Lockpick

I believe you are the one that kicked off the snide / snarky remarks, but your lack of self-awareness probably prevents you from seeing it. It seems like you are quite sensitive based on your long wall of text in your signature where you brag about putting people on ignore. Here is a hint: if you are putting multiple people on ignore, it might be a good idea to look into the mirror, because it is very likely that you are the problem, especially if this thread is any indication of how you usually interact with others. Please add me to your ignore list, since you seem to take glee in collecting ignore trophies.

No, I don't consider most powers that build up additional effects to be hokey. Combo systems are fine, Sentinels are great (usually). I specifically called out Storm Cell as a hokey gimmick because you have to lay out a Location AoE to get effective use of your powers and then it slowly follows you, Another hokey gimmick I dislike is Reaction Time where you get a recharge bonus if you deactivate the power. I love MC as a set, but dislike that type of mechanic. Anyway, I apologize to one and all if I offended anyone with my use of the word "Hokey". I will now go back into my box where I don't post for fear of offending people.

Thank you! You added depth to the conversation and I certainly appreciate you chiming in!

A number of people recommended Marine, so I went with a Water / Marine Corruptor. Thanks for all the replies!

Out of the new sets that HC has developed, which ones are fun to play and strong enough for all content? Fun to play for me is to not have hokey gimmicks like Storm Cell.

Can't believe no one commented on this one. I see what you did there, Leroy.

I went into the base on a lark with a new character and was amazed! I have never seen a base that big and don't think I saw everything. Well done, that must have taken a ton of effort and all the supporting players you had were awesome. I especially liked the 2 dolls that were thinking about "playing" with me!

I might also suggest picking a character that is survivable, especially if you plan to solo a lot. Nothing more disheartening than getting defeated and having to run back from the hospital over and over.

Just finished this one and really enjoyed it. I used a Claws/SR scrapper with T4 incarnates. I did not have inspirations when I went in and did not get any drops because I had them set to large only (now changed to add medium). Thank you for the arc! It has been quite awhile since I have done AE content and was happy to find a good AE mission arc to whet my appetite to try more arcs.

Dang bro, that's a bit personal, don't you think?

Livers stapled to the wall might be overkill, but what do I know?

TY, I was able to get it through Flashback. I didn't want to run that arc again unless I was somewhat sure I could get it, so thank you.

Can you get this through flashback? I missed it the first time through.

Same, I really liked SWTOR but it was always one step forward three steps back for me. I basically gave up when they gated best in class gear behind the high end task forces.

I have never gotten a Shivan Shard. How long does it take?

I would agree, but we have the Shadow Shard TFs for long TFs. The TFC badge requires Synapse, so I generally have to do it, so it would be nice if it was smoother. Besides if you split it in half like Posi, you are still doing the same amount of total time to do it, it just makes it a bit easier to juggle. Now that is impressive! I usually solo it because I can run it faster solo than with a team, but still takes me about an hour. Sometimes I split it between multiple sessions because those back to back missions are so boring...

I hate doing the Synapse TF, but suck it up for the TFC accolade. Does anyone know if the Devs looked at splitting this one like Posi?

Any thoughts on which set is better? Using Energy Armor as a secondary if it matters...

There used to be an attack chain window where you could evaluate the various attack chains. Did this get removed or moved in the app?

I usually like to play at range with S/L and Range capped. I have a Defender that is Time / DP and was trying to make a Corruptor with the same powers, but was hoping it would hit harder, but the Def / Resist wasn't as good. So thought I would check. I do have a BR/Traps at 50, but the play style was slow. Maybe Corruptors are not a fit for my play style I guess.

Anyone got any thoughts on the best solo Corruptor?

What is the Fire rotation?

Working on Incarnates for my DP/Invuln Sentinel

Will the Prismatic costumes hide the fx of powers? I'm curious if I could get a Prismatic costume that will hide the Bio fx. Might make me want to play Bio more often...

Looks like you are right. I did some quick tests and Link Minds slotted with a Luck of the Gambler: Defense/Recharge showed a lower recharge. I had originally planned the build with 2 Membranes at 53 and Mids was showing it as perma, but it wasn't working in game. I tested the Membranes and there was no recharge, so I assume it wouldn't work with any IO, but you are right it does have recharge with the Def/Rech IO. Back to the drawing board!
