Looking for a build setup that incorporates all these ideas. Any out there?

I believe a GM/Admin on Discord commented that this bug only occurred if you had the MM pet out before you slotted the enhancements, IE in order for the enhancement to "take" you needed to resummon your pets. In other words, the GMs believe this bug isn't real.

This has been discussed ad nauseum since this server started. People will give you their opinion of what NCsoft may or may not do, or other examples of other private servers, but the fact of the matter is that nobody knows, and there is still that risk. Your fears are not unfounded, but there is no definite answer with any legal backing yet. The server code is available and people are already able to create their own private servers. Once something gets on the internet, it can never fully be erased. As for server specs, I can't comment on that but I know those specs are floating around somewhere either on the forums or on the discord.

Thanks for sharing. I have a Nin/Time/Mace but I can't decide on power pools. I started with stealth to give some bonus defense while I stand in the middle of the mob with the PBAoE -tohit, but I am considering presence pool for intimidate and taunt to use with bodyguard mode, as you mentioned in your later posts. Also, why did you choose veng/victory rush? Veng does not work with pets and Victory Rush is not affected by chrono/etc. Was it just for the LoTG?

I get my common IO's at 27 or 32, and they hold me until 50. If you want to get even fancier, you can unslot them all when you respec at 50 (or using enhancement unslotters) and save the commonly used ones such as end red, heal, end mod, and recharge, for your toons later. I store them in a special table in my SG base.

Is the list of music provided a complete list? I am looking for a specific music played in RWZ. Would getting a .pigg file explorer and looking through the files for the name myself work?

Picked this up, have not seen any nukes go off in the past few days of playing. Did they disable it or am i unlucky? Can anyone confirm they've seen it go off?

Just started a fire/storm. Any build tips, powers, etc? I am level 19 and I am doing tiny amounts of damage compared to my peers, seems pretty lackluster.

A left arrow would be nice. Right now there's only a right arrow, and rotating it shows us the transparent backside.

For anyone in a similar situation, i rerolled BS/SD scrapper and it kicks butt.

Second any /Shield Defense power set. Shield Charge is a leap-smash, but in using it in conjunction with Against All Odds on top of a mob will kill pretty much everything. For a primary, SS is good. Also for incarnates, Mighty Judgement has a great AoE smash

your global name is your "Screen name" across all characters. by default, its the name of your first character. It is signified by a "@" before the name. For example, "/t stoops," would message Stoops the character, but "/t @stoops," would message any character the @stoops global handle was on. You can change it in Menu > Chat Handle at any time.

Thank you for that boost!

Obviously lower budget since the server is new. Trying to team up and be effective as a scrapper.

I have a 45 TW/Elec and I have experienced some of the issues you are talking about, but I believe they are manageable once you get the hang of it. As for the fury-building, I did have fury issues low level, but not from the attack speed. This could partially be because I am /elec, but I would always run out of end because I was overusing my AoE and cone attacks on single mobs, which required me to stop and rest. But without the AoE attacks, my killing stalled. So I picked up Boxing on the way to tough/weave just to have an auto-power to use between attacks to build fury. You can do that or brawl, but I prefer Boxing because of the chance to stun. As for attacks, the key to avoiding too much wind-up is properly managing your momentum with chaining your attacks. It seems attacks do not restart the momentum timer, so you need to get the hang of fitting as many attacks in as possible in your chain, then resetting to repeat. I always start with RA>>FT>>CB>>Another Attack>>FT>>RA. If it isn't dead yet, I may consider using some of the other cone attacks until it is dead. I also keep FT on auto-cast because it can only be cast with momentum, and it's super fast attack animation fits neatly between the other attacks. For when you need to attack fast right now, Build Momentum is your friend, use it every chance you get, but dont use it if you are already in momentum. I am still getting the hang of judging whether to attack or move onto the next mob in teams. I find myself winding-up an attack on a boss at 50%hp only to have it dead by the time my hit lands. You have to be careful who you choose to attack with TW because you can blow a long wind-up and a long cooldown on something that is already dead. The good news is that in teams, Arc>>WS>>TS usually kills all minions and liuts, so you can move forward very fast with clean up, and they are a blast to SMASH with.

I have a 27 broadsword/WP brute and I've got to say.. it is so boring to play. Even with SO's I run in and slap one baddie for 30-60, meanwhile my team does twice as much to the entire mob in AoE and are all dead before i kill mine. I know some builds are more geared toward tanking, but the damage is so small, and sword's two AOE's are so tiny and weak. I don't have an in depth understanding of the mechanics of defenses yet, but isn't Lethal damage pretty much reduced by everything? Is sword/ good in a way that I just don't see yet? I have been told that things pick up a bit once i get the last sword power at 32, but even still weak, compared to my TW brute who demolishes pretty much everything with his 3 AOE attacks, even unslotted. Anyone have any experience or advice with this? Is it just WP that's bad? Did TW spoil me? Pretty much set on abandoning the character for now.

I was on triumph, also in Wild Cards. I had an NRG/NRG blaster Hand Grenade, and a Ninja MM Deviate Fish. Good to see a fellow Wild Card here.

The most painful thing for me to see in the discord is watching people wait in line for 8 hours to queue for a server that isn't even up. They bring up how they've been waiting for 4 hours, 5 hours, they're number 100, FINALLY! And we have to break it to them that the only reason they are progressing in the queue is because every single person before them is getting DC'd. It reminds me of that scene from Cloud Atlas when (spoiler) the girl works her entire life toward her promotion in the fast food joint and when she finally gets it she gets chopped up and turned into food for the fast food joint.

When did this happen? How long did you wait? Did you wait a server restart? It sounds like you are having a common issue that everyone else is having, and its a jump to assume and inform everyone that you -have- to delete the character. I would urge everyone reading this not to delete your character or assume the worst just because there's a login issue, as there have been many in the past week. As for your "doubt" of the server's "viability", you are playing a half-finished resurrection. The volunteers who are hosting the game allowed us to play the game while they work on it for love of the community. If you are going to leave at the first sign of trouble, great, but please do not spread that pho-intellectual pessimism here. I had this issue also, are the server resets on a schedule? If so where do I find this information? They are not on a schedule, but the admins are aware of the issue. Unfortunately, unforseen bugs are a growing pain that every MMO has to deal with. But don't delete your character just because this ignorant person decided that's what worked for him (even though we still aren't logging in, even after that).

I went to create a character and I didn't get DC'd midway (but i still saved anyway), but i did get DC'd the moment I try to exit. I doubt its a "time" allotment, the servers are just unstable, as many people have said.

It's really careless to flaunt that ignorance like you actually know what's going on with that bug that's hitting people, because we don't. The only way to save your character is to delete it?

Had to mention this, title says it all. Can provide other information as necessary. Don't use it in the mean time.
