If you convert a +1 IO do you keep the + on the new enhancement?

Quote:I'm pretty sure that when I last checked Storm kick only provided def to all positions of course I could be wrongOriginally Posted by GravityBlaze
I would NOT look at getting 32.5% positional defense. While it is possible, it is much easier to shoot for 35% s/l/e/n and have storm kick fill in the missing 10%. Remember that Storm Kick gives defense to all damage types and all positions, not just positional defense. Going for set bonuses that give positional defense is possible, but usually ends up gimping the build a bit from my experience. -
Quote:Awesome, now I'm to blame/untrustworthy right...Originally Posted by Ironblade
I'm not making excuses. I'm just saying something when I see BS posted.
You posted this:
That's BS. You don't know WHY they are doing something. You are either assuming, lying or delusional.
I DO know why the GMs refused they said as much when I spoke to them and at no point did they say their software wasn't up to task. If I told you what they said a Mod may redact my post again and give me a second warning for posting what GMs have told me which is apparentally against the rules.
Not that this will help me in your eyes, but I would gladly email you the entire string of contact between me and them on my petition so pls pm me an email address you don't care about anymore but can still access -

How does a PPM work in a damage aura then?
IE I have a power with Recharge modification is at 9 second recharge versus a damage aura. -
Quote:Automated? I petitioned for a refund making this a rather manual process and was refused one by each gm in succession, the last one being pretty smarmy on top of that.Originally Posted by Ironblade
Oh, and you KNOW how the software works? No, you don't. But my point is that this might not be automated - not that it isn't possible under any circumstances.
Not once did a gm suggest the software couldn't do it due to a software limitation and since I know of a user who accidentally doubled up on a costume pack, petioned for a refund and got one I know for a fact they can be done. Please stop making excuses for these people -
Quote:I hate teaming with people that do significant amounts of knockback I never get on their case about it unless their timing causes me to waste a build up because they scattered everything to the 4 winds before I could use my AOE chain. My point is people not saying anything isn't the same thing as them being happy with how you play, most people won't rock the boat.Originally Posted by DrGemini
You can laugh and call me stupid for putting TS on my pets rather than people. But, I do believe the results of my choice pay off very well.
Others obviously do differently than I do. That's fine. You play your way and I'll play mine. No one I've ever teamed with (planned or PUG) has had any problems with it, mostly because all of my characters are well-built and function well.
In my experience and opinion, Temporal Selection works well the way I use it. Enough said.
your only finding yourself at odds hear because you challenged sound advice given to someone looking for advice.
150% regen to an entity with some of the lowest hp on the team is a waste. The more hp you have the more you get out of +regen
18% dmg boost to an entity with some of the lowest dmg mods on your team is a waste, in this case it's only about 9% boost to total damage after enhancements and that boost only goes to 1/3 of your total damage
Don't forget the 30% recharge enhancement is entirely wasted and that is the best part of the MM version of the power
TLDR: Unless the pet in question is an EB, A victoria, or a cim boss temporal selection is always better on a teammate -
Quote:keep in mind the t1s have a lower modifer and they are limited by being -2 to you so in most cases I'd say the t3 is your best betOriginally Posted by JayboH
See again, this makes me think that with thugs the Thugs should get it over the Bruiser - they can stand there and shoot regularly whereas the bruiser has to run around a lot and use slower super strength animations...
or am I wrong? -
the panace proc is weaker than the other 2 in terms of end the only place it's really recommended is in aoe powers like temporal mending, tree of life and healing beacon(that's bEacon not bacon)

Quote:I want them more for thematic purposes but that's for a far future brute and only if ma is ported to brutes with storm kicks + positional defOriginally Posted by NecroOmNomNomicon
Y'know if Cloak of Fear and Oppressive Gloom don't seem to help the way you want, you DON'T need them. With just the 3 shields, cloak, the heal, and a damage aura, Dark Armor has favorable stats already. A resist set with the best composite resists in the game outside of Granite, and the best self heal in the game, that also gives the user some defense and perception.

Quote:How long does power boost take to recharge?Originally Posted by Thoran_EU
How about demons/time? You will lose a bit of -regen, but it's easy to softcap yourself with powerboosted farsight. And you might be able to make up for that -regen with for instance a degenerative interface.

Quote:THIS, pretty much makes all opinions to the contrary mootOriginally Posted by Mid_Boss
You provide the team more damage with a single cast of TS on the blaster than you could if you had TS perma on ALL your pets.this as wellQuote:
Assault Bot's beam cannon does 60 damage unenhanced. A Blaster's Blaze does 193 damage unenhanced. That's 3 times the damage of Assault Bot's beam. TSing the assault bot would give a damage boost to his attack of 11.25 points. It increases the blaster's Blaze by 34. Then there's the difference in cast times since a fire blaster can launch 3 attacks in the time that it takes for Assault Bot to go through the 4 second animation to launch his cannon. In a fire blaster's attack cycle of Flare, Fire Blast, Blaze he would do 61 more points of damage because of your TS buff compared to the 11 points Assault bot would have done. You're dealing damage, just FAR more effectively through another player than through your pet. If your ego demands that you be a DPS rather than a buffer, then consider your teams mates as more powerful versions of your pets. You can buff the stupid way or the smart way. You were "pigeon holed" as a buffer the second you selected the Time power set. I solo all the time so I can go at my own pace I imagine others do the sameQuote:
No idea why people say this. I never go without a team. If no one invites me I just make a team myself. -
Thx Planet, and LineNoise

I'd like to know if the hit checks from the two mez toggles generate fury; I know the enemies who aren't attacking you because they are mezzed will not be able to generate fury for you.

Quote:I'm not 100% sure but I don't think SOA web grenade has -kbOriginally Posted by Redlynne
Surprisingly enough, it does actually make a difference (that's noticeable) in actual gameplay. My stock'n'trade open move(s) on a new spawn group are:
1. Web Grenade (to Immobilize)
2. Venom Grenade (AoE Damage and debuff Resistances)
3. Frag Grenade (AoE Damage, Knockback mitigated by Web Grenade)
4. Heavy Burst (Cone Damage)
5. Burst
... wash, rinse, repeat ...
When I'm Malefactored down to lower levels, I find myself needing to make use of Single Shot to round out the attack chain so I don't have downtime pauses. I also find Single Shot/Burst get used a LOT more often at lower levels (no surprise there), while Single Shot tends to become less important at higher levels (where Agility Alpha kicks in to boost Recharge in everything). So it's not like I'd want to delete Single Shot from my build, since it proves useful over too wide a level range for dealing with Exemplar reductions in IO enhancement strength. -
Quote:Clearly we disagree I say they promoted/advertised a system you seem to have a different opinin; it is what it isOriginally Posted by UberGuy
Sorry, information on the forums are not "advertisement".It's ok for you to be tired of it; that is your right, but i'm saying and will say for sometime that "they advertised it and changed on me" furthermore "handled it poorly" is a gross understatement they have every ability to make it right but there infinitely more concerned with retaining profits and not setting inconvenient precedentsQuote:
This is an MMO. Stuff changes. They handled it poorly, but this stuff of "they advertised it and changed on me" is tiresome. -
Quote:Imo what they should do isOriginally Posted by Kitsune Knight
Yeah, what Aett said. BABs, back in the day, said that Brawl was actually the most complex power in the game animation-wise, because it's intended to never force redraw.
It's possible that the tech has improved since then, but, if it seems probable that if they get to the point where making powers like Kick not force redraw isn't too bad of a time investment, they'd probably want to go through and do as many as makes sense.
-just add an advanced brawl to the fighting pool
-replace the animations of boxing and kick with brawl if player is a weapon user
-Allow us to just skip these powers so we can get to the ones that are useful to most builds -
Quote:We all didOriginally Posted by DarkSideLeague
I'm more upset about the 90% proc cap being floated in the proc change thread - I *DID* buy that lockdown proc for my Soul Storm power with the understanding it was WAI at 100% proc rate.
They knew full well 100% proccing was possible and they knew this before the fandom knew, when they advertised the system to us they told 100% proccing was possible that we could add 100% recharge enhancement to that and add an additional 100% global recharge on top of that and still be at 100%. That's what they advertised though the have no intention of honoring that or restoring point purchasses
Got Bilked? -
They should have just made it an attack chopper like we sometimes see in the going rogue warehouse maps

I think I'll swear off opposite side TFing till it's fixed again -
Quote:It's not about protecting your exclusiveness value it's about protecting the t9 vip sales modelOriginally Posted by DevilYouKnow
Not that it matters, but I spent a of money getting two separate accounts to tier 9 because I wanted the celestial armor set. I'm all for these being available on the market.
Keep in mind that you don't spend money to get the reward tokens, you are buying points which you use to get stuff. The T9 costumes pieces are just a bonus.
We got them early, we didn't have to spend any additional points to get them so why not let premium and free players buy them? Maybe the money they spend will let them design a new costume set that I will enjoy.
I just don't see how letting others get the pieces reduces my game play value. I'm a VIP because I want to play the whole game, all of it. Even if there were no T9 Costume sets, I would still be a VIP. If you upset about VIP stuff being available and you don't think VIP is worth it, then go premium.
Besides, it's a costume pack for a video game, not live saving cancer treatments. Let's try and keep things in perspective. -
