  1. You can take whatever travel power you want. You don't need the effects of Grounded when you're traveling from mish to mish. And if you want to hover blast, you have to be hovering at the lowest point above the ground to maintain the benefits of Grounded. But then when combat is over, who cares if you get to the next mish or area by running, flying, jumping or teleporting? 🙂
  2. Did the characters who see it complete the Dilemma Diabolique iTrial while the others did not? Mot really isn't contained until after the trial.
  3. The bomb phase is already long enough - almost too long at times. If you are there right at or close to the beginning, you can get all 25 bombs in one run. I have done this many times and as a leader. You do not need a league to do the event. As soon as you enter the zone, start hunting bombs - you can form your team/league as you hunt. Standing around trying to get a league first only wastes time. In open world events like this, only your team kills count. You do not get credit, rewards/drops, inf, or XP from defeats by other teams in your league. You are essentially competing with other teams on your league. You only form a league for easy communications. So, you really only need a TEAM. In fact, the more people in the zone hunting bombs who are NOT on your team are only taking away from your potential kills and badge credit. (But there are enough to go around for a couple teams.) And I've gotten the badge in one go with a team of 4 and had time to spare. Thanks for working to educate newbies on the event and what the paths on vidiotmaps mean. We all need to learn sometime and from somewhere. 🙂 I do like your idea of having a Rikti invasion after an MSR - either open world or instanced version. That would be a nice add.
  4. Here is my Mind/Psy build.... Lalita - Dominator (Mind Control - Psionic Assault).mbd
  5. And here is my build. I too have Fire Breath in mine. The thing with a Fire/Fire blaster is, your offense is your defense! 🙂 Sunflare Surfer - Blaster (Fire Blast).mbd
  6. I love my Archery/Devices Blaster - TONS 'o fun! I have both Trip Mine and Remote Detonator. AS people say, Trip Mines are are better solo or if you're teamed and you know where an ambush will spawn, they are very useful. Like in the Miss Liberty TF - 1st mish... we know wher the AV will spawn, so while the team is destroying cables, I'll drop about 20 mines where the ambush will be so that after the cut scene - BOOM! The mob is decimated and AV hates me. 😄 He hates me more when I put a remote detonator on him and blow up him or any remaining mobs. 🙂 Take both, slot both, and have fun!
  7. If you're trying to reconcile what you have in game with Badger... Export your character's data to save as backup Go to the Characters main screen and click "Log Parser" and then click "Help" - follow the instructions Then upload the data to Badger - it will replace your previous character data (hence the prior save). It should be updated with your current in-game total, but I've found i need to do this 2 or 3 times to get all the badges to show and reconcile with in-game. Then view your character, click the "Collect" tab, and uncheck "Show collected" and you'll see the badges you're missing. It's a pretty simple and easy process, and an easy way to reconcile your in-game badges to Badger. 🙂
  8. Yes, I understand this. And I realize that it may be something other than Burst as other people seem to not have the same issue I do. And That is also why I hypothesized in my statement above that it could be something with the armor set - which is SR - which doesn't have a taunt / aggro aura and might (?) be the culprit. I have looked into this phenomenon - perhaps not done deep testing as one should but I'd rather just play the game. I have compared Burst to similar AOEs across my scrappers. Same slotting, similar acc / to hit bonuses and buffs, various mob types. I have run this many, many times and I consistently get way less foes with Burst versus other attack sets. So, for me, it is repeatable. And my MA/SR doesn't have this issue and can consistently hit all surrounding foes. So, maybe not the armor. ?? Bad luck ?? - very well could be. I do have frequent bad luck. It is known to me the RNG hates me and this is not just a "saying" or perception - friends and teammates are always surprised by my consistent bad luck with the RNG on drops and things. But even then, I do get occasional good drops. But with Burst, it is very consistent that I get so few mobs in it despite being surrounded by foes. I'm not saying others have this issue. I am only stating my experience, that it is consistent for me, and is one of the factors that contribute to how frustrating KM can be to play - for me. But also despite this, I do like soloing my KM toon from time to time, even with my lackluster Burst. Maybe one day, I'll make a KM scrapper with a different armor and see if there is a difference there. But that's a long ways away as I have other power combos I want to try first.
  9. You would think, but not in my experience. I have no issue hitting 5+mobs with Katana, MA, WM, Spines, etc... but with KM's Burst... never get more than 2. I think once or twice I've gotten 3. I get a lot of 1 or none as well. It's a stark difference whenever I play my KM.
  10. That's awesome and I find it fascinating. I love hearing other people's opinions on these things so thanks for sharing. For me, I hate Stalkers - not enough AOEs. And the placate gimmick is "meh," but I do have a Stalker and quite enjoy playing it. Brutes are "meh" overall because I hate the Fury mechanic. I have several and love each of them, and they are of course useful for higher HPs Res values compared to Scrappers. But I do like and still prefer Scrappers as they are just in your face with lots of crits - simple and easy - lots of AOEs and don't have to worry about keep a Fury bar full for damage output. I also love my Widow - very fun. I suspect I'll like a Bane too - it's next on my list. But I'm still having too much fun with my WM/Invuln Scrapper. 😄
  11. Sure, ok. 🙂 Point was, it still seems like the foes are JUST out of range of it.
  12. Repulsion Torrent is almost a must as it is one of the faster activating and hitting powers in the set. I keep the KB in it as sometimes SR needs a moment to "breathe" to let incoming damage slow down and/or DefDebuffs to fade. The PBAOE I found to be horrible and rarely hits more than 2 foes as the radius seems too small. I don't get "misses" over heads, it's truly like they are at 8 ft when the power only goes 7 ft radius. I wonder if it's partly because of SR not having a taunt or aggro aura to draw them in tighter. Anyway, I get the same with Siphon Power - rarely do I get its full potential of buffs - it only gives 2-3 stacks for me. So, I hate that power too. lol But yet... The set is still pretty, and still fun to play solo. 🙂 ("Solo" being the key word there because yeah, all other ATs will kill your target before you finish your windup. lol 😄 )
  13. I am all for sharing animations across sets/ATs where appropriate like this.
  14. Great tip. (yes, pun intended as it's a tip mission. 😄) ....Should put this in the badge section.
  15. Oranbega portals would send you all over the map and never where you wanted to go until the RNG decided you were allowed access to the hall/area you wanted. The Hollows - you used to actually be able to EASILY find Outcasts and Trolls in Cherry Hills for the hunts and not have to wade through hordes of Lost, Skulls, and Hellions taking up the spawn points. Green Line and Blue Line trams - Had to run across Steel or Skyway to get from one or the other. Founders Falls had no tram and you had to only access it by the Talos gate. The only way to get to the Storm Palace: Ferry from Talos to Peregrine Travel across Peregrine to Center Portal Corps building for portal to Fire Base Zulu Travel across FBZ to to get to the Cascade Archipelago Travel across the Cascades to get tot he Chantry Travel across the Chantry to get to the Storm Palace "What? next mission is now in Atlas Park?" reverse the trip, go to Steel from Talos, cross Steel to the other tram line to go to Atlas. "I gotta go back to the Storm Palace now?!?!" ....ah, good times. 🙂 No vidiotmaps so you could literally spend an entire day trying to find your way out of the Perez Park maze Invasion of Rularuu at the launch of the Shadow Shard zones - nothing like creating a new character, spawning in Atlas Park and immediately get destroyed by a giant floating eye ball. Although, I guess all these aren't what OP was referring to.... so uh, yeah, I hate the new look of CoT too. Graphics quality is great, but the design of the robes is hideous. They really need Serge at the Steel Canyon ICON to help. 😄
