8 Ball

Pre-CoV I liked playing defender with the Buff/Debuff team aspect and a bit of survivability solo with blasts, once Corrs were introduced there really was no going back to Def as the buff/debuff difference is barely noticeable but the damage increase was. For powersets I usually start with a concept first and sus out what matches best (I'm by no means a min-maxer). Typically I play them to benefit the team, if I want pure damage I also have plenty of blasters I can drag out for that purpose.

Yep, ToT at the Bates motel has been noticeably less laggy...XP is taking a bit of a hit as the league size dwindles in the later PI instances but still decent.

I'd be happy with more options on the currrent powers, maybe a bit of rebalancing (Ion outshines all other judgements by far etc..) lots of new groups to make Lore pets from etc...

Can't see the build but welcome to Masterminds, have 5 50+ ones myself, the AT is very forgiving and very soloable as needed, hard to mess up really unless you go Petless 😉 For commanding pets I would very much recommend the Numpad binds guide posted on the top of this forum, I swear by it and it makes pet controlling a breeze.

Agreed, especially with the Vault storage being immediately accessible. Most of my toons cap out at 172 or so

One of my favourite Homecoming events was an all MM Baf....(lord forgive anyone who lets a prisoner escape in that..) the AV's HP melted in front of us...so more MM's than that I guess...

Hey, Good news! You must be Psychic 🙂

You may be right, been a while since I've played anything other than Demon/Bots/Beast/zombie...though my Zombies were just a pain all around to level I found.

Not an ideal secondary but my Beast/nature is my 2nd favorite MM (Demon/dark is 1st) went for a "forest spirit" theme lol. They're built for melee and can take a few hits..it's nice to have pets that don't crumble right away and can put out respectable damage. There's worse options in the MM primaries.

Just gotta say...your setup is awesome

It's cliche and overused but /Dark really is a strong secondary (my first villain 50 was a Bots/Dark mastermind) good heal, lots of nice target debuffs to help your pets, some nice control powers and even another pet at the end. I found /Poison good if your going up against a lot of single higher targets, not so good for large groups. Haven't played with /Rad yet though I imagine it's probably pretty strong.

Virtue from day one to close, still miss it @8 Ball

Agreed, even if this is all short lived it's been a blast going down memory lane.

Why stop at $1 a month for server maintenance/upkeep. Why not bump it and start on a second or third server I'd be willing to fork over my 15 a month to keep this running. This. cost was never an issue, I just want my ability to play in this world again :)

Thank you! I used those MM binds religiously back in the day and was hoping to find them again :)
