Snakebit

Had a really bad Task Force, the really long one against Dr Vhaz. Spent 9 hours in two days on that. It was a struggle every step of the way, but we held out. On the second day in the last 30 minutes or so of the TF, we all decided to bio/eat etc and log off, log back in and finish it. Two of the players logged back in early and cleared it, which screwed the rest of us out of the badge..which is why we all went in the first place. My mistake was in going to the forums and venting about it. It got hardcore ugly.

If you want to keep soloing and you are finding a mission too difficult, you can change the difficulty in the notoriety settings. Click the chat bubble next to the text line where you type, and hover over notoriety. If you want more people, enter this> /lfg New player needs help with mission PST. (please send tell.

Posted to keep. Thanks to all that informed.

Can someone inform me a little on Attunement? In my uniformed opinion, it seems like the devs are pushing for easy market access relative to Live. And it's much appreciated. The entry floor was so fucking high on live.

It's frustrating. Just get started for the first time, I never fooled with it on Live because I never kept inf. I gave it away by the million for CC's, alts, whatever. By the time I thought I might want to fool with it, the prices for salvage were absurd so I left it alone. This time though, I've done a bit of reading and yesterday was the kickoff. 989 tickets in AE in about 5 hours solo/duo. That's turning into 5.6 million as soon as the posts sell. I'm stoked. Glad some light is being shined on it, maybe it will get some love in a patch? Are patches a thing with this?

I'm playing a fire/kin and I'm wondering how you FS twice without eating an alpha? I played a lot of Kin/Elec back in the day, never built a corruptor and I remember FS drawing all the aggro like you dropped a fireball. I'm at 20 and the squish is real. Going to respec into the magic pool for the mez protection. Can't wait til the endurance issues go away...

If you want to rely on PBAOE Bonfire is going to make you unhappy. The knockback is real, like mag 6 or something ridiculous. Lot's of splash from it. Char is a fantastic single target hold that will lock down a boss after the second hit. It can recharge fast enough to stack. Piddly damage, but it gives you leverage on the minions.

You should use Pines, in my opinion. I believe the numbers are more accurate and their are a lot of different ways to look at them. I'm by no means an expert, highest scrapper ever was a high 40's spine/dark and I played a dark/regen for about 30 levels all before IO's so... I have a spine/bio that's only like 14 right now but I kind of like it so I spent some time in Pines. Using just SO's as the baseline and probably without optimal slotting it looks to me like /Bio is the winner by quite a bit. I can't get a feel for what the end is going to look like late but I'm thinking it's going to be a struggle through the 30 and then turn into a pretty freaking amazing death machine. I only built with 1 slot in stamina as well.

Played a Spine/Dark and Dark/Dark to 46/48 back in the day and enjoyed it. I rolled a Spine Bio the other night and would really like to know more about the synergy and how to play Bio in general. Not really interested in tweaked build information, more focused on how to play it right now. I'm sure I'll respec a few times. What's the "power point" for this kind of scrapper? Fast High minion kill count and workable with bosses is what I'm really looking forward to. I've played a lot of alts to the 40's and a fifi blaster to 50. Thanks!
