    Yes, you can't possibly PvP if you don't have a fire/kin (preferably 2 of them).

    **MAX HP**
    I assume heals are worked out at the % of the casters HP, so in every Res power I add 3 Titanium and 3 of that other IO that gives +hp I should hit 57%Res mod and gain 3% Max Hp per power...Definatley want the Freedom Phalanx Reserve, does anyone know what lvl 50 standard HP is for a troller and what the cap is ?

    The %heal bonus' work of your base HP. Any HP bonus' you might have is for personal survival only.

  5. Are we talking the same character here or different ones? /hide works individually now.
  6. *sigh*

    This has to be the silliest argument I've been in for a good while on these boards.

    The only thing I was talking about, or shall I say, implying was survivability!

    I never said anything about teaming as I never thought it would be necessary to spell it out. Guess my faith in reason has dropped yet another notch on these boards.

    If I accidentally misinterpret a comment thats one thing. To knowingly write things in a way that can be very misleading and not care is another.

    This is spam now. I wash my hands of this.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You are the only one misinterpreting here.The post was clear.He goes afk with an AV on him.He didn't say team or any other words you fantasized.Wash your hands all you want you aint Pilatus nor any kind of judge.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Shannon wasn't misinterpreting. Shannon was worried in-case other people might misinterpret. You've misinterpreted that much so far.

    Also taken this to a full misinterpretation. I would expect Archy's tanker, to not have to obey, the common game mechanics known to most everyone in game.

    Against AVs, he could be standing next to them AFK forever if for example he is a level 50 and the AVs are all level 25. That's a claim any Tanker can make therefore making such a claim would be a m00t point without more clarification.

    Clarification would help to make Archy look like he is either not being over-zealous, bending the truth accidentally, being deliberately deceitful or simply making m00t point to fuel his own ego or possibly something else.

    Shannon's position came across as very much neutral.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    To be honest I'm not sure if you're trying to be funny in this post or if you're actually being serious?

    But if you really want to know the AVs I've tested against have been Mynx, Siege and the Rikti dude which I can't remember the name of. All level 50 or 51.

    This build makes me able to stand toe to toe with AVs and then go afk.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If yours is doing everything that this sentence can imply then I doubt the build has much to do with it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm implying that I can go AFK and still be alive once i get back. What are you implying?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If I was the OP and made this build with the unlimited expectation of being afk in front of "any" AV expecting to be alive and have "any" team alive when I came back and pardon the expression "I might want to hunt you down and from your shoulders remove your head" or atleast demand my money back. Despite it being doubtful that anyone would take a comment seriously as law I still felt some clarity would be nice...just in case someone does have the wrong expectation.

    Also if you can go AFK for a lengthy amount of time in front of an AV as a Willpower tank; whilst the team is fighting them; then most people would conclude the team didn't need a tank for that period of the fight.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Only one that seems to have the wrong impression is you. Where do I say anything about teaming? I simply state that I dont actively have to do anything to stay alive whereas both my invul and ice tanks wouldnt be able to. *sigh*

    Is that it? That's the best you got?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    What's that? You taunting me with RotP?
  11. [ QUOTE ]
    No to slot flash with damage isn't a good idea. Like being afk next to an AV with a WP taunt aura for a team isn't a good idea.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Not entirely sure why you're talking about WP taunt here but hey...most of your posts rarely makes sense.

    [ QUOTE ]
    Why don't you run some numbers.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    See...I don't have to. I know 16 x next to nothing = slightly more than next to nothing.

    Or better still Globey, as I trust he will be better at it.

    Hehe...at least you still make me laugh.

    Given that in this thread I have already said it maybe better to focus on PvE and level first and then go back to PvP. I don't see a problem. If I said carry on with PvP then no that wouldn't be the slotting.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    PvP or PvE...it doesn't matter. There will ALWAYS be a better use of slots than damage in Freezing Rain.

    [ QUOTE ]
    Numbers and more mature posts pls, with constructive criticism not spam.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    See...I consider my deriding of your slotting far more contructive than most of your posts. Advising anyone to slot damage in Freezing Rain is a waste of forumspace. Freezing Rain should ALWAYS be recharges, end reduction, def debuffs in that priority order - and if you feel really silly some range. Never damage.

    My Ill/Storm was not too dissimilar to yours except that rather 3 rechg'd 3 dam SO'd Freezing Rain and the pets.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Wait...what? You have Freezing Rain slotted with damage?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    In 2 secs I can almost cast the equivalent of 16 * the damage of Blind because F.R. can hit 16 and constantly over waves of multiple targets its dps can be worth as much as over 3 * Blind's.

    On the french server I am not normally outside of an 8 man team even at this time which is 4 am.

    So yes I do damage slot it and when it comes to IOs I have 6 slots worth frankensteining.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    This is probably the most hilarious thing I've read since IM said to slot Flash with damage.

  14. Take ID!

    Only thing where Stimulants better than ID is that it offers sleep protection and ID does not but you can sort that with a heal if needed.

    Stimulant recharges 3 times as slow as ID, duration is 25% shorter, uses almost 3 times as much endurance, it's interruptible + ID gives smash/energy resistance.

    Think that about covers it.

    NinjaEdit: Having said that...I wouldnt necessarily take ID. Even if its a good power it's one I only take it if I can fit it in my build. Choice between the two then it would always be ID though.

    I'll be there on the nights I am actually home, might not be that many . Damn social and cultural anthropology courses, I'm going to be so swamped next month

    I heard you're a cultural anthropology study all by yourself

    EDIT: Fixed typo...which Alvan's now quoted!
  16. Think we at level 48 got about 750k from Recluse on DXP.

    Also gotten about a million from the 2 bonus' from a respec during DXP.
  17. I've always thought the sudden loss of your HP was warning enough...

    Is there a way of transferring a the recipe to another character (can you bid on your own auction or something?)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah...you bid on it in the AH. Not exactly expensive. Otherwise you have to get someone to help you transfer it.
  19. Havent heard of any being broken for a good while.
  20. Monsters? are we talking GMs here?

    90% will negate most incoming damage unless we're talking streakbreakers or the common 5% chance to hit. Furthermore theres the whole leveldifference, tohitbuff calculations...
  21. Base Storage sorting:

    Enhancement tables sort after: Level, Type, Name maybe alphabetical.

    Inspiration Collectors sort after: Tier, Type

    Rework the droptables:

    Move some of the more specialized sets such as Snipe, Immobs, Sleeps etc from the "big" TF and Trial tables to be mobdrops maybe?
