Snarky

This is interesting. Not that any of you could tell from my posts but I do not read the updates… I swore the stealth update made it so nothing added but you could have all stealth powers running at the same time. The game just gave you the highest benefit. Back in the day the stealth proc was not true invisibility. It was good until up close. Is that true now?

But who got Generic8675309

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D?

Brutes have been scre... errr changed a few times. The most memorable was "The great Brute Fury nerf" Notice how your Fury bar never goes to the top? Or does for 1 millisecond when you hit Villain archetype power and is squished before you can get an attack off? Wasn't always like that. It used to go to 11, or at least to 10. Now it goes to 7? 8? There are people who will tell you this was not a nerf. Not many, but we got some nutballs out there. Fury used to be hard to get and keep. Brutes used ro have to work to keep capped....cannonballing fresh spawns to pump that bar, riding the line between madness survival and damage. Now, yawn, Fury maintains itself and Tankers mostly out damage Brutes thanks to Tanker damage buffs and AoE increases on Tankers. That is why I do not play Brutes anymore.

Fine, I will bow to the lowest common denominator stupidity of the thread. I have no idea what content you want to run. Therefore advising you in a choice would be premature. Tankers are more survivable by far. Scrappers do more damage. Precipitation depends on effort. Go team!

Better at what? What Armor and Attack sets? Throw Brute into the mix…not a suggestion. If you ignore Brutes and do not specify content and sets the thread is pretty much pissing up a rope and asking about rainfall levels…

Thats how i build my empire

Yeah….hmmmm So, shock to some of you but I have not studied law. Yet I am pretty sure I have broken a few…. I was (and am still) somewhat unclear on copyright, trademark, copymark, traderight, and the origins of power. The thread was more or less “oh shhhb that is wrong”. I do appreciate a lively discussion. Int the future I will report and let the Giant Monsters handle the details

Redside. Best side

yeah, the only problem is they do not combine. so they can clog trays imo. i tend to shunt them to AH and claim a bunch before a tough mission or use them to prop up a weak team. but thousands in claimable email? priceless

I solo (stealth) and any enemies that see through stealth are a pain in the butt. Rikti and Rularuu are obvious. I was surprised that Nemesis have one guy that blabs to everyone that you are there. A Lt or somesuch. I used to hate Carnies until I fixed my Brute building. Not sure how I will feel about them on my solo Redside Corruptor yet. Just hit 29. I love to kill Longbow. Endless waves please. Self righteous pricks.

Its called owning the government, or enough people in it to get your way At the risk of. Nvm. I just run with it. The Supreme Court all individually talked about the importance of precedent when asked. As soon as they got in power they did what they wanted and overrode precedent. Power equals doing what you want. That is why Redside will always be the truth side.

Purples are level 50 recipes. They drop from crowds that drop level 50 recipes. If you are teaming with a 50 in the lead even if you are level 1 you have a shot. If you are running level 40s content or below your odds are not as good. Zero is poor odds

do not look

Dark Blast is pretty lopsided on a Blaster. I do not feel it pairs well with Dark, though I have run a Dark Dark Soul Blaster for over 1000 badges lol Now that I am digging into what makes a Corruptor tick, I feel Dark Blast fits perfectly there. Dark Dark is a beautiful pairing. Although understanding it is key. No buildup? Drop Tar patch before the Nuke and knock 30% off damage resistance.... Although late game Dark^3 Corr gets a larger AoE Soul Drain, so.... quite nice. Its really a matter of learning how you are disassembling mobs rather than just raw damage. Dark Blast works better with that due to its slightly odd DoT, to hit debuffs, and immob, KD and other "petty" gambits that all add up to checkmate. Now in a raw damage +4/x8 ITF where the mobs are melting to incarnate nukes this means little, but in a tough fight it sure turns the tides.

Damn. Just. Damn. Well played

Yeah I do not think it is the crowd that is the issue. Its probably FARMING!!!! Nerf it again quick!!!

Yesterday while soloing arcs in Shark I was not able to click on contact. Closed game reopened and fine. Then later with inspirations (luckily outside mission) same

Yet it is blatantly obvious some ATs won the lottery with their ATOs and other ATs got a wishin sandwich

More cowbell! I need more cowbell!!!

Or it could mean the Devs who designed the ATOs wanted to backhand nerf Brutes by boosting other ATs.....because they just do not care for Brutes. Or it could mean something different than that. But yes, I agree you can take any event and build a world view around it. Religious leaders and politicians make bank off that.

I realized just now that although I laid out my leveling plan I fid not discuss what i have learned especially over these 20-24 arcs I have really dug into the use of the fear cone, the debuff toggle, and the minion stun AoE. I find tar patch situational. It is a great power. That takes time to drop. If I was teaming I would use it more but I am cutting through small groups fast even in kill alls. Running at +0/x1 standard. When i get a six pack of Longbow with a boss you know I am stunning (doesnt last but gives breathing room) debuff toggle the boss, and fear the group (sooo nice) then i can choose to burn the boss or pick at the adds. The two heals on Dark Dark are insanely good. I have proc Life Drain with Theft of Essence and the Corr ATO +end. That thing is doing triple duty.., heavy attack, great heal, and blue recharge
