    As far as I can tell it is completely random.

    I hope that it is a memory leak, it's better if the problem has been named.

    I can't remember crashing this much when playing 1 account tho. So you may have something there.

    :P

    Is this due to be addressed soon ?

    Forcefields are amazing when slotted right...

    My advice would be take manuevers and dispersion 6 slot with Red Fortune's and whatever travel power you have pop in 2 Zephr's in both, CJ+SJ or Hover+Fly w/e you take.

    Bingo your at 27.2% Ranged defense already. They are so so easy and cheap to softcap, take a res power along the line, whether it be Fire shield, Mind over body even frozen armour takes res IO's and drop in the Steadfast proc... and your at 30.2%

    Not done it personally but Illu/Rad is pretty much the AV soloer... So can't imagine why not.

    Maybe you could use broken placate proc to somehow keep the agro from yourself. ?? Just a thought.

    I run 4 accounts, on 2 different Pc's... always have so this isn't a new thing.

    However recently I have had individual accounts randomly crashing, I get the

    "Heros has encounterred an error and need to close, we have given a feedback box please say what you were doing when this happened"



    type error, now everytime this happend it takes about 5 -10 to appear after the crash, and when you close it the updater needs to reverify all the files. 2.8 GIG. Now i could get by if this was like once per account per night... but its all the time ! like every 10-15 minutes.

    Reasons I don't think it's my Pc.

    1) There has never been an issue before...

    2) There are 2 PC's unconnected with same issue...

    3) I updated all my drivers on one to see if it was a graphics issue, it wasn't

    4) It happens even when I run 1 account

    5) If it was a PC error it should crash both accounts at same time, it doesn't.



    So basically......... HELP !

    Here is the build that I am planing at the moment, and before anyone says anything yes I know that this is gonna cost a bomb.... it's not an issue.

    So far this has taken loads of tweaking and has been about 10 different variations, but its the way I like it now... (i think) unless anyone can point out major problems.

    This will be used for PvP Zonal, and Duels.
    The one thing that annoys me in Zones are Fotm Therm/Elec Corrs, this has been spec'd so that hopefully sappers are not an issue.

    Nope still not working,

    Unable to read data - tried on stony's hero designer (i16) and mids original which I use for all my builds.




    I have tweaked a super build so far that I am really happy with so im pretty sure it will be good, it's just gonna cost a silly amount of inf. Back to the farm.

    Accuracy %

    It was to be on a Scrapper and a Blastet....

    the % i mentioned was including Rage.

    Sorry Gamete, it keeps saying unable to read beyond the something something when I try to import that

    I do like the idea of phase tho... think it will give my regen that little edge of survivability...

    Reconstruction
    Dull Pain
    Instant Healing
    Moment of Glory
    Phase

    I would be very suprised if she falls to anything other than huge spike dmg and lagg?

    Tough is all well and good but after DR is it as effective ?
    I really fancy trying this toon with concealment, also would like Stealth + Stealth IO as I am going for an ex-stalker story line.

    How to slot regen

    POST-ACTION

    I go for Numina's in my heals... just 4 of them gives you...

    12% Regen
    1.87% Max Hp
    6% Heal power

    So if you can fit 4 numi's into 5 heal powers like

    Fast Healing
    Reconstruction
    Integration
    Health
    Dull Pain

    you will be getting bonuses of,

    60% Regen
    9.3% Max Hp
    30% Heal power

    The heal power being my favourite one, my regen has the following heal power.

    Reconstruction - 754 hp
    Dull Pain - 1207 Hp

    Hey guys, I have been working on a new toon for zonal PvP.
    I would like it if Conflict or Mac could look at it for me, to get a stateside view.

    Never had a scrapper before and I have been hearing super things about this set.

    Now this is a project toon, and I intend on spending alot of time and effort making her just right.

    I am looking for a build and I would like to include PVP IO sets, Procs etc, and I was leaning towards Phase over Tough.

    But if anyone can help with the pimpiest build possible I would really appreciate it.

    Influence is no object.

    Thankies,
    Donna

    Accuracy %

    POST-ACTION

    In Zonal pvp, what Accuracy % would you be looking to achieve on a build to pretty much make sure you negate def based toons.

    I have a tank that pretty much hits all with Rage, her total % in KO blow is 280%

    Is this a good figure to aim for?
  13. Donna_
    I have a pretty annoying Trick Arrow / Rad fender...

    although team tactics are nade, glue arrow then TP into water feature in RV = no escape for 30secs due to -jmp

    The OP didnt ask "When you're in a pvp zone, or in the arena, which builds are annoying to your team?"

    And just to follow that up with something you said.......

    Surely if I win a fight against an elec/therm (based on your statements above) there is no other name for the tactic used other than "skill".

    I'm tired of this dueling mentality people seem to have as if teaming takes less skill.
    Yeah cause being a taunt bot and allowing a blaster to kill the opponent is loads more skillful than doing it yourself... well done you.

    P.S - I didn't mention anywhere that this was a duel I was talking about.
  17. Donna_
    Most annoying toons at the moment....

    Electric / Thermal Corruptor by far. Mainly due to the OP'ness of Heat Exhaustion, I have a very expensive Willpower/SuperStrength tank with massive recovery from sets, conserve power, Geas of the Kind one accolade, Stamina, Quick Recovery, Physical perfection, Miracle+ recovery proc and the numina +regen/recovery proc.

    Now 1 hit from Heat exaustion starts the timer, if I don't kill that corr in about 45 - 60 seconds I am instantly helpless with no way or recovering. Most corrs will just hiber through geas and as Heat exaustion is easily perma'able what are you supposed to do !!!

    They are not tradable between players, my suggestion does not mean that the player that earned can give them to another player that hasn't. They would just be available to any other toon on the same account.

    You think you've had issues with Spammers before. Imagine what the game will become when 50,000 prepubescent gimmegimmegimme brats see all the stuff you have and send you tells relentlessly begging for it just because they're "entitled" to it for being alive on this friggin hurling boulder in space.

    Thats a good point, maybe the searchable option should be a no go...

    ok I retract that part...

    -I have an idea, something similar to what the carnie illusionists do but a little different,
    The tier 9 could be like 2 minutes of them falling in and out of phase. This set would also
    feature a phase shift power by itself as one of the 9. Another of the powers would be
    a fighting phase for about 10 seconds where the player is unaffected but is able to attack.
    Sound kinda cool, but it is just an idea. Tired of being limited to regen only in pvp.
    4. Tanks and fenders should be given a new inherent or additional one for pvp. Defenders
    Could have an inherent where the lower they are in health the more damage they can take
    opposite of the old defiance. Tanks could possibly be given a 5% increase to def and resistance for each foe within melee range.
    5. Warshades, delete them from the game lol (j/k)


    I admit this thread is partial to heroes, i will get to vills another time. Basically break it down and tell what u like and why and what u dont like, if u dont like something, i would like for u to suggest something else, i would love to hear new ideas for scrapper/stalker secondaries.


    1) Thermal Defenders, yes please.
    1.2) Thermal Elec? Make a corruptor.

    2) Electric Control, with Tesla Cage, Shackles, etc etc yes pls !

    3) Stalker set that can't be used by scrapper/brute??? em try ninjitsu ?

    3.2) Try to do something other than phase in pvp, its not winbutton that you think.

    4) Tank Idea, you more or less just described invincibility from invul set.
    4.2) Defender Idea, lower the health the more damage they can take?? surely thats more hp???

    5) you missed (j/k) from the other daft ideas.
  21. Donna_
    I wanted to post a suggestion but I can't find the thread anywhere in this "wonderful" new forum design. Tried to do it in Developers section so they would see it, but not allowed apparently.. So it's getting stuck in here. :P




    My suggestion is for a Global Storage

    I want a system where I can store (Globally) all my Salvage, Recs, Enchanements, Merits, AE Tickets, Influence and Infamy... but not as simple a system as that.





    I suggest the following.....




    1) Create a Vault/Storage vendor near to locations like, ourob, Auction houses, bases, or even make an accolade that allows access remotley :O

    2) Every active account on that server should be listed

    3) You can only access/modify the account you are signed into but on any toon.

    4) You can place or withdraw Inf, Rec, Salvage, Enchancements

    5) You can drag and drop from your storage to other peoples accounts

    6) You can see what Rec, Salv, and Ench other people have for the means of sending global messages as a means of offering to buy / swap items.

    7) Make everones storage searchable, for example I search for Luck of The Gambler +7.5% Global recharge IO. A list of accounts with that IO will list allowing me to send them a message like,,, "hai I need a LotG+rech, would u like 120mil for that 1 in your storage?"



    Thoughts anyone????

    Nah doesnt make you a bad person, Earth and Ice control are much the same set anyway...

    What 2ndary were you thinking of??

    If your secondary was Cold or Storm you may get away with it more.

    On boards it previews your title, and all I saw was "Trial" Global Server.

    Biggest dissapointment to date when I looked closer.

    So now you realise what the pvp community have been complaining about since i13.

    Welcome to our side of the fence.

    See that dot over the other side???

    That's Castle.
