What a sick and twisted but potentially good idea for anyone willing to faceplant if they have to go afk anyway and nobody minds them being a leech.


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I thought they were being serious... and with no debt pre-10, there's a steady supply of erm ... team mates. hmm

It is a fun idea - from a combo-building persepctive. It is not so fun in actual gameplay, and (for the dead guy) the ultimate example of bot play.

I actually did this once (played the dead guy) and it was.... you guesses it... boring me to death.

Expect this to be nerfed if it becomes widespread.

That's why they use 2 computers with 2 accounts - one for the defender and the other one just for the dead player.

Have actually already got a character halfway to the same goal, glad to see I'm not the only one with the idea... for the record, rad defenders are effective enough that I do well even in teams that aren't willing to sacrifice a character

Unfending is a pretty viable tactic in PvP - there's always someone dead or close to

We were doing this a lot in a trial this evening. I was the second highest level there with my blaster.

One of the team - the Defender, no less - crashed. Failed to log back in. Uh oh!

Unless we had access to Vengeance when one of us couldn't kill the Freakshow Tank quick enough (normally me) or staright after the other blaster Nova'd (also resulting in a few bobos) - we wouldn't have been able to have the Damage Output to be taking down self reviving +2s and +3s.

We were a decent team, we weren't trying to exploit the game, only use the power to jump right back into a heated fight (despite the debt, this was the most fun I've had in a while, especially when it degenerated into swearing and insulting the Freaks) - the tank being -2 could only do so much being a Stone (although he took my Reactor Coolant Pack, since he could stand next to the core at all times, even without a sheild) while the rest of us, a couple of blasters, a mind/empath troller and a sk'd Scrapper fought like dogs at all times - even using the SG Base option straight after deaths to rush right back into Terra.

My point? Nerf if because a few sad people have 2 PCs and 2 accounts?

The Paragon Defenders are the masters of faceplanting, hence most of them took vengeance. Its not that they are good players, they are the best I have seen on defiant, its more cause they all have the attitude I can solo this group of 5+ standing very close to a 6+ group on my blaster.

well, just team with a cpl rad/rads and you'll tear through mobs like an extremly hot knife through melted butter. Had this going a cpl nights now (TC ftw!) and it was carnage. Even with me being one of the rad/rads
