i like the idea. but i do not want to do it that way. i want to use macro buttons. can anyone tell me the macros necessary to make necro pets do these things? 1-Row and 0 : Select what pet to command 0: All Pets 1: "Minion" Pets 2: "Lieutenant" Pets 3: "Boss" Pet 4-Row : Set stance 4: Agressive 5: Defensive 6: Passive 7-Row : Issue command 7: Attack my target 8: Follow Me 9: Goto

i discovered it accidentally. the choices are kill him, sweet talk him, or insult him. i did not want to kill him, because i knew i needed him. and.... yeah, so that happened.

this is already a really good arc. (by CoH/V standards...) working with Longbow? makes me want to start another AR/DEv Blaster and just start mowing them down... i would like to see someone tweak the back end code if you kill Harris, (and there are two paths that lead to. 1) choose to 2) be snarky to him and he attacks you...) the tweak needs to be so if you kill harris you can still progress the last step in Fire Wires arc. a few times i have had to get GMs involved because Harris had unalived himself somehow.... currently i just try to remember to do Fire Wire and leave Weber for Ouro, but when i forget....

again, you have this all solved. so great. for me, i build for Master runs. no incarnates. so i build for a certain thing, which is a bulletproof build without team or incarnate buffs. i have Tanked the Ms Liberty TF twice on Master, on a Dark Dark Brute (both times successfully). so, the build has significant energy res from sets. Resistance is its own resistance debufff resistance, so i aim for 100, even on Brutes. obviously energy did not make it that high. i do not downplay how important the non suppressing stealth, mag 2 fear and mag 2 stun and to hit debuffs are on a res set with no defense debuff resistance. again, we build different. have fun.

its okay. it looks like you have made a moderate to extreme investment in Defenses. On a Res Armor with no defense debuff resistance. I can see there is no point talking to someone who already knows the truth.

The cloaks are a “faux defense” keeping trash mobs from attacking you. I have spent so much time trying to explain this. I will not repeat all that here. Please reconsider how you look at these cloaks.

Buy everything attuned except Purples. Purples are automatically attuned (although only slottable at 50). If you attuned a Purples the only harm is you cannot +5 it, arguably lowering its usefulness. Also, you lose the cool shape! +5ing the Purps is expensive, and unless pursuing a “frankenslotting” strategy it is of limited value. But chasing these things is what we do…

We grade various Archetypes A B C etc. There are some “sweet spots” in certain Archetypes, where that combo is better than the average grade for the Archetype, … or worse. Power sets and builds that really make the most of that Archetype, or really suck. You can probably list a few in your head. Corruptors are the only Archetype where every single combo is an S class character. S is a grade from the Japanese gaming systems and is higher than an A. Yes, EVERY Corruptor is an S class character. They tend to do different things, but they bring to the table solid DPS, and (depending on powersets) solid buffs, debuffs, heals, etc. Whether solo or on a team these characters pivot from support to DPS as needed, and perform great in both roles. Yes, there are better support characters. Yes, there are better DPS characters. No, no other Archetype is as versatile and powerful.

i know it is situational but if tou are just waiting on Ada…

Here is what you do. See the invite? Do not respond. Sip your tea, read your book, wait for Ada…

you are wrong about this, you were wrong about that.

can you edit this to 140 characters?

I only know badges. Hollows, All Gold Side, Mercy, Atlas, Striga, Croatoa (i think) all give badges for doing all content

Thanks for leading VortexMaster!

picked up a PUG MoCuda today. we did have to restart twice, early deaths. then we got it!

Snarky comment

I built my Dark Dark Brute with a lot of resistances (including energy) and dealt with endurance. Old school, so Dark Regeneration. Best heal in the game. It us truly rare someone presses that Brute. When they do… full heal. He has tanked MoMLTF twice and tanked Rom no issues. He does occasionally die, and the Dark Rez is a beautiful thing.

I always thought Dark Armor was best on Brutes. As a resistance Armor set Dark Armor gets mileage out of Brute’s 90% max res values. So that makes it, to me, a more natural fit than Scrappers. Dark Armor has a non suppressing combat stealth. With this you can destroy 17 Longbow in a spawn. The next spawn over just ignores you. This is a powerful tool that lets you pace the fight to your plan. It is also counterproductive for managing agro for a team. I have deep thoughts on the other two cloaks, fear and stun, as well. But it is long past time telling people who have no interest how important they are. Brutes are just fun too.

It is quite good to be back to jumping onto various teams and charging madly into content. The last 6 months of soloing story arcs had gotten quite grindy. PUGs…. Heh. They are a box of chocolates 🍫 Today I was about to log when i saw a MoLRSF starting. I joined. It took a while to get 8. And the team CRUSHED it. So slick we just did a MoMLTF to follow up. Another walk in the park. I think we would have done a MoLGTF except real life was 📞 calling a few of us out of the city.
