when i play another alt other than my mind/fire permadom i realise how capable it is. it’s mostly used as a high damage ranged blaster, with the insta-lockdown mez controls for spicy moments

such is life

i use the macro noted by Chemist above this post. sometimes bind it to a key also /macro FIND target_custom_next enemy alive Sapper for ease of use if i’m hopping about i’ll put the macro on the first tray and mash the 1 key when i need it heavily. helps so much for things like vines during the CoV respec TF, or surgeons during ITFs

for future mishes, have you considered using a finding macro? i find it invaluable when looking for certain foe

less gimmicks with new powers would also be nice. i‘d like a normal powerset without a ton of janky combo builders, special effects etc

run TFs with enemies buffed and no insps mode enabled, makes for a very engaging and fun experience. a sensible balance of challenge and pace

tankers out damage brutes on the testing i’ve linked in a few threads bigboy tank best melee AT

it could hold a place in the morgue stalkers are relatively squishy, i just carry a T3 wakie and get on with things if i go down if you aint dying you aint living

show some sensitivity - people have been too upset to speak about it until now this is the ED of the modern era. the puke era has just ended, things ahead are looking dark and unknown. and slightly pukey

looking at the fantastic test results, scrapper would be the best bet for energy melee, followed by tank in my opinion and looking at the linked data, brutes are rarely the optimal melee AT in the modern area, save for a few very minor exceptions edit: i would also recommend creating an energy melee stalker on test. the ability to control your crits plus quick-AS makes it a ridiculously good ST damage combo

hope he doesn’t vomit

maybe that was the RP story

it still blows my mind and defies the laws of science

in my opinion a scrapper would be a better solo character than a brute. the data dump from december showed tanks performing quite highly too as betty says, there’s a lot of info available and most things come down to personal preference - e.g. i wouldn’t trade my dom for the world i’d say build whatever looks like the most fun and post on here if you have any queries as you go along welcome back

impossibly unrealistic scenario to RP around

no, however you can pass them to other people you’re standing close to

i sometimes wonder whether things like this were more prominent and challenging back on live, or whether i was just awful at playing the game

be nice bby

So there I am with my friends running our weekly +4 x8 enemies buffed Synapse all nighter TF on our melee only pain domination/energy blast defender team and some guy finds his way in each week and then quits We stay quiet when he’s on the team as he’s often trying to make nefarious gothic sounds but we thought he had a cold or something lodged in his throat We often try to begin battle but have to slow right down when he gets caught in his ridiculously long black cape, it smells like a damp castle - where did he even get it from? It looks ancient. He doesn’t come into the brighter rooms with us and says that it “burns” his skin. He’s not even that pale if you ask me, just malnourished The team once had to wait 20 full minutes after completing a mission as he wouldn’t leave the cave map until it was dark outside Can you believe some people? 😉

barrier needs to have an adjustment in the next patch to stop it stacking, the benefits it provides are disproportionately high compared to the other incarnate powers it also allows people create very boring teams where nervous TF leaders mandate all people have it, yawn

i love these threads - you sure know how to find the ultimate PuGs haha

what about an FBZ zone event where you need to defeat a GM on each of the main ‘islands’ that then grants a badge and a temporary power; +20% rech, dmg and +100% regen for 24 hours in game play have the GMs suitably spicy for some challenge, could lure more people in

i’ve posted earlier in this thread but the ongoing conversation is quite odd. to clear things up: 1. this isn’t 2006, stalkers are vastly different to how they were 2. you don’t need to open mobs with AS (and most of the time in a team probably shouldn’t) you can open with your AoE for some nice crits, fire off two more attacks then go in for a decent quick AS crit, followed by another crit if you have the chance to hide ATO slotted giving a shoutout to ice melee as someone has above - another top tier stalker attack set along with elec stalkers thesedays are scrappers with controlled crits

i think it would pair well with the “Delete Character” button or the “Quit to Desktop” menu option
