I didn't stay much longer than you did, Scott. The Villains did manage to win a battle or two, but it seems like the heroes had a lot more holds than we did, and that made the difference since I didn't have any breakfrees...
The lag made it all but impossible to do anything useful either.

You know, all inspirations were available at the stores but I didn't once think to get any. Hell, it was hard enough getting back 'in' after buy 10 enhancements at a time. Bet the smarter villains filled up their inspirations slots with breakfrees.

Not sure Ir eally care about any other PvP event other than tomorrow night for Statesman's invasion of the Rogue Isles.
I just want the chance to beat the crap out of him...over and over...and over...and over again.
I would die a happy camper if I could just do that

Well, after something like 700+ times trying to connect I finally got in and played Gung for a bit. He got a mission in Founders to hunt 35 Crey. The only Crey he could find were all conning purple (Gung is 33). So I decided to try it out and unbelievably he was able to take out 10, including 1 lt and 1 boss, before I got too tired to care and logged out. His build still seems to be holding up but I notice a lot more END usage.

Well, I got stuck with the update last night on one of my machines and didn't get the chance to try it out, LL.
I'm sure the devs had their reasons but if they don't explain them well enough, it just looks as if they want to enforce a style of play that many people don't want.

Dang, Scott. I don't know how you were able to run Gung so well last night.
I took Bluette into Crey's Folly just now. The first time in, I found some Crey that were green to me, and sniped one. Unfortunately, right then I got attacked by some DE swarm and was killed by BLUE Bees! So I got back, kill the DE, and turn my attention back to the Crey. This time they're white.
I pop two of the smaller damages and hit a white level minion with snipe... and he still has a thread of health left! I kill him, but then the rest of them are on me, and I have to run because I just can't do enough damage to them to survive and I don't have any greens.
Bluette doesn't have the option for buildup because she's got devices secondary. I could take aim but I don't know if that's going to do enough good to bother with.
There's a lot of anger still going on, and I'm hoping that if there's not a rollback of ED-- not likely given the track record of the Devs-- then maybe there will be a tweaking that will make my higher level toons fun again.
(As an aside, I've been reading the ED thread today. Someone there said that when he went to cancel his account, the web page for doing so was temporarily down. It's back up now as I checked, but I do wonder if there's going to be a hemoraging of cancelled subscribers.)
I think that one of the problems the Devs have now is that people are dealing with nerf fatique. So many people are sick of respeccing their toons to be able to make them playable again.

Well it wasn't as easy as it has been in the past to solo Gung and I would rather have test him against Crey of his level instead of 4 to 5 levels higher. But he did manage to not die (although he ran away more times than I could count).
EAP on the other hand appears to be gone. But he may have been with I5 since I haven't really played him. He is nowhere near as powerful as he once was. And remember he gained levels quicker than even Gung did but on his own. Maybe I'll recreate him as a Mastermind.

I did respec Mysa, Mon and Marvel Kid. Mon defintely does less damage, but his endurance is much better so he can last lots longer.
It was sad to see him struggling with a group of 6 even con CoTs (1 guide, 1 behemoth overlord, 2 earth thorns, and 2 of the new nerva spectral "somethings") but he did manage to put them all away without dying and still had a full endurance bar when it was over, even though he had both invince and unyielding running. Of course his health bar got into very dangerous territory a few times so it was close.
Marvel Kid is the same build but a lvl 26 instead of 36 so i expect that he will have the same issues. Haven't had Mysa out yet to test things out like her heals so I'm not sure how that's been affected. Didn't repec Condo yet, so I lost that free one but he had 3 total so i still may use one after I check him out.

I could still respec Edgar but I don't know that it would be worth it. I guess Dark Melee/Dark Armor is not like it once was. There hasn't even been a build guide for once since I3.
