I don't think there's need of one. Would make for an interesting test would be a Poison armor set for Tankers,Brutes, Scrappers, and maybe Sentinels. More aggressive than Dark, but less utilitarian than Radiation.

My Dark/SS tank ran afoul of this last week. By the time I got back to the fight it was over.
-
I admit that I lost my place and was treating the task force like I was the straw stirring the drink. I'll keep that in mind the next toon that gets close to 35. I think instead of a support that one may be all done with powers and slots.

Best Powersets/Archetypes to use with Soul Mastery?
Lusiphur Malache replied to CrusaderPenguin's topic in General Discussion
I have a katana brute. It is very effective and quite fun, but I don't think it even nudges the needle of cool. -
Had a level 37 Ice/Marine corruptor trying and failing to get on an ITF team for a few days. Finally got on one, I was a lowbie on the team, maybe the lowest. First mission was going great, come to a big room. Tank and a Brute had pulled most of the room, except for one asshole who was humping a pillar, he got off the pole long enough to stab me in the back on the way to the big fight. That started a monsoon of deaths for me, Crystal explosion stunned me right into the ambush, trio of Dark Dwarfs noticed me at the same time, pulled aggro with Blizzard 20something minions stopped fighting to all chuck spears at me simultaneously. Team had 28 defeats, at least 20 of them were mine, but now I'm level 42 and things will be different next time.

Muthafuck! I thought this only happened to my Dark/Super Tank. Knock is a problem for me already and I only have Steadfast Protection slotted. Adamastor had just done his hp drain and the next thing I know is SLAP!! Everyone on the platform went Damn, by the time I got back the fight was over.

Best Powersets/Archetypes to use with Soul Mastery?
Lusiphur Malache replied to CrusaderPenguin's topic in General Discussion
If you want unique and impactful, you've come to the right place, how about a Elec/Sonic blaster? Lots of end drain, add combat teleport then you'd be a very effective blapper with all the melee holds Sonic offers. Soul Mastery would give you some armor in Dark Embrace, Oppressive Gloom would help in a AV fight if you have adequate healing on your team. Soul Storm is one of the coolest looking powers in the game i think. Alternatively, I've heard good things about Battle Axe recently (haven't tried it myself so ymmv). Lots of Knockdown. Bio Armor is a personal favorite, good at defense, resist, and DOT. Add in Gloom for runners, Darkest Night for damage mitigation, and Dark Obliteration for an opener. -
honoroitisfantastic POLL: Blaster - best of AT
Lusiphur Malache replied to honoroit's topic in Blaster
Took a look at all the blasters that I have active (6) and the failures that didn't work for me that i could remember. The winner buy a narrow margin was Dark over Ice and NRG. Mostly because of secondaries, -to hit lets me help teammates more then slow and kd. I love Ki Push, it is so much fun, but when you add in Dragon Kick, Burst of Speed, and Reaction Time, Martial is my favorite secondary over Ice, Sonic, and Time. When it comes to Epics/Patron pools Dark or Soul is going to get my first look. Theme might get me to look at something else, but in the end Soul is my pick for favorite Epic/Patron pool. Get a resist armor to Smash, Lethal, Negative, and Toxic. Oppressive Gloom is a good 'oh shit' power, and Soul Storm is one of the coolest looking powers in the game. -
Best Non-Blaster ranged for fast moving teams
Lusiphur Malache replied to MeanieDaPooh's topic in General Discussion
Be Petty, Arsenal/Kinetic controller, you get the joy of turning them into junkies, then waiting for you to put mobs to sleep, slipping on ice, or puking their guts up. You'll get to fire off one power at the start of combat and sitting back and adding fulcrum shift, siphon power, and transference every now and again. -
Don't be ashamed to stealth the pylons and let those better equipped to deal with them. Just be prepared to show out on Battle Maiden.

Do you pay attention to what your team is doing?
Lusiphur Malache replied to Forager's topic in General Discussion
Whole lot of depends, if I'm playing a support I zoom out the camera and try to keep everything in my field of view plus glance to see if there is a hp drop from anyone. Aggro management, I try to keep everything close to me so I don't have to see if anyone else is not doing their job or for dps doing it too well. Melee and ranged dps, nope I'm paying attention to my target and not much else. -
Powerset feedback: Angel Summoning
Lusiphur Malache replied to Wingslord24's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I like this idea, but I like clown pets more -
Decided to do a second build of my Night Widow, but go down the Fortunata path. I thought I would be able to take both Build Up and Follow Up because I was a Fortunata, but game still considered me a Night Widow. Conversely, it might be possible to do a second build on a Fortunata, build a Night Widow and take both. My logic may be wrong, I don't have a Fortunata to test with.

Respec Glitch or Undiscovered Glorious Loophole?
Lusiphur Malache replied to WuTang's topic in General Discussion
This happened to me too, I finished a respec, but fell asleep before traying powers, game logged me out, when I logged back in I expected the worst, but all my powers were back close to where I would have put them. First I thought I did it myself, but a couple temp powers I never tray were. -
Curious - when are you "done" with a character?
Lusiphur Malache replied to Ukase's topic in General Discussion
I semi-retire a character after I T4 my incarnate abilities. I'll revisit them to scrape the rust off every now and again. Right now I have 30 semi-retired. I got 9 other 50s that are in various levels with their incarnate abilities. I'll play one of them for the weekend. I got 9 other alts that range from level 7 to level 47. I usually play them during the week. Most of them are experiments that present different challenges. Got a Dark/SS tank that i'm not taking Rage on. A Kinetic Melee/Shield Defense Brute, because was on a pug with one and he died every fight, it was the player, not the AT. I only allow myself one page of in progress 50s so the next one will be the last for awhile., until I retire some. Don't know when my altitis will strike again or for how long. -
Excuse me for a moment, having a whiskey fueled thought. I've put a few builds on the forums for others, looked at a few builds from others. I hope others have found success like I have. Unfortunately, that might not be the case. When you look at a build, you should know that the poster's playstyle may be drastically different from yours. If it doesn't work for you don't blame them and if it doesn't work for them, I hope they don't blame you. Better to just take a little bit and see how it goes.

Been teaming with various Super Strength tanks lately and have read and heard some unkind things said about Rage crash. So far things are going good with some bad. Thankful for Death Shroud after learning Hand Clap does no damage. I didn't realise how little damage SS does until someone pointed it out to me, I know not taking Rage is going to make that more apparent as I'm level 19 now and Rage unlocks at 24. Eager to get past skipping Rage and see what is on the other side. tl;dr Have you skipped Rage, tell me about it and leave some advice if you have any. Including stop, turn back, it isn't worth it.

I forget what got me interested in Marine Affinity, but I went ahead and made an Ice Blast/Marine corruptor. Early was difficult as it usually is with a new powerset, but a plan formed around Tide Pool, Shoal Rush and Ice Storm. I'm not a healer so I'm good with Soothing Wave being the worst heal I've ever encountered. Can't wait until I get Bitter Freeze Ray so I can dump Frost Breath

NRG^3 was my main on live also when it was hard and I was stupid, kb to kd didn't exist back then unless you just used hover all the time. On Homecoming attempted to recreate. Whent full on Blapper and I might have bought all the kb to kd that one day.

What Is Your Reason For Choosing a Corrupter/Goals?
Lusiphur Malache replied to Paragon Vanguard's topic in Corruptor
When I was new to Homecoming, I joined a small SG that didn't have a lot of support. I am adverse to playing defenders, masterminds frightened me, and controllers are to passive. That left corruptors. My first was Sonic/Pain and I haven't looked back since. I also like playing against type, reason why all my defenders are offenders and my corrs are more force multipliers. -
Whitecap why? (aint nuthin but a heart break...)
Lusiphur Malache replied to luxlorica's topic in General Discussion
I thought like the OP when my Ice/Marine corruptor got to Whitecap. So much that I didn't pick it and ran in fear over to Stealth. Next time I did pick it and it works great for me and I even have the beginnings of a plan. Course I have Scourge to bail me out of a lot of jams. -
Congratulations to this thread from me. I got a Demon/Thermal to 50. Due mostly to my ability to read and a lot of good advice and bad advice that I learned to ignore. Now the hard part is here, Itrails. Did a regular BAF and a badge run and had no problems with either. BAF is easy, now comes the things, I have no idea what to do. TinPex, DD, and the other incarnate things. When should I be aggressive or passive with my pets or dismiss them altogether? Help me Obi-Wan, I'm in over my head here.

Strangely, my build turned up in Mids and i didn't put it there. My kin build has Storm Blast as a primary, but a very different build of Kinetics. I almost exclusively team when I played this toon. Takes longer for me to cast Transfusion then for it to recharge, hence why there is only 2 enhancements in it. Most fights are over after 2 Siphon Power and a Fulcrum Shift. Usual chain is Storm Cell, Speed Boost, Siphon Power, Fulcrum Shift, Direct Strike, Siphon Power. If team is built for DPS, I cut out Storm Cell and Direct Strike, and just stay a meth dealer keeping my clients high all the time. Corruptor (Storm Blast - Kinetics).mbd

My db/elec brute uses 3 combos Empower, Weaken, and Attack Vitals. Hasten on auto and 5 LoTG Global Recharges. I always start with a combo after 2 only bosses are standing, and they are usually low on hp. I used to keep another attack to finish mobs off, but stopped with I started using combat teleport so I could finish my combos on a new mob. I also love 1k cuts, but so do teammates and in particular pugs, like to watch a bit too much instead of doing their jobs. Friend missed a heal I really could have used because she knew 1k cuts was coming up.

I've used electric powers more than other power sets. My favorite is a elec/time controller, has decent dps for a controller and the end drain is inevitable and sudden. Time is a bonus lets me enjoy my victory longer.
