Squishies are a whole lotta fun when you buy 8 hours worth of P2W mez protection.

Nah, it really isn't. 🙂

Hell... I'd be happy just having the proper leather straps that males can get for my female characters. But you are , of course, correct. Let the nipples be free!

Got a fully tricked out fire/time blaster and a fire/plant in the 30s. I can already tell that I'll enjoy the fire/plant FAR more.

I'm still bitter that we can't have fishnets, thongs and corsets for male characters. And while the cigaretto was a nice add for the ladies, I continue to demand for proper full cigars for them!

There's a medical teleportation system that brings people back from the dead. Pretty sure they can handle a few broken limbs or cybernetic replacements.

Tohit check only required for enemy players, not critters, as per mids, same as taunt. (In game text states the same.) Correct on single target.

Staff/Bio Brute: Form of Body and Offensive Adaptation on top of Fury? Thing of gorram beauty. Almost makes me never want to utilize the powers that eat up Form of Body buff.

Slacker. 🙂

I think I'll have to look into that for my two fire armor (non-farming) builds. REALLY hate the thought of losing my followup, focus, slash chain but those damn Kheldians slow me literally to death.

Well... ummm... I thought that was kinda obvious.

Funny story. Big sister's first kid, after I had watched Summer School, I told her "Save me the Placenta!!" So she sent me a picture of it. I've got cool siblings.

Even better! Let me delete power slide from my powers list!

Soloing it on Min diff seems to net me pretty good times.

Because we're playing a game where expectations are useless. I don't look at other people's builds in game. I don't care. I don't care what AT they play. I assume they know what they're doing and when they don't it doesn't affect how I play other than slowing down or speeding up. If I'm on a tank or brute that has taunt, I use it. If I don't have it, I don't. If the team seems to need more help to keep from faceplanting I slow down and spend more time watching the team's health and attacking those that are hurting my teammates. If everyone's green bars stay full, I remove my leash and go full scrapperlock. It doesn't matter what AT I'm playing. That's how I play. Same when I'm on squishies. One person having a harder time than the rest of the team? Focus buffs on them. I honestly don't give a shit about other people's expectations because I place no expectations on them. I find that rude. I just want everyone to have fun.

The Wards are fun. And Night Watch and Day Watch are great movies.

SJ/SR scrapper would be my choice. I keep remembering his fights with Kingpin who was absolutely a WP/StJ tank.

Sometimes I'm hungover and the extra voices in my head add to the pain and/or distraction. Sometimes I'm just not in the mood to listen to other people while playing. Sometimes I do feel social and want to join in on the banter. But specifically game related? There's very little in this game that can't be solved with a line or two of text to get everyone on the same page.

Changed the above to show what I was thinking.

I can definitely see not bothering with it IF I have other powers that can take all of those uniques.

That's appreciated, but sometimes I just like muddlin through on my own. 🙂

My vote is yes. Weave stacks with any defense given to you by your primary. It's also an excellent spot for IOs, some unique, some not, like Luck of the Gambler + Recharge, or Reactive Defense Scaling Resists or Shield Wall's +Resistance. Same is true for Tough. Unbreakable Guard +MaxHP, Gladiator's Armor +Def, Steadfast +Def as well as others. To be honest, Out of 75+ characters, I don't have a single one that doesn't end up with the fighting pool.

I've eyeballed that FF CF+Rec many a time for my claws users but in the end, I'd rather just load up on enough recharge to run followup, focus, slash, repeat for my ST chain and followup, spin, shockwave on my aoe chain. That's for scrappers. For brutes/tanks the aoe chain is followup, focus, spin, shockwave. If I got with the FF proc, I either lose the KB>KD proc or the 10% +recharge from ragnarok. Not sure I'd wanna go that route for 5 seconds of +100% recharge although with shockwave, I can see that being pretty damn persistent. I'll run a test with my claws/fire brute farmer and see how it plays out.

@Tsuko I saw the same thing regarding Attuned IOs granting higher bonuses than their set lvl would grant. Turns out, it's not true. While the numbers you see on that enhancement screen DO go higher, when you check the real numbers on the power itself, you'll find that it is NOT being buffed by that amount, but rather only by the actual amount it can hit based on its top level. I was slotting heal powers on the cheap going with attuned harmonized healing, miracle and doctored wounds but it was pointed out to me that what the enhancement screen was showing was a lie. The powers were only being buffed, attuned to not, to the lvl 40 values for HH and Miracle. So, yea, I had to replace a bunch of enhs over several builds due to this.
