Lol !
I wonder if they have support group that helps AVs get over the emotional trauma that happens when they meet a scrapper?
Congrats.
Very cute
I liked this part:
"Chimera: Oh fantastic, another lethal-resistant scrapper. Why did I have to roll a lethal damage primary?
Chimera: You know, Mother Mayhem never has to deal with this."
Chimera: No, I didn't have room for it in my build. I wanted the bow attacks.
Chimera: Concept reasons.
Priceless.
the funny thing of this is the bow attacks...i fought chimera on my fire/sr, talking to a friend of mine prior to this saying im so gonna get my blank handed to me like with my claws/sr(no aid self btw).
so i get to chimera and guess what...not a single melee attack was used. only bow.

Nice one. I love stuff like this, written from the other side I remember back in EQ a few ones like this, where raid targets talking among themselfes, looking at the players.
That was funny.

This title is misleading. Chimera received help from a lot of mobs on the map. He made no attempt to solo the scrapper.
Yes, that occurred to me after I posted it...
Still, he didn't get any help from other archvillains, anyway.
After spending ALL day at the doctors this made me feel better.I LOL reading from start to finish.
Thank you

Given the life expectancy of a mob on the map, I'm pretty sure they count as temporary powers for Chimera. Does soloing with temps really count as soloing? Let the age-old debate begin again!

Nerf AV temp powers?
I found myself feeling bad for Chimera. Is that wrong?
Awesome Post OP! Thanks for the chuckle.
The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.

You should feel bad for Malaise. Read what I found in his outbox.
A letter of discontent.
I honestly don't know what to say anymore. Each and everyday I have to read about how dangerous an AV is. I'm supposed to be feared, approached with full caution and only by a full group of experienced heroes. Up until the last few months I would have said this was the case but now it's a flat out lie. I get tired of these heroes looking for 'builds' on soloing us Archvillains. The mere fact that there is ONE such build is an insult to me and my colleagues prowess let alone multiple varieties. Now there's talk of even the tankers putting together builds to take us head on without any support whatsoever. Frankly this is just out of hand and needs to stop as soon as possible. It's reached the point where some of us (Chimera) cannot defeat a lone scrapper, even including a whole map full of minions for support against said scrapper. Yet you give those 'heroes' temporary powers as well. And why are they called heroes. Braggarts is a more appropriate name, seeing how they like to point out how in only takes them a few minutes to defeat us. It only takes me a few minutes to drive from my house to the server. Are these 'heroes'trying to say that defeating an AV is no harder than driving a few minutes. Honestly, I can't stand these [censored] good for nothing [censored] [censored] little mother[censored]. Oh yeah, they're real heroes alright, defeating us over and over and over again, respecing for more difficult builds since obviously us AV's aren't the challenge anymore.
How is this fair? You can't answer this can you? But I bet you just don't care. This has been going on for so long that most of us just accept it. I wouldn't be surprised if the next time someone defeats Shadowhunter, it's because he decided to chase a fire engine and left the map rather than stay and fight. I really worry about him sometimes.
And the purple patch is the biggest load of [censored] ever!. All it does is give us this false confidence, thinking that you the devs are on our side but you still give scrappers so many tools to work around it.
My hope is that you read this and take heart of the current situation and do something about it or else I'll be moving to CO. I hear the devs there know how to treat their arch-nemeses.
Priceless.
I fought Chimera with my BS/Inv earlier, and I was thinking what this must look like from the other side...
Chimera: Okay guys, he's zoning in. Now remember, his mission objective is to kill me, so all we have to do is keep me alive. Think we can handle that?
Co-ca-trice: np
koka thrice: but how we have no heals
Chimera: Well, I keep trying to tell Tyrant we need to recruit some support, but you know he doesn't listen to me.
basil isk: lol ur just a sack of hit points rite?
Gore Gone: Yeah, like he can get through your regen.
(Several minutes pass.)
ba sellisk: hey boss he's not killing us just kind of running around and hitting a few groups
Chimera: Well good, follow him! Gang up on him!
Chimera: Never mind, he's coming to me now.
Chimera: Well, gang up on him anyway!
(Chimera attacks, dealing a small portion of the scrapper's life bar.)
Chimera: Oh fantastic, another lethal-resistant scrapper. Why did I have to roll a lethal damage primary?
Chimera: You know, Mother Mayhem never has to deal with this.
(Chimera lands a few more hits as his minions close in on the scrapper.)
gorgg awn: lol he's dying
(Dull Pain!)
Chimera: He has a self heal? This is going to be an annoying fight.
Chimera: I hope it's not slotted for recharge, those enhancement things are bull. Totally unfair.
(A few minutes pass, with little damage being dealt besides the DoT from many caltrops.)
Chimera: Wait, I thought this guy was resist-based? Why can't I hit him?
Chimera: Oh, I get it. Guys, see those rays of light coming out of him? That's Invincibility.
Co-ca-trice: he's invincible? hax
koka thrice: wtf, I quit
Chimera: No no, he can be damaged.
koka thrice: nm I take it back
Chimera: But my point is that he's getting a defense bonus from being in melee with us.
Chimera: I need you guys to back away.
gorgg awn: but then we can't attack
Chimera: So use your wussy little throwing stars.
gorgg awn: but they're wussy
gorgg awn: it's better for us to melee him
Chimera: No, listen to me.
basil isk: lol /ignore chimera
Chimera: Oh, forget it.
(Several minutes pass.)
Chimera: This is ridiculous!
ba sellisk: yarly
Chimera: He gets high resist, high defense, and a self heal? Come on, how is that fair?
Gore Gone: Can't you use Build Up to hit him?
Chimera: No, I didn't have room for it in my build. I wanted the bow attacks.
Chimera: Concept reasons.
Gore Gone: Well you should get BU.
Chimera: Yeah, I might respec after this.
Chimera: You know, if this fight ever ends. Shouldn't he be dead by now?
gorgg awn: he regens faster than we hit him
gorgg awn: and he has that stupid big self heal
gorgg awn: when you hit him
Chimera: I'm at 1/4 hp, this isn't going well.
Chimera: I need to get away and regen for a bit, but I'm backed into a corner. Can you guys move a little so I can get away?
(Nothing happens.)
Chimera: Well now I'm dead. Thanks guys.
koka thrice: oh sry wuznt watching chat lol
[SuperGroup]Chimera: Can someone help me with my build? I want to be able to solo scrappers.
[SuperGroup]Marauder: As an archvillain? Ha! Good luck with that.
(Thanks for the advice on my build, Scrapper forum! )
