Yeah, that seems to be one of the few good things in stock! Apart from an energon crossbow, direct current electrical laser and those double barreled plasma shell shotguns. Geez! What a mouthful!

The DBPS Shotgun comes highy recommended, but at that price they should be called 'Platinum Plated' Shotgun's.

A good solid weapon, possibly slightly faster than a Dol, just not quite as damaging.

I agree. Gold plated and diamond encrusted.

Energon crossbows get no love any more. :-(

by **Mime** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 7:09 am

Ah that's not true. I've got one!
Even if it is only one..........

They're probably a good stepping stone for BB's. Saving that 1 point in skill can go to speed or strength in preparation for BB's.

by **Mime** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 7:12 am

Yeah, that's true. It might burn a hole in your wallet but it is worth it.

Well .. yeah. I kinda forget about limited energon supplies. :oops:

by **Mime** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 7:21 am

Well if you have no energon, then swipe it!

After all you are a Decepticon.

You have been level 909 for far too long.

I prescribe a few weeks of 'getting back to your roots' and resetting your aussie ass back to level 3 for a bit.

Its fun here, the Cons and the bots are evenly matched!
as most bots are too scared to level up past 2 :-P

I tried level 3 for a couple of days the other week. Sure it was fun fighting a whole bunch of other people but it's even more fun beating down Hoistimus and CJB .... and I suppose before he gets all upset and sues me for neglect, Whisper as well.

Oh well, more XP for me... :twisted:

High Str - cause that's in stock!

(STILL bemoaning the lack of Dol's, Battle Blades, Poisous Paralysers, etc...)

Now High Str & Battles Blades......Oh Yeah!

more courage would help you alot if you took the two stats you had in endurance on Ultratron primal and put it into courage you'd find you mech getting attacks in more often same sort of thing for Starflare and Stormcracker maybe take a point or two off speed and put it into courage it will probably help you out alot. hope it helps

Drop the endurance and invest in strength as well. At your level, END doesn't do much anyway.

Endurance isn't that important at our levels. You might want it towards level 2 but right now it's better that you either save the xp or dump it into speed or courage. Also the following charectors are better off unarmed: Ultratron Primal, Heavytreck,Ultra Dragontron, Medictron, Construcatatron. The reason is with the 3-4 strength your doing more damage unarmed then with your weapons.

atm i'm working on getting my 5 lvl 2's to lvl 3 which is a slog considering the over crowding on the bot side

Hey Burn, I didn't mean to offend the higher ups in any means but as this was more of a "private" club. If I have anything against anyone in the game, it is myself because I wish I was up there with you all. The other thing that has been pointed out is we are in a different world than the rest of the higher ups. There are those who have experience with setups at this level and who know what to do. Now, I know you and others like Steve have tons more experience in almost everything of HMW but the original idea for this thread is in response to the higher Gentleman's club. It isn't a competition but just a place where those who might have felt left out to come. As for those who want to go into the major cross level missions, they enter at their own risk.

The "Gentleman's Club" is just for laughs. I mean come on, we changed it to level 6+ to keep Dynamax out! (That's not discriminating, that's just me picking on Dynamax again

) But in all seriousness if a player of lower levels posted there I doubt anyone would complain. And if people really do have a problem with the "Gentleman's Club", take it to a Mod. It's just a thread for the higher up plays to call for opposition and/or support.

To call this a "safe refuge from higher ups" plus other comments you've made lead me to believe you obviously had a problem in the past, that seems to be a common thing around here, people just don't get over things.

All that aside, just because some of us don't have bots that low doesn't mean our experience should be ignored. Handing out wisdom for current levels is fine, but who's going to be there to help people when they level up?

This is an open community. Some people believe that elitism exists, well i'd like to prove otherwise.

Now ... bring some of those newer players in here and get them to introduce themselves so we can get to know them! :grin:

My team is reborn in name and background. They will have all new alt modes before sunday once I figure out which ones of the new ones I want. I'll probably stick with about the same types but different looks.
