Get actual numbers from https://cod.uberguy.net/ Figure out attack chain damage for blasters vs corruptors but add 40% to base corruptor damage for the average scourge adds. Edit: Calculate whatever damage buff averages out to for blasters from their inherent. There still is a damage buff for attacking, yes? Calculate in buffs from aim/buildup/etc based on recharge up time for chain. There is no profit. This is for informational purposes only.

Altruism doesn't exist. If you take a power that benefits you, either directly or because it makes those around you better and since you're on a team you're better for it, it's selfish. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with being selfish when it benefits everyone.

Do the opposite of the speed run sometime. Hop into a normal +*/x8 TF and clear everything. Take breaks whenever you want, kill as fast or slow as you like, it's very zen. Being able to start TFs solo was one of the best changes to ever hit this game.

That movie is up there with Airplane and American Werewolf in London in my hierarchy of perfect movies.

Why not both? 🙂

Never forget....

Treat others as they treat you. Bullies only stop being bullies after you punch them in the face a few times. Harm no other and do as ye will. Break that rule and you're no longer protected by it.

Blasters are great on teams. Don't see many of them in the Trapdoor thread. Maybe elec since the devs overdid it on the end drain as they overdid it with the tank buffs? I hate 'em, personally, but I soloed a lot. Anyhoo, on topic, bump the +fury ATO to the same PPM as the other one and let the buff be stackable. For the other, add some +recharge and call it a day. Won't fix much but since the only "fixes" around here are based on making everything OP, it doesn't really matter. Edit: And put the fury cap back where it was before the most recent nerf.

Not really anymore. And there are far better builds than I provide out there, too.

And this is precisely why one playstyle shouldn't be given preferential treatment over another. Screw over the farmers enough, they'll quit playing. Screw over the soloists enough and they'll quit playing. Screw over the hard mode lovers enough and they'll quit playing. Perhaps the ONLY goal should be to avoid screwing anyone over. Edit: And, yes, I'm fully aware that the pursuit of powerset/AT balance will ALSO screw over the overpowered. It's a no-win situation. So in the end, the devs will make the game how they want it and will have a certain player population because of the choices they make.

I have always may or may not have ever been never Bill Z Bubba.

They'd certainly be making better decisions with my axe!

It's a Super Simulator. It's an MMORPG. It's a Single Player Super Game. There are actual farm simulators out there. AE isn't that. There's no driving tractors or harvesters or herding cows. There's nothing different in AE and the non-AE game. It's all just killing (or arresting if you're a pansy) enemies. Everything else is window dressing.

... so many TMI and bannable comments I could make ...

Hell yea. Been planned for ages. Only 25 years to go!

All of my characters are in a single SG that was only shared with my RL brother, but he no longer plays. We're coalitioned with the dual-SG I hang out with. Our coalition mom even redid my personal base (a standard magic 4 walls a floor and a roof thing) to turn it into a Hellscape. It's a situation that has worked out quite well for me.

Yup. It's good to be rich. It's even better not to give a single flying fark about the aethers or the costumes you get with 'em. I think it sucks complete taint that these devs added yet another gorram currency to the game. It was a stupid decision.

Been doin that for ages. Accolades and soloing the TFs for them is much easier when you're 50, fully IOed out and exemplared down.

RNG is gonna RNG. I've gotten exactly zero... but I'm not playing CoH either. Guess I could take a break from killin zombies and run 10 DA repeatables... see what's what.

I go back to work on Wed. RL devs are MEAN! Makin me do stuff to pay bills. The bastards!

No, Tidge, that's what work-hours are for!

My dark tank got out-survived by an ice tank during a test we did with immortality lines amongst aggro cap's worth of Cimerorans. It was eye-opening since I have long held ice armor to be the absolute worse armor. And I built that dark tank for nothing but tanking.

Nor mine. The fury generation is taken care of with my attack chain. The +regen/recovery is dealt with through proper slotting. Compared to the scrapper/tank ATIOs, the brute's are downright complete crap. And, yes, I bounce between 2 and 3 stacks of the tank ATIO +damres thanks to my attack chains as well. That just makes it worse.

Ok, gotcha. I missed the Agility Alpha mention. Side note: doesn't look like Mids picks up the enhanced buff from Agility for DDR even though MRA defense all spikes by nearly 5%.
