Clave Dark 5

If you hadn't asked it, I would have.

I can't say, it's a set I've never got round to for some reason.

My go-to is always stalker, because you can walk around just about anywhere to enjoy the scenery without everyone around you getting pumpkin spicy about your presence.

I may suffer from something of a damage bias after playign so many squishies, so I like to still have some of that in my back pocket while doing whatever else I can to eff up anyone the team rolls over. That said, I've found Doms often feel like well-rounded ATs, depending on build - solid crunch with useful Pets, and Holds or whatever else they bring.

That's why we beat them up.

Eh, unprovoked attack on a minority group sure sounds like "villain" to me. Let him wear it with pride, he's earned it!

Nothing wrong with necro-posting if you still have something to add.

Speaking of bats, here's my PLANET OF THE BATS. Most of his other costume slots are more "earthly bat" looking, and one even looks sort of like a planet (that floating orb head), but they're all fun. He's a Dark/Mental blaster, and was a heck of a lot of fun to level.

Oh hey, Bat By Night! I saw you somewhere not too long ago, but I can't recall where. I have a toon called Planet Of The Bats who looks a lot like that too. 😃

The best explanation I've gotten is "they're dud powers because they're supposed to be and always have been" ha ha. But I do think they should all be usable enough to be a functional niche choice for someone who wants to do that niche.

I already find about half of the ones I see too long for my tastes, but I'll support the idea for those who want it. I don't have to read them if I don't want to, right?

"Bright Dark Armor" sounds like an oxymoron. 🙂 The title of this thread could be condensed into "Dark Arrrgh"!

Not to rain on anyone's parade, but didn't we have one of these threads not too long ago? 🙂 So far I don't have "main" I keep character hopping, usually once they hit 50. My two closest so far I guess would be a Bots/Emp MM and a Stalker who just can't stop Teleporting (see the stalker forums for my "bamf melee" stalker), in that I haven't gotten sick of them yet. OTOH, they are also less than a year old, and some toons I might have named last year haven't done much as of late, so... *shrug*?

Pretty much I aim for the Protectors. I have had some minor troubles with some of the tanks, but not enough to have seriously felt the need to reconsider my targeting. MoG is just a PITA.

Since we had an Egyptian or two here recently, I thought I'd toss in my oh so basic MA/Ninjitsu scrapper, Egyptian Blue, based on a small replica statue of a blue Egyptian cat that's been on my desk for years. "Egypitan Blue" is also the name given to the ceramics color that they achieved back then, which was a "modern marvel" in their historic world.

You're no fun anymore!

It's pretty common for a 50 on a team of 50s to feel "they don't even need me here," and often (new hard mode aside), that's true, they could have left with the team you're on minus you and probably done just fine too. Look at it from this view point: if you're having fun being there, who cares? If not, figure out why and then run a team that won't fall intro that trap.

... Sure.

I say we go right ahead and call for blood now, why wait?

Anyone who's been reading the stalker forums might have noticed this one: I built a stalker with four different TP combat powers (well, 3 and an extra that does no damage). At first I was thinking to name him something cool and bas-a$$ sounding like "Hyperspace Hunter" (you can take it if you want it), but when I came up with this one, I just could NOT leave it un-used: The Pink Bampfer. I hope I haven't already dropped that one in here.

All good ideas. I lovelovelove the Halloween event, so looks like this year my stalker's going to be one of the scouters, yep! What's the "Golden Dawn" though (Aleister Crowley reference? ha ha)? I've done some Hami raids but that term's unknown to me.

I just got that for the first time for thematic reasons and so far find I don't use it much. How do you use it? Rush from mish to mish and TP the team? Stealth a lot?

This probably well reflects real life. Street fairs and parades and so on are a mainstay of the neighborhood I work in and hoo boy you wouldn't believe the amount of trash people create and litter with when they get together in big groups, especially big groups "having fun."

Neat, I had no idea! Also, take a look at that detail from the atlas, I think I can see the Rogue Isles on there too, "des demonios." And if I'm wrong because I don't know Latin or whatever that's written in, no one tell me. And finally, to answer the question: to be annoying. Everything in this game is designed to be annoying.

I have worked on a single costume for hours. Especially when I ask my wife for her opinion, because she's not as familiar as I am with the byzantine lists of options for options on the options. I think my latest stalker has a single costume slot we spend easily 3 hours on, and she's helped me with more than one for him.
