Strength of Will: Resist Effects
Moderately boosts your resistance to immobilization, sleep, disorient and hold effects for 180 seconds. Must be used before you are slept, held or disoriented, but can be used after being immobilized.

Escape: Resist Effects
Frees you from many sleep, hold, immobilization, disorient, fear, confuse, and knockback effects and boosts your resistance to repel, taunt, and placate effects for 90 seconds. This inspiration can be used even while under such effects.
- 20 Magnitude protection against Hold, Sleep, Stun, Immobilize, Fear, and Confuse; -10 Magnitude protection against Knockback and Knockup; 100% resistance to Repel; 50% resistance to Taunt and Placate

Where do you see the mag on strength of will?

[/ QUOTE ]

Good luck taking her down in 180 seconds

DJ and I (and Spawus with someone else) Have Duo'd the LGTF, that needs 8 people.

Did we use an exploit? Should we use 8 players because it was designed for them? We did it for the challenge. By your logic Snow, because we didn't do it as intended, should we be at the sharp end of the 'you are exploitng the game!' stick?

[ QUOTE ]
Its still a challenge, just for 11 minutes.

6 lucks instead of ambrosia and skipping mobs is hardly an exploit is it?

[/ QUOTE ]

this this this.

Snow, I ask you only to PuG the eden trial, and ask *them* to complete it in 10 mins.

We're not talking some mass exploiting Farmer Corp. we're talking a relatively good group of excellent players, who know what they're doing. As was mentioned earlier, *all* the TFs succumb to this (i've ghosted a manticore in uner 40 minutes)

Times change, sadly. And in that light, yes, I agree with you...the timers are a bit outlandish if it *can* be done in 10 minutes. but it doesn't *HAVE* to be done in 10 mins, and most PuGs *need* that timer

With all due respect, kicking and screaming that the devs should have a look at players doing a trial quicker than you've ever done it, reeks of that green monster.

But if you say so

[ QUOTE ]
A trial that is got a timer of 4hrs or so to complete and folks do the entire thing in 10 mins !!

Must be something a foot.


Either that or IOs and sets have made COX to easy and practally all watered down. I earned the badge good and proper now folks can do it in 10 mins !!

where sense of achievment if folks can do it in 10 mins !!

[/ QUOTE ]

Why should that matter to you? Take pride in how you did it, and let others have their fun. If they enjoy getting a fast time, then let them enjoy it.

CoX is an easy game anyway, IOs and general good players who know the ins and outs of the trial, will result in fast times.

The Issues of farming is totally irrelevant (no purples, and 3/24 (can't remember which timer) hours before they can get their l33t trial recipe, after completion), so I'm not quite sure what you have an issue with.

You earned the badge 'good and proper', so did I. So Do I, infact...normally takes my SG 45mins to an hour, we don't care for rushing it, as it's a nice trial. But don't demand to limit those who enjoy getting a fast time, amongst cries of 'OMG FARMING!' and plain jealousy

I can only forsee an endless sea of clipping issues. And all for one powerset shared (atm) between 2 ATs.

As they are, they have limited clipping issues, and can thus be used with all manner of costume ideas.

From the finger would be fantastically hard to implament (have a good look through the varying hand options)

Edit: PLUS! think of how many of the animations would look totally stupid with the claws originating from the fingers! That would demand an animation rewrite, and thus better off as a new powerset entirely.

Isn't it more like sex?

Just because you can do it in 10 mins doesn't mean you have to

[/ QUOTE ]

hahahahah, this!

Also, I agree with MaX in this instance.

CoV respecs can be done in about 17-20 minutes if you want to. Katie Hannon can be done in 25-30. Eden trial is on the trial timer, so the recipes are on a timer, so 'farming' is not possible, and the mobs are under 50, so no purples

So please snow, elaborate on a) this 'exploit', and b) Why this is a bad thing. Because i'm struggling to find either

Each to his own I guess...

[ QUOTE ]
I also have a quick question, what is this foolproof method for Eden?

I only ask out of professional curiosity as our SG regards the Crystal Titan as an amusing pet and can clear the whole thing, first hunt, Ambro grabbing and pwnage in 20 minutes. With no special powers/outside buffs apart from what we bring to the team.

Though it's been a while since we did it in all honesty.

[/ QUOTE ]

Buy ambrosia beforehand. Ghost to the titan. Break him. Get the hostages out. I'd presume?

I've never been on a super efficient Eden trial, but I imagine cutting out farming the Devoured for Ambrosia is a large component for cutting the time down

[ QUOTE ]
No xemulas i mean the higher tier bf with lasting effects (1 minute for SoW if i remember correctly) they can be pretty pricey, 200k - 500k at the AH. I usually sell mine at 150k-200k after a successful night in sirens.

[/ QUOTE ]

You understand that the top tier of that insp, gives 10 mag protection, so you'd need about 8-9 at a time, to resist her hold? So you can resist two holds before your tray is emptied....plus they're very expensive and hard to come by. Not a viable strategy at all

[ QUOTE ]
Strength of will/iron will?

[/ QUOTE ]
You mean indominable will?

Cynic's point about tanks having higher mez protecting takes that into account. The average mez toggle has 8-10mag of protection...

..her hold is 100 mag. Hence the need for CMs

[ QUOTE ]
Not really looked at the build but a further comment on this disscusion for me would be myself I'm scared of yellow and red numbers in mids cos once you see them any 'true' percentage point is better spent elsewhere cos if you use it on that power it will be reduced.

You've clearly never tried to 'perma' any powers then

Use the search function.

next to 'I can climb walls plz' and 'I can drive a car plz', this is one of the most popular.

Bit more info on the powers, set etc, if you want proper feedback

Aye Cynic, i tend to recommend 10, as the empath may have to shoot off and RA the ranged group, or Heal someone etc, so letting 10 drop to 8 gives enough time to do that, before rushing back to top up

[ QUOTE ]
OK, maybe i´m entering n00b land here, but what about "Break Free" inspirations?

[/ QUOTE ]

After a quick chuckle, i'd like to remind you that you'd need a tray of about 12 of them, to withstand ONE hold. You have to last the entire fight, and other insps are needed. So no

[ QUOTE ]
It might do, but I wouldn't count on it. 7.5%

8 CMs is about what a tank needs, she can hold through 7 on an Inv and Fire anyway

[/ QUOTE ]

Well actually, DJ checked the combat logs on last week's MoSTF run (and note, with my FF/ fender, the whole team is running at the defence soft cap), and GW still had a 10.75% chance to hit (due to the fact that she is a lvl 54 AV)

So one in every 10 Dark Regen/Soul Storm will hit :S...you need 10CMs up all the time to prevent the latter, and nobody except defence based meleers in melee range, everyone else as far away as you can allow. (A troller or two with immob also helps)

Keep mobile, in that fight, don't be afraid to lead her around, as Cynic quite rightly says, taunted from range, she won't use Dark Regen

We did an all scrapper ITF a while ago and it was A LOT of fun, completed it in 1:42. Keeping 8 cysts untouched on second mish and killing all at same time for a massive ambush was hilarious and I think the rep was Invincible (if i recall correctly, could be wrong though).
