I miss you too, Dape.

I think you'd make an AWESOME super hero...
And there is noone saying "END IS UP YOU DORKS!!!! oh, dammit, wait a sec... well you don't deserve end anyway!"
And btw...
FING 4!!!!
And after last night I'm thinking more about checking out CoH till frontiers comes out. All my toons are real good at keep/tower warfare and totally suck at open field warfare.
I don't think its possible to beat a high RR mid group in open field. CC doesn't stick on their tanks and they got way too much CC to use against us. In 5 fights I don't think I got to cast more than 1 spell or shoot more than 1 arrow at them.
I was pissed at the time, but now that I think about it, if a group of mostly RR3 RR4 hibs, running without group purge, could beat a group of RR8 RR9 mids then something would be wrong.

And after last night I'm thinking more about checking out CoH till frontiers comes out. All my toons are real good at keep/tower warfare and totally suck at open field warfare.Arb animist, Chanter, Druid (who you don't like) are all great open field chars.
I don't think its possible to beat a high RR mid group in open field. CC doesn't stick on their tanks and they got way too much CC to use against us. In 5 fights I don't think I got to cast more than 1 spell or shoot more than 1 arrow at them.PuG vs PuG it's pretty even, but against Geno before and Radar now, they're just too well formed. I got a 'good' mez on them yesterday but I still died right away.
I was pissed at the time, but now that I think about it, if a group of mostly RR3 RR4 hibs, running without group purge, could beat a group of RR8 RR9 mids then something would be wrong.How does a RR3 druid not have GP? That is the first thing they should buy. If you didn't have a druid, then you can't really complain too much. Druids are the lifeblood of your group.
Yeah exactly on the Druid thing. I was all frustrated then realized our only druid was an alt/tabbed buffbot for the first few fights, and I felt silly for being frustrated.
I guess by "all my toons" I meant animist and ranger. :D The other ones are all dusty. My chanter could be good at open field, he has moc so he can do the bomber thingy, but he is wearing epic armor which is so last year. ;)
Animist can be good at open field with the right RAs and stuff, but not close to what he is in keep warfare. I love playing the animist in keep warfare, attacking or defending he kicks the booty. I have all kinds of confidence playing him in that situation. In open field it depends. If I see them coming from far away I can really rock. That's why I'm better against albs then mids. Albs do the bolt mezz so the fight starts when they far away and even if I'm mezzed at first I usually have time to do stuff before they are on me. I can drop a few shrooms between me and them. They are more for psychological effect then for real damage. It sort of draws the battle line and makes the enemy hesitate before rushing me. And that's really all I need. Then I can place myself away from the main fighting and do my backloaded damage thingy (bomber bomber bomber, lifetap lifetap lifetap, so all spells hit enemy at same time making it hard to keep him alive with heals). I get to use all my artifact toys and stuff. And by the time a tank gets on me, they are all spread out and I might be able to do the moc lifetap trick.
But none of that works with mids. They are usually on top of us and have us CCed before we know they are there. There is no chance to set up my mini wall of 3-4 shrooms to define the battle lines. There is no chance for me to back away from the main fight and pick out my targets. Hell, there is no chance for me to do anything. Every fight I was mezzed before I knew we were in a fight, if mezz broke, the instant I wound up for a cast I would be CCed again (is mid insta-mezz and cast-mezz on different immunity timers?) Then I was shield stunned and killed before stun wore off. And with Goopia and Kestrell hitting me for 700 every hit, despite my maxed resists, the MoC lifetap trick wouldn't do poop.
Again though, I guess I shouldn't use my experiences against a perfectly formed group of RR8 RR9 mids to say my toon isn't good at open field. But man that was frustrating. Felt so good at the keep fight later against the albs when I could actually do stuff instead of look at the zzzzzz above my head and wait for the tank train to insta kill me.

I was involved in an AWESOME somewhat open-field battle near bolg on NF....mids & albs did have a tower to run to if the had to & the hibs had bolg....but for the most part everyone stayed outside. It was close to 40 albs v 40 mids v 40 hibs. Lasted a good 15 min b4 teams retreated to their respective keep/towers. But my NS is not an open field 'zerg' fighter...I resorted to DDing & the occasional PA on a caster that strayed from his zerg.

Yeah, i got a scrapper with claws and regeneration power pool. It's great playing him. Speaking of which, Figgy!! invite DarkJustice to LoL next time you see me on him!
And who needs to shoot sticks when you can tear up a peice of the pavement and throw it at them! Or summon a pool table and hurle it at them!
That last power is pretty cool, summons a random object into being and you hurl it at them with your telekenetic powers. Seen a car, a t.v., a safe, and a pool table with it.
AND they have nipples in the game! You look close enough to a heroine with a tight shirt and you just gotta ask them if it's cold outside! What more reason then that Boomy!?!?
