Holy necrothread Batman! 5 years is impressive 😆

Well IIRC, the Legend of Dragoon all the hero's had different element types - Dart was Fire, and so on. So any of the elemental armors could work. Rose had a "dark" element. Only Albert used a Spear though, as they all had various weapon types. So I would say you could really mix any weapon type and element type that you like. Dual blades is neat, War Mace and Battle Axe I hear is very stronk. Titan weapons is powerful but some don't like how awkward it feels to play. Far as secondary? Well Shield has some pretty neat models, but you can only take shield with certain weapon types. Rad armor is very good, but the powers can be tricky to color right as it is a bit cluttered. There's always Bio Armor if you want something more organic-feeling too. So there is a lot you can do if you are looking for style. Far as synergies, staff and bio both have stances, so you have options there. Dark Armor is good but very END hungry. Ice Armor is solid all around good. Bio Armor is very strong but it takes a bit to get there and likes to focus on recharge above all. I have never had an endgame staff fighting, but I believe it sort of lacks single target damage? (could be mistaken here.) If that's the case you can plan accordingly and take an armor set that helps boost offense a bit too. Shield also has that "charge" ability, which would fit the theme I think of jumping/leaping into enemies too. You can't take it with staff though.

I generally take "tier lists" and the like with a large pile of salt. Other people are entitled to their opinions certainly, but I am not obligated to agree or even care. Oh, and Merry Christmas.

I use Levi for my crabby, as that -res stacks with venom grenade and having a lot of cones evaporates groups. Still a little meh on single target but that’s kind of crabbys downside overall.

IMO, what’s “the best” greatly depends on the rest of the team makeup, the activity in question, and perhaps most importantly, player skill and knowledge. What powers you have and how much you spent is moot if you don’t have any clue what you are doing or how to play it, and how to synergies with your team. If we are talking the hardest content here, maximum difficulty, it really isn’t about “you” alone, but how the team plays together. And personally, the harder content I’m doing, the more I tend to favor debuffs. Just a personal preference mind you, as the right debuffs are king in that kind of content.

This is why I always add a merit into the mail with the inf, because it’s account bound. So it always goes to the correct account.

If you don’t like running repeat activities, there is probably over 100 ae missions. Even if you did them only once there would be enough of them for you to reach 50 on multiple characters without doing anything twice.

Could be better, but it could be a lot worse too. Just remember that unless they have a “HC staff” by their name, anything said is just their opinion. And to be taken with a grain of salt.

You do your thing, I’ll do mine. They aren’t the same? Who cares. Nothing says we have to play together or enjoy the same things. Do support a boot timer though. I’ve returned to ae over the period of a few days and still see the same guy there firing off his auto power.

Clearly regen needs to be nerfed!

I half expected there to be a sudden market selling names. Still might happen, like way back when people were snatching up company names when the internet got popular. People grabbed company .com names and were selling them. No idea how successful they were in that.

This kind of makes me want to make to most annoying AT possible. Controller with group fly, fold space, and knock back. Unsure what else. Just for giggles.

How about we let people play how they like without lecturing them how they like to play is the incorrect way? Can we try that? You want to stay? Great! Have fun! You want to go? Great! Have fun! Team members disagree? Find new team members who like to play the same way as you do. For the record, and feel free to quote me here, but the only thing that I “have” to do is put in my password when I log in. After that everything else is 100% my decision. If I want to stay or go, team or solo, farm or yolo, I’ll do whatever I damn well please. Long as I’m not breaking any rules (and I’m not) if you don’t like it than you and anyone else who doesn’t like it can kiss me where the good lord split me. (Not meaning anyone specifically by “you”, speaking rhetorically here for context.) tldr - you do your thing, I do mine. If that involves us not teaming together I’m perfectly fine with that. I would sooner play entirely by myself than be held to the standards of entirely random strangers in a video game.

Personally I care more about the ease and consistency than how much I get per hour. If I’m chill farming, I can do it for several hours. Sometimes I don’t even pay attention to how many levels or how much inf I get. I pause to sell things when I’m full and go back to it. I find it quite relaxing with the right setup.
