MFing Peacebringer Guide?
Only thing i can think of is the MFing Warshade guide.. with Deux should most here shortly
Hmm, time shadow has a newish pb guide and I think Memphis Bill has one too. You might want to just wait till the pb changes in I21 hit, as that will most certainly be followed by some updated guides.
The Inspiration Maker's Guide [i12] UPDATED with POPMENUS and Movement Binds!
A Flash in the Dark: The Electric/Ninjitsu Stalker [i23]
Kheldian Inspiration Macros UPDATED with POPMENUS and Movement Binds!
Guide to the Katana~Ninja Blade/Electric [i23]
Mine:
Raising a Peacebringer.
Also, if interested, Kheldian backstory, should you be interested in lore.
Hope they help.
It's hard to be a MFing Peacebringer when your powers are designed to be self-defeating rather than self-reinforcing.

Thank you all.
Was trying to find a guide for a returning friend who has a L34, I think, Tri-form, but who had been gone for about 3 years and doesn't know where, or how, to properly slot anymore. I did mention the i21 changes, so we may hold off for that little wait.
Thank you all again.

Seriously, what was the point of posting that? Don't like them, don't play them. If all you can do is complain about them, don't play them. I can't stand Illusion control, I don't go into the Controller forums and whine every single time Illusion is mentioned.

Bill's guide is good and a great resource. Some of the info is going to become dated when i21 hits but I am sure he will have an update out fairly quickly once everything from the VIP beta is final

I found one a while back and now my Search-Fu has ceased working. There was a guide that was put together that covered the various build possibilities of Peacebringers and I was wondering whose it was and where I might be able to find it. Sorry for such a silly request, but I do appreciate any and all help.

While builds are definitely outdated, the descriptions of powers break down is still spot on. It might be from I8, but its the best out there. Much of which is described there is still apt now.
I started writing one out for a Human Form PB using Timeshadow's and Dechs' guides as references but I just have never had the time to do much. Plus I am still tweaking my own toon with the Incarnate powers.

Ouch. That's a bit harsh.
PB's have a place... While all you radical "psycho" Shades are out there doing crazy
things (and sometimes paying the ultimate price for them)
![Wink](images/smilies/wink.gif)
are steadily and consistently carrying the mail...
Sure, we don't generally make the Headlines, but that's part of the point.
Might I remind you, that *we* didn't invent any insane, life-sucking, stealing powers.
We are the steadying influence that has helped you former Nictus' (Nictii?)
become helpful and relevant members of society.
We're largely unsung, but we get the job done consistently and effectively,
without all the crowing and back-slapping...

RP style of rebuke...

I've been rich, and I've been poor. Rich is definitely better.
Light is faster than sound - that's why some people look smart until they speak.
For every seller who leaves the market dirty stinkin' rich,
there's a buyer who leaves the market dirty stinkin' IOed. - Obitus.
Seriously. That kind of crap isn't needed. Knock it off. We get it, you and your spreadsheet don't like PBs. Fine. Don't play them and leave it at that.
Haha, I was just making a joke. I really like my Peacebringer too.
Well, after all the doom and gloom here and in closed/open beta about "oh my god, PBs are so underpowered, why did I ever make one when my warshade is purple and makes waffles too, I'm deleting my PB after 6 levels, whine, whine, whine" I can't say I find the "joke" all that amusing.
I don't think I've ever seen a forum that seems so dedicated to getting people NOT to play an AT. Even the Stalker forum is more positive. Which should say something.

Returning to topic: Well people already said what I was going to say and wait until i21 since there maybe major changes in PB builds its safe to see what it will become before looking something now and than changing it after one or two months.
Maybe one day they will allow us to color tint the Kheldian powers. Then I could just make a WS look like a PB.
H: Blaster 50, Defender 50, Tank 50, Scrapper 50, Controller 50, PB 50, WS 50
V: Brute 50, Corruptor 50, MM 50, Dominator 50, Stalker 50, AW 50, AS 50
Top 4: Controller, Brute, Scrapper, Corruptor
Bottom 4: (Peacebringer) way below everything else, Mastermind, Dominator, Blaster
CoH in WQHD

On that note.. yeah ws is fun and all.. but i love my consistency with my pb.. and its also play style.. i play my pb as a blapper.. so single target raper.. im ya guy..
try playing a shade solo against a eb.. not so fun.. pb solo against a eb = possibility your going to finish the mission solo..
also as much as i tried.. i cannot get a ws to work in pvp.. and beleive me made tons of builds for it.. not so good.. too many variables and not enough time to go through them just to be killed..
A pb on the other hand can be made into an effective pvp killer.. As much hp as a scrapper. As much resistance as a scrapper. (Even more when light form changes comes out). With range.. The dmg is so so, but thats boosted with io's, aasualt, reds, and procs procs procs (Everybody)!!!
So yeah you shades can go eat some grapes..

Other than that, yeah, I've had far more luck (PVP-side) with my Peacebringers for much the same reason - everything's self contained. Given the post-I13 "suppress when you so much as look at something funny" (and the suppression effect on Teleport - IE, bye bye travel power,) plus the gutting of controls... yeah, if there were any actual opponents to be found, my 'shades would likely not go into the zones much at all.
I'll further corroborate the PB in PvP > WS in PvP.
Being an evil sort I tend to PvP with a nicely IO'd stalker, and as a stalker,
I get free front-row seats to any zone battles I care to study.
I've yet to see a capable PvP Warshade.
I can name several very capable PvP PB's.
The difference is clear - PB's have all the basic tools within their own AT to
compete.
Warshades, on the other hand, are just free rep...

Lev 50 AIB vs. Lev 49 Chimera (AV).
No Incarnate Powers. Not Pets (except Extracted Essences). Used tier 3 inspirations as you can see. This is how we used to have to take down AVs. I really don't consider this that great of an accomplishment. But if you take the time to read through the recent post and discussion I had with Auroxis and Microcosm you can see why I decided to do this. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Haha, I was going to point in the direction of that thread too but I figured it wasn't worth it.
