As to other GM's, you should find the Ghost of Scrapyard in Sharkshead Isle. A GM that wanders aaround with his own personal herd if you let him build up for too long.

Met him in Beta, he hurts. Lots.

And personally I find slotting Fast Healing and Health a bit of a waste, the regen isn't much good in a battle, all it really does is give you slightly less waiting between battles.

[/ QUOTE ]

Base + 1 FH = 86.5 seconds or 277.5% Regen
Base + 3 FH = 74.4 seconds or 322.4% Regen
Base + 1 FH + 1 H = 72.3seconds or 332.2% Regen
Base + 3 FH + 1 H = 63.7seconds or 377.0% Regen
Base + 3 FH + 3 H = 59.9seconds or 401.0% Regen

Personally i'm going for 3FH + 3H, with Integration on as well I get 647.5% regen so that means 62% of my regen ability is always available and costs no endurance. And with ED I have the slots spare to do this.

Forget pulling aggro off team mates Taunt makes fury, more fury is good

Claws/Ninja I don't think I seen yet.

Got Misstress Icestrike on Defiant, Claws/Ninjitsu

Personal preference would go with MoG, there have been times i've worked magic with that (and other times when i died faster ) and pulled back a win against mobs that should have killed me.

when i left riding a goat

[/ QUOTE ]

Just when you thought CoH had everything

[/ QUOTE ]
Hmm i should use more punctuation, wasn't my goat it was Silence's

I think he is a Dwarven Warrior, not sure never saw him he was about 10 levels above me when i left riding a goat off into strange lands.

Nope he's still loving it in WoW, something stupid about lots of high level content now he's hit 60.

He still posts on the TC forums occasionally

Revive vs Resiliance, they're both naff one or the other doesn't really matter. Revive to always be able to rez or Resiliance to reduce disorient time both work depends on your preference.

[/ QUOTE ]

Resilience is one of the most important powers you can have. Since I've had it I've never been disorientated, stunned, held or knocked back. My toggles have never been knocked off. To be honest I'm amazed its survived the various rounds of nerfing.

[/ QUOTE ]
Integration does all that. But even Integration can be knocked off under certain extreme cases.

Resilaince only provides Disorient resistance. Effect resistance is not the same as protection. Protection stops effects from working in the first place, resistance only reduces the amount of time those effects will last on you.

Integration offers protection and resistance, making it harder to stack holds on you. But thats getting further into it than we need

Only thing i don't like about Fire is the lack of knockback protection. This pretty much forces you into superjump for acrobatics.

But in fires favour it does have an end recovery power. I made a DM/Fire in Beta and with Dark Consumption and Consumer i manged to survice without Stamina.

and now eagle claw hurts more than shadow maul

lets both attack PowerNova and see who makes him cry most

[ QUOTE ]
out damaged other scrappers on my team untill they went: "booohoo what is that your using!" and I go: "It's shadowmaul and it ownzorz!"

[/ QUOTE ]
Amen, nothing hurts like a Shadow Maul

Hasten is still there, so putting in 2 recharge is over kill. The single one will get you through the hasten down time.

Sure Gamblers Cut doesn't do much damage but thats not what i put it in there for. Its primary role is a fast attack for interrupt and filling in the attack cycle when others are recharging.

MoG caps resist with one slot but DEF buffs take all you can especially if you intend to go up against +2 Bosses or AVs

With the ACC in each attack six slotting FA was a waste IMO

Revive vs Resiliance, they're both naff one or the other doesn't really matter. Revive to always be able to rez or Resiliance to reduce disorient time both work depends on your preference.

FH and Health hate slotting them but for any kind of post ED survivability you're going to need to.

[ QUOTE ]
Ether, did you mean Sting of the Wasp as Power 1 instead of Gamblers Cut? SotW is the slash down, GC is the Zorro-esque attack that does less damage.

[/ QUOTE ]
Less damage but faster (by about 5 seconds), makes it good for chaining attacks.

My thoughts on a build

The slotting order is probably a little off i'm still tweaking.

You appear to be confused, the SMASH! is not honorable or respectful. The SMASH! is walking death and pain.
