  1. Im just wanting to make sure i got this right......If i hit a foe with it then use the attacks that can cause it to spread, they are then hit with a weaker version of it? If i use those same attacks on the ones with the weaker version can they cause a spread too? Is this power worth keeping? I just got it and im trying to understand the best way to use it and how it works. Thanks for the help!
  2. Was wondering what powers should I skip. Im making an Elec/Energy Dom and wanting him to be more of an Offensive damaging Dom. So looking for powers that would fit the offensive play style I have in mind.

    Now this was useful unlike the lame comment prior to it. I know what the powers do but it says nothing about pulsing like Spectral terror. Why do people reply to a post when they have nothing constructive to say?
  4. So what does Elec have to offer....Does it rely on sapping End or sleep? Dont they wake if you attack while they sleep?
  5. Im wanting to make an Electric control toon but not sure which it fits best. Im just coming back to the game after a few months of leave. I have a lvl 15 troller and 2 lvl 50 Doms so I do understand the different play styles but dont know much about Electric control. Please help if you have any insight.
  6. There's a reason why I've been with this game since CoH Beta.....Had to take a small leave due to the new baby. This game keeps getting better and better and all those other games that come out and try to duplicate arent going to be able to keep up.

    Anyway, since my mind/kin build is already tighter than a preacher's mom, I have to figure out 3 powers that don't need slots to be effective. OR i could try to squeeze one or 2 slots out of other powers if i really had to (With the BoTZ nerf, no sense in having that set in hover anymore... prolly just keep the KB prot in it and put the other slots elsewhere...) Just thinking aloud here, don't mind me...

    Siphon power? Could throw an end redux in there, i have enough global acc to take care of accuracy issues...

    Repel? An end hog to be sure, also not to useful most of the time (then again i did take TK >_>)

    Inertial Reduction? Can easily get by with one slot, but then i'd almost never use fly and may as well respec out of that if i hadn't taken it for concept reasons...

    Stealth? Good for a +recharge IO, and not being seen is nice.

    Super Speed? Aleady have siphon speed, though it would make those long trips less boring...

    Recall friend? Combined with the two choices above, it'd be nice to have on TFs to stealth and TP the team, though i suspect a lot of people will go that route, and i'd hate to be redundant.

    Leadership pool? Dunno which power i'd end up skipping (prolly vengeance), but they're end hogs and would kinda cancel out my inherent stamina XD Also don't seem to give as good of a bonus as i thought they did...

    Fighting Pool? Tough and Weave don't offer great bonuses to a controller, Tough seems decent, though... it offers +18.8% res as opposed to weave's 5.6% +Def. I think some people who already have decent stats might be able to use this to soft-cap themselves, but i'm not in that camp. Again, end hogs, though.

    Medicine pool? Useless, especially since there's temp powers now that do the exact same things that i already can't do (Rez, self-heal w/out a target)

    As you can see, this change opens up several options for me. What about you guys? Any powers you wish you could fit in but never could until now? Just going to take 3 powers from the stealth pool and use them as LoTG mules? Let's brainstorm, share and discuss!
    Please fill me in on the new changes coming. Been away for 6 months, just came back last night.
  8. I was wondering if the new changes to the set made it worth taking instead of having to wait 38 lvls for a good power. Which attacks are the bread and butter of the set?

    Also I was wondering if they uped the damage on mind control and was wondering if i should take that or Ice control. Im stuck on which of the 2 i should make with psi.

    All i have to say is WOW! This combo goes together so well. All the kb is great for keeping foes off of you and putting enemies on their back for your imps. Im enjoying this build so much, im actually soloing missions, lol.

    I decided to make it a perma dom and now i se why people go perma, it's a totally different game when perma. You feel sooo powerful.

    Is there anyone else that feels the same way about this build?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yup, I've had alot of fun with this combo.


    In fact, I had one to lvl 50 about 2 years ago on an old account that I've since retired, and loved it then. Thanks to the new dominator changes, I've recently re-rolled him on one of my existing accounts just to have it again lol and I love it just as much! Fun combo, though you do have to be wise with KB when teaming

    [/ QUOTE ]

    When teaming I tend to spam holds, bone smasher, and total focus. If i use my ranged attacks its for the foes that have broke away from the mob. I position my self when attacking them to where when i knock them back it pushes them back into the mob thats held.

    I have no problems with flashfire, once its duration wears off from PB its ready again. It's even faster since my guy is a Perma dom.

    No, it's only you. Come back when you get past level 10.

    lol, a true troll......im lvl 47 btw. I did mention perma domination and fire imps.

  12. I know about the little things u can do like the corner route or using walls and things to stop the scatter, but in an open area its a pain. I dont mind it when im soloing but you know how it is in teams. The problem is it's not a consistant scatter. Some times its minmal and other times its like a bomb went off sending them flying. You know teams really hate scattering mobs and KB. I wont get rid of it because there's nothing else worth taking.

    Seriously though, i need to talk to a dev about that, why the hell does it have KB anyway. They already wonder around due to the stun. TP foe doesnt have kb.
  13. Does the Immob for grav keep foes from being knocked back like a few other sets?
  14. When i first got this power i did like it a little but now i dont like it. I team alot and the 1 thing people hate is when u scatter a mob which wormhole does about 75% of the time for me. I would use it on a mob but instead of moving them to a different area i would just put them in the same spot they were in before hoping that it wouldnt scatter. It seems that it doesnt matter at all where u tp them to they just scatter. Now that i think of it, why the hell does this power have Knockback when its a tp power that disorients the foe?

    Im thinking about respec out of it but not sure since theres very few good powers. Any thoughts. My dom is an Grav/Elec lvl 45.

    DM/WP holy wow

    [ QUOTE ]
    Cruising with my new (lvl 25 now) DM/WP, doing Darla Mavis' arc on invincible, I wasn't paying attention and got into a fight with Aurora Borealis - spawning as an even-level hero.

    I jumped into the fight solo with just whatever insps I had on hand figuring "what the heck" . Five minutes later I BEAT HER.

    No IOs yet, not even all my powers yet, and I'm soloing a Hero with just a handful of tier 1 insps.

    Wow this AT is powerful. Very impressed.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I've been in many AV/Hero fights where it's taken me 30 minutes to put them down but i did it alone and without inspirations. ToF can be you own way to cheat when fighting av's, u can double or tripple stack it and you are pretty much safe. Wait till u get Darkest night....
  16. This guy doesnt have a clue of wtf he is talking about. Im on Freedom server all day and i can tell you the majority dont care what you are.

    Im willing to bet this guy is here just to troll. He realized his first statement was off and instead of just taking the L he comes back with " well they should have left it alone". Just doesnt make sense
  17. Not sure which one to pick here. Also i was wondering if Shields is an end hog.
  18. Thnx all, I decided to go with fire. I really dont want to wait till lvl 38 for PSW plus with the buff coming there's a chance PSW may be changed. Thanks anyway..

    I have a fire/thorn so i dont want to do thorns again, but it is an awesome set. Cant wait till the buff to see it really shine.
  19. Help me out with this one guys, not sure which to choose so ill leave it in the hands of the posters. This is for PvE.
  20. Im going to make a guide on Fire/cold corrupt and was wondering do i post it here or in the corrupt forums? If i post it here will it be pushed over to the corupt guide section automaticly?

    I predicted this

    Alot of wimpy stalkers that rely on staying hidden. Looks like you guys are gonna have to change your hit and run tactics. My stalker is always prepared like a true Dark Ninja, what about yours?
