Is anyone else feels like they are getting fat sitting there, in front of a comp, playin the game?

I mean, i could run, bike, say the unspokableable verb here..... and any other occupations.

Still Im stuck there,
and i feel like a ton.

got 10 kilos topping my actual weight, within 2 years.

What is your score?

Sets are great. There are several different thoughts on how and when to use them. To give you an idea lets take a set.

Decimation. This set caps at lvl 40 and if you slot everything but the proc you will get this.

Acc- 62.73, Dam- 89.17, End Reduc- 43.43, Rech- 62.72
with the following set bonus.
Hp. +13.6, End +2.25, Mes Resist (Immob) 2.75%, Rech +6.25%

Now slotting that set at lvl 25
Acc- 52%, Dam- 75%, End Reduc- 36%, Rech- 52%
with the same set bonuses.

Now why slot 25s when you can slot 40s? Depends on your desire. The instant you hit 22 you can put in 5 SOs to get.
2 ACC= 66.6% 3 DAM= 94.93

So for sacrificing 14.6% Acc & 20% Dam you get better end consumption and better rech (which increases DPS) plus the global bonuses.

Now you can keep the 25 Sets or upgrade when you wish.

This come to view with 3 powers 5 slotted with this set.
That gives- 6.75% Max End, 18.75% Global Rech, 40.8 Max HP

Keep in mind what you do with your toon. I know a guy who slotted lvl 18 sets in power becuase he ran the posi TF a lot.

So its a matter of what you do. But set bonuses can def make a difference. Keep in mind with 2 builds you can make a low level set toon and a high end set toon.

i actually sell deciamations to the random shop.
Though, u got it right: better have something from anything.

i recall behing the first 50 fire kin cor on cov. we had nothin to play with, but the game we had.

duo is kin /kin, trio is kin/kin/archer, or any blaster.
well, we are a comunity, we shoud have our siege.

or arena owned the dual accounters?

lez be serious for 5 secs: menace them company with us vs others, we win.

Sinple, ez, and fun.

Its called ownage.

u mean, duo or trio???

W.

Fulmens, u seems to forget that one of the best issue gave a player 's abbility to play the content FROM a 50 point of view, aka Ouro.

So i ll stand up my ground and add a few remarks: do not put the purp lines into big powers, but in the early ones, as they are uniques; and therefore will be 'bonusing' ur alt from the very begenning.
2/ i hardly pvp, but i can solo a AE hard mish, or a citadel SOLO with these builts.
(ok, its only 40 merits).
my point here is: having + 40 acc + 40 rech + 40 recov at lvl 30 in all active powers is key.

well, i mean, that how i do, i got significant results.

I dont trust the non bonus-maxer 'per power' build any relevant. but once again, this is just me.

I mean searsy its such a BLAST to play.....


Bad jokes aside I know the KB some people don't like but the damage seams to be equal to the other corr sets and Nova is a great nuke so is KB peoples only beef? Im siting at 35 on my Powerblast/therm and its tones of fun on and off teams. hell i may make another when I get riv up to 50 (for me the game "ends" at 50)

[/ QUOTE ]
"KB is evil".

soz if its been said b4.

I use that sentence ingame. I d prolly still have 20 50 by now,if i authorised KB powers in farms, or as a reg team leader. hopefully i got a 50 rad/nrg def. soloed soon enough to get the point.

Single hardest shot is an Ice/Kin Corruptor, if that's the only criteria.

Damage-capped Blizzard with Scourge ftw.

But typically "DPS" means something more long term than "damage per click".

[/ QUOTE ]
damage per second. i dunno how fast one clicks in 1 sec though.

prolly depends on your fingers...
And your mouse

[/ QUOTE ]
Oh! Well, if you're only counting 1 second, then it's 0.

The fastest activation for a damaging power is 0.83 seconds, which once you account for server ticks becomes 1.056 seconds.

Are we done with the semantics yet?

[/ QUOTE ]
ok, ok, you are right.

Any obvious factual errors, or embarassing editing faux pas.. faux... fauxes pas?

[/ QUOTE ]

In French, when a noun ends in s, it doesn't change in the plural -- in writing nor in pronunciation. As for the adjective faux, masculine adjectives ending in -aux stay the same in the plural. If it was feminine however, fausse would become fausses.

One faux pas
Many faux pas

QFT.

mdr.

only useless powers in a firekin build are repel, siphon speed, siphon life, and inertial reduction.

how do i know, though....

I was wondering, what AT / power set is capable of the absolute highest single target DPS? Fire/Energy Blasters? Dark/Shield Scrappers or Brutes? Sonic/Kin Corruptors? Or is it too close to call?

[/ QUOTE ]

I assume B S /fire scrap is the only scrap with double + to hit, add a crit on top, hitting headsplitter, you slice a dude 1 shot. without support.
edited: and not to mention the + 33% dmg, eventually.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not counting things like being able to slot two different types of dam-res debuff IOs, BS's overall DPS in the long run doesn't appear to even be in the top half of DPS output. Yea, it's got great burst, but when dealing with longterm DPS, it's not up there.

[/ QUOTE ]
im just stickin' to the op, sayin' single target shot. just 1 shot on one dude.not long term dps.

obviously enough, no one answers the OP in true words.
IO recipes givin' + bonuses are related to what kind of playing you look for.

And any serious hardcore toon need Bonus IO's.

But, at what LVL?

I m not into builds, aka, i dont read build forums, but 1 thing i know for sure: IO bonuses should be picked up at lvl 30, then completed with HO's.(thats why lvl 33 recipes are expensive, meannig, at 30 you can use 33's.)
exemple 1: you are 47/50, u want to play /replay all TFS from citadel(30) to stf: with a 33 IO bonus build, you are exactly bonused the same way on a lvl 30 citadel that on a STF.(from your available powers)

exemple 2: you want to PvP? all your bonuses (from the actual available powers you can use) will still give you the same bonuses.

and so forth.

The extra slots , depending on your needs, will be provided by HO s and or other recipes to reach all your caps.

Besides, there is no solution to what is happening to this game.

The very solution would be like in FPS: you want to play version 1? here. version 1.25? there, another server... as for issues in cox.... 14 useless servers, save the servers for the game ppl want, save every sever for the issue ppl like.

i really would like a serious explanation: why the perma 46 if the devs dont like farms? why castle in PI? why PI aint a lvl 40+ restricted area? why atlas is not a minus lvl 20 forbidden one?
its a one click in programming.

Thing is, devs need the farmers, and the rp'ers.
Too bad, they acted very drastically towards the farmers, and the farmed felt guilty, and are so ashamed with nonsense that they leave.

its pretty funny to see how obvious it is, still ppl behave like they are Einstein and got a solution.

Not taking sides means no solution.

not solving this means,
lack of responsability towards customers.

Somebody is biting his nails right now, and its prolly not the nc soft co.

he got Aion

we got Aion, CO, etc... no biggie in the end.

[ QUOTE ]
It is pretty clear that this is the solution. Hopefully i15 on the test servers is is doing just this.
At least one of each level - minion, lt, boss. Preferably a couple of each rank.
The mechanics of the game know what to do they have the right options to pick from.

I also think that all mob groups should be required to have at least one critter with ranged attacks, fight, or reflection.

I'm leaning towards thinking that bosses, ebs, and AVs should always have reflections (for flight) by default.

All of these things would help reduce the rampant abuse that is occurring.

[/ QUOTE ]
my custom mobs are fire/ ice blasters,lts and bosses, with a dual blade melee base. double attack, ranged+dB.
is that an exploit?

ty, i got ideas, but im french, and my english either comes from songs, games, or girls. (haaaaaaaaaa, yes , yess, no, yes, haaaaaa)... im on an arc atm, but im entangled with the words.
i ll look you up.

It used to be pvp'ers that were the source of all evil in the game. The devs took that opinion to heart and ran them all out of the game.

Now it is the farmers that are the source of all evil and the devs are making a stand against them.

The farmers know that to kill them they need to drastically alter the game. Which, unlike the pvpers they were able to kill by changing all the rules in their confined zones and dropping a chemical weapon in there. It has no impact on pve.

The war against farmers will be long and bloody. There will be many casualties and the collateral damage will be extensive.

[/ QUOTE ]

In my opinion, this was an extremely ignorant thing to say.

PvPers the root of all evil in the game? Are you kidding me? Just because somebody plays the game differently than you does NOT mean that they are evil.

The same goes for farmers. Some people just enjoy the game in different ways. This does NOT make them evil.

[/ QUOTE ]

I dont think he was arguing that that was TRUE (that PvPers - o0r farmers - really ARE the root of all evil), but rather that the widespready propagation of this belief by a vocal minority fo players who domianted many parts of the official message-boards has helped inform the developers decisions on the topic, driving them first to turn away from developing PvP, and now to hit farmers with the nerf-bat (and, in some cases, the even more feated ban-hammer).

This perception may be partially accurate. there is no denying that developer interest in the PvP game waned for many years after it failed to atain anything resembling widespread popularity amongst the player base, and many in the community complained, in most cases with some legitimacy, about changes made for PvP reasons that affected their PvE performance.

However, I am inclined to believe that, whether you think it succeeded or failed miserably, the recent change to PvP was a genuine good-faith effort on the part of the developers to both revitalize PvP, and also ensure that PvP could be balanced without affecting the PvE game (enabling them to finally keep the promise they made oh so long ago when PvP was first introduced).

The outcry of members of the community undeniably plays a role in their desire to end farming too. Mr. Miller (AKA Positron) has, in fact, said as much in so many words. But I hardly feel that is the ONLY reason, and almost certainly not the most important.

[/ QUOTE ]sweet, nice talk.
can you give us the reason, in 1 short sentence?
i got mine , very short.
Money/jobs/economics.

What is yours?

Enough is enough, you like RP, go RP, you like farms? go farm
You like travel? do it twice or 3 times a year.

Sweet, now we have a forum, for us the farmers. Fair enough, as we help 70% of the populace, who has proper forum for useless subjects.

Its a win win, unless some narrow minded come over to troll.
But no one is narrow minded here.
