Illusion is more ST damage they are the ones that can take out AV and GM solo with the right build, but if you do go with /kinetics I would stay away from Illusion. Nothing bad with the combo but your pets get nothing out of kinetics powers like Fulcrum Shift because Phantasm stays at range and Phantom Army can't be buff.

Welcome to COH!
First thing is there are no fulltime healer in CoH. So if your wife goes with the Brute then a Controller would be just fine, also a Corruptor would be good too and I think might be a little better because of a Corruptor does more damage at the early levels.
Anycombo of the two should make a great team. So I would look at the powers and see what you like.
For a Brute a SS/SD is a good one , the most fun I had playing a Brute, and if you pair it with a Any/Cold Domination Corruptor it will make that Brute much harder to kill and a great team.
There are a lot of good team combos and I sure other people will give thier favorites. -
Plant/Storm can make a lot of chaos.
For Corruptor Energy/Storm. -
Thanks All. Had a blast last night running this with my Widow! The best part was when Impyre said the Widow could go in the front in the vine room but not the Brute

Quote:Let me see what your saying here. LR before GR hit for 700 for the whole radius, but now it only hit 700 at the impact point?Originally Posted by Ehina
Before GR : LR hit for 700, SC hit for 700 on the whole radius
Now : LR hit for 500 (+200 but just on the impact point), SC hit for 350 (+150 just on the impact point)
For me LR damage as always be like that, more damage at the impact point and less damage on the outside of the radius.
There was a fix for LR but it was to correct combat spam, so the damage should be the same. -

Quote:Who said anything about a Healbot? He said he like Empahty because of Fortitude and Adrenalin Boost which are great buffs. Fortitude gives you +defense, +Dam, and +tohit. Adrenalin boost gives you +100% recharge! If I'm playing a Regen I would like a Emp over a FF because of Adrenalin Boost and Fortitude. Fort doesn't give as much +defense as FF but I would like the +recharge and the +Recovery more for my Regen.Originally Posted by Captain_Freak
If your friend is a regen scrapper or Granite tank, being a healbot isnt gonna help them much.

Well For Heroes you have Task Force, it is a group of team doing missions and they can have some challenges in them list here. Some of the goods ones are Statesman's Task Force,The Lady Grey Task Force, Imperious Task Force. Villians have Strike Force, list here and I like them all.

Quote:Same here I always get a new tip when I'm done with a Tip mission, and most of the time I have more than one at the end of a Tip mission.Originally Posted by MTS
I'll say this, the drop rate on tips seems to be fairly high. Doing tip missions, if I fight my way through (i.e. don't stealth it), I've yet to complete the mission without getting at least 1 more tip. You can have up to 3 at a time, so chances are you won't have a shortage of tips.

But I wanted you to know first and foremost that it is not in any way necessary - it's a way to pursue outlier performance.
I have a lot of Scrappers at the Soft cap, but I want to push my build and see what I can do like solo AVs and solo at +4/8. It is not need because a good Tank or even good Buff will keep you alive easily. It is something we do for Fun

Yes you can make a Bind or A marco for this.
This would be a Marco
/Marco Oni "targetcustomnext Oni"
Now I don't know if it can cast Smoke flash but it would be something like this
/Marco Oni "targetcustomnext Oni$$powexecname Smoke Flash" -
Quote:With 0 defense an even level minion will have only a 50% chance to hit. With each precent of defense you add it will lower the tohit. So if you have 30% defense then the critter will have a 20% chance to hit you. If you have 40% defense then they have a 10% chance to hit you. The soft cap is 45% defense because that will lower their to hit to 5% which it can't go lower then.Originally Posted by SPiNE
I was just looking at it as a flat percentage, I'm assuming that the critter has a 100% chance to hit. Which is why out of 10 hits, 5 will land on a toon with 50% defense.

Quote:That is way wrong, you didn't bump defense up you lower it to 0%. With no defense an even minion as only a 50% chance to hit. With 45% they only have 5% chance to hit.Originally Posted by SPiNE
A critter throws 10 attacks at the second guy, every single one of its attack also does 100 points of damage. The second guy will take 5 out of those 10 attacks at 100% of its strength (yes, I'm going to bump defense up to 50% here instead of 45%, giving the soft-cap +5% defense so it's easier to calculate): 5*100*1 = 500 damage.

I would say the next step is Incinerate/GFS/Cremate/Fire Sword.
If you still only want three attacks then Incinerate/Cremate/Fire Sword would be next, I think. It will take more recharge then the above but it only as three attacks.
the Top attack chain is Incinerate/GFS/Cremate. -
Well most quests or missions are on a Instanced Map so you can only do one at a time, but you can have up to 7, I think.

Quote:I have yet to see a Soft capped blaster to all 3(Melee, Range, AoE) and still put out over 200DPS.Originally Posted by SPiNE
I'm sure when the Devs created Blasters, they did not meant for it to have as much defense as a defense-based Tank...and yes, many Blasters do build for defense soft-cap now.

Quote:You don't need them all just 8, but to me that is a good thing saying that the Set is good having only one power that sucks.Originally Posted by SPiNE
However, how is SR any good? It requires you to take pretty much all 9 powers, it has no self heal, no +regen, no utility powers, just a +20% recharge power. It's pretty much just soft-cap defense...that pretty much anyone can reach with IO's.
It gives you Soft capped defense for little with IO. As Silverado said you need to go out of your way to get just one defense up on other sets.
Also cascade defense failure sucks for all the other too. SR as 95% DDR with just SO.
If you still think SR sucks ask the Scrapper forums which would be the best for solo AV. They will say Shields if you have the inf and then SR. Because it is really easy to get soft capped defense and then a good attack chain. -
Shields and SR are still two of the best secondary in the game for Scrappers. Yes other can build good +def but I don't think they can soft capped all 3 defense like Shields and SR can and still have room to put lots of Recharge and +regen in your build.

Quote:Ohh I though it was your post count that made your opinions not matter, silly meOriginally Posted by Bill Z Bubba
On the flipside, I'm often told that my opinions don't matter because I'm supposed to be some highly skilled player running around on the fringes of performance and thus have no understanding of how "normal" players play the game.
Yea, I find that to be total BS as well.
