Wow I was thinking of coming back but just seeing you post is enough to prevent me from looking for familiar faces on the forums much less logging in. You are one of the worst people I've ever met in an internet community and, bizarrely, one of the most vocal about how one should behave in said.
As someone who once attempted to educate the unwashed masses on A2B, I'm going to drop in from my status as ceiling cat to point out what everybody already knows: listen to drunk. Remember that story of a bunch of blind guys describing an elephant? One is touching the trunk, one the tail, one the ear, one the leg, and…
The old Reman/Romulan 3 piece, Covariant Capacitance Cell, was attached to just the shield. This is a fairly crappy design which I've ranted about before. It got a change in S7 to go from only giving empty capacity to giving actual temporary shield points. It never justified running 3 pieces, but as a feature on a shield…
Lol, just noticed the change to the Bort 3 piece gives the pet BoP APB. All 3 would cut into survivability, but still. APB would squeak even a little more damage out of it and you'd have the Snare up every 4 minutes. Speaking of which, I'm just waiting for the rise of the Command Bort to finally allow the most legendary…
Let me tell you something, pendejo, you pull any of your crazy consoles with us, you pull your TIF out in the queues, I'll take it away from you and stick it up your plasma exhaust and pull the frakkin trigger till it goes click. You said it man. Nobody fraks with de cheesus.…
I can be convinced. There's plenty of examples of me changing my mind and admitting I'm wrong, though you might have to check the archives under a different handle. Sometimes ad hominem is mean spirited, sometimes it's to cover up when one side has a weak argument, and sometimes it's relevant. You are not qualified to…
So you are still checking this thread? And you haven't responded to the fact that your own combat logs show your premise was flawed? This thread reeks of the tale as old as time practice of getting killed in pvp and running to the boards with a tirade of how the game is flawed. The game is flawed, just not the way you…
Global, shared, system... if you really care to use the right words the truth is out there. But, honestly, nobody around here cares to so just go with this: when a power hits the point where the cooldown can't be reduced any more the UI power icon will switch from a spinning clock to a draining horizontal line. If you're…
This guy literally did not. In your mind, it went like this: two fighters walk to the center of the ring. One fighter throws one punch with superhuman strength which connects with the other fighter's jaw. The crowd roars, the other fighter staggers, wondering what could be his secret. Steroids? Crack? Robot? In reality it…
Or it does the opposite. By showing the players that somebody is paying attention to power creep. Then again I'm pretty sure you were the one who demanded the outrageous healing from the Valdore console stay in game since that's how it went live and you deserved to keep it that way.
This means you can't lock somebody's weapons out more than once every 20 seconds, right? Assuming you crit the moment it refreshes. So base 4 sec, no points in subsystem repair, the worst case is I have 16 seconds to shoot before my weapons go down again. I guess this is their way of avoiding a repeat of a shared Elachi…
Skimmed much of this thread, but let me just ask if we can all take a moment and give thanks for this? Ok, duration will need to be tuned, but hallelujah none the less. Hawk, would you consider buffing the Nukara 2 piece Weapon Stabilizer hugely, to like 1-2 seconds? Think about it people, you have your primary set but…
http://thissler.com/2014/03/15/keybinds-useless-junk-or-must-haves-in-sto/ I have learned to adopt Thissler's definitions and not gloss over the importance of the semantics. Not just because he's the uncle I always wanted, but because when trying to explain cooldowns I realized that the only clear way to do it was to use…
Kerrat is to PvP what Heinz ketchup is to tomatoes. Vaping is a problem. Not why: People dying too fast. (This is personal preference, there's no way to make everybody happy, if the game is functioning as intended and you don't like it, find another game.) Why: Devs have little understanding of how vaping actually goes…
This is a description of most days I have in an escort. There's another level, though. Anytime I had the great privilege to queue on the same team as a mean motor scooter named Blackjack I always tried to keep up. The most amazing thing would happen: shots lined themselves up. His approach always flowed right into the next…
Broton Parrage. lol. Gotta get my Broton Destabilizer Module. This rare piece of appropriated technology harnesses the power of Axe body spray and popped collars in a focused beam of swagger and smacktalk. Warning, while operating avoid contact with Anti-Brotons, the primary source of which is known to be Kathryn Janeway.…
This is neither the place nor the time for a rational response. Please go somewhere else if you are going to keep calm and pew pew. Now, omgwtfbbqtheENDofSTOisNIGH! Seriously, though, do you think they'll use it to just plain do away with factions? Like open up ESD and Qo'nos to both factions and your choice at character…
Yes, Steve, the low cool down on RSP is attracted to bridge officer abilities of the same sex. Seriously? What year is it? The PvP community has "standards," a term used as loosely as a prom queen finger banged by Godzilla, but it's still not ok to use "TRIBBLE" that way. Also, yeah, JHEC is cool, I've been wanting to run…
Not the first time this has come up. I think anybody who comes to this build through honest means has already had community opinion ruined for them by those who abused spiraling and memories of Sprinkles running it.
Dear Forum User, You have noticed a change in forum policy which accompanied the move to Arcgames. Threads with simply "Title" will no longer be accepted. Please use the format "PvP: Title" to identify a thread as relating to PvP. This is due to the fact that forum policy will now mirror developer policy of being unable to…
Hey Bort, I know it's going live but you seem to be monitoring this thread, so... Is this a change to a standard per cycle proc or is this per plink like the Valdore console? Once per second seems to suggest per plink, but I gotta ask. Thanks!
Yeah. And you said all the stuff from my post before that one already too. I'm starting to think this guy is a sock puppet for uhmari or sprinkles. Next he's going to explain tech doffs to me. One angle we haven't tried is explaining effective shield points. I doubt it will work though. This guy is high on the smell of his…
You conveniently ignored the rest of my post. Maintaining shield resist levels contributes more to survival than reactive "heals." A resist that's never active is no good. The value of EPTS is not the heal, it's the resist. The idea that you think the way to survive a spike is to heal after it is telling. Stop with the…
Bind the first 4 slots of tray 6 to WASD. Place 2 copies each of 2 EPTx abilities in the four slots. Below is the cycle you'll see on the cooldowns, I've picked EPTS and EPTW as an example. Time......EPTS1....EPTS2....EPTW1....EPTW2....Active buffs 0sec...... 45s........30s........15s..........15s..........EPTS…
hereticknight is correct regarding the EPTx cycling. 2 by 2 was the standard cruiser rotation before the fifth seal was broken and tech doffs were released. This is wrong, as are your other posts regarding the cycling. I will say that I don't share hereticknight's personal preference on A2B and HE/TSS. A proper double A2B…
