Try CoH, but it forces you to play certain ATs in PvP.


I've played CoH on and off, could never get into PvP there for some reason. Mostly because Defenders that weren't rad weren't useful. I had a Kin/Dark.

I loved all the variations of Necros I went through in GW. Necro/War. Necro/Mes and my favorite Necro/Rit.

Those were creative builds. Things designers never even saw coming.

Found more information:

Good stuff on some of the condition and boon mechanics.

I dunno, I thought the creators did that on purpose. All Professions had some type of farming in certain area builds. Later on with the ritualist and the spirit spammer builds were strait forward farming builds, the devs had to see that coming.

You really think they saw the 55 Monk coming? Some builds yes, but that's EQ Bard twisting creative.

Never been accepted to a Beta. How do they usually select people to participate? Is it just random or is their a particular factor they look at?

By all accounts, Random.

I've signed up for a lot and gotten into about half.

I really hope i get this one.

I should probably admit I signed up twice. Haha.

different computers? I think it takes your MAC address during analysis...double regs may negate your chances

They try to pull a good sample size with different hardware quality. Most people who have signed up for Beta probably have high-end computers like I do, so that might decrease my odds of getting selected.

No... I actually got an email to sign up for Beta after I'd already signed up. Guildception?

It at least reminded me that I'm on their mailing list, since they never send me anything else.
