The MM in my sig was paired up with a broadsword and board melee type...not sure what AT he was, but he was still pretty much at full health by time I got the projectors destroyed.


also...any ideas for taking out 8 Necro/DM's? Even at LT's they wasted me


Furio--Lvl 50+3 Fire/Fire/Fire Blaster, Virtue
Megadeth--Lvl 50+3 Necro/DM/Soul MM, Virtue
Veriandros--Lvl 50+3 Crab Soldier, Virtue

On my fire/rad corr, my flawed clone was a Ninjas/psi blast mastermind. She held out long enough for me to get almost all the traps, and then died.

With my MA/Nin Stalker my clone turned out to be a Bots/Storm MM. My clone basically took out Ajax by himself. I think I managed to get one hit in before he died.


With my DM/FA Brute my clone was a Shield/Devices Tanker? He was using the Shield Defense powers, Targeting Drone, Web Grenade, Smoke Grenade, and Taser Dart. No, not Taser from the Devices set, but the Tech origin power as his only damaging attack. He was pretty useless.

My first Flawed Clone was Stone Armour / Bane Spider Mace.
Lemme tell you, that's actually a really remarkable combo! Didn't just hold her own with Ajax, she also aggro'd all the Wyvern and stood toe-to-toe with them while I sat back and watched.

My latest one was Dark Blast / Martial Arts. Face-planted in less than 30 seconds.

I flashback'd the arcs last night on my Night Widow. My flawed clone was Invulnerability, and some other defensive set. Willpower, I think. She... stood around. It was stupidly funny.

Fighting all eight of myself took the close to half an hour, I think. Why? Because Smoke Grenade has a minute duration, and I got slammed with multiple applications. Also, Elude lasts way too long.

Still, I managed to solo myself, eight times over. I died twice at the get-go, but I didn't manage to score a kill either time, so it still counts, right?

I just want to know when my girlfriend's elec stalker learned a long range elec blast attack at level 20 something without her even knowing. I'm referring, of course, to the "Perfect Clone".

So did mine. How interesting...

Funniest so far was clone of my Claws/WP Brute.

She was Dark armor/mind control. Looked more like fluffy, but kept Ajax mezzed almost all the time.

When Ajax became vulnerable, didn't took long to finish him

Increasingly irritated with the people that are referencing helpful clones.

Not really. More like looking at my Dog-flavored gumball why everyone else got "Vanilla", "Strawberry", and "Concentrated taste-bud oriented summation of what your first time would have been like if it was with that really hot person from chemistry class".

I want to reiterate that my clone had two defensive powersets. Or, in in-game terms, my clone was too stupid to swing its arms. It could walk... and that was it.

While, yeah, I laughed at it, I laugh at Johnny Knoxville, too, for basically the same reason. If I weren't laughing, I'd have to recognize how utterly pathetic it was.

Man, I'd TOTALLY want to play as an Invulnerability / Willpower Villain! I could survive ANYTHING and take Aggro like nobody's business!

I have yet to do those missions outside of helping friends with them.

I didn't see my own Flawed Clone, if one was there. (If one --was-- there, it died pretty quick) But I did see a Fire Melee Brute get a Broadsword something or other.

Army of Me was fun. I was helping a sonic/storm. (I was on a Demons/Dark Mastermind, which would have been... messy...)

Holy crap were we knocked around a lot though...

Mine didn't resemble anything. I know it did a lot of damage, but it looked like a black amorphous blob with purple rings radiating out of it. Maybe Dark Armour?

Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

The two worst armies I have seen so far were 8 Pistols/Rad Corruptors and 8 Rad/Devices* Corruptors. The latter was the worst of those two.

*Apparently Traps is STILL not an option for NPCs aside from Hollowpoint and Double-Tap.

Demons/Thermal MM, with a Flawed Clone of Energy Assault/Fiery Aura. At least it had the FA PBAoE DoT toggle, even if it seemed particularly squishy. I had to drop heals on her a few times.

Yeah but he can Brawl people to death like nobody's business.

Incoming Damage = 80 + 100 + 50

Outgoing damage = 1

repeat until they give up and go away out of sheer disgust or collapse in heap of futile rage.

Ah, but don't forget Veteran Reward Attacks, Origin-Specific Attacks, and potentially Temporary/Craftable attacks!

And really, if we COULD make enemies eventually give up in a futility induced rage, that would make it allllll the sweeter.

i couldn't tell you what my clone was. I never saw it. I ran the arc twice through ouro now, and my clone only showed up in the first mission to run away. After that, each mission was a clone of a different party member.


 

Posted

Bots/FF character, with a Dual Pistols/Trick Arrow Flawed Clone. He did quite well as I recall, and survived quite happily as I wandered around trashing the glowies.


 

Posted

Mine was Fire Control/Invulnerability as opposed to my DM/DA. He happily tanked Ajax while I took out he projectors. He still had 2/3 health when I'd finished and was gleefully setting Ajax's nostril hair on fire.

Ran it on my friend's and and he was a MA/Nin Stalker. We popped some yellows and lucks with not much of an issue.

Mine is a Fire/Energy Dominator so I tagged Domination and carried some Break Free and Respite inspirations.

Just ran it last night with my Mind/Thorn Dom and he was a thermal something. Shielded and buffed me nicely but Ajax whooped him good. Ajax was at 100% health when he bumrushed me. I whipped out Telekinesis to keep him at bay long enough for me to take down the 4th glowie. Clicked domination as it blew up and confused the bejeebus out of Ajax.

Has anyone stayed in the mission AFTER Ajax goes down? I had at minimum 10-15 ambushes of three Wyvens. It was crazy. Not hard mind you, but it felt like free xp. Didn't think they were going to end.
