    I suppose it's not 'necessary' for me to have slots open on the market for my more valuable items to sell and to bid on the items I would rather have. But having the slots open is sure something that I desire and find value in. Perhaps some people have no better use for their slots than to have salvage sitting in them. I strongly suspect that many people can come up with a better use of their slots than to hold a piece of salvage for sale.

    SS on a Brute

    I have seen SS do some really powerful things. A lot of people really enjoy it. I think it's a great set.
    But I don't like it.
  4. And if you cant get more than what the vendor gives, then the items disappear forever when they are vendored.

    Does 7-11 provide any value to it's customers?

    They do to me as a customer. They're there with what I want when I want it. Convenience is the value I get in exchange for paying 7-11 prices.

    As a consumer I feel compensated. If you don't think I am compensated that's your business-- but not fact.

    For the record, I have been paid for builds. Some people are that lazy.
    Would you please look at my build?
    There're a number of areas where I think I may need help.

    I go into more detail in the OP of that thread and in subsequent posts.

    Boxing vs Kick

    There're a few instances where it makes sense to have one or the other, but most likely, your build won't benefit more from one than the other.

    I think you may be able to use something else thats shorter than my prefix, but I forget what it is.

    Thanks for reposting the reminder.

    Once upon a time some patch broked it. I am glad it is fixt again.

    I use a variation to turn on all my toggles

    Some patch broke the shorter version and UI havent checked to see if it's been fixed

    Add a +down$$-down$$ in front and the respite will execute when you depress and the hibernate when you release

    It's a proc120, so the lvl only matters as to when you can slot it.

    However, the upside of Procs is that they continue to work even if you exemplar way below their level. E.g., a level 50 Stealth in Sprint will work even if exemplared to level 10.

    Why?
    Unlike set bonuses, those enhancements get reduced when a 50 exemplars down since they are greater than 20%
    http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Exempl...n_Enhancements
    The math works out better for starting with the 42% and having it adjusted down than with starting with 25% an adjusting it by the same percentage. It also works better than starting with lvl 15 IOs @ 19%

    The +7.5% rechg bonus is a global that works like a set bonus. So having a lvl 25 enhancement in there gives it's +recharge down to lvl 22
    http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Table_of_Special_IOs
    Globals are Special IOs that act like Set Bonuses in that they are always on even if the power isn't activated and even if the power is greyed out because of exemplaring! However, the one thing that will shut off a Global IO is exemplaring more than three levels under the level of that Global IO.

    This is a good point. If I make another one I will prob'ly use claws. But I have this toon already. I will prob'ly work on a corr after this instead of another brute.

(Okay, exaggerating, but way early) You get a solid attack chain with SS way early, and the Rage thing just kicks it into a new world.

    I know Energy Melee does great ST damage, but it really is burst, and the attacks come in much later, right?
    You may be right, but this is the toon I have to work with.

    I don't think I would enjoy the mechanics of rage. Just doesn't seem like it would be that fun to me. I may be wrong though. I haven't played one past lvl 10 or so.
    I have seen some SS toons do some amazing things and I think it's a great set and all. But, I also won't play stone armor for personal enjoyment reasons.

    This behavior occurs because your computer processor detected and reported an unrecoverable hardware error to Windows XP. To do this, the processor used the Machine Check Exception (MCE) feature of Pentium processors or the Machine Check Architecture (MCA) feature of some Pentium Pro processors. The following factors may cause this error message:
    System bus errors
    Memory errors that may include parity or Error Correction Code (ECC) problems
    Cache errors in the processor or hardware
    Translation Lookaside Buffers (TLB) errors in the processor
    Other CPU-vendor specific detected hardware problems
    Vendor-specific detected hardware problems

    Use the Windows Error Reporting tool
    When this error occurs, use the Windows Error Reporting tool. With this tool, you can send the error report directly to Microsoft, and then the tool will report back if a fix or a workaround is available. To use this tool, follow these steps:
    Click Send Error Report when you are prompted to send the error report to Microsoft.

  19. Whats if I reposted it withe the title "The most penultimate brute which exceeds perfection"?
    Would that get anyone interested by getting them riled up?
  20. I really can't imagine playing w/o Mids'.

    Having the numbers to look at made all the difference for me in my builds.
