Chance to Heal Self Looks good, might be nice to respec into a solid build once we get down a few levels. For starters I'm hoping that the bunch of level 10 +Recharge IOs I've emailed myself (enough for the whole team) will mean that we won't need to stop for extended periods. The plan is to slot 5 or 6 of these in AM at level 7 then only really apply dropped enhancements 'as we go' - this way we can get on having fun with very little slotting stops needed - that's the hope anyway. Reality may well dictate a different approach. Hope to see you there. If it's not broke, fix it until it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were taking down GMs and AVs by the teens in the pre-IO days. We had a mix of secondary powers that came with additional effects, ie rad blast for the -def, dark for -tohit, sonic for -res, etc. Fun memories. Well - if you think you'll be available to relive some (dis)organised mayhem let me know - I plan to advertise in-game before we start for the last of the slots either tonight or an hour or two before we start.

Those were just my original ideas that I thought best to scrap before simplifying an already over complicated original post. An old skool sewer run sounds like a great idea - maybe post level 4 (Fireball)? Might take an age to 'flares' large mobs down there. 1 If it's not broke, fix it until it is.

Doomguide2005 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 This could be a lot of fun but I'd be a late starter (work) then family would probably fairly rough on my availability on Thursdays. Choking Cloud when stacked is very nasty after it first tics fire. Add a Lockdown for extra umph. You're looking at somewhere between 8 and 24 mag holds as CC takes effect without a Lockdown proc. On the other hand not sure most things will live long enough for it to matter after 8 damage capped Fireballs hit. Never mind when it gets to Inferno's. Recommend if one takes Fallout that the team be aware (rez quick and get slapped by sad teammates) and the user have Teleport Target for positioning the corpse. Fallout is one very powerful debuff as well as damage dealer. Multiple Fallout will make an AV wish they were getting hit by Lingering Radiation instead. Together they may as well just kneel and get it over with.😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas it would be nice to all level at the same pace however I'm under no illusion that this will happen for a myriad of reasons. I won't be worried if folk want to out-level me/others because they are having fun. I'm definitely down for changing the way the team is built depending on our experience. Daydreaming about this stuff while I'm at work this morning I'm thinking; Levels 1 - 4 Muck about in Atlas maybe a mission or two maybe streetsweeping... Levels 5 - 7 The fireball madness starts in the sewers Level 7 = Run out of the sewers (quickest way might be to ride the faceplant express to hospital) BECAUSE....from this point on we'll have 5 or 6 Level 10 +rech IOs in AM and we'll be perma AM (eight times over)* Level 7 - 10 = Trying to get used to the speed boost and recharge of above AMs (maybe back in the sewer - maybe a DFB TF, again still in the sewer - either way we're gonna need a shower) Level 10 - 18 = Learning to spread out the Rain of Fire to avoid mobs 'getting away' Level 19 + = Trying to make CC work by diving into melee - after this we'll need to work out what our best strategy is and how the build(s) can achieve it. The only 'purposeful/deliberate' slotting I'm thinking is for AM (at level 7) and maybe some +Def in Man (if it feels like we need it). Not sure that 'teaming time' should be used for slotting?? I'm really looking forward to this later - hope you can join the madness at some point. Guff *(I've already got enough L10 +Rech IOs for the whole team) 1 If it's not broke, fix it until it is.

Doomguide2005 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) Rolled up a Rad/Fire for the project called 'The "Quark Enigma"'.

In game while posting this on Excelsior though most of mine are on Everlasting. It was LOTS of fun - we started as 7 ran around doing 'new' missions in Atlas Park before a brief stint n the hollows before finishing on Posi 1. What went right; Giving the star to @Techno - he's the perfect mix of old and new skool as well as a steller 'organising machine'. Saving everyone from my dire typing skills by using discord (again ALL @Techno!) The build (up to now) seems to behave as hoped (i.e. only slotting really NEEDED is AM - I think the level 10 IOs made it so we didn't have to spend lots of time wondering where to put slots or if it was worth putting anything in them - personally I didn't apart from AM and Maneuvers) The team was chilled and laid back - again we are all grateful for @Techno taking the first (and second) deaths so the rest of us could relax and NOT BE THAT GUY! Learning that an AoE heal is a valid entry in an attack chain 😉 (RoF, Fire ball, HEAL!!!!) What went wrong; 1.5 team wipes on the last Posi 1 mission was all my fault - everyone was kind enough to forgive my stupidity for running in like an idiot with the words of Prince's 'Purple Rain' in my head distracting me from a more co-ordinated attack 😮 Starting Posi 1 after @Bionic_Flea went for food - this is my biggest regret and will definately hope to learn from it, sorry dude, that was poor form! AM gathering was OK bordering on so-so - this is something I think we'll improve on, we REALLY noticed the difference when it was down. While it was perma we flew (6 members plus seems to be the magic number for this). As for SG nothing has been organised yet but I could look into asking the SOV coalition if I can invite the team to utilise their bases - maybe if this is still a 'goer' after the next meet-up. I'm thinking same time next week 16th March - shout if this doesn't work for you or you'd like to go sooner. Happy if folk want to level outside this, most of us finished at level 13/14 last night. I'll tidy up my enhancements before next time. On the basis that it's going to be very unlikely to have all 8 of us manage to make every 'session' I'd suggest that there maybe space for a couple more folk to roll a Rad/Fire and join in. Finally a big thank you to everyone who turned up last night - hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Guff. 1 2 If it's not broke, fix it until it is.

Bumguffy Posted March 13, 2023 Author Share Posted March 13, 2023 Give a thumbs-up below if you're planning to make it this Thursday 23:30 (GMT) or reply with an 'I'll be late' or other such appropriate message. I've detailed below the lower power picks for 'easy' reference - hoping that we'll get to 18 and test if choking cloud does what we hope. The attack chain 'heal' element may need promoting 🙂 If there are any team slots free (without prior 'late' notice) I'll put a call out in game for non-forum reading players to roll a Rad/Fire on the night. Indeed if there is anyone reading this who might fancy this defender superteam, let me know and we'll see if we can squeeze you in. It doesn't matter what level you are, as stated before it's going to be pretty impossible to all level evenly. Most of us are low teens after the first session. Cheers, Guff. 1 - Radiant Aura and your choice of Flares or Fire Blast 2 - Accelerate Metabolism 4 - Fire Ball 6 - Maneuvers 8 - Super Jump 10 - Rain of Fire 12 - Radiation Infection, Enervating Field, Lingering Radiation, Mutation or Injection 14 - Tactics 16 - Radiation Infection, Enervating Field, Lingering Radiation, Mutation or Injection 18 - Choking Cloud 20 - Radiation Infection, Enervating Field, Lingering Radiation, Mutation or Injection 22 - Assault 24 - Radiation Infection, Enervating Field, Lingering Radiation, Mutation or Injection 26 - Radiation Infection, Enervating Field, Lingering Radiation, Mutation or Injection 28 - Blaze 1 2 If it's not broke, fix it until it is.
