It's not acrobatics what grants resistance to immob, but combat jumping. Besides, yes spines has immob and without res to it you will be immob'ed, but on the other hand EM stuns after each hit so anything without stun res will also be stunned, let's nerf it too, but on every AT!. And claws does kb, so anything without kb resist will be kbed.. let's nerf it too!. And so does MA from scrappers, lets nerf that too ... could be like this for a while but what i mean is, u can have powers that resist the immob, u can have break frees to resist the immob too, u can team with other peeps.... there is a wide arc of possible counters to that.

If we are going to nerf something, let's nerf TK ^^

For PvP, I'd use SR for both broadsword and dark melee.
For PvE... both regen and sr would fit nicely with them

I have recently invested in upgradeing from CoV n got CoH as well . I wondered if i could get any helpfull advise on the secondary power sets such as pro's n cons since i made a few scrappers.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'd say depending on the primary and if it's aimed for pve or pvp, some options can be better than others

[ QUOTE ]
Ok sorry about bumping this thought it would be better than making a new post. Right then, with I8 round the corner just wandering if there will be any major changes to regen coming? And if you people would just give my build a quick once over.

Thanks alot.

U want BU up the sooner the possible, 3 rech is the only way there.
Parry recharge is quick enough, I'd have 3 defbuf in it tho.
Combat jumping is way overslotted IMO, its def buffs are minor and really not worth slotting 3 defbuffs in it. Since you dont have SJ, id go for 2 jump to stack with hurdle, and that's it.
Same for resilience, 1 slot is enough, you want it for the stun resistant after all. I'd use that slot in superspeed, as you dont have sprint, another speed SO there would be handy.
6 slot FA, you know you want it
Try and get a third dmg for ET.

Well my 2 pence

It wouldn't make sense to rebalance the game for 50-100 people instead of making new PvE stuff thousands of players will like

[/ QUOTE ]

You can't be serious! 50-100?? Where are they?? PvP used to be much more demanded till toggle drop nerfs, but it's six feet under since. It's not that there isn't people interested in PvP, it's just that they've left

[/ QUOTE ]That's the US and EU total

[/ QUOTE ]

Naaah, lots more than that only in Freedom that I have seen

competitive pvp is a very small part of the pvp community itself

[/ QUOTE ]
There's not much of a PvP community anymore, reason why most PvP fans have moved to other servers/games.

I'll be there... till lag makes the game unplayable like today (although lag wasnt an issue last RV event so I have some hopes)

You need to have a valid account, but not an extra one. It's like using the forums, you can't write on them if you don't have a valid account, but you needn't pay extra once you have it

Yeah sure, I have yet to find more than 5% of the people in the zones worth the time i waste there

Not much of an ego there then......and people wonder why other folks dont go into pvp zones

[/ QUOTE ]

I've only ever seen him play his spine/regen there

[/ QUOTE ]

Me? a spines/regen? you need some glasses dude, cos I don't have any spines/regen myself afaik (psst have a look at my alts, they are listed below )

And call it ego if you want, but I really don't consider a zone where 95% of the players are stalkers/scrappers filled with kids calling names on you cause 'you caused me debt you...' worth really

Neither side has an advantage in PvP either - that's what makes it so much fun

Put a Brute up against an Empathy Defender, and tell me one side doesn't have an advantage.

Brute vs Empath Defender in a duel? that's a draw to my eyes

PvP is Heroes vs Villains in it's purest, most dynamic form

What about Chess? Neither side gets an advantage due to powers, I'd say that's purer.

Whites have a little advantage in chess

I personally view Arena pvp as (depending on opponent) requiring a higher skill set than zones. Generally it's a fairer fight, even teams, one set of inspirations.

[/ QUOTE ]

/em agree

[ QUOTE ]
Arena pvp is humongously buggy years after going live

[/ QUOTE ]

Also true

[ QUOTE ]
Arena is a number crunch and there is little poetry to it, by this i mean its timed so its merely smash as fast as you can as often as you can, there is little opportunity for subtlety or innovation.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not necessarily true, have you tried 'king of the hill' mode?

[ QUOTE ]
Its massively uncustomisable, you cant even chose a map relevant to your numbers, how many times have we been stuck with the damn office map with a crazy amount of people?

Yup we have a nice PvP sg overseas. We have several teams going on at a time and some 50s already (with Hami-Os). Thing is, sadly, PvP in EU is dead, but in US it's very popular

[/ QUOTE ]

You didn't answer the question do the devs/moderators arrange PvP events there or they similarly player-organised?

[/ QUOTE ]

I haven't been there long enough to know, tbh, but I'll keep you informed

I've not been severely beaten in some time.

[/ QUOTE ]

*Cough* liar *cough*

I would three slot hasten, and get it much much earlier. and get armor instead of second travel power, it really makes a difference

I find it too nice for pve not to take it personally

Not much luck is needed for that

Eeek No lingering rad?? That's like playing a regen without instant healing... a sr without elude... That is a power you can't miss!!

6 slot AM and Rad Aura for sure, and put 2 acc on flash if you don't want a bad alpha on your face more times than desired... oh! and I would keep 3 endrdex on EF, specially for AVs when you don't have any other end buffer in team

make it on any server and I'll be there (best if globey can go too, i want to kick his [censored] badly ^^)

First of all guys, don't mean ruin the party, but laughing like that to some peeps just because you owned them in PvP is not ellegant

[/ QUOTE ]

It was a joke. When I made the post I assumed that enough people had read the Posse's previous posts to understand it.

[/ QUOTE ]

My bad then, I don't read much of the forums since I moved. Gratz on that fight

First of all guys, don't mean ruin the party, but laughing like that to some peeps just because you owned them in PvP is not ellegant, and would most prolly put off other people who want to PvP against expert players.
Second, I'd like to fight your Fire/Storm, NB, always good fun and profitable learning it is playing against good players. Tell me when you are ready, I'll come back from US for a while just for it ^^

Any /SR or /Nin should pwn a /regen cos of its +percep, but EM is far better in duels than any of the rest, IMO
