Run Type: Office

Division: 1 4

 

Archetype: Controller

Primary Powerset: Plant

Secondary Powerset: Storm

Time: 5:28

Hybrid: Assault Radial Embodiment

Runs: 1

 

General purpose build with very high recharge.  Had a couple of runners flee Freezing Rain that weren't locked down my Roots that took a little extra time to thwack.  I fly (and haven't played in a couple of years), so navigating the office is sometimes a hassle.  It was very hard not to mash my macro for making and consuming red inspirations.  

 

Bosses take too long to melt. I prefer +4/x8 no bosses to +0/x8 with bosses -- took only 3 seconds longer to run. 😛 

 

Also tried the test pylons with the same build:

Time: 1:48

Hybrid: Assault Radial Embodiment

Runs: 1

 

[edit] Changed my division from 1 -> 4, as I didn't use any temp powers.

Alright been a busy as hell week for me IRL so apologies for the delays. Congratulations to @Auroxis and @mezzosoprano for winning the D4 Sentinel and D1 Controller competitions respectfully. I will be in touch to transfer your winnings via the forum dms here.

Due to said IRL roller coaster and others I'll only be posting one time gated bounty for November, one requested by a previous winner. Depending on activity levels I may be swapping to 'first to beat x' bounties in the near future as well. Without further to do.

Post the best Division 5 time of any AT for the month of November.

Start Date/Time: 00:00 UTC, November 1st 2024 See in your time here!
End Date/Time: 00:00 UTC, December 1st 2024 See in your time here!
(In the links, look in the non bold text with your location in it, if anyone has a better translation method, let me know.)

Blast! It looks like my record (and the only record for many months) for Corruptor was beaten. Well done!

Division 5 was brutal (no incarnates, no temps) -- took almost twice as long to down the pylon.  Clearly, no prize for me this month!

 

For fun, I also tried the Office mission, which was a slog without Incarnates.  Bosses took even longer to kill, and endurance consumption was a big problem.

This was a somewhat lucky run. I ran the build with Incarnates and only got as fast as 70s after several attempts.

Hybrid: Active
Build is usable for General Purpose: Yes
Number of Runs Averaged Together: 1
Version: I28P1
Notes: I know of a Fire/Nin that out performs this but Toxins should scale much better in a team and at damage cap.

As a Demons/Marine enjoyer I figured I'd throw an entry in here as well! It's been my favorite thing to play since Marine came out and really does a lot to make MMs shine. I'll probably keep trying just to see if I can't get it any lower, but getting the stars to align with all the procs is so time consuming.

 

Notably, I haven't tried with Enflame or procs in Shifting Tides, but I'm not sure it would shave things down by another second honestly. The proc lottery is silly when times are this low and it's mostly just hoping all the -res fires off on a run for Recluse and his pal to hard carry most of it. I'll give it a few (dozen) tries just to see!

 

The build is Pylon-themed but functional just by using a few unslotters, and is very close to the one I actually run which I've also posted. I respec every other day probably but STILL.

 

Musculature Core

Reactive Radial

Assault Radial (toggled on)

 

Run Type: Vanguard Training Pylon
Archetype: Mastermind
Primary Powerset: Demon Summoning
Secondary Powerset: Marine
Time in seconds: 0:10
Hybrid: Yes (toggled on)
Number of Runs: I lost count!
Version: i28pg1 Beta

Sustainable: Not exactly! Burnout + HoE being what it is and the Bane Spider only lasts 1 min.

Temps: Signature Summon (Tank), Recovery Serum, Envenomed Dagger (threw it at the very last second so I'm not sure it actually counts)

@BRADICALsorry to bee a bother, but would you be able to export your builds as a text or image post? I can't get mids to work on my pc for some reason.

I thought Blaster would be at least in middle place since this AT is the overlord of DPS but… dead last compared to the other records?

 

I am pleasantly surprised with the top Sentinel having comparable time with Scrapper wnd Stalker, and I know well that the Dominator, Crab Spider and Mastermind having the power of pets (with Dominator only having one but make up for it with high damage on their own) for an impressive time, and Controller not far too behind for the same reason so… What does Blaster lacks that prevent any player so far to close gap between it and other all-time records of other ATs?
