Snarky

This is not a troll post. Sigh. We can’t begin this way. Let me turn on the light. ( bonus points to anyone who caught the vampire reference) Psi Hole on Invulnerability CANNOT be fixed. In my opinion. Trying to do so is resource consuming and works at cross purposes to making a good build. I recently saw a couple friend’s chatting in SG chat and one was telling the other to make sure they put 5 +3 psi res globals on the build. I wisely decided not to jump in. A vampire raving about stupid mortals while the blood lust is on them will convince no one Psi is really a small portion of the game. There is an accolade power that gives a brief window of protection every ten minutes. There is Dull Pain and Oranges. Just fall into Scrapper mode during really tough Psi heavy task forces. Invulnerability Brutes are used to tanking. Once in a while you need to change gears Tiger Tank. Again, build to the strengths if your primary and secondary. Do not twist yourself in knots to get a build that can moderately handle Psi. If you desperately need to Tank Psi grab a Dark Armor. My Dark Armor Brute stands in the pink and purple patches of the Minds of Mayhem trial and laughs

I think a lot (too much) about statistical weighting. Where did the data come from? what type of builds posted for what reason? For instance you could do this with Brutes. But the data would be very skewed if all the posts were farm builds. It would be very different if you had a group of very good builders and all requested them to build with a single goal in mind. Quite differen t to grab some random group of data and call the results something useful. While I know this is not a homework assignment it is impossible to determine the usefulness of the data output without knowing what the input was. Tastes great, by the way, what went in the sausages again?

I know right ? I never realized. Then i looked at the number. If you cant eat that end cost on your build without help you need more tinkering than mitigation of that crash would give you

This used to be me. Especially on my Brute. But even when I switched to Dark/Dark Blaster I would fly for the corners of the map at the word “crackle”. Now….. not so much. I step out to around where I guess 80 is? Look for crackles. See if my health bar is plummeting (invisible). Even comfortable cozying up to a crackle (not too close) but I am concentrating on keeping damage up. Period. After crackles over I like to zoom into middle of league and use Destiny Rebirth and pop a couple team incarnate damage inspirations. Seriously that first minute means so much. You get through two crackles with most of league grinding him down and you are almost done. The alternative strategies are, no disrespect, inferior

So many good things. Fixing Energy Melee! Thank you! Tweaking Tanks! Stares at my old SS Brutes…..now if you could just….. The new Hami Os that give me a Heal /Rech option! About a zillion other things. oh, and glad they fixed that bug where the game disappeared off the face of the planet!

The P2W end power temp is easily iverlooked and provides an incredible backup in hard fights

Another story that was well told was the red side Johnny Sonata arc. Just great storytelling.

Most people that gravitate to Brutes seem to have a concept in mind. In my opinion. What might seem like one of the most mindless archetypes… well maybe it is a pick based on feeling. There are some sets that perform better than others sure…. Most of us sort of know whats what. But our ‘decision’ tends to be a gut choice based on how we want to smash. My two cents

Lol. Some people use targeting macros for stuff like sappers. Two things 1) i never figured tge Fing things out 2) what do you do with a roomful of freak superstunners? This is why even my squishies play dirty. Dark/Dark Blaster. Stealth….Nuke (has a massive to hit debuff if you live). Ice/cold Corruptor… fully ranged. Softcap ranged defense. Stays way out if the combat zone But the Dark/Invul Brute. Heh. The more the merrier.

Yeah I am currently maining a Dark Invulnerability Brute. Go for my end bar. No really, it’s funny. If you actually manage to make headway I will zap two or three of the mobs with Dark Consumption and fill it back up…

A good olace to start is looking at invulnerability. It has a power resist energies which resists end drains and recovery debuffs. Check this in mids. Boot up one in game and see if the stat shows in combat stats anywhere

Since you were asking about optimizing…. Willpower is a great set. Its just hard to not recognize Invulnerable is better late game with I/Os. You fix all of Invul end issues either with I/Os or Alpha slot. Invul has better defense debuff resistance. Higher resist values actually work to resist having resistance debuffed as in the Aeon SF. The list goes on.

I want you to know I never post mistaknly or innacurately. Bwah hah hah! still, find it humorous you question Dull Pain. "Well, the brochure said the steering wheel was optional...."

I moved on to an ice/cold Corruptor Scourge is very powerful with a blizzard and ice Storm. The debuffs from cold are extremely powerful. This is what i run in high end leagues during incarnate trials

I love Willpower. Mained a Ss/Will on live. Having said that with sets and in modern game Invul will outperform Will so much that you might want to consider rerolling. Hyperstrike has written a bkank invulnerability template where you just plug in your primary You should really take a look good luck

Generally no. Any full stealth (the +stealth celerity is not full) is fine. Then….there are things you cannot be stealthed from. Rularuu eyeballs. Ritki drones. Some Nemesis troops. Any ambush (98%?) run right to you stealth or no. You get to know them.

The only Corruptor I run is a I e/Cold I use for SG incarnate activities. This is my “main” for incarnate work. It is insanely overpowered right out of the box due to the debuffs and DoT rains working with Scourge. Add in a ton of slows for giggles

nice to know next time i level a Dom

Not if he bought winter packs and was burning experienced temps….

On my “solo every contact in the game for everything they offer” I am currently at 39. Completed all content only doable 1-34 and now knocking out 35-40. This is a Dark/Invul Brute. Dark Melee is not the fastest killing powerset in the game. Reliable, but slow. The thing is a plodding warhorse. Especially painful was the pre Soul Drain and pre Midnight Grasp levels. Slightly better now. I stopped getting the offense and defense amplifiers after level 10. Too expensive and rarely useful. My build survives fine and the offense is nice but not what I need What has been kicking it for me? P2W temp Hand Grenades, Stun Grenades, Pet summon (not signature, just regular) and jetpacks. These are doing a significant portion of the workload. Special call out to the Hand Grenade. We all hate knockback but this ugly little power is a workhorse. Specifically great in situations where I need AoE. I got none. This is ranged AoE. Now I got some.

In the first, as pointed out, Murder is defined as “killing without justification. Therefore 1st degree is planned out and without justification. Here is the thing, the definition itself states that the killing can be justified. It did not say all killing is Murder, merely that which has not been justified. Therefore one only need to “find” a justification and or an authority figure who has a justification and has sanctioned you to act and the incident is no longer murder. In the First.

and here is the thing...speaking as a vampire...you will always find some who say the killing is justified, and always some who say it is not. so....pick your side and it is justified. there are many many examples of this

murder is not always "wrong" For instance in war or when sanctioned by a government for real or perceived wrongs against society. Also...Vamnpires have to eat. Seriously. Judgmental and incorrect. Tsk Tsk

Thanks. Thise were given to me. They create a power button for putting in my trays. My trays (2 of them at least) are hotkeyed to my 20 key razer tarterus. So i can drop the things wherever. I may put them on my side mouse buttons though. Prob not i have a thousand projects for the new year lol. Ut always love new ideas thanks

According to him. 1) while Snarky I do not want to downplay the seriousness of cyber bullying. If real (IF) then this is unconscionable 2) to swing into an ongoing event to hijack it for tour video stream then pretend that the original players were in the wrong indicates a certain “looseness” with the facts that makes me question any following statements. “The boy that cried wolf”
