Can a human-form Warshade handle a +4x8 Arachnos mob?
Since we're examining HumanShade builds, here's what I'm considering respeccing to.
I originally built for ranged defense on a reasonable budget, which is why I have no purples/perma-Eclipse. Messing with Mid's today I bumped it up to softcap ranged defense and 34.4% AoE defense, at the expense of Aid Self, Resuscitate, and Stygian Return. I don't expect to be able to afford a high-recharge build anytime soon, but I already have most the sets for this.

Be well, people of CoH.
So I took your challenge to heart AlienOne. Although I haven't tried it with a defender yet, here are the results with my fortunata:
+4/x8 Arachnos with bosses
no temps
no inspirations
no click accolades
no spawn splitting

Please note this isn't meant as a 'one-up'. I just saw the challenge you gave and it sounded like fun
I may try on my defender later, but I suspect it will be a lot harder.
Kahlan, Nice.
Debtlover, what was the bet?

I assume you softcapped your ranged defenses? It seemed you were attempting to get them to *always* used their ranged attacks...
I'd LOVE to see that with a Defender... I wish my TA/Archery could do something like that, but I don't believe that TA is strong enough to handle +4x8...

76 characters and Twenty-four 50s later, I still love this game.

Hmm i should try it on my defender. Would you accept screens since i dont have the ability to record? Something about this harddrive that makes fraps lag, never got wegame to start so havent tried that.
Got a suspicion that the lack of aoe after the initial trip mine will get the better of me.
Yeah, screens are fine, especially if you're hitting them randomly during the fight so you can post "the progression"... An "I'm done" screen with 1 dead arachnos in the background is a lot harder to believe than a 10-screenshot progression of how the fight went... XD

wth i jsut put on +4/8 an got an arachnos paper and they are killing each other. some mobs are eb´s
Oh seems arachnos heavies have spawned in the mission and they dont like the other rachnos
Be well, people of CoH.
I gave it 5 tries, the second one was the best. Eventually the defense debuffs and their higher tohitchance got the better of me. Gave me some ideas for the tankfenderish build i´m going to make when i´m done with this one.
Ran the Khan TF last night with Debt's WS. Not only did he off-tank the entire thing, but stealthed a couple of the mishes as well.
Now I'm pretty new to the world of the WS (almost 50...), having been a PB-lover but I was impressed as hell at what he laid down last night. Now I'm gonna finish leveling this WS in anticaption, rather than to complete my blue-side 50s set
Stupid time for eclipse to drop while lagging and getting footstomped AND lightning striked from reichsman
