oi, Al. mate, my posts are up here. stay... focused!

5A doesn't do much and 5B gives the option of carrying a heavier weapon e.g. Fury with Venom.

I do that



I would say 'fite me IRL' but I might get beaten up.

Finally some movement here :-D
1st and more importantly both "offers" accepted, rippaz are advancing too much lately, gotta shoot some.
And if i lose it won't be because some husks weren't floating around :-P
fun power? my shaman ain't no clown

BTW, what's the "optimal" evolution for those superfluous 6 points???

My human adept has 6 ranks in shockwave and 0 points in warp. 

How do you know they went 5A?

Yup

Yup ima one of them 

i kinda thought that but event that Valkyrie-wannabe, she's a gap closer. cast dc, detonate, get into AF range detonate again. AF+throw spam is way more spammy. There's no big reason to recast dc is there?





Hold your horses. no go. Ima next. mine's earlier look in the phof thread. Andy, Ninja you better kindly join the bloody queue.

But doesn't answer why you need to recast dc in the first place. both fury and prollector have better ways for detonations spam. and huntress has tc plus she ain't so much about boom booms, she's after the big game. slow on the other hand might be situationally helpful to split a bulletsponge from a spawn for instance/funnel them up. agree, not a deal breaker either way... kinda curious.

So. Thus far we have a dc+throw ranged fury wielding something heavy who relies on DC as a primer. Uhm...

i m still undecided in those instances between damage barrel (+15% dmg vs everything but armor, almost no loss vs armor with warp ammo) and piercing barrel

Ah i knew you'd have some to say and share the insight here. And yeah i kinda lost half of my question along the way, about recasts i mean. it's why do you have to do that in a hurry and so often i.e. does 5b really make that much difference. anyways. i kinda figured bugless prollector build may come up. cool. So with the practical rifle build, what's the approach here? a good ol weapon platform? i see you went 5b there so aren't we  supposed to capitalise on rampup benefits as opposed to frequent reacsts

edit: re swarms. can't get over the fact he pulls them outta his ass either lol

hah. same. sorta find that piercing barrel feels a tad ooomfier for some reason. plus. it opens up the ammo slot for elementals. considering most of the time it's the power-bsaed characters who frequently need los piercing is not much of an issue either. hvb gives just enough ammo mitigation to feel okay too. but platinum crabs and scions still take forever and can go fuck themselves

Here is an epeen post the result from a recent match with the PPR Soldier. A trio on Vancouver, the Juggy helped just keep shit around him so that makes it a little easier, but I've used it in matches with no Juggs to good effect. The other kit ironically enough was another bug w/ SS and used Ascension Mode (I use neither) and Acolyte/CSMG. The only thing it struggles with are big shields like Fatlas or Prime, but if you DC that'll keep them from regenerating while PPR ammo regens. Once things get to armor they simply melt. Phantoms are:P with the bug. PAIV or CMIV are up to you.
