Snarky

That is a fine bit of tailoring sir. I could never get those pants to do what I wanted. You have used them well as part of a blended outfit!

Damned. It's like a New Jersey Wal Mart.

I have had great success on a Dom the two times I ran one there. None of the doppels appear to be able to handle serious mezz

This might be what was happening. I am on an AR, not a Fire. But still, I purposefully did not overlevel the TF. Exactly 15, no exemplar effect. Snipe and M30 at 95% dam, and all other attacks at 90% PLUS rocking the P2W procs and the Blaster proc in M30. (for accuracy I rely on DFB bonus, targeting drone and a Kismet in concealment) So, if there was a way for me to pull from a meat shield I might have achieved that. And I would bet a good chunk of infamy not one of those Brutes or Tanks had Taunt. (My tanks and lately my Brutes always take Taunt, even at low level if teaming)

I fell fortunate when the team doesnt split and charge both. try to get them to do something smart? you kidding me here?

As stated before the team NEVER listens to my instructions on this mission. But I will TRY to get them to do this next time. I always want to clear around City Hall steps first. If I am on any non melee then the doors are not an issue. I have enough DPS/Control to overwhelm the CoT egressing that political hellhole.

I do not talk about the smooth runs. Kind of like writing a story. No drama no interest. Last night...wow...drama. I am still trying to figure if it was mostly just door spawn and the team was just really slow killing so it looked like more, or if the tanks and brutes had agro as they came in and dragged extra mobs. Maybe a combo.

I recently started learning German. When I listen to how Germans say "Pinguin" I almost laugh every time. German has a few rough sounds. It can also sound hilarious.

So i start a Posi 1. I am on a Blaster. We fill. There are 3 Tanks and 2 Brutes First question; is there equation that desribes the fact of the less damage a team does the more that team wants to attack more objectives? It was not horrid. It was not great. My fully ranged AR Blaster still had to use tricks to lock down the agro. Oh and we had a dom or troller too, they were purple anyway. Still i caught agro We get to the last mission. You already know. After the team wiped and reassembled one of the group says “congratulations, the is the most agro I have ever seen pulled on that map” They were not kidding. After we freed the four heroes we moved near the city hall steps. I will take the blame for saying nothing. In my defense I have never had a single instruction given on that map followed. So, I just watched and hoped for the best. Yeah, we missed the best by a wide margin. I am flying. I see the larger part of the team play it smart. There is a big spawn of CoT at the base of the steps. That needs to be knocked down before we…..I watch as one of our team flies above the city hall like a drunk bee. Then alights ever so calmly right in front of the door. Then walks down the stair to where the team has started the fight with CoT. I dont know where all the CoT came from. I have done that TF a lot. It seemed like WAY more than what pours out the door. We gave it a helluva try. I used a few team purples and team greens. Level 15 so a few was all i had. After about 4 minutes we were down. When i made it back they were just finishing off CoT at our spawn point. The only ones left in the scrum below the steps were about 8-9 ruin mages. We finished in about 35 min. There was no reason the last 10 min had to be so bad.

yes

Now I want a toon named General Chat

I just started an epic solo project. I will team here and there for a badge. But for the foreseeable future 90% of my in game time is solo But, when you think about it, we are all solo. Some try to make connections. Some attempt to be social. But in the end we are alone. And it is alone that we shall go into the great mystery of death.

Welcome to what Ice Blast has had to deal with for the last few weeks.

New reactions? I just use my standard "What the hell were you thinking?"

Description of how much damage a power does in this game…. Oof, they have never been good. Like, wildly off. I have not played Storm. Fixated on an AR journey through the game. AR has sucked since it was implemented and just now got love. Not saying don’t hold your breath….but…. Have you really delved into the odd mechanics of the set? Because as I understand it gas a very odd mechanism. Again, I have not played it. But I am guessing it would not ever do well on something like a fast moving ITF team. I was on a kill most plus 4 on my ice dark Corruptor a couple days ago. Those people covered ground so fast I rarely used Blizzard

Yes, instant 50s and all zones turned into PvP. Genius. It is truly a wonder no one saw this before.

What doomed the Titanic is well known, at least in outline. On a moonless night in the North Atlantic, the liner hit an iceberg and disaster ensued, with 1,500 lives lost. Hundreds of books, studies and official inquiries have addressed the deeper question of how a ship that was so costly and so well built — a ship declared to be unsinkable — could have ended so terribly. The theories vary widely, placing the blame on everything from inept sailors to flawed rivets. Now, a century after the liner went down in the early hours of April 15, 1912, two new studies argue that rare states of nature played major roles in the catastrophe. The first says Earth’s nearness to the Moon and the Sun — a proximity not matched in more than 1,000 years — resulted in record tides that help explain why the Titanic encountered so much ice, including the fatal iceberg. Recently, a team of researchers from Texas State University-San Marcos and Sky & Telescope magazine found an apparent explanation in the heavens. They published their findings in the magazine’s April issue. The team discovered that Earth had come unusually close to the Sun and Moon that winter, enhancing their gravitational pulls on the ocean and producing record tides. The rare orbits took place between December 1911 and February 1912 — about two months before the disaster. The researchers suggest that the high tides refloated masses of icebergs traditionally stuck along the coastlines of Labrador and Newfoundland and sent them adrift into the North Atlantic shipping lanes. And a second, put forward by a Titanic historian from Britain, contends that the icy waters created ideal conditions for an unusual type of mirage that hid icebergs from lookouts and confused a nearby ship as to the liner’s identity, delaying rescue efforts for hours.

I have foresworn talking negatively about a certain company. It is not good for my mental health. However, there are some corporate cultures that are intractable in how they operate. It makes sense to them. Keep in mind the Titanic sank because it had one of the most experienced North Atlantic Captains in charge. The man knew from decades of experience no iceberg big enough to threaten the ship was in the lanes. He did NOT know that a couple months back a strange astronomical event occurred that lined up the earth. the moon, and the sun in such a way as to increase the tides where large icebergs are normally trapped. THis allowed some big mothers out into the channels that were never there. We cannot understand why certain people in charge of things do what they do. they do it because their training, their corporate culture, and their focus is set a certain way.

I think the issue is the OP does not play enough to get to 38 and eye blast on a Tank and that is a huge part of the concept. I think one of us forumites should hook up and PL the thing to the correct level. I'm anti social as heck. I nominate you.

i think it might be someone "educating" a speech bot. But I am getting more suspicious as I age. Not uncommon in vampires.

is this that same intrepid explorer?

If you cant drive to pocket D why are there trucks in it?

Gremlin!!!! Savage Invul Brute lol. Unstoppable honery chaos
