and you think you could do a Faathim in under 30 that way (posted time was a little over 22 min) not trolling, honestly asking.

even at minimum difficulty some of these times (to me!) are seemingly impossible without outside thumb on the scale from non TF team members. The League TP above being a possible explanation. This is like posting video of yourself bench pressing 700 pounds. ....without showing the ends of the bar being hauled up by 6 friends....

Thank you TheZag, that starts to explain things a lot better. With league mates set up at various points (and scouting for mobs) you could run a Saga of Faathim pretty quick. and at 30 min a pop or so run a few and take the best of time. I can see that. I heap praises on people who play, and play much better than me (I love being a mediocre brute playah!) but don't try to tell me you ran the Kessel Spice run in under 7 parsecs without a little bit of evidence besides a freaking polaroid lol. I can kill a GM solo in under 30 seconds! No one pay attention to the league of people at my back buffing me and debuffing the GM. They arent even in camera angle, they do not count!

I had such fun last night on a Q with my Dark/Dark Brute. Some of the team was a bit reluctant to speed through the missions, and the leaders were lightspeed looking for goals. So I just bumbled my way through the maps trying to help. Danged Rularuu can be ornery lol. I was in one set of tunnels trying to figure if the goal was there. Solo. like, there were a :LOT of Ruluaruu, or Soldiers, or whatever. Eyeballs, wisps, all the freaks. I decide to clear the intersection (why there were so many mobs, groups from each tunnel...) I used every trick I had. maybe didnt have purples, sigh. dropped after a couple minutes. I used Darks self rez, got most of my toggles up and popped a purple, started fighting and trying to get my last two toggles up. Damned things dropped me again! The shame! The challenge! Also been rolling into BAFs and trying to solo all the reinforcement spawns from Siege until end. Thats a rodeo. To me that is thrilling. I have yet to get comfortable on a Blaster beyond heavy fire support for fights I have memorized. But Brutes. Danged, I still love it lol.

Did A Faathim the Commuter TF last weekend hour and a half. Did a Q last night, just under two hours. I see times being posted to the speed TF that I find ... hard to believe. I am no genius, but I ain't ignorant. Speed TF has Faathim at 22 min and Q at 52. Half our team was Incarnated heavy on the Q and all but one of us had TT and every other P2W trick. Maybe with a split up team of incarnates all using fly overboost and knowing exactly where to be you could get very fast. But just finding the mobs at the various points on the Faathim especially is a time eater. Not to mention there are actual missions. I am calling BS on it. You can post that it was done in 7 minutes if you want with a screenshot and a note from Dean Winchester. But something about the WAY it was done is different. Beyond just knowing exactly where everything is and having everything set up and getting lucky. I mentioned my puzzlement. Someone told me you could league up a TF team and use Incarnate league summon on them....Is that possible?

He cant spare the power pick. I looked sat the build enough to see if throwing Rune of Protection on was possible. It would take a hacksaw, bondo, and a lot of glue to even start.

Great name Doug. Reminds me of the zombie TV series, one of the security organizations was Filmore-Graves. It took me way too long to put that together....

I have mostly stopped alting. Before you reach for your rocks, pitchforks and torches hear me out. While this does mean i am not doing endless alt runs through Posi1, posi2, synapse, etc, It does mean i am doing endless ITF, LGTF, MLSF, LRSF, incarnate trials, market crash, SBB, etc. And weeklies. So, my question is. How is alting "key for this game?" Okay, now you can reach for the rocks

I would like to add to the question. How and or why are some things changed and not others that benefit some people but not others and in fact disenfranchise some players who may or may not know to speak up about it with the aforementioned changes causing distress to these (possible) unfortunate players to benefit other players who may or may not have asked for the benefit of a powerset modification in the first place.

I would love to get 1 health and .1 end per veteran level....maybe after 100? Really make it a lifetime achievement character lol.

here is a new challenge i am doing regular on my dark/dark brute. join a pug baf. when the siege portion starts go to the reinforcement spawn point immediately. start fighting there, do not leave, do not quit until team has finished trial. for my dark dark this is razors edge fun lol. if i fall i have to hit Soul Transfer FAST or I lose all the agro and my playmates race for the league. I am more useful soloing all adds than i am DPS on the bosses, due to rings. I can control the outside agro and let the league focus on primary task my point in mentioning this are there are a hundred thousand challenges awaiting you in the game if you look for them. done everything huh? do you have your ski badges? because that takes a different level of toon control lol

I seriously want the lower body ghost flowy smoke that some CoT spectres get. I also want the legless levitate tech platform the Freaks get in the new Doc Buzzsaw arc. (well, at least one Freak has it)

I really consider this a zombie thread, It has been dead for a long time but just keeps wandering around in circles waiting for someone to put it out of it's misery.

I just started using the LFG method to get to Cim. However, I have had odd experiences with people saying they are having problems inviting me. Because I am me, I always put it down to PUG incompetence 🙂 But, because I am me, now I am getting a little paranoid something is broken and it is affecting my ability to get on the TFs I want 😞

I do not play bio. On my Dark/Dark main Brute I started with Melee Hybrid. Been playing him a while lol. So I just casually T4d Hybrid Assault. Depending on the run I will either choose tanky, or if not needed, more damage. More damage is always a great option, once your build (for that particular TF, farm / Incarnate Trial ) is set to go, squeezing more damage out is the next logical step. Again, never played Bio, but the option to get a constant red inspiration going is not a bad thing....

I have shared my dark/dark build so many times I thought I might get a warning from the mods about spam. But, here ya go....

Making a very strong toon takes a month or so from scratch (if you follow advice) and a few days if you are established. (have cash, know the speed level runs etc) Incarnating a very strong toon fully, another few days tops. So a week, done with game. Hmmmm....wait a minute. Wasn't there something I was supposed to be doing? Oh, right. Playing. I started a toon in Late October, soloed all redside arcs (every single story arc. from every contact) and am now badging with them. 1050 badges of 1500. Lot of stuff left to do. But, yeah. He is 'done' as far as how powerful. I could maybe squeeze a bit more out of the build, but I am happy with how he plays I am happy with how he plays. Hmmm. Right, there ya go.

i was quoting myself lol. its the SS tank i parked. doh.

THis was my exact experience, two separate times last night in Cim. You know me, I start griping in LFG about people not wanting Brutes. Poor me! The second time I start getting tells from a person on the team that sees my LFG posts. That person becomes team leader and invites me. (I was back in AP then) I head back into CIM (via CAP, fastest at that point) Thats all I know besides the new team leader saying the first could not find or invite me. I received no tells from either of the original team leaders telling me anything

that isnt the issue. i only pug, and i never form lol. i did a khtf in between the two sets of cim problems, smooth as butter on the invite

gratz

Happened multiple times tonight. I am a 50 rogue. see msg in LFG. I use LFG port to Cim. Send a private tell and public msg to team leader. They cannot see me in team finder. another person switched and found me. I forgot, in my frustration, to ask their alignment. Was invited to a KHTF no issues. Team leaders are also not able to find others asking. So, anybody know anything?

I have the same issue with a different power. The Avalanche set, only sometimes. Squirt is the perfect word, like a stomped on ketchup packet. It is also in a "Knockdown power, like Footatomp. Cant find the toon lol. But the prob is when it procs it kicks the KB from .67 to over 1. Knockdown powers do not equal knockdown procs,

Bowing out of this topic. This is "Are all Energy Blasters Trolls?" because of knockback in a new skin. And it was clearly decided, yes, all Energy Blasters are trolls.... Seriously though, if someone knows how to use knockback they can play pool with mobs and the mitigation is superior and works on almost all mobs. If they do not know what they are doing they are going to be firing knockback (or in this case fold space) at everything and the team is going to be going ...s l o w e r There is not much we can do in threads like this other than 1) bitch. first thing I did. check. 2) mention that some people use the power well. yep, did that after i thought about it. check. talk endlessly about how 'certain people play" and "why do they do that?" Yeah, not going there. One final bitch, which harkens to my original. Most of the time (hmmm 99%?) I freaking hate any teammate that uses this around my Brute. The power seriously sucks rancid necrotic donkey balls.

Im not a farmer. but if you want more responses you should retitle Spines Fire lf advice
