Re:what you as a player call them ingame: Blasty or Blapper?


Thankyou.

I class a blapper as something different to a blaster, so although I've never heard anyone use the term "blappy" I'd have to go with that.

Have always considered the Blaster as a Blapper myself, never heard of the term Blasty?

I rarely hear the term 'Blapper' unless someone is trying to make a distinction about their Blaster's survivability, I always hear:

"I can bring a lv43 blasty"

A "Blapper" is a blaster with mostly melee attacks and plays more like a Scrapper than a Blaster.
Never used "Blasty". If anything, we use "squishy", but that also includes mostly defensless sets like defenders, controllers and firetanks.

What about "Vengy Bait"?

I'd go Blapper as well, I've never heard anyone use the term "blasty"

That's what I have always thought too. A blaster with a scrapper playstyle.

Exalted/deathless with the at logo. I would wear it since i had 5 debt badges before hitting 50. On topic i dunno, blasty gets my vote.

the only ATs i think i've ever changed were tank, MM, PB + WS maybe dom

and the arachnos ones would be arachnos soldier or widow but i haven't really needed to so i'm not even sure i uses them

if anyone thinks i've shortened ATs other than mentioned above ingame, then pics or it didn't happen

You'll have to use phrases that don't explicitly use 'Blaster'. Like a 'BLASTING MAKES ME HAPPY' one with an iPod style black figure firing a gun with tons of shell casings and muzzle flare.

Because only you and your crazy friends say 'Blasty'.

You seem to like the pain, so I'm surprised you don't call them something else. "A good night in" or something.

"Glass Cannon" is one I heard a while back and stuck in my head

But as per the two choices you gave mumsie, I would tend to lean towards Blapper

Isn't that a blanker? For the OP; blapper is what I've allways heard as the term for blasters fighting as scrappers.
