The Player Event Resource Committee would like to thank all of the base builders who entered and completed the Design Challenge - Disaster Base! Each and every one of you surprised and amazed us with your skills, creativity, and commitment to your design. This was certainly not an easy contest and it was a true pleasure to see all of the bases come to life!
Just as a reminder, the base builders were given a base with an entryway and one 3 by 3 room. They had 200 random items of "wreckage" that had to be used to complete the base and 50k in prestige as "disaster relief funds." Bases were judged based on creativity, use of the "wreckage," cohesion/theme, difficulty, and overall aesthetics.

Also what are your thoughts on combustion -- I personally hate the power and it was a total let down for me haha.
Have you tinkered around with any other possible epics, though I dunno about giving up those 2 you have. Just tinkering around with it abit. -
Yep the Membranes do not buff the DDR anymore
You also have no travel power. Guess that's a personal thing. -
The set looks great thus far! I personally would like clean versions for a few things as well, but it is what it is.
Quote:More weapons please? There is a lot you could do with this set's theme.Titan Weapon (Longblade Chainsaw, like a logging chainsaw)
Stop sign shield (2 options, emblem or nails) -
I've never encountered gameplay that I just a total show stopper -- I tend to eliminate it by compensating my approach whatever way it may be.
The wall for me however is when a character just doesn't 'feel' like it's up to snuff and I've already made some adjustments with sub-par results. The fun factor goes down for me, so I'll shelve the concept and just come back to it later if ever. Sometimes that period can be a few months or even years. This is of course after I've played it a while and not an immediate response.
Content wise - I'll just avoid what annoys me heh -
What is with the haters?! Great work! Thanks for the app.

I haven't played or messed with this character since a little before issue 16 and I'm not too terribly fond of melee, in fact this will be the first shield character I've come back to since then, so this has been/will be quite the venture.
Needless to say I'm wanting to play it...
The objective of the character is 1) have a nice SD character 2) pack a punch in both AoE and ST -- which should be the standard want for general PvE, at least I would think so. Just looking to mow stuff down and actually feel like I'm contributing to the AV fight...and not die
This is me toying with the old build (had fitness pool) and some other things that seemed pretty dated:
Code:It has a blank power slot as well -- I have no idea what direction to go. So I'm obviously looking for ways to get more defense without losing too much recharge and not becoming even more of an end ***** -- Really looking for help in this department.| Copy & Paste this data into Mids' Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1510;698;1396;HEX;| |78DA6594496F525114C7EFE33D4A4B193BD1193A42415E8B6D35D6296AADA929494| |DA30BB512A4B7F09450025DA83B133551776EDCAB75D8F8459C560E51BF82C35E2B| |1EEEFF4049B809F99D7BEE19FE7778246F2CBA5E9FB97D5C689E53F974B99C5ACB9| |4D2C5A22CD993E9AC9511345A4FD0C2F65629E4A0497F6D3D95947929CD254B966E| |C20ED69716E5A62C94A5B996B3647EA336F52F1772B2240BDB66CD70AD6E6DE5CD1| |5992E5A85AC5B4D96AC6C6E9B664E355B2B4AB9E1AD456DC8523967153B4E17AD8C| |79329FBE2553495246027A4959947E77AA12D5A8D8458A103644C73AD8759979091| |CBEC8BC023ADD444DE51AA29B8C84216C5D4C1FE80A10870CE1DBAFAB793BE568C8| |D135CE69E19C16CE09CDD3B2A10B17C5EA1CAB9FC79A718E7981EB1F43FDBBB40F3| |BEFC3BE29D45A6B9699039D16F33AD8710DBC47B90ECE753CB3295FEF0EF339187A| |018EBC62BE04DDA4B10D1AB5B605E88E337BA8683BD66CEDBC570FEFD5B32B94EE0| |0C5B8D1DBE6FE8A9AD16F60FC3BE8A100AF3AB48AF08E40F37DCAF323CFF01F455C| |FF21D6B6008E1D06C78F805EAAD3093DA293F56854A71B754477858618254F80550| |762E8166286990F28A68FBBF785B97B041C9C6246C1E118E8A3EE03DC69806F58A7| |3A43DC6B68068AA2736062966F9A62821C1364D5E3FC52A27C9A7EAA3DCA37382AF| |0D2C62A7C0AFFF81476C1C9BF60E20FF890EA4FF05E263E2077F20DF32D187EC77C| |0F3EA17E11E4E8912F367593539F991F999FC0A7141BE3FAB1047AEE9B614E334DB| |EF138B8433926E79807E19B9E67CE3167791F07C0EAE555068DFAE72C9447AC347A| |7484AE1AFCDD924FE32B0D1AF58FB9D2E613D54354F6AAB3FAB461AF37D8E906FB6| |A83AD46B449C64C9327D1E4996DF2CC35797E38EBFF1F428B43FAAF3D9FA62D6BEA| |BFA9E72CF8B3313E82F8DF7B3E9BF6985FE723B0278498FF5B87ECDF| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
In relation to defense -- icap for SD (or just close to)? It doesn't seem feasible while maintaining other general purpose attributes?
Alphas Slot! Suggestions? I was thinking cardiac or agility maybe what is in these days?
For the rest of incarnates I was thinking Pyro/Ion, Reactive, Rebirth, and Assault Radial/Support.
The ST of choice seems to be Cremate > Incinerate > GFS -- which seems fine. Is the Scorch/Fire Sword just a personal preference then? Or would Scorch just be better? I have no preference of non sword powers vs sword powers.
---
After all that if you have suggestions for other combinations with SD that'd be fine as well, long as it isn't : WM, DM, Elec, or KM // I was actually thinking StJ might be interesting, but wanted to play with fire first

Correct. It's a PITA and I've been told it's not WAI >_> So we shall see... -
I think the changes -sound- great and that it's about time...
The only thing I don't like is that I'm having to figure out how to best alter my 15-20 some odd ranged incarnates that can take advantage of this hehe -
mmm dead people on base raids...

How about 17% tohit? For a Blaster that's 3 SOs in Tactics + a Kismet IO with .08% left over that you need to make up by either over slotting Tactics or getting it from somewhere else. That way every set with a snipe can have insta-snipe, but it requires an investment of slots and a particular IO in order to achieve.
That way it's not "free" for Blasters and the price Defenders and Corrs pay is having to use a power pick and several slots to take advantage of it. They typically have tighter builds as they possess powersets that already usually require them to take a slot of lot of their powers, where as Blasters should be taking as much damage as they can get their hands on since that's essentially their only function.
Why do you have to have it insta all the time? -
I do know the lockdown proc works great in both powers. Post i24 - dunno.
-
I believe that is one of Antimatter's powers from the Keyes trial.
There is Disintegration and 2 Entanglement power icons that look very similar to player incarnate power icons.
If the slot is indeed that -- It would be rather ... interesting. The list of various options available is rather long. -
Quote:You mean -def?Originally Posted by Bonnes
I suggest /Dark. It doesn't have much Defense, but it has a boat-load of -ToHit. And all those other things.
As dark is on of the sets with built in +def +res ... -

Ended up deciding to go with a Water/Kin - Splash Damage - and a Water/Time named Time Stream (seriously, how was that still available this long after Time came out?!).
haha nice names...
I level shifted my water/kin yesterday afternoon, and he really has been a ton of fun. I'm liking the cone more than I thought I would.
I'm still up in the air about what I want to pair with it. I've decided not to do time, and hold off on repeating that set. Dark and Cold however are not completely off the table now. Kins just spoil and confuse me for when I want to use a set again

Water/Kin for sure, others still up in the air. -
Quote:Pets already out or summoned during.Originally Posted by atomicdeath
Update:
For those that dont know, seems hybrid assault radial is working for pets now, (only one i cared about). I was seeing double hit in the combat log, but the numbers dont make any sense.
My battle drone was doing 40 damage with one of its laser shots. But double hit was hitting for 200-300? How is that double, IDK. But its working atleast, I'm content for now. -

I was thinking Water/Dark Corruptor to replace my Ice/Dark, but it worries me that no one else is going that route. Is there no synergy or something?
Water/Dark would definitely work. I would have listed it if I didn't already have several /Dark across the accounts.
1 more day! -
I like WM, but I don't have one because I already have numerous of the armor types I'd use it with. However, a main factor is my Bane

Quote:Assault being like Dom secondary or more towards Blaster manipulation?Originally Posted by DMystic
Personally I've always wanted to see a Support/Assault or Assault/Support AT.
Cause that sounds really close to Defender And Corr, as the assault sets have lots of ranged (set depending). Or are you looking for like more melee oriented (manipulationish)
I would expect another AT within the next year? Powers are one of their best selling items. A new AT could have 2+ new powersets. I also wouldn't be surprised if it was a hybrid of sorts, capable filling some of those rolls listed in previous posts. -
I've thought about making a water/kin, water/time, water/poison corrs...
I'll make the kin for sure, but still thinking about the others. -
Why not just send a PM?

I'm still waiting on a purchaseable account-wide Midnighter Badge.
I'm serious. I bet a few Paragon Studios players would love that too.
ALWAYS good to see power sets on sale though.
Yay for sales!!! Although powersets are said to be 75% but then labeled 50% off then properly marked for 75% off. -
Dimension Shift recently got changed. I for one like it a lot more than the previous version. Blackhole on the other hand ... needs to go.
