i love mob control for me that is usually my primary focus as my main attack is lev and it seems to do a decent job of keeping everyone's energy high for all but the toughest bosses

The Batarang Iconic Power is another great little mob stun attack.

Actually, what side are most of you Death & Glory PC players on? I haven't done anything Villain side yet, so I might play Villain there and play Hero on Zero Hour.

I just use d3doverrider to force vsync, which works fine.

I've barely logged in, but things have finally gotten sorted since I bought it last weekend. I've got a ton of free time right now so I'll probably be on a lot in the coming days.

If you're just starting out, doing the low level missions (levels 4-9) and you're not running into a lot of people, then consider yourself lucky. Getting smacked up before you've even learned to walk is no fun. Once you're around level 10 and higher, the missions that you'll be going on will be in areas with much higher traffic. For example, at Metropolis Hospital, you'll be butting heads with villains/heroes over conflicting objectives.

Be sure to get into the GAF league - I'm not freelancing and helping everyone I come across anymore because I've got a new character I'm working on, but the rest of the guys are pretty helpful.

Being pure illusion, I basically am constantly spamming the shurikens. It only has one mass stun ability but it only lasts for like 1-2 seconds, though the Illusion tree seems to be focused on weakening enemies more than anything.

Shuriken spam though works well since it's power cost is low and it woks as an aoe at the same time so all i good.

I think people don't realize the role they are supposed to play and building their character towards it till they hit 30, as before that, it's not really that important. Never found the alerts pre lvl 30 to even really require the need of the roles all that much to complete them, but once you start doing hard modes and lvl 30 content, the roles become very important.

Anyways going back and playing my Hero now a bit and really enjoying it, the game does a good job of giving you a different experience between heros/villains, though not a fan of the music on the hero side :p

i like terror + phantom flames, but it doesn't give energy regen like the telekenisis + pyro, shuriken mainly useful for artifacts comparitively, so yeah i'm more tk

Yea I stayed away from TK tree because I wanted to base my character off 'The Shadow', my all time favorite pulp hero, so I went with dual wielding and illusion powers. I like to stick to themes with my mmo characters even if it sometimes seems to put them at a disadvantage.

Have you been doing alerts while you level up? They earn you tons of xp rewards that doing them by the end I had bunch of quests still left to do when I hit 30. Also doing bounties also earns pretty big xp bonuses.

Guys who start out with Fire as their main power have no idea how easy they have it. Both of their trees compliment each other. My other characters (Mental, Nature) don't share that luxury...

Heretics is the villain KJ Legion. Friend the following people (type "/friend name" in game) and then message the first person you see online ("/t name"); Enchantress, Verdandi, Penumbra, and Redeyez. If you're online right now I think Penumbra might still be online.

Just got into it. Have 3 character going right now. A big demon hero (WW as mentor), small bane-like villan (Joker Mentor) and a medium classic-type villan (lex luthor mentor). All are around level 17. I'm really enjoying the game. Here's hoping the keep content coming.

Ok it seems that Taunt patch fixed Fire tank Agro big time, things attack me now! So I was planning on going back to staffs because of it but, well I got an Epic Tank bow, 19.2 DPS more than my other tank weapons and increases my dominance in tank mode by 64. Yeah, its too good not to use. They also seem to have patched in
Black Adam
so the gates on his room now close when fighting him, so that fight is no Longer EZ mode.

Also did Batcave and the second boss dropped no loot or marks. Not happy about that but I walked out this week with a tank bow and I can get my second piece of T2 on Sunday (Would of been Saturday but the second boss didnt give me any ****in marks!)

From what I gather the loot bugs happen when people try to loot before the boss actually spawns loot, so they are holding down the button as mob dies. I tell people in the raid not to do that and give it some time. Haven't had any problems since.

There's aPC andPS3 code, PS3 code probably only works on EU consoles. Let me know if you want it.

All gone.

I wouldn't mind giving the PC code a go. I don't have any one-hand characters, but I could always make one :p

Also, Deathstroke is awesome.

One of the oft forgotten perks about this game is how easy it is to respec. I have done it 3 times with Fatalie and am thinking of doing another today... to see if there is a better way to contribute as a gadget controller I may try the gauss grenade for stuns. I am enjoying the taser more than the sticky bomb simply because it helps rid the tank off mobs, albeit one at a time.

My GF hates this game.

One bug I have had is that you'll see the alert-end loot but not be able to choose a roll -- you still controller a character. This really sucked when I got it at the end of Smallville when a perfect Controller item was up.
