roleki Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 So yeah, Halloween is around the corner, and this year I want to ToT as a pirate. What AT/combo best lends itself to portraying a person who employs swashbuckling in their pursuit of booty? Those of you who continue to profess a belief in the Users will receive the standard, substandard training which will result in your eventual elimination. That will be all.

Without_Pause Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I did a DB/dark at one point. I think DB has some good choices for weapon customization. 1 Top 10 Most Fun 50s. 1. Without Mercy: Claws/ea Scrapper. 2. Outsmart: Fort 3. Sneakers: Stj/ea Stalker. 4. Emma Strange: Ill/dark Controller. 5. Project Next: Ice/stone Brute. 6. Waterpark: Water/temp Blaster. 6. Mighty Matt: Rad/bio Brute. 7. Without Hesitation: Claws/sr Scrapper. 8. Within Reach: Axe/stone Brute. 9. Without Pause: Claws/wp Brute. 10. Chasing Fireworks: Fire/time Controller.

MoisesG Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 For primaries i think Broadsword, Dual Blades and Dual Pistols with the right weapon choice fit the bill. As for secondary that would be totally up to you, but if you want to go for a clean look then something like Willpower or Invulnerability keeps your costume clearly visible at all times.

Clave Dark 5 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I had a thought for such a character knocking around for a bit too... was thinking isn't there a Blaster secondary that gives you a sword attack or two? Go that rout with D.Pistols probably.

High_Beam Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) I have a Broadsword/Willpower Scrapper named Shellback Sara.

Etched Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 I could only imagine a ptrate as a tough SoB, so I'd suggest either DB/SR Scrapper or maybe DP/SR or DP/WP Sent. But that is only my idea as to what a pirate would be like. @Etched 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringo Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 My suggestion would be to do what I did with my Dark Lord of the Sith Electric Blast/Ninjitsu Blaster: Use the individual arm and individual leg option to give your Pirate four peg-limbs. Maybe make him a Street Justice/Willpower melee to.. er.. boot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, if you wanted to be a little tougher, you could go with a dual pistols/something/ninja tool mastery sentinel to also get guns and a sword. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
