So? It seems you've got the (not needed) GM team in place....so whos actually raiding Hami then?

[ QUOTE ]
uhm... someone in this topic said SI grant 6,25% of defence (from hero builder) but i dont know if that means slotted/unslotted.

[/ QUOTE ]

About 6-7% fully slotted.

[ QUOTE ]
doesnt dispersion bubble give 33% of defence, unslotted? if im not wrong, sonic dispersion gives +33% of resistance against all but psionic, and SD is the sonic version of DB.. so i supposed the % was the same :P

[/ QUOTE ]

No. Dispersion bubble gives about 11-12% defense and Sonic Dispersion gives about 18-19% resistance fully slotted.

Think Force Field would be a lot more interesting to many people if your numbers where true

[ QUOTE ]
Junst wondering...
is the 6,25% of defense given by SI supposed to be unslotted?
Because if it is, im really thinking to get SI, full slot it (3 end redux, 3 def buff) and use it with Dispersion bubble... that should grant something like +50% of defense agaisnt all O_o
What do you think about that? it should be a good combination in pvp

[/ QUOTE ]

No idea where youre getting those numbers? Fully slotted SI and Dispersion Bubble will "only" yield about 18-19% defense.

pffft....lightweight

Good power...usually better powers to take so no room for it.

There's really no need for a GM team though....

[/ QUOTE ]

Want to tell that to the 5 or so GMs we pulled away from the ongoing fight in the Hamidon last raid?

[/ QUOTE ]

Wouldnt happen if people would just read the guide and do what the raidleader tells them to do or if you have people specifically out to grief the raid. Theres just 2 on Defiant that would do this...and I would be happy to PM the names of these 2 to a possible leader.

oh pls shut up Tylmantia....actually thought we had gotten rid of that stupid drivel this time...unfortunately not.

There's really no need for a GM team though....

Havent posted here in a while so here goes:

Mind updating:

Arch Nemesis - illusion / radiation emission / primal controller
Arch Chavriel - earth / kinetics / ice controller
Arch Sector - ice / storm / ice controller

And add:

Arch Jackson - fire / kinetics / fire controller
Arch XP - fire / kinetics / fire controller
Arch Ned - gravity / empathy / primal controller
Bad Sector - kinetics / dark blast / psi defender
Chav - invulnerability / super strength / energy tanker

Xanthus, myself and the rest of the crew won't be leading any raids in the near future I'm afraid.

We will probably be up for some more Hami action in the future but not for the time being.

We will always be willing to help with any questions people would have though.

As for the leaders being on teamspeak I can highly recommend it...makes everything much much easier to coordinate.

Tyl go back to WoW forever!!

Im never clear about how KB...

Earthquake is knockdown and so is Liquify - if Earthquake isn't, I've certainly never noticed.


[/ QUOTE ]

Powers like earthquake, ice slick etc will do knockback to certain mobs with lowmag knockback resistance such as clockwork.

seeing you get 3 slots at 34 I'm guessing you mean at lvl 35 right?

Shows us your planned build then we'll be able to tell you more.

Swift and Power Slide as only travel powers??? I would go for CJ/SJ/Acro, or Hasten/SS.

[/ QUOTE ]

...or both

[/ QUOTE ]
On a sonic? Probably. It's not like your build will be tight or anything

[/ QUOTE ]

tadaaaa!! (don't mind the lvls )

Earth is the best control set imo...but you basically wont be able to do any form of damage in your entire career.

Poo man has fairly good melee damage but he's pretty reluctant to go into melee and he's slow....as in very slow!

You will have plenty to do with stalagmites + stone cages, earthquake + quicksand, volcanic gasses + quicksand, stalagmites + stone cages + volcanic gasses + quicksand combos all while you buff your teammates every 4 minutes so you will have plenty to do.

Get a travelpower.

Don't slot powerslide/sprint....and lose salt crystals

Sorry. Would have been there but my stomach decided to mess me about. I did log in, but I was either early or late since I was the only person in RV on Test. So, I gave up and went back to feeling lousy infront of the TV.

[/ QUOTE ]

Should probably have checked in Pocket D as PvP of this kind usually takes place in the arena.

Nice one....great feeling to get that first one.

[ QUOTE ]
Actually the most damaging Epic attack now is probably Ice Storm.

[/ QUOTE ]

No it's not. Fire is still much much better. Yes one Ice Storm does more damage than one Fire Ball but considering you can use Fire Ball 3 or 4 times in the time Ice Storm takes to recharge then makes Fire a lot better for damage.

The last nerf made most troller blasts more or less useless unless you're /kin or /rad.

As Okton said you can more or less get the same damage from your single target immob that with your "epic" blast + it recharges faster and costs less end.

Not sure I'll be able to make it tonight. RL stuff needs some attention after a busy weekend

Deals same damage....what did you expect?

Er, NoFuture says that it is autohit for foes.

7.65 Fire Damage if (Attack does not miss [Autohit overridden])

Since theres been no official notes about this I would suspect this only applies to PvP. Autohit in PvE, needs a tohitcheck in PvP?

[ QUOTE ]
... say does Fallout work with pets? ^^ or is it player only =/

[/ QUOTE ]

Tbh I haven't tried it...but afaik it doesn't....would be surprised if it did.

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
[Hot Feet is a fantastic power but don't get it unless you got a friendly kin around...very hard to sustain because of the massive enduse...especially coupled with /storm so I wouldnt recommend it.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't have any problems with it slotted 3xEndRed, but then I don't have Hurricane.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
3 End Reds and its a breeze

[/ QUOTE ]

Guess you dont use your other powers much...or at least don't play as fastpaced as I do.

I'm using transference quite often to sustain it on my fire/kins which have optimized HO builds.

I had too much downtime cos of it on my fire/rad even with AM running so I eventually respec'd it out.

2 of my fire/storm friends runs out of end faster than most blasters when using it...but then again...we play fast.

I still say it's a great power....but it comes with a big prize.

Not an easy question as they're both great.

Both has it's advantages and it's very much up to playstyle.

Try it out on test before respec'ing on live anyway.
