Time manipulation/beam rifle ... Survival!

This is the best def for play alone with you think about this!

Especially with alpha incarnate of damage!

What do you think about it?

The few tests I did, with the exception of endurance that runs out quickly due to lack of a build. There is nothing due to a blaster!

I think both sets offer a lot. I am not sure for min/max that beam rifle is the best complement to time manipulation, but they are both good. Endurance usage is a big concern for time. Fortunately the most emphasized debuffs are unenhanceable.

Off-topic, I wonder how many players we have from South America. I like that this game has international appeal. Tengo primos en Paraguay. Siquiere, pueda preguntarme en espanol, pero no se portugues.

I have a lot of brazilian friends playing this game, unfortunately the team's game thinks that the world is only the U.S. and Europe! What they lose lots of money, Brazil is the third largest market in the world of informatics, Blizzard is releasing WoW server with Brazilian ...

I've been messing around with several fenders to see what works best with Time/. I've tried time/cold, time/elec, time/beam (in beta). For solo play, I think you are right, Time/Beam gives a great amount of defense and offense. The trick is it's verrrrry click happy. I think for the solo defender, you couldn't do a lot better than Time/Beam/Dark. With Dark mastery, you get OG for free (assuming you keep your hots going), an additional stun in the beam set, a way of getting your endo back up and a very nice damage buff from SD. You could easily make this kind of a char into a real farmer. I don't know about the time for a map, but I bet it would be fair with all the recharge you have going.

That said, the other thought to me would be Time/Ice/Dark (mu or elec would work too). Lots of hold and aoe destruction here with fantastic recharges and heals... sounds pretty nice too.

Time/DP/Dark would work too, but I've not tried that out just yet.

Beam Rifle is very good indeed, I have a BR/Poison corr and even when I'm not using the debuffs on every mob (like a large team, poison is kinda hard to get every enemy in this scenario) I still feel like I'm doing more damage than my DP/Fire blaster (the DP part at least, oh DP I love your animations but your damage... I am disappoint ).

Anyway just get the Ageless thingie and you'll never run out of endo again - if my badly built SS/Fire Brute who had to eat blues like a madman (he's a farmer so I didn't care much about end consumption and he suffered in TFs and stuff) is now always full of end after Ageless, even with Spiritual for recharge, I think only something crazy like a Stone/Dark Brute slotted with no endred can run out of end lol. I don't even use consume anymore on him.

There are (or were) quite a few Brazilian SGs , I used to run MoSTFs with them all the time (and there was a lot of Battle Maiden PL'ing too but I didn't do that after I saw that the 2 or 3 toons that I had that were level 35 in like, 2 days, were always shelved later), then I took a break for almost 2 years and now I've been playing mostly on Virtue, and basically all the SGs I knew were on Freedom.

Maybe you don't see them (well, us) often because a lot of them don't understand English well. I had bad experiences leading mixed groups, mind you, not bad because of player skill, bad for me because I had to translate a lot of things for both sides it was tiresome for me especially since it was something I used to do for money as a freelancer when I was in College so when I teamed with my Brazilian friends I also decided to be either in English or Portuguese speaking teams.

Most of my BR friends don't play anymore (I think because I have a ton on my global friends and I never see them online) but I'm sure there are others - we have a game time cards dealer here for those without an international card, but they suck, they deal with 1000 MMOs so they left CoX behind, they seem to be focusing on what gives them more money - selling things for that freemium MMO, Perfect W..., which is popular here.

Just went to their site, I can't even find CoX anymore - last time I went there to buy GR I only saw the Architect Edition, so I had to resort to, ya know, other ways to buy GR from the US NCSoft store, same for some booster packs since they only had the wedding one and cyborg iirc. That's too bad if they aren't really selling CoX stuff anymore (CoX was in the main menu but when I logged in to my account there, since I bought the original edition via the website, only Aion and Guild Wars showed up from NcSoft - and they charge the equivalent of USD 21 for one month of playtime ), lots of people don't have an international credit card and they'd stop playing the game because of that.
