DCUO felt like a really deep X-Box twitch game more than a simplified MMO. If you like X-Box type games and want a little more depth, it rocks. If you like MMOs, you'll be as bored as I was in 10 minutes. I like arcade games - just can't play them for hours like I do with really deep MMOs. YMMV
Great idea - ty. You nailed it - every failure was a timed alert (or recruiting which is basically timed) and we could not DPS the villain all the way down. We failed with the guy at 5% health more than once. So I felt like we just needed a little extra...something. I'll try invuln in hybrid to kick out more DPS. Thanks…
Thanks! Glad I am not losing my mind. Not yet. What alternative would you suggest for the chest and waist cape? The closest I found was the Oriental Vest and it has more of a martial arts feel than a Sorcery feel.
Thank you for this build! I restarted my level 40 Sorc with this build and love it. One question though - my Sorc is my ONLY 40. So while I am focused on teaming, I do like to solo some as well. Would you tweak anything for solo? Add another damage or pet power maybe? Thanks again.
TY Ravenforce! I thought I heard something - that makes it very clear. So my Bindings of Arbitron are still useful - good. They're actually only moderately useful but dang if they don't make me feel like Dr. Strange :)
Thank you! I also did not realize Grab Alerts can be longer. I can see myself queuing for Grab in a heal/support role and the shorter Alerts in more of a DPS role. That is very helpful. One more question about level 40: I see people saying they fought this bad guy or that one to test a build. Are people soloing Lairs at…
I've been gone a while - did not know TK now had a ranged option - awesome! Curious - in a TK build I assume I use Ego Form, TK Blast (or Burst?) for AoE, TK Assault or TK Lance for Single Target, Ego Reverb is the Energy Unlock, and Ego Surge for the Active Offense. What would you use for the active defense and the heal?…
Thanks! Great ideas. Question: if I mix up Force, Electricty, and beam/telepathy powers, then I think Elec Form does me no good, right? Would I just go with a defensive passive so I am free to just pick powers that look cool?
My 40 is a healer so I usually spam and see if anyone wants to do Comic series or Adventure Packs because they are fun - to be honest I stopped looking at rewards a while ago so I have no idea if I get gear or money - I just like healing teams :) I think I need to learn: - what are the 40 dailies - how to the Until and…
If you look in the sticky for Pulswave guides he has a build called Hexed. Great build, plus he goes over pet and aura strategies in the write up. Helped me a lot :)
I thought an AOE heal like Vala's Light would be useful in Alerts and Boss fights, but I have very little experience. If everyone is usually spread out I'll skip it - thanks!
I've tried that Taco and I think I just stink as an artist and/or CO creator...guy. Any chance you could upload one of your better creations to give us a benchmark? Also, as a quick aside, thank you for all the in game advice you've been giving me and my CoX brethren in the CoX channel - greatly appreciated.
I agree - I'd love to see someone who really know the CO system do a generic Female and Young Female face that looks like any of the CoX faces for a starting point.
Thanks all. I am Gold with Freeform so I think I'll skip the unlock and see if I can just make it work by staying in support role whether I am soloing or teaming.
Thank you! What about a debuffer/buffer? Is that of value? Or should I just be a DPS machine? I do have a 50 Sorc with PRE Superstatted, so maybe that is my team/support character and my other is pure dps.
