Quote:I was sure that a HE nerf was on the cards already... didn't someone say that before, wishful thinking perhaps ?
1) HEAT EXHAUSTION - End drains i don't care about but when you have a Tank with 3212Hp and piddley elec zaps you to death from full health to 0 without getting 1 End back to retaliate is a tad unfair me thinks !!
Here's the problem with this.....HE is not that great if not paired with elec blast. So it won't get nerfed.
2) HIBERNATE/PHASE - I hate how everyone and their flipping dog has this power !
Hibernate ....you can just camp them...phase...i LOVE killing people in phase on my rad.
3) CAPPED STEALTH - I hate that stalkers are everyones Fotm since Stealth IO, I will def be rolling a Widow for GR and creating a stalker hunter.
Get over it.....people have been complaining about stalker since pvp started. Be lucky they still can't one shot you, and they "fixed" ET animation. (i miss the good ole days). As for the forts...i welcome a challenge. Just keep in mind...when stalker's realize you you break hide..they are going to be all over you like a fat boy on a candy bar.
Phasing into same dimention as the Phaser is a wonderful new fix, but it does just encourage every toon to take it >.<
As for stalker stealth i just think that if you have for example, Tactics, Rectified +perc, targetting drone and a tray of insights you should be able to see something clearly thats 30yrs away >.<
As for the dominator debate... Cmon!
Toons like dominators and stalkers should run from a blaster that's not been spiked, placated, held or mitigated in some way...
Was always the case if the blaster wasn't dealt with smartly you were at their mercy but now!!!! I run from doms and stalks on my blaster cause she doesn't pose them a threat!!
It's a crazy mixed up world ! -
Would be interested in your team gathering once per week but im afriad i don't like limited cossie options.
-
I went for TA / Rad...
Rad attacks accept 2 procs, from ranged dmg + def debuff... means dmg procs can make up the dmg that defenders lack.
Works well in PvP, same should apply for PvE
Otherwise go with /Archery and eliminate the redraw. -
There are a few that annoy, not that they are unstoppable but there some really do get annoying time after time.
1) HEAT EXHAUSTION - End drains i don't care about but when you have a Tank with 3212Hp and piddley elec zaps you to death from full health to 0 without getting 1 End back to retaliate is a tad unfair me thinks !!

3) CAPPED STEALTH - I hate that stalkers are everyones Fotm since Stealth IO, I will def be rolling a Widow for GR and creating a stalker hunter.
4) PSI BLASTERS - omg someone fix that blinking placate proc !
5) DOMS - oh yea, I hate the new damage that doms do omg they hurt!
6) 3rdATTCK - Why on earth does flares do more dmg/sec than blaze!!!! Fix it!
I'll add more if i think of em

Am i hearing this right???
Additional cossie slots on veats allow you to access standard cossies??!? -
If you put 2 KB slots in Acrobatics you wouldn't need the PvP Set to get you over 41.
This is conflicts build with a slight tweak to save buying PvP IO's.
Changes i made...
1. removed 5th performance shifter from stamina and adjusted slot to fit on Shark skin
2. swapped shark skin IO's to titanium coating, add Steadfast KB res to extra slot
3. this drops the 2.5 damage buff but changing Power burst slotting give 3% instead.
4. you do loose a few PvP IO bonuses but you still have 41+ Kb res and no need to spend countless millions on 9 PvP IO's.
5. Put 6th slot from blast to Acro.

What % do you need in PvE to get 45% in PvP ?? Thinking about making a shield Defense scrapper but I would want the %'s to make it worth while.
Would probably want either Broadsword for Parry or Dark Melee for -acc and self heal.
But anyway,,, Does anyone know the numbers or the formula to calculate ? -
Thought about ISP as we are having huge ISP issues atm...
Connection just now is 0.19 Mb/sec :O !!!!!
But everything works fine on my 2nd PC and it updated perfectly fine. -
Pretty much as the title says... here's what happened...
1) Tried to loggon to CoX
2) Notified me there was another bloody patch, again!
3) Closed, and ran updater
4) Updater downloaded tiny patch and started to verify 2.9G files
5) Error to do with pigg files flashes up
6) Updater closes
7) Ran updater again, says dowloading file manifest
8) Said this for ages so I took doggie a walk
9) 30 mins later now says "fixing files" at an increadibly slow rate
10) 1/2 way through closes upater, didn't finish.
11) Updater did same thing 3 times over and used up about 2 hours of my night
12) Uninstalled Coh
13) Copied Coh folder from program files on my other pc that patched fine
14) Pasted into program files on first pc
15) Still nothing
16) Updater now says downloading file manifest
17) There is no activity, no download and no way to enter game
18) left it "downloading" overnight
19) nothing has changed this morning
20) I'm p*ssed off !
HOILP ! -
Quote:A Dominator would be your best bet as people here have mentioned... you get loadsa Immobs from Plant Control, So i would suggest that.Originally Posted by AllYourBase
Thank you all for the tips. No, this won't be a PvP toon. It'll generally stick to two- or three-man teams for PvE play, once we finish our current project. I think Hoverblasting will be a big part of the strategy for this one.
It sounds like I should focus on either a ranged damage and buff/sticky debuff type, like a MM or Corr, or something that can mitigate KB a bit, like a Dom, to duo with this character. Any thoughts or suggestions on this?
Powers that have -KB.
Entangle
Roots
Carrion Creepers
I have seen Psi assault work very well with Plant, and the Drain psyche will help with the lack of heal from your corruptor partner.
perhaps Soul mastery would also give you another nice Aoe and a PbAoe damage buff.
oooo, think i'm gonna make a plant / psi dom now. -
I have mids 1.4 updated issue 13 and Stony's version of 1.4 with issue 16..
But neither of them are picking up any updates.
Where can i get the new one ? -
I know alot about both of these sets, and for that reason I have never put them together.
The debuffs and effects in cold are by a majority... Aoe, and energy blast because of the Knockback effects is... well,, Anti Aoe. -
ok so I have 2 designers at the moment... but recently i have been unable to export or import builds... unless they are ones that I have made myself.
Am i using an old version now? there is an error saying no updates everytime I try to update either Mids original designer or the one that stony released with i16 support.
Can anyone tell me what is the most up to date one available and i will delete mine and redownload w/e one everyone else is using.
Cheers -

I actually hadn't realized this until this thread.
(Now, after you've wiped whatever fluid you shot out of your nose upon reading this I will explain, lol)
I came to CoX after years playing a different MMO, one in which the auction house worked a little different. In that game there was more play in the bidding, if an item was selling for 5k you could bid less on it than that and still maybe get one. The sale went to the bidder who bid closest without going under to price the seller posted. in CoX terms, if I bid 1mil for a Numinas, I'm not likely to get it because most are selling for 50mil, but if someone who just didnt want to or couldnt pay the fee to post the item at 50mil and only posted it for 500k I'd get it with my 1 mill bid because i was closest to that 1 sale price. now, to change bidding strategies, sorry to have wasted the threads time, lol
Oh no no, I wasn't having a go or a dig.. and you heven't wasted any time.
I only posted cause i think that may be why you've not got them yet... I hope it helps.
Honest
-
All the advice here has been really good but I think 1 thing has been missed...
Look at the number of people bidding....
If there is no supply (IO u want basically) and there are 100 bids for example... when one does become available unless your the highest bidder you are not going to get it.
Bid high, and leave it a day... You will get the first one that comes available.
Maybe the reason you haven't got one as yet and everytime that you check it, is because there is a high demand and others are getting the ones that crop up due to their bids. -
Actually I forgot to mention Elec Melee, good set tbh but you will find that scrappers will fair better and faster than a Fire Kin on lower level mobs.. prob 50 - 51's however a FireKin has more of a sustained dmg output, it doesn't spike as much as the scrapper to begin with but it will floor 53's-54's in less time.

Quote:As a controller you really need Kinetics for the dmg... In saying that all you need is a build on any toon that can survive an 8man spawn and you could call it a farmer, because you can do the same map over and over again...Originally Posted by random_person
hey all ive come back to hero side the last few weeks and wanted to ask what a good non fire/kin build would be. im gonna use the toon to get mine and my gfs toons to lvl 22 usually and just farm. i hear earth/storm is a good one, trying to stay away from ill/ though, any recommendations?
However Fire/Kin is usually picked because farming is not about surviving a map over and over, it's about efficiency.
Speed / Reward Ratio basically...
So as many trollers can "farm" only a few really have what it takes to be efficient at it.
Main things that you require...
Aoe Immobilise
Aoe Hold / Stun
Aoe Damage
Self Heal
Self Endurance buff
Otherwise you will be spending time chasing stragglers that flee, taking dmg and mez, dying, or god forbid resting because your pooped.... All this I refer to as "downtime".
Box tickers are,
Fire / Kin
Plant / Kin
Maybe Grav / kin ??? ( Just dont take D-shift >.< )
Other than these trollers I would suggest,
Fire / Shield Scrapper
Archery or Fire / Mental Blaster (soft capped btw)
Spines / Regen or Fire Scrapper
Willpower / SuperStrength Tanks
Shield Def / SuperStrength Tanks
But tbh, nothing touches a well designed
Fire / Kin.
Hope this helps. x -

Ok just to take this another step then..
Anyone brave enough to have a pop at making a build? IO'd please... few things I would like...
Stackable,
Tornado,
Lightning Storm,
Freezing Rain,
Huge +recovery as I hate End issues.
Oh and if you can fit Ice mastery?
I like the idea of Ice Storm and Freezing Rain at the same time.
=D -
Yeah all my toons are on Union.
Maily play on,

Although now you got me thinking about Plant again... only thing is Creepers are a 360sec rech!
Ouch

Ok so I really want a Stormie, going to be for teams and playing at lvl 50 IO'd.
I am looking for a primary with lots of immobilisation so mobs can't flee, Freezing Rain, Tornado, Lightning storm etc etc... I dont plan on taking Hurricane and ill prob be a flyer.
I was looking at earth so I can stack Quick sand over and over, but I hate the animation for stone cages.. as i am sure most of my team mates would as well... It's great on open maps but in caves and TF's it's a bit obtrusive.
Soooo my 2nd choice would probably be Plant, or Fire... Now i have Fire trollers coming out my ears with a Fire / Kin,Rad,FF,Thermal,Sonic already so can anyone help in my descision and convince me what set would be best.
I would roll a Storm fender if there was an AoE Immob available but heh....
Help pls?! -
Perhaps Web cocoon blue side could have same effect but be a thrown grenade so you don't use Arachnos Mace.
Was my mistake, your totally right.. Be nice to have a webnade thats a hold
-
Thats why i said "a bit" :P
Just seems very similar...
