City of Heroes Archer using Rain of Arrows

"It appears that YOU will fight in the shade! Hahaha!"

This is a small video made by request of someone on the CoH official forums who wanted to see what Rain of Arrows looked like. It is not being used under ideal conditions. To get the most of the power, it should be used against huge enemy groups on large teams, preferably with a tank holding aggro so the mobs don't run all over the place. Also nice to have a couple scrappers there to finish off the bosses after I killed everything else outright :p

I am fighting enemies with pretty strong lethal resists, so it's not even doing what it could. It's quite apparent when I am mopping up the bosses, as I can barely scratch them.

Character: Level 36 Archery/Energy Blaster with SOs only.

Song: Pain in the Universe from the Legend of Mana soundtrack.

[gmenification]

this game...does it have pvp?

[adrius]

@gmenification Yes.

[ghoststride]

the only issues i have with CoH is that it gets hella repetitive, the maps are basically the same with a little changes to each, after all these years still only level 50? c'mon.

yes i have played, for about 4 years infact, so dont call me a trial nub or any of that crap. oh and hamidon raid? thats total bullshit.

[adrius]

@ghoststride I agree Hami is stupid. Rikit Mothership raid is fun. The expansion coming up is adding Incarnate levels as an end game, and a ton of new outdoors content that you do to get those incarnate levels, as well as adding an alternate leveling path with new maps (and this isn't even talking about Architect, which we already have).

Please don't waste your time with Champions, this game is a LOT better.

[JacobSheppard]

It's worth it thought.

[superjake360]

@CriminalIntent89 lol? i got all the gear i needed from quests. but the thing is if you do the fun thing called PvP everyone else has *better* gear. i wouldnt DO PvP if i didnt have to. i'd just stick to dungeons. but i didnt have an hour finding a team then another 2 to 3 hours of my life to do dungeons. dont get me wrong it's a great game but it's too time-consuming to do anything fun and not die 20x in 1 BG or finding ass-holes in dungeons and starting all over for a few items for me.

[CriminalIntent89]

@GamersMinion its the same thing wasting time and money to get enhhancements and if youre not a scrub like yourself you gear up fast in wow

[CriminalIntent89]

if youre still paying for a subscription to this game my condolences

[GamersMinion]

@aliG2500 well i didnt say the quests arent boring. what i mean b grind is having to kill people for no reason. in wow the reason is the quests. still thugh all it is, is kill x many people or collect x many items. =/

[aliG2500]

@GamersMinion what are you talking about?! its all about the grind in wow! you have to take out soooooo many guys in order to level, and each fight feels exactly the same as the last; in CoH there is actual variety and fun in each battle and you really have a lot more fun moves to pull of on enemies. in WoW you just get boring spells or boring combat moves that don't look all that special and take forever to kill dudes :/ SNORE. fireball, so original. oh wait! now there's...iceball! woopdidoo!
