True, but it uses the Flight pose which is what I'm trying to avoid. I've set my flight to Slide stance but that seems to do nothing. I did manage to get the void skiff, and while it does sometimes look a bit silly, it works for what I want.

I'm a bit sad that there are no options for powers from Recluse as I feel the 4 available powersets won't vibe with my Arachnos Soldier. Would I be nerfing myself too badly if I didn't take a Patron Power? I'm heavily leaning into Crab with pets and group support, so my thought was to take Mace but only use the summon power.

in game global is @ajchvy

I have not, and thanks. Played the game for quite a while back in the day and left after about a year into Villains originally being released.

That is not my Global name. It's Frozogirl or something. I'm at work right now so I don't have access to the game.

Hey I'll take some free influence lol. Only been playing a bit over a week so I think I have a combined 300k across my characters so far.

Thanks, this is I what I was hoping for. Not all I need to do is get 1mil inf lol.

Great thanks, I like the idea of the crab backpack but wasn't sure how much it changed the class.

I did see that there is a Void Skiff from the P2W vendor but I'm reading that it turns off all other powers so I wouldn't be able to keep power slide on with my custom effect.

For Crabbermind would that be taking both summon powers available and staying support with all of the party buffs?

I've made and Ice/Ice Blaster and I wanted to recreate an Iceman/Frozone style of travel power where they slide around on a sheet of ice that they create in front of themselves and haven't found a great way to make it work. I know the game has limited options and so far Power Slide is ok, but you can't fly, and with Fly, you are set to the flight pose. Anyone have a recommendation as to a better way to recreate sliding on ice that also allows me to essentially fly or glide? Thanks

Not sure if this has been tried but I'm thinking of going Dual Pistols/Super Reflexes with some powers from Presence in an attempt to be a dps/off-tank. the main idea is to dodge tank with super reflexes and the occasional self buff to not die, and provoke to keep aggro. I can somewhat see where at higher levels this combo could be some kind of tank and as I'm only playing with some IRL friends I feel like it could work. Any thoughts on this?

I'm really liking the kit so far on Arachnos Soldier but I had a few questions about Crab/Bane. I'm only level 12 and have only taken the ranged abilities and some of the party support stuff and I really like the "squad leader" style of play that it seems to reward. As for Bane and Crab, it looks like the class moves away from what I've been doing and goes into full dps instead of support and had a few questions about how the class plays at higher levels. Do I keep the Soldier abilities when swapping to the sub-classes or do they get replaced? If so, why does the Soldier have an ability that is unlocked at 30 when you can switch at level 24? If I wanted to keep the "squad leader" playstyle, it seems going Crab is the better option. I'm also sad that I'll lose my cool SMG. Any help or thoughts or general advice would be appreciated. I'm not looking to min-max, mostly playing with some friends.
