I know we don't see eye to eye, but keep it civil or this will have to close.

It's not going to stop, so you might as well ignore her and not escalate the matter.

Check your AP or Quest tabs. If either of those are full, you'll get that message.

Well sure, if the PU had to worry about taking damage from her own blast.

My personal bias would prefer to see PU as a pure long range class. Convert all of her melee stuns into Range Stuns. Considering her weapon of choice is a sniper rifle, likes head-shots from 500 meters, likes blowing shit up, and she dislikes hand to hand combat, it seems counter intuitive for her to have melee attacks in general.

They're most likely using higher fade and/or using passive if you're not seeing them in Arkana form. I have my fade at ranks 2 or 3 with no passive and that should be mre than enough detect vs conceal difference to see me in arkana form stealth. I've seen Italy2 rape JangNara's SW through stealth thanks to detection cocoon. And Jang had minimal concealment at the time.

Same here. i too have multiple sets for different occasions. Plus I don't recall the detection cocoon being any different from pre-patch and SW conceal hasn't changed since pre-patch.

Just be sure you have a means of gathering resources effectively by the time you hit the upper levels. That last thing anyone would want is for a new player to be in the position that they rushed up the tiers and end up being so undergeared that PvE is too difficult and end up quitting as a result of it.

PU: Vicious and deadly, the Punisher possesses incomparable long-ranged firepower. She sews discord, death, and confusion with her laser-like accuracy. For those who fear what they cannot see, the Punisher is there worst nightmare. At range, the Punisher will kill everything she sees - then shoot every corpse just to make sure: Ranged AoE: 3/5 Ranged Atk: 2/5 Melee AoE: 0/5 Melee AoE 0/5 Special: 3/5 Debuff: 1/5 Buff: 1/5 DE: Endowed with the strongest constitution of all the Arkana, the Defender shields her sisters from grievous Harm. She accomplishes this by drawing enemies off with a ridiculously large blade, which, in a pinch, is also very effective at rending monsters limb from limbs. Ranged AoE: 0/5 Ranged Atk: 0/5 Melee AoE 2/5 Melee Atk: 2/5 Special: 3/5 Debuff: 2/5 Buff: 1/5 Funny how DE has higher ratings in Debuffs than PU when the latter has better debuffs and has more of them. lol

When you've got heavily armored infantry that can't move, they start looking like bells to be cracked

I don't think it's that they hate DE. It's more like having to get accustomed to an overlooked class that has become more relevant. Though part of me wishes PU had a skill or two that can fire while cloaked without breaking the stealth condition. lol

Misread part of the situation. Think Uzo is including In Plain Sight to break that 14k EVA mark. HE doesn't specifically state that it was from Cocoon alone. Even without In Plain SIght, WH whould have a percentage of landing a pull in the high 60s% to low 70s%. THis assumes the WH has full Rank 2 Uni ACC Jewels, perfect ACC Randoms and Little Drummer Arkana Title. Give her a ME buff, that changes things a bit.

If you're using full Iota Gear, then this makes sense. Some of the Eta pieces give more EVA than Iota

Not necessarily. DE was among the more overlooked classes in the discussions throughout this forum and in game pre-patch. Also among the least played. Many of the changes were in response to the comments on the forums, so I'd like to believe. DE just didn't come up nearly as frequently until recently.

Well, based on observation, a DE without damage is a near useless class. Ones I've seen in the past that went full tank were just that, moving meat shields. They also have minimal to no crowd control. That leaves them gaining more damage to be useful again, more crowd control capability, or back to the dark ages of being a moving meat shield to be ignored. Perhaps her damage is too high, but there is a need for it to be high enough to be a threat on the field if she's to not have crowd control as a melee class. Aggro doesn't do squat in pvp.

*ME shines in Brighter Red* She must die! lol

This I definitely agree if using a PvP skill build. Not completely sure if you're using a full Damage WH. DE might be a good PvE class now

And use a google email address if you aren't already. I recall there being issues with Yahoo.

Archeron for the potential of getting Uni costumes outside of BGs. Drasilmarsh Hard Mode for Crafting Accessories. The Kappa armor/weapon Pieces should be easy to get elsewhere by looting Amara Bosses. I'd do the DM hard Mode on the side while bosses are down and as a fall back in the event you don't get the items you need from drops.

You don't put point in mech skills. That's decided on the mech you own. Health Mastery is pointless on SW as she's a really squishy class with high damage output. The only passives people tend to invest in, as SW, are Damage or Concealment.

Use Void Slash to Shadow Strike in group PvP while the opponent is not moving around all that much. That's hard to do, without making yourself more vulnerable, reliably when the opponent is moving around and in fewer numbers. One of the most common entrances of a rotation is secret charge to either Twilight Explosion or Deathblow Also Void Slash is not accessible until Lv 40s.

Post what you have so the other SW players can look. Max Slaughter, Miss Misery, and Escape Artist for starters.

By the way, what's that icon between the Wireless and the Battery on that screenshot you posted? Same question between "ENG" and the sound control? What is ENG anyways?
