Snarky

You schmucks have seriously threadjacked my griping about the Devs wimping out and yanking the Rage fix because SOMEBODY whined like a baby about taking their binky away...

You almost immediately want to get a money making scheme. This can be 1) begging. Surprisingly effective and probably moreso than asking for a farm. Mention in game chat that you are new and broke…. 2) run a 50. These things make money hand over fist if you actually play them. 3) step that up, farm! AFK farming makes tons of cash while you watch netflix. Move the farmer every ten minutes. 4) learn to craft, convert, sell. There are guides. Lot of cash. 5) play the market. Pretty entrenched at this point but there are still some niches I am sure good luck

Welcome back! You have been missed. Probably. I actually have no idea. But welcome back!

I was just about to chime in lol. And yes, you living old players have not reached the age of some of the scuff marks on my favorite coffin yet.

I'm not your "Bruh" dude.

It takes a little work to generate a few hundred million in game. It is very predictable. Farm or craft. Or my version farm for a couple hours and craft ALL recipes convert and sell

Look I am not even trying to hide the fact I use a metric ton of hyperbole in my recipe for Snarky linguistics. But..... the MAIN point is we had the fix to Rage on test and it was killed by the Devs after a bunch of whiny babies (you pick the groups, it's like mystery date....) crapped their diapers, threw their binkys and screamed their bestest and only reason for living was being taken away (part of the last statement is irrefutable, points to you if you can pick that part out)

So saying I lie without calling me a liar. Not even subtle Hitting people with street justice or energy melee does not equal Super Strength. We had a fix for super strength rage on the test server and 12 people with pacifiers dangling from their mouths screamed someone was trying to take their binky away and the Devs caved and nixed it

the order of PROCs does matter. THey fire from right to left

To be clear my first toon back was a SS/Invul (build by Hyperstrike thanks!). And I still have the toon fully built up Ot is just so frustrating to have had a Rage crash fix literally on the table and then to have it pulled away so PvPers and Farmers are happy Super Strength is iconic in the comic world. But we have a version that is appropriate to a tiny percent of Super Strength users in the comics. My SS/Invul Brute has a backstory of being a gym geek who started using steroids and preworkout drug cocktails and escalated until finally was using Excelsior and Superadine fixed into mixes by an underground alchemist using black magic. He has Rage issues. The story works. My dream is to have a happy go lucky Super Strength character (or many alts) that are not slaves to Rage. But screw that idea, the concept is baked into the power set

I used it on my Dark/Invul Brute to do all content 1-50 that could not be done at 50. Still working on 35-50 that can be done at 50. Particularly annoying were blueside 'rescue 17" (yes, 17, multiple times) which after you stealth, find, "rescue" the mission is in fact a kill all But generally you just stealth to glowie, kill room that has glowie, done.

Everything starts to look like a troll post at a certain point.

Having just ran all Blueside content that cannot be run at 50.... F-ing underwhelming. The Hollows has some decent stuff. Faultline at least has flavor. Not much else. To me everything Blueside was a boring hump generously layered with kill alls and 'rescue' 17 people in a mission, oh wait you did that? It's a kill all. Fooled you! Nice writing there. Like being hit with a plastic bat a few hundred times.

i disagree

people do what they want. what they need. something was taken. they got it back. they may have been done with the game BEFORE closure. but the knowledge that what was theirs was taken will spur many to use their unique set of talents to get something back. anyone can play, we welcome people who play for nostalgia, to prove a point, to claw back what was stolen. what we need is people who WANT to PLAY, for whatever reason. players who want to run content, badge, socialize. farmers farm. has zero impact on my life. because they would never play with me. they are flying a plane, i am walking around cap au diable

You can easily slot a 4 pt KB prot in almkst any travel power. A Corruptor really just needs 4 pts. 3% damage is better than having yoir toe explode, but it is nothing to change a build to get. You should really have a (in my opinion) Winter set, Purple set, or Superior Corruptor AT set in a big power. 5 slot the purple or winter and drop in a sudden accel maybe?

It is not as good as Sudden Acceleration Knockback to Knockdown. It just does not work as well. If you are 6 slotting this set and really love those bonuses (whyyyyyy???) then I guess do it. I softcap Ranged defense on squishies all the time without the need to use this set.

I am starting to run a dark/dark Corruptor more and more. I like it, but I play it as a debuffer/blaster. I forget and/or am crappy at being effective with team heal and rez ally

Every Tank attack. ALL of them.

Grrrrrrr

I played it. It looks atrocious. So I made a design that used the way it looked and built around that. A 'Mage' in melee. Big hand motions (Tai Chi derived I believe) followed by magically appearing force. How does it play? unsynergistic hot garbage with a stupid mechanic. But hey, if Tai Chi is your bag enjoy.

i play Brutes. Tanks did need something. But huge improved AoE? Look, I understood the great Brute Fury nerf. I accepted it. I did not feel cheated. But the generous AoE given to Tanks and a crap popsickle handed to Brutes? F that. I am still pissed.

Last thought. DO NOT OVERTHINK IT!!! DPS per second. every second you try to make it better is effectively a self imposed longer activation time. pick a target you think is good, drop the hammer, move on.

I have always run a lot of dark melee. One of its major attacks is Shadow Maul, a melee cone. This is the regular version of sands of mu p2w power. This is a powerful but hard to use ability. Generally you want to hit a mob dead center of a group that way the cone spreads out. You are basically aiming a shotgun. Aim for center mass and hope for the best
