Coldmed

i found picknig tough in the 30's rea;;y helps...you can get weave..i did but leave it till later is fine.

waiting till 47 and 49?...alittle TOO late imo

i uh....have to find out if work is gonna let me have the day off

then ill most likely stay on redside..no interest on blue until iss 16

Oblits are better for Consume as they concentrate on Recharge (better stats too). Multistrikes are better for auras as they concentrate on Endurance.

true but the bonus's from 5 of them will go against the bonus's in gaussians toohit set.. thats always an issue when you have 5 pbaoes..no rom for the same bonus's so ya gotta be careful

ive seen dream teams base...its very nice!

a.

herding some places like a few of the tech maps helps keeps the team alive..no hating on herding kthx

b.

i have no issue with playing with other tanks as long as hes good at being a tank.


c

9 out of 10..im tanking alone so it really never comes up.

you could always put in multistrikes in your consume to up your defense more in that build..consuyme does take pbaoe damage sets

im just trying to figure out how they drop now...its clear they either took them out of the arena all together or their stil broke

course ya cant get a dev to comment on anything when they break stuff

grats to ya though...im saving mine for iss 16..by that time everything will double what your gettin

can you get someone to tp out?

Building to kill faster does not make for a good team player. On any team that is slightly balanced you will be getting more damage coming from the Blasters and Scrappers than you, as a damage specced fire tank, could ever compete against. Solo it is great but on teams it is just a drop in a nearly full bucket.

Defense builds help to leverage the resistance we already have in a multi-layered mitigation strategy. The more layers you can build up the better you will be overall.

My build is more solo friendly and is heavy on recharge followed by regen and recovery. After that I aim for defense, but I only have 7% melee at the moment so it is not much help.

sure but whos on a balanced team EVERY time?..certainly not on my server..lol

hollows and boomtown...never go there at all anymore..infact i dont like the first 20 lvls of this game anymore

its just too old of content and meh to faultline as well

devs hate cat-girls...we all know it but no one here will say it!

*shakes fist*

auras are great and are usally enough..

BUT! what about that one boss picking your friend off from 20 feet away not aggro'd from your aura?

guess thats a question youll have to live with...myself i have it on all my tanks. but thats just the tank in me,

plus hami raids with tanks need taunt or else your on the scrapper team..and seriously..who wants to be there :/

i actually have 2 builds...one is straight up farmers build and the other is defenseively.

i also agreee on the built to destroy more then built to take the hit...they cant hit you if their dead is my way of thinking..

i never use my defense build honestly.

sounds easier to me then all this..most likely...he hit eye of magnus and his tier 9.

i can sit in 7 gm's too..ye of magnus is funny that way


*absords*

i love bof on all my fire toons..however it is skippable..if i could find the room..i would have it in a second

Thought you quit?

years ago..but i think it would warrant it being ok

id ask for a smoke instead

no it wasnt nerfed...it was changed in beta before it hit live..but since it was pushed live...its been the same throughout

issue 16 is coming and i still have to work full time...how is this fair?

thats my complaint..issue 16 needs to pay my bills so i can stay home and play more

another reason why i tank..i honestly dont trust anyone else too.

I just have to ask it, why? Just what the hell do you plan to do with that character after getting to 50 in such a short time and skipping over 90% of the game's content?

[/ QUOTE ]

^^^ This.

[/ QUOTE ]


for new people i cant say why..but for the rest of us....its cause its old and played to death :/

[ QUOTE ]
would you mind sharing your build Coldmed??? i would love to see it to get some good ideas.

[/ QUOTE ]

sure..since mids isnt updated ill have to do it the hard way so here goes.. my build


i have obileration in blazing aura,combustion and fire sword circle

touch of death in gfs and incinerate.

consume has mutlistrikes.

temp protection is a great place for the two 3% defense i.o's

weave has a lotg+ recharge and the sheild wall 3% resist i.o

my other sheilds are using glad armors cause of the kb protection and the recov bonus's to help with any end issues.

i went for the most melee defense i could get cause frankly the hardest hits i take is from melee range.

i could move slots to get more like taking them out of cp and putting it in tough and placing titanium coating in it to puch it higher.

and of course guassians set in b.u. is perfect.

mocking breavement in taunt

the pvp recipes arent realistic atm since their low on demand and high on the prices right now...but thats what i did

elec doesnt have any defense at all so basically it would all be from bonus's and weave and cj if you would soft cap it right?


and i would never skip fitness even with perma cp..just cause of all the uniques like the ps + end ,numina regen/recov, miracle + recov/pancea +hp ( all these slots come from not slotting scorch . i guess its more important to me then a minor damage power..to each is own i guess)

not to mention why i have such issues with people taking weave and cj for lotg+ recharges on fire tanks let alone elec tanks

too many great things to place in toons to skip fitness imo,unless your just gonna make it to sit or have a pocket emp around then sure..


question though...grounded has what 6 kb protection right?

[/ QUOTE ]

If you had perma CP (not to mention PS) why on earth would you want expensive uniques that give +recovery?

The regen you could get elsewhere.

cause im a recov junkie...ive got it bad...honestly
