Snarky

Okay. Now if you see Snarky following a pedestrian in Atlas I do not want to hear a word about it. It was all Scarlet Shockers idea. So talk to them not me.

I have seen them use police drones. Not sure, now that I think, that I have seen them use anything besides police drones. I guess those things have good attacks. They can obliterate a GM.

I dallied hard with a Ice Dark Corr over last few weeks. 900 badges. And it is good. But…. It is not “me.” I need my Dark vampire theme saturated lol. Sooo…. I dusted off my 1300 badge Dark Dark Blaster. Having learned a lot on my various Corr forays I decided to respec and lean into the pbaoe stun aura with the targeted aoe stun attack to give myself some pbaoe Soul Drain/Nuke room. I thought this was rather clever. Mag 4 stun (2+2). Respect! Dark Dark Soul ftw Jumped on a pug that was going to run a upgraded LGTF. Okay, my second one. First was hanging on a rocking pro team. Well, all but me. This time a few people were honest about not knowing much. I knew enough to not be optimistic. So…. The first run was more like a carry than I realized. And I was sure I was weaker than most if the team. Because they somehow avoided our tactic. Kill most. It did make the trips back from the hospital easier. We found a rhythm. Slow tempo, rumbling bass, voice of doom vocals. I cautioned in the Hami that the last team was specifically not killing all the pylons. I killed two from above and the team decided to start on the mitos. I switched to mitos. There was a couple deaths but so far so good. Then the team started on the pylons…. I am like wtf? Okay, reverse the order. I start helping. They kill all the pylons. Not sure if that was the plan. Then we learned why you do not kill all the pylons…. I had yet to die in the Hami mission , but quickly chalked up three and was on my face ( i think falling through the air after the latest drop ship orbital cannon death) when Hami was dropped. Good times. We slogged on. The last mission we plowed to the last room and triggered the cutscene. There was a lot of death. 💀 I think they should kill the cutscenes and just put the Benny Hill music on. We were victimized errr victorious!!!! And git our two badges and w/e merits and crap. So….I started my daily German studies and glared at my MiDs screen. Hmmm. Pulled up new issue and read…. Okay Dark Dark Dark, forget stun aura. Get 3 conceal powers (stealth, infiltration, and phase shift). (What use is infiltration if you have stealth? Seriously…). And also grabbed a Teleport friend/enemy power. Just the one. If i need to grab a team its the slow way. But i can phase shift to get in/out of hairy stuff and then relocate folks. I lost a few things i liked and wanted to work on the respec, but tightened the build and got things i needed. Also, the Epic Dark armor looks much better with the Dark 2nd PBAoE dam aura (soul noir). Style counts!!! I will stay on this guy a few days at least lol. Need to stress test through some hard content, pick up a few more badges and see how it goes. I am loving the damage I must say. Cannot figure out if the Epic Dark +health/end pbaoe would have helped in LGTF. I am thinking not. Maybe in a regular master run where a Tank has the agro and you can sponge up some safety numbers while enemies are distracted. But that new LGTF is just a raccoon city laser grid hallway.

well, it takes a while. i do not take the flight control power. never room. so you sort of have to memorize coast momentum and turns and just fly it the best you can

you are welcome. one subtlety to focus on is that Dark Pit and Oppressive Gloom stack, giving a Mag 4 Stun. This is huuuuuge.

i use fly or mystic flight, and i have it on 90% time. in combat, missions, wherever.

just send out a message across excelsior this is in its last days. immediately get a tell "is this real, i sent a email and nothing" i type out a response about email glitches and reference this thread post. while i was doing that person is like "oh, he sent it, thanks" lol then they said to thank Yomo. we all thank yomo

to modify this for empathy i would drop the TP pool, and it looks like you want all empath powers? i am unsure. but if so maybe leadership manuevers? or hasten. i bakeds in a lot of acc and global rech, not sure if those are your build goals. then obviously shuffle the slots and enhance empathy correctly.

here is my dark dark dark corr. i have moved into ice/dark/dark now as i prefer a bit of a moat between myself and the madness lol Corruptor - Dark Dark Dark TP v3.01.mxd

Cosmic Council imploded…a year ago? There are still a few people that use the channel. But it is a shell of a once glorious past. Task Force Junkies is sporadic but the players are very good. The day of the update one of them advertised for the new LGTF badges. Now, my lazy butt never goes to beta. I had no idea. I listened in chat and did my job as best I could. There were a number of team wipes. I was so glad in the last mission we had incan. I was beyond lost in there. I felt like a cat at the groomers half the time, just being bounced into a place i did not know and lashing out at giant creatures that were really pissing me off. We got the badges. Two things, 1) they almost always know exactly what is about to happen before you even start to calculate it. 2) most of the stuff they do would have the new crowd of 50s either shivering at the door, or blindly trying to “help” and generally being constant veng bait.

Just ran a abandoned sewer trial. I dont think it was any tougher than it has ever been. It was tough enough. There were 5 of us. Although it seemed at least one person (random, and at least one (me for a min) was dead at any time. Now I joined this pug, led by a 50. And. Not. A. Single. Other. Person. Knew. Anything. It was brutal. But I just kept typing the same stuff out in chat and they mostly did it. Best interchange of the Trial. random teammate. “I just used AoE on a generator.” me. “Ya, dont do dat” random teammate. “Okay dad” Once I had communicated the plan it took three cycles to knock it down. We were only given 3 particle cannons. I think we could have done it in two but the first round a few people freaked at the ambush. I gave more “encouragement” on tactics for round two lol

I always liked the over the top Crabs. I had a few on live. I tried one on HC about 2? years ago. Then the backpack started randomly showing up on different non arachnos toons. and some (not all) new characters i made had the backpack and there was nothing i could do but get out of character generation, start again, and hope... has anyone else encountered this issue? i am wanting to start two crab projects...

yeah, i almost did not take assault, but it has the prot from taunt lol. gettin' brutal out there with the new playah base

Yeah i respec’d after last mom ( same issue but we made it thru ). I added all 3 leadership toggles. Unfortunately i seemed to be the only one running tactics and assault

there is the new badge for 50 psa. but i cannot find the other pa badges for getting costumes. what are they?

Controversy Due to its suspected origins,[3] the term has been accused of being ageist and racist.[11] Perceptions and discrimination The twink stereotype has been criticized for its homogenous descriptions, usually bringing to mind thin, white, able-bodied, blond-haired young men. As with many terms, modern usage has broadened the term to include more diverse parts of the community.

you dont put peppers, or pepper on pizza? or onions? just bread tomato paste and cheese for you huh?

mids provides a scratchpad that feels very much like a respec in game. it is just flat easy rather than spending how many hours building a spreadsheet environment....

And how do i know what are “ old files”???

Without building a full mids layout for you….you want more accuracy and recharge? Cram on purple sets. Also make sure you have a lotg 7.5% in each defense power. Then, quite a rew ranged sets have +rech as well.

And you believed him? Sounds like he (intentionally or not) had it 4/8

The T2 is better I believe as well. You are going to be right in the thick of it. Dark has the PBAoE nuke and all of your Empathy powers are PBAoE. You stand right on the butts of tanks, brutes, and scrappers. The to hit debuffs in Dark are very important to you. You might consider Dark Mastery and grab the PBAoE Stun Aura. Way more effective than you would think at first glance. I run Ice/Dark/Dark and stay at a respectable 30-70 feet from all fighting if I can. Everything I do is ranged. Sure, people do not benefit as much from my leadership toggles and pbaoe heal. Sucks to be them. Picking up Void Judgement may also help as it reduces enemies attacks as well, those left standing. Your job (based on your powers) is healing and buffing your team. Your attacks should disorient and debuff those around you to help leverage that for as long as possible. Blasters are hit and run. Corruptors, especially one like yours, shine in extended battles. Hasten, to cycle your powers faster, and as many toggles from the leadership pool as you can squeeze on. I do not build squishies for pbaoe. So that part of the equation I am unsure what to do. Other than say make sure you always have the Tank/Brute pinpointed and stay on their good side. That is not a metaphor, keep them between you and the enemy (the bad side). When surrounded drop the nuke. Knockback to knockdown in the cone of course. There are a few interesting procs (not damage) that can go in each of your AoE that give crowd control. Look into that.

No idea but a pug MoM tonight was a horrid slog that we failed (if we had a minute more we would have won). The last boss was at about 25%. We couldnt keep the lady from going straight to the center in the cave room. It was like she was on roller skates. This despite us having enough damage (admittedly barely) to get the requirement for putting down penny with only 4 whatevers killed. It was just a rough run.
