Marine Affinity - archetype?


Recommended Posts

decent so far, and themed, on corruptor with water blast.

 

the bubble is good. the heal dmg down component is autohit.  tidepool works well with the waterpool (and scourge) as you'd imagine.

I'm just trying to figure out how I summon these fish through the floor of this high-rise office building.

 

....but seriously, MM seems coolest to me too. The problem is none of the MM sets go well thematically with Marine.

Mercenaries, duh!  They're Marines.  Semper Fi!

or

Necro are dead pirates!

or

Beasts and be a master of land, air, and sea!

I know it is very early into the release, but is one archetype standing out as being more simpatico to Marine Affinity than the others?

Why does Atlas smell like seawater?

I'm thinking more about sea creatures that can move on land, such as Lungfish (which can move awkwardly), Crocodiles, Snakes, Amphibians (Hippopotamus), Epaulette Shark, Giant Crabs and "Elden Ring Crayfish," Penguins -- to name a few animals that are sea-based but can also live and move (with varying degrees of efficacy) on land to make sense of them being spawned and following you around on land.

 

Animating a minion set like that would most likely be a nightmare, but a person can dream, right?

It is a little early, however I would think a number of MM primaries would mesh well with it (necro and bots come to mind...especially with the +END from Toroidal Bubble).  It seems like it can do well both in melee and out of melee (beyond whitecap).  I feels like a powerset which has a lot of useful powers which means .... tight builds.  I have a number of thoughts on some interesting combos where I'm thinking of corruptor\defenders with PBAOE nukes to combine with whitecap (the usual suspects .... fire, dark, sonic, dual pistols, and rad).  Time will tell which one feels the strongest and ... importantly fun.

 

Personally I have a number of these in the works, but currently I'm having a lot of fun with my fire/marine controller :).

As it was foretold in the Ancient Tomes:

Clown Summoning as a new MM Primary.  Just imagine.

 

T1: Throw Pie
T2: Call Clowns (Happy, Sad, Angry)
T3: Throw Wrench
T4: More Comedy (Equip)
T5: Encourage Clowns (shoot 1 random Clown, locks out summons for 30s, remaining Clowns +50% Damage 30s buff)
T6: Call Mimes (idle animation have them mimic each other)
T7: More Drama (a little car rolls up and out pour 10 or so Clowns, similar to Thugs Gang War)
T8: Call Killer Clown
T9: More Tragedy (Equip)

No kidding. I ran a couple DFBs with a new Sentinel. Half of each team were Marines. We beat up the bad guys while taking a bubble bath. Our theme song was Rubber Ducky. (Well…it should’ve been).

I thought about making a soldier defender with Marine/AR.

 

I would name him, The Marine Marine.

 

Allow me to suggest the Marinated Marine.  You're welcome.  😎
