    Assuming you use phase to try and finish off other phased players, which in a zone or team arena situation is a really stupid thing to do 99% of the time. When someone burns phase to try and kill a phased player (generally doesn't happen because the phased person is usually well away anyways) they become a big target. I'm aware that playing a regin in zones clouds your judgment and hampers critical thinking skills, but now you're just being silly.
    yeah ive been on my regen lately in RV but if you were truly a member of my fan club ud know ive been playing a fender and blaster for a few months straight now.

    point is, no use crying over spilled milk. Not gonna make any huge difference to pvp. This isn't the second coming of i13

    This.

    you'll see a lot more phase shift, and that will be the most noticeable thing. Other than that, not a big deal. Besides if everyone has phase it kinda cancels out the point of phase.

    Also could someone tell me why xanatos is in this http://www.cityofheroes.com/global/u...bk_issue12.jpg
  3. You can make a mean blaster killer. Just spec for hp primarily, then recharge. Take blaze mastery and you only need impale and barb swipe. Always good to have taunt, so take it. Skip resilience and revive. Get touch or phase, i like tough better because regen has no resistance and will fall easily. If you go redside u wont need phase cause ull have hiber.

    If you want to go melee, spines isnt great, but it works, just make sure u spam the hell out of barbswipe. once upon a time i paired that with flurry, but u may be better off pairing with lunge for quicker attacks. Take weapon mastery or body. Get nades and taunt.

    Also fit leadership in there. I find that regen scrappers don't need fitness, so once slotted u will be fine without it.


    Overall it really depends on ur playstyle, arena, zone, fiteklub?

    KM and Pvp

    it's just melee after all and the set doesn't have a BU. Takes hits to beef up the dmg. a mediocre strategy should easily trump a mediocre Km scrap
  5. I can see how a tank with both fiery embrace and fossilize could be deadly but in general tanks aren't so scary. There are far worse things.

    Yeah...but in actual practice fossilize isn't that impressive and tanks can't really kill anything.
  7. Is this power supposed to crit? It doesn't. The description is still for stalkers says it has a 20% chance to hit sleeping or held targets when not in hide. Is that working as intended?
  8. I have yet to run into a kill all since GR! The new missions are awesome! I just met myself from the future and it was awesome. Overall the missions have been really cool! Mind you i'm a farmer and usually don't do anything but Tfs and Farm in pve, but this is much much better!
  9. Don't know why this thread got trolled so bad. Within the first 2-3 posts it was confirmed that I was given false information. Done.
  10. meh, i see ur point but as a pvper travel powers are still very necessary.

    Also on TFs where u need to be more versatile namely KHTF, and STF and many more.
  11. I'd personally love to do a dominator fender combo! love the doms control/damage along with the a fender that buffs/heals would be awesome
  12. Main thing I wanted to know was can my "shades of grey" heroes access both blue and redside and the answer is YES, rogues, and vigis can. Thanks guys

    sweet, thanks for the link
  14. What's the difference 0.o. I GET the difference from a RP perspective but from a technical perspective, what can i do/not do.

    phew! thanks for that, one of my global friends messaged me saying something about 90 missions 40 days or something for a purp...i dont know which is why i brought it up here
  16. There has been a dramatic purple drop rate decrease of some sort?
  17. i havent even begun to play with mine yet, jsut checking out the old zones with new content first
  18. I got this "unavailable slot" bug a week or so ago too...any work arounds?

    But yeah! Great Launch! GO COH WOOOO!!!
  19. LOL, so who else waited 'til the last minute to buy it hahaha. I decided i'd buy it right now after it launched and i felt left out.

    Get Taunt?

    I find that taunt is super effective at damage mitigation and annoyance LOL. I tend to get the "OMG WHY DO YOU KEEP TAUNTING ME" well...a ton -range is why. Combo works great with webnades. So yeah, taunt is critical to most melee arena builds.
  21. For fiteklub? for arena? for zone?
  22. Most people seem to agree that I should "wait for GR" which is probably best. So I decided just to roll both XD
  23. I'm seriously thinking about making either a rad/dark fender or a dark/rad corr for 1 v 1 arena and some zonage. Few things i considered.

    Corrs have soul storm, 120 sec base powerboost opposed to defenders 240 powerBU, corrs have soul storm. corrs have higher base hp.

    Defenders have significantly better debuffs. PB has +tohit and +dmg. Also +30% dmg.


    I figure corrs could do really well dmg wise, however i see fenders debuffing the hell out of pretty much anything....


    Anyone have experiences relative to the subject?
