Lightning + triple or shock + triple is a very powerful solution and should be part of your arsenal if you want to improve.

I've been playing as a LA charactor for a slight while now, and while it may have been mentioned quite a few times, I'm very curious about the direction they are going. My main concern is how extremly difficult it is to survive as a low-level charcter. There is no real boost for a LA charactor when they are a low level. This is very apparant at the start of waves during which you died previously. Denial 2 is a very hefty thing to buy and isn't available for low level players, so at the start of the wave your pretty much helpless. Something to say might be the use of Globes and what not, but they are really not that effecient until you get a lot of adrenaline and high levels of the adrenaline drips and what not. So my main point is while both medics have the advantage of their infinite healing weapon (a healing flak and your pretty much good to go as long as your decent at picking your fights wisely) and weapon masters can get loaded weapons and start with an array of weapons. My suggestion then is to give the LA charactors a slight boost in the form of a new artifact. The new artifact would brand a weapon as your creation and would cost a certain amount of adrenaline. The weapon will get a slight boost in say it's attack speed and damage, but the real benefit would be in handing it out. Handing out your specially branded weapon would allow you to get a small amount of xp for each kill that weapon makes. This would give the LA a slight bump as a more powerful weapon when they start and don't quite have the adrenaline to MWM it, and it could also give them a bump for xp if they passed it out.

I'm not sure how much coding that would take, but it would make a couple useful advantages. Other charactors could get a slightly more powerful weapon and the LA charactor could get more xp. This encourages other classes to want weapons made the LA player. It also adds a slight bit of strategy in that the LA charactor would have to decide to pass it out or keep it. 

Artifacts is definately tougher starting out. But it's a good thing. It creates options for people who want different challenges. Also, with all the medics, it's not too bad.

The balance of not having vamp or regen is easily made up in the adren and the triple. A monster that goes down in a third of the time is shooting at you 2/3 less. I'm oversimplifying, but that's the general idea. The ability to max weapons or max + 1 is also key.

Artifacts players *must* use the triple and have good overall map knowledge to do well.
 

Ring of fire is easy.....just pull the mobs out of ether seal and dont aggro 2 mobs at once...then have 2 healers, 2 nukers, some tanks and an SS necro on ur team and mission and bonus can be done easily. Hardest mission is hell's Precipice...just cause u can't find many monks there ......hardest bonus is killing glint in dragons lair. Anyways at wat time is the pvp 2day?
