Mine don't. Which one's do?

What do you mean? It’s just a little mids play and a farmer toon. Or merits. Sometimes I’m lazy 😂 But seriously: one of the things I find funny is whenever I mention this, people think it’s wrong; here’s the thing. It’s not some “secret”. It’s not an impossibility or even remotely hard, it’s LITERALLY 5-10 minutes on Mids or a forum search. That’s it.

Yeah. Or a brute. I’ve got a troller that can solo every enemy group no matter what at +4/8, so I know there’s PLENTY of blasters who can easily do it out there. Sents are alright, though. Just not something I’d even remotely consider over a blaster or well...pretty much anything.

This. Plus whats all this about average blasters? Can any of yall saying that explain what’s average? Also 45% def is dumb easy to get on all builds through a 5 second forum search and maybe a few hours casually of TFs/Farmer builds/Half ass market play to get these builds. I don’t think getting that 45% makes anyone a power gamer (thought I saw that mentioned earlier)

I would recommend posting this on Discord under the Mission Architect sub category. Lot more bite there. The link should be somewhere on this forum I think?

Hahaha...oh wait you’re serious. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAA I did have a regen stalker as my 1st 50 way back preshutdown. Good on stalker, shit on everything else that has to do any main tanking. Im sure you’re on excelsior, where its really the newish server and all the players are just getting their bearings. I know for a fact no one on torch( the yknow...ACTUAL min/max server really) would be saying regen is #1. Guess you dont know what Bio armor is. Try that and get back to me.

I think DP/Ninja is pretty solid now due to the buffs, of course, compared to any instance of fire it’s not gonna be great damage but yeah it’s pretty fun

Now this I uh..agree with. Like um...why are there so many clubs? I guess I get it if you cant go to one in these times due to COVID but still. I do however like the more casual and laid back mini RPSG/VGs. Those are cool! Would love to get more involved with those

IOs have NOT been in the game since ‘03 though? For real. STOP with the IO hate. It’s pretty bloody annoying at this point.

You wanted an echo chamber and got hit with reality. Look, I get you want it to be like the old days on preshutdown with SOs and such. I kinda liked those days too a bit but well, I like how it is today too. Thing’s change. Oh? And they were never needed. 8 people on a team means tanks wont be needed, brutes wont be needed, that troller? Not needed. But appreciated? Sure. You should NEVER be needed. Leads to the BS you see in CO.

Nah. You know there are +4/8 PI radio teams more than farms, right? Look, I know yall LOVE blaming AE for everything wrong ever, but well...take a second and look at that PI council farm radio team going before making a post like this. Will save LOTS of time and headaches

This. I hate over the top plots, and REALLY hate handwaving the consequences, so seeing people react realistically to the things going on in this weird city/world is always a breath of fresh air. It’s also why if I had more time on my hands, I would love to join a Neutral SG thats more realistically grounded, where contemplation of these deeper sociological aspects takes center stage.

I couldnt agree more! Had no idea preshutdown how fun AE could REALLY be. So yeah, leading radios and such like I used to and iTrials? Probably not gonna happen very often unless needed

If I want something, truly, be it iTrial or team content I lead it. Used to lead iTrials all the time in virtue during the summers, but now I’m more inclined to be patient and wait on others to try and lead. Some people dont ever want to lead, and thats fine too, not really their thing and I get it.

Not an issue at all. I like to think like this: If it's inspired by the Tropes portrayed by that character, it's fine! Of course I am just one person so not gonna make any waves in what I think passes as good. Like take for instance, I have a Warlock character (well, two, but the other is not inspired by anything.). I feel his personality is based on the tropes that were portrayed by the likes of Constantine. So, basically willing to save his own ass at the end of the day above almost all else. However, my take on this is he's simply trying to get himself a slice of 'the good life' pie for him and his family; no more, no less. (Naturally, he's a rogue).

This. While I’m no hardcore RPer, even seeing these makes me sad. A whole game of creativity, and then you literal have clones passed as «Homages» like these. For those who do this, do you, but still, doing this and claiming to be creative is well...contradictory. My other issue thats made me a bit reluctant is the abundance of JLA/Avengers SGs. Mostly because A.) there is not enough vill RPSGs that would even act as the antithesis to these (there are not enough vill SGs period but thats another matter), and B.) I tend to assume that these SG’s will cross the line into direct ripoff territory during their arcs. Never been in one but it’s always a thought in the back of mind.

I messed up the quoting thing on mobile. Damn phone. Anyway, now it’s my turn to call horseshit. You must have been playing with some extraordonarily shitty builds then to be guaranteed tougher than those two. I’ve teamed with Invuln and watched them fall on my Tank and Brute, while I was not only in the green, i STILL had a nice chunk of absorb left.

I understand the mindset that people wanna claim invuln and Stone as the best. They used to be, definitely not anymore. It is, most observably, Rad and Bio. They are the polished results of years of armor building. My Bio/Spines, if needed( it almost never is) can become a mini granite tank with none of the drawbacks minus the damage thing with defensive. And Rad is just flat out better than the res sets in the hands of good IO builders

Ooh this is neat! Necro/Dark Poison/Fire( this one solo’d ITF and can probably do crazier stuff) Bio/Spines Grav/Storm Fire/Atomic EM/Rad Brute Demons/Pain Water/Ice blaster If they could be carried over as I currently have them? You’d have an impossible to beat team. The tank doesnt die unless you’ve got SERIOUS debuffs, which you won’t, thanks to the poison/fire. The rest is ridiculous damage, and the nice little off healing and rez of both the /Dark and /Pain. Oh and Necro/Dark being the king of -ToHit.

Couple points that I disagree with: IOs. I tend to see this response as uh..bit too strong yknow? Youd have an easier time having your own server with no IOs. How does that last one make sense. Like sell it to me, if they’re soloing, legit what does that have to do with you?

Now if this isnt some dramatic irony right here..

A fine video indeed!

Perma dom though is NOT an either-or scenario, do keep in mind you can have the res or def you want and still have perma! Im sure the gurus of dominators on the dom forum will have oodles of more useful advice to pass along 😀

This I can get behind.

You’re right, I dont get tp dictate who replies so apologies there. And so what? So have I. If anything, that means you understand them less and you’re only really highlighting to me your lack of knowledge in the AT. But beyond that, its just the blatantly asinine request of «because I can’t, no one should be able to» mentality that came across in your initial post. Like I said, you cant get perma dom? That sucls. But that doesnt mean everyone else’s build should be hindered. That type of asinine thought process is what vexes me.
