    Best guess would be because it uses a different model.

    I think a weather system would be neat--though in no way should it be a priority over anything currently in the works.

    Yeah, there's a way around that, but it costs about 2 bil. The TP Resist/+3% Def Gladiator Armor enhancement.

    So I'll probably go with the earlier one I had.

    A Crab Build

    POST-ACTION

    Okay, from continual work on the build, I've almost got both Perma Pets and soft-capped positional defenses, I'm about half a second away from Perma, though. Hm.

    Edit: Ah, I worked on it a little more and here we go. Capped positional defense, Perma pets, and, to top it all off, no purples whatsoever. Though it's got some drawbacks, too...

    A Crab Build

    POST-ACTION

    Well, like I said earlier, once I replace fitness with fighting, I'll have Ranged softcapped.

    I don't really know how I can get the other positional defenses softcapped, though, which is really annoying.

    Anyway, the Call to Arms/Expediant Reinforment procs are already in the Summon Spiderlings power, since it didn't need an extra recharge IO.

    When you can have an Arachnos Soldier with a Crab Spider Backpack or a Bane Spider Mace and 2 to 5 robotic spiders following you around and still be Natural... I don't think that's the case.

    Is it fast enough to make a chain? (That is, do you have to wait for anything to recharge)

    Since Poison Ray has a much higher recharge than the other ST blasts in the APPs

    Edit: Also, with the recharge for Perma PA, you should have no problem at all making the PPP pet perma.

    Think of it this way, the well is an amplifier, and your origin is the source.

    Sure, it amplifies your innate abilities, but without those innate abilities, it would have nothing to amplify. It even works that way in the Alpha Slot gameplay, the powers enhance the abilities you have, but not you yourself.

    That's why it doesn't change your origin.

    A Crab Build

    POST-ACTION

    Actually, when i19 comes out I'll need to pull a couple of slots out of Disruptor Blast to 6-slot weave and keep Stamina 3-slotted, so I didn't put any expensive sets in there (ranged def will be capped at exactly 45%, too, after I get fighting in there)

    A Crab Build

    POST-ACTION

    Unfortunately, I've been sidelined with a nasty cold these past few days, but, I was able to come up with a new build.

    Since they pushed i19 back, I re-introduced fitness into the build, when it comes out I'll replace it with Fighting.

    Regardless, even with Fighting defenses aren't quite as high as Wiccania's build, but I found Aim (with it's +50% Damage Boost) pretty good, and I didn't want to pass it up.

    Er, you do know this build is a plan for after i19 goes live, and Stamina is inherent (I even saved a couple of slots to put in Stamina), right?
  16. BenRGamer
    If I recall correctly, that was actually the original intent of the power.

    Rumor has it, though, that even though doppleganger tech is around, it's more trouble than it's worth to do.

    Same for NPC caltrops, earthquakes, and so on.
    Actually, for the player, while the Phantasm disappears, the Decoy Phantasm sticks around.

    I think the Epic Storyline on VEATs matches Rogue the best.

    We can't organize our character lists, you know, by most recently played, or level, etc.

    Take a look at it this way, Ironik, your character is Natural, that means they're just that good, Well of the Furies or not.

    While the Well of the Furies may make them better, they'd still be super without it, and that's why their origin doesn't change.

    That's the equivalent of calling every character that went through Dean McArthur's arc with the Ajax fight (where you had to use technology to weaken him enough to defeat him) Science or Technology just because they went through that arc.

    Thanks for the help, but, taking a look at that build, a couple of problems...

    I meant it when I said that money was no object--but Ragnarok/Apocalypse are 3 to 4 times as expensive as the Absolute Amazement set, as well as the Immobilization purple set.

    You also seem to drop some of the crab's AoE attacks, why?

    That said, looking over some things I am being pretty wasteful in the build. I'll make a cleaned up version in the morning.

    POST-ACTION

    Okay, I decided to make up a Recharge-Intensive Crab build--money is no object, but I was able to get up to 183% global recharge while only using one purple set.

    Anyway, leave comments, critiques, or suggestions please.

    The build has i19 in mind and thus I didn't take fitness--and saved 2 slots to represent 3-slotting stamina with EndMod IOs, and that's all.
