Mike Jatczak is a mostly unpublished writer from the abyss known as Detroit, Michigan. He is the world's foremost expert in the Dark Melee/Dark Armor Scrappers in the City of Heroes MMORPG, soloing three separate characters to level 50.

This came up in a thread about an unofficial CoH guide in the Player Questions section here: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=225186. I think it's funny and I wanted to share.

I wonder if that was the guy from the scrapper forums that wrote the DM/DA Bible ? The_gamemaster have not seen him post in forever.

I wouldn't have posted that link if it weren't because then I could not be certain it was really him. And it wouldn't have been funny.

Yeah, pretty bold calling yourself the "world's foremost expert." L-O-L!

I'd love to see him post a build here. Or even dispense advice.

Fury Flechette · 06-09-2010 01:44 PM

Is this him? Dark_Mike?

Guide was written back in issue 7.

Rieze · 06-09-2010 01:47 PM

He wouldn't post here. He knows he would get run out of here. Trying to make money off of stuff people do for free. The worst part is that... actually, that is the worst part. Shameful

You're thinking of The_Gamemaster, I think. I'm pretty sure the guy referenced here is *not* that person.

He leveled 3 DM/DA scrappers without kb protection? All of his builds don't have acrobatics. Wow, standards for builds have certainly changed. To be fair, I'm sure the author would build differently today.

Yes some of that is outdated a lot of changes from the game since the time he played those toons the guide was pre IO's

In fact I started one back in I2 before Dark Armor could even stack, then we had where the tohit buff was like 35% in COF and it was a mag 3 hold and the acc was like 95%

Then DM went through the Buzz saw era which was nerfed with the animation change (that was an accident) but it led to a siphon life buff

Im glad someone mentioned The_gamemaster; Desmodos deserves a lot of credit as well - both have made great contributions.

I was trying to decide which was worse...

selling an old, outdated guide for $30 or putting in on your resume.

I'm going with the resume.

Definitely the resume--though he should've stuck with:

"WORLD'S FOREMOST AUTHORITY ON DM/DA SCRAPPERS"
