Snarky

Being able to affect things makes us powerful. Not being abldcto affecc traffic, pedestrians, objects outside banks, takes away power. You want to further restrict player power. Why?

Seems like a sappy idea…

you realize that i am off to LFG to start a discussion on Steak preparation right?

If you are putting someone on ignore because of hostile content…. Why would you want that to auto-expire?

It gets worse. On Goldside when entering certain doors (especially Underground) you get this "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO GO THROUGH THIS DOO???" I Fing clicked it didnt I? For the twelfth time today! I swear, these folks give me apoplexy...

I never use ignore. Those F-ers spamming broadcats/LFG/Gen are hilarious. I have no opinion on this topic. It was already perfectly answered with "take them off your ignore list as you like" Again, I do not care about this topic or it's outcome. But you F-ers are hilarious!

Wait, what?

My global is Snarky. It is ignored by some of the best people, truly high class.

I split the difference. I go devices (which is great). Then i build massive +range bonuses with sets. It is GLORIOUS

Update! Just finished all content through level 24. 966 Badges. 37, 119 enemies defeated. 2,096 missions done. Reward Merits = 2,250. Will top briefly at 25 for a couple things, then go to 29 and stop experience. The next section is all 25-29 content and all 20-29 (including First & Night Wards)

Ice Dark Corruptor deserves an honorable mention. The two sets synergize quite well, with everything ranged except your personal stealth and the “team” heal. (An excellent debuff, and who cares if teammates are near you?). The Rez affects multiple teammates and is a great debuff. There is nothing wasted on shields or strange things some corruptor sets get. Fully ranged primary/secondary. Evil. Excellent.

Honestly that was just a lulz. I am probably wrong (i usually am) but i do not consider criticism of horrid engineering choices political. Everything is these days however. So, I move on…

I learned in an Art History class that that is what defines art. When something is created, then someone else unconnected sees or hears it, and has a reaction (the stronger the better) then it is indeed Art. Bonus points if it is what the artist intended, but artists are crazy, channeling imagery, sound, and emotion from beyond. So, sometimes the artist is unsure where it is going as well.

so i shouldn't mention this? Diablo Canyon earthquake vulnerability - Wikipedia

Enjoy playing the Brute. That is definitely the too priority. It appears we will continue to disagree about the value of Defense investment on a Resistance set. 👻

... i am desperately trying to understand. the only native defense Dark has is a minimal amount in Cloak of Darkness. But.. let us put aside that question. The reason I dislike Defense on Dark is two-fold. 1) Defense, while the premier Protection in our game, is a 1 trick pony. pass/fail. 2) Dark has no Defense Debuff Resistance. Here is my "boilerplate" opinion on Dark Armor Brutes... I think Dark Dark reaches its ultimate on the Brute. It is easier to be survivable on the Tank but achievable on the Brute. Like almost same survivability. Then there is the fact that the Dark Armor “Tanks” really poorly. Not in survivability, but in design. Part of the survivability of Dark is the stealth field. In survivability Def>Res>Heal. Dark literally stands this on its head. No defense or nearly none. No defenses debuff resistance so worthless to build. Instead Stealth, two toggles that do crowd control, massive to hit debuffs, and the best heal in the game. But that stealth, non suppressed stealth. Bad from a Tanker perspective. Great on a Brute You have to PLAY Dark Armor. It is not Stone or Invulnerability. You are a Bishop on the Chess Board. On your color (Black, of course) you F-ing RULE. USE the stealth, it does not suppress. Be aware of how your powers are affecting the mobs. Are they being feared? Stunned? then they are NOT attacking you! DEFENSE!!!!!!! Play each fight to win, be engaged, plan ahead. Dark is not a stupid persons armor. I know you are not stupid, but many gamers want to "chill baby, I'm on my unstoppable Brute!" and.... tragedies happen. You have to work your butt to utilize the entire set to it's fullest. Defense is great! Without DDR less so. At the cost of ANYTHING that might strengthen the Resists, Fear Cloak, Stun Cloak, Heal of Dark? Just cheating yourself out of more Dark so you can play like Invul. (Then they strip your Def away) You want Def? It will be there on Leagues with Destiny Barrier (Which you should get!) Sacrificing good slots and build options for a few points... I could say something about that. Um, wait. I just did...

numerous (unconfirmed) theories have rattled around about the meaning of this song. in fact, it is about becoming a vampire. We skipped the light fandango Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor I was feeling kinda seasick But the crowd called out for more The room was humming harder As the ceiling flew away When we called out for another drink The waiter brought a tray And so it was that later As the miller told his tale That her face, at first just ghostly Turned a whiter shade of pale She said, "There is no reason And the truth is plain to see" But I wandered through my playing cards And would not let her be One of sixteen vestal virgins Who were leaving for the coast And although my eyes were open They might just as well have been closed And so it was that later As the miller told his tale That her face, at first just ghostly Turned a whiter shade of pale And so it was that later As the miller told his tale the repeats at the end are settling into the unending repetition of a vampire's existence, oftentimes haunted by the one who turned them...

it is a 1 pick/1 slot "oh crap" power that can help you in situations that are difficult. are you aware that resistance is it's own resistance debuff resistance? so 100% resistance, capped at 90 of course, is still resisting ALL res debuffs.

Here is the last iteration I ran of Dark Brutes before I moved into Blasters Corruptors almost full time. It is Dark Dark, so you will need to adjust if you use it. It has (very slightly) better resists, with moderately better Toxic Res. Maybe you can get some ideas... Darkest night serves as dual purpose Debuff and massive taunt. that kind of AoE -tohit is serious protection. in incarnate content you will be getting layered Destiny Barriers usually. Brute Dark Dark Darkest Night 1.0.mbd

It has a crap accuracy of .67 on it. I always build my Brutes (all of them but SS) with +to hit and +accuracy but I always thought Cloak if Fear needed the extra help.

I thank you for the nod! I do NOT suggest taking (or investing) in Defense on Dark Armor. The Fear and Stun cloaks provide a “faux defense” to deL with lackeys and your high Resistance (which i suggest you go deep on) combined with the best heal in the game gives you tools to tank AVs.

I joined with City of Villains. The REAL start. Remember that we Villains have considerably upped our efforts. Up Yours, Heroes! Happy Anniversary!
