picked up FoN beforehand, waited til he was a grey con, etc.
It seems that damage output is resisted less by critters spawning at a lower level than you. You miss less, etc.
So 28K at that point isn't the same as 28K at an even con.
Could I pull a 4 kill in approx 1 minute using this method; doubtful... but when adding in all of the temps and insps and accolades... I could see it happening on a well slotted; well played toon.
Could a Dark/Dark do it? Under the same principle and adding in the 2 -regen debuffs + the -res debuff; I don't see why not.
At an even con or higher, I can't call it... all I know is that I couldn't do it.

No one is saying you were claiming he could be killed 4 times in 15 seconds. They're saying you claimed he could be killed 4 times in a minute, which is 15 seconds per kill. Which is complete and utter bull pucky.Sure you can solo him, I can believe that. Sure, on a defender. No, not 4 times in 60 seconds.
And, by the way, tacking on a paragraph that's parroting advice several other posters gave to the OP way back on the first page of this thread does not make your posts any less unhelpful than those from the ones arguing with your fanciful claims of uberness.
'course, yet again, you're not going to even acknowledge me. Curious, if what you claim is possible, why is it all of the long-time powergaming theorycrafters claim it isn't? Why is it that no one, **NO ONE** has come in to back up your claim? Do you seriously expect us to believe there's some super secret that you and only you have discovered?

She won't acknowledge me, either. I don't care about this AV soloing business... I just want to know how she could confuse the Cape and Aura missions, while simultaneously claiming that they're impossible to solo at the earliest level possible, if she's so good at the game.
