Axe and Mace are the same, different damage type with a few different attacks like single, cone. Mace is mostly knockdown with a Knock up. Disorient aswell. Axe is entirely knockdown. Broadsword is not even close to them. It is Katana with another name. Both Lethal. Both have -def. Both have Parry to +def. Broad is similar Axe with knock down/up. Broad is almost entirely single, Mace/Axe are like half cone/aoe.

Helped powerlevel some folks last weekend, ended up without about 6 of them. One guy started with his alt, second run he switched to his Stone brute using Granite. Started helping to kill, all fire farm. Through most of a mission, he only died twice but the second time he had to leave. His goal was to make some cash, unfortunately to many people kinda lowered that goal. The whole point of me saying this. He had no IO bonuses, maybe normal IO and I didn't ask. It was +4/8 setting, medium long Atlas map. He was pretty much a beast, dipped down to half a lot but went on face rolling next to my fire brute build exclusively for farming. He did pretty well, his damage might of sucked but his taunting gained a lot of attention letting my brute smash things with about double the aggro limit of 2 groups together. All I can say, don't skip Granite. Aside from the slow and near immobilization, you can't be stopped 90% of the time. You don't have to use it often, but keep it in your back pocket for those moments you need it.

Just build and stuff them in SG storage. You can get that accolade power for a table, you got 70 enhancement slots to hold them until you pop in to you base, game craps salvage/recipe/inf/exp, and if in the SG you can also build. There is just no real reason to store recipes beyond a few days.

Boooo! Sentinels are dead to me. Wanna be blasters and confused scrappers.

With Tank T9 level resists and defense, with blaster level damage, self defender buffs, scourge/assassin strike/critical hits, it's own little army of hench bots, a damage cap that exceeds brute, and control AoE powers plus random invisible melee attacks! And I am missing something from a couple of AT.

Gonna point out 1. Group fly pisses your team off 2. Most don't know about Null Gull to turn it of 3. Some don't give a crap while they refuse to go visit Null using 5 minutes of their life. Other option is to just boot them I don't care either way since I can cancel the effects, just pointing it out about others opinion that are against Group fly but refuse to fix the problem.

Make it immobile like it was originally!

My bad, and understood. Try to say that sooner. Your following posts seemed to become insulting which triggers me. Just tired of this "troll" shit to a group, KB is KB and people need to deal with it. It's not on purpose, troll usually mean intentionally done. I know its self explanatory, but not everyone rides a bike as a kid just learning the first time and hops on it with no issues. Like I said though, newbs sling it every time the button recharged, you don't have to hand hold, give some advise like angle towards walls and when to sling it, that's not difficult. Any way, happy baddie smashing and let's it call it over. Just don't come off like you did with the negative comments which you did start with and I don't mean the first, the ones after which lead to this asshole (me) started rambling at you.

Yould should be able to use common sense. Maybe no one asked, but don't you think at the same time the MM could read the situation? Close quarters...well I know these dopey goons do block and have erratic AI. Pretty Sure this thread does not agree with this statement. See above. Don't hate the MM or the player, it is just the damn pets. Use common sense, open maps no problem...caves not so much.

I kinda figured that out about 2 months ago....

Neat dude. See what I did there. I don't want to get in a bitter feud with you. I am trying not to blame you personally but your very first post mocked someone about trolling groups and then dismissed another person who knows how to play to the weakness of KB. That annoys me. I never said you have to play better, the better player teaches another person to get get better than the newb slinging energy torrent like a piece of trash. You are just coming off as a dick over an aspect of the game. Do you at least see what I am trying to say. The trollish response you started with is just gonna bring more shots fired back at you; I know that I did that but generally I am not like that. I crack more jokes about stuff and if I get to the way your reactions are I just step out of the thread. Next time be more constructive and voice your opinion without the negative attitude (first post then the following insults), you make it sound like anyone that throws stuff around with KB is evil and you/anyone is suddenly a victim without taking into account the person using it. It is usually stupidity or ignorance on their part so help them out instead of raging over it. Edit: I should read more of the thread first. I agree with this, just bring it up sooner. That is a very good observation and opinion.

It is called Defiance. And no, with a 45% softcap it would be useless if you can't get hit. And the excuse of "challenge" and "on the edge fun" is not a good excuse; leads to bad habits in a group or the fact the group healer is healing you any ways it is a human reaction.

The only stupid posts contain rhetoric complain there is a problem with KB and "trolling the group". I didn't see your post and chose the spoiler tag to keep it short and avoidable if you wanted. You and everyone that post the same stupid about KB need to get over it. Nobody is trolling the group; they either have no clue how to use it properly in a group and I doubt you bother to educate them. The AoE defense "ruins it" is laughable, as I said the only thing you AoE/cone are minions since it should be noticeable that its about 6 minions/1 LT/1Boss (bigger for higher difficulties) so who need to hit more than 1 target that is tagged Lt/Boss. My only beef is the revulsion and hatred directed towards a player with knockback powers more then KB itself. No power in the game itself can troll as is, its the player behind it and how its utilized so either its intentional or ignorance. Most of the time its ignorance; educate them how to use it (the part where you dismiss someone who knows how to use it, you should be happy as it is one less migraine and ulcer to worry about).

Welcome to the preshow, hope you used the bathroom and brought a drink.

Fewer pets, individually stronger. The three fodder are -6 on +4 level are next to useless. 3 pets alone is more then enough.

Only 2000? Even when busiest times it can't be that many more. I thought it was twice that a the slowest times.

OP is wasting time trying to write a thesis on economics in a video game that shit's out everything you need; the pace is different for some people. Then again just playing and having fun at what ever you want to do has more worth; some don't farm cause it can be boring yet others play Wall Stre selling shares enhancements.

Point. Click. Boom! Evil smug ass smirking grin on your face at the carnage you creat. . Rinse and repeat.

Agreed. Don't forget the bump of when playing melee. One MM lover told me it's my fault when I play melee and get stuck behind them in choke points; can't do shit. Range not so much if it's a hall way, but melee got 7 to work with which fails. Stupid MM run all pets in a group forgetting there is up to 7 others. Unless you fix stupid, logic needs to smack them in the head. Small hit boxes like fire imps would be nice.

Where is this lore bible? I would like to see it. From Paragon wiki, the first is the Synapse TF and the second is the Blue Steel bio description. Not defending, but this is how I read it. First - he let emotion and the excitement of battle (tl;dr - chaos and thoughtless reaction to end it quickly) to stop the King as soon as possible. He only realizes later what he did. “The nerves will relax,” he later wrote, “the heart, stop its thumping. The brain will turn to animal cunning. The job is directly before us: destroy and survive.” “My numbed brain is intent only on destroying,” Audie Murphy's WWII account <--- Link Second - He regrets his actions and doesn't want discuss it. A sorta of PTSD, where his actions resulted in something tragic in the moment of battle. (As for getting a free pass; *shrug* its a game) Kind of #ClockworkKing-meme moment that happened a few years ago and blew up into a joke over a tragic moment (the real one). And Blue Steel did become a meme into himself *shrug* Backround lore doesn't really affect me, I find it more as a focal point for creating a character. If BS is the nearest trainer, I use him. BS has a nice back round to use; I just got inspired to make a new one with Mace and shield (I love mace, never really cared for shield. Now, I have one to use both). But some how Blue is actually a Mace/Shield/Willpower, how is BS bullshitting with two defense types! while most other Sig Heroes just have different attacks. Blue S could probably beat Tyrant, he doesn't make threats....he is a threat!

Off topic but I would love a copy of my Live heroes, not to play but look at what they had in powers/badges and bio. Those were the days. *sniff* Good times, Good times.

Try Outrbreak, +4/8....level 6 baddies at level 1 player in dense groups on a small map.

Mace. Pure bad ass with a satisfying crunch when you swing it.

Mace. Best way to describe it. Sex. Pure Sex. If only it had a water pipe option to bash heads in, wrench is good but got to change it up sometimes.

NO! PLEASE DON'T! *head explodes*
