    3 Word Story

    During one day at the height of summer, six glittering starships appeared out of nowhere. Suddenly everything went dark. It was the curse of the evil monkey that eats cotton candy!

    The people all fled in terror at the sight of the sticky-fingered monkey. It hurled large chunks of cotton candy at the innocent Omegatron Zeta Warbot, "Koo Koo Katchoo", who, caught unprepared, pulled up his iron underpants, and ran screaming into a brick wall.

    Then the monkey laughed and said, "where's my punchline?" A man named Alfredo von Wigglestein appeared and said, "I think, therefore... I don't care. Now, you need to go to talk to the guy about registering for the special buns and thigh class. After all penguins have anurisms and I wear polyester thongs to school. Where was my jar of Honey Bees? Who will not drag my fat butt? Now what was the price of eggplants and bees again? I forget things quite quickly since I'm old. Although old is relative."

    So then my sister Bruce bought a banana from a passing street vendor. He grabbed a dictionary and started to read aloud the definition for monkey curses. He then looked at the crumpled warbot, pointed and said, "Beware! Chaos is brewing beer!"

    Then the warbot stood and drank beer.

    Then my sister stripped naked and started to dance a sexy dance.

    But the police helped her undress. Afterwards they ran in circles chasing Folonius while yelling the words to that pop hit polka song by the Andrews Sisters. That made Folonius roll out barrels of Rikti Monkeys. This proved problematic for the newly created government of the Rikti, for it had finally caged all of the barrel monkeys.

    Lady Grey said, "I like to do weird stuff in the nude with the Rikti." So I took out my camera and filmed her from within her secret monitoring station. "I will never spy on her," said blpup pervertly as he passed out from poison. But just as he died, a passing noob stole his influence. Then burnt his body.

    Soon the monkey scattered the ashes and ran home crying to mommy he'd been Riktirolled. The momma monkey ate Chaos Creator's little can of sausage to get even. Suddenly, the sausage regurgitated itself out of the monkey and said this, "Let my people go you jerk!" But then the Freedom Phalanx came and revealed that Chaos was happy. This surpised noone.

    Then Chaos died a little inside. Later, he got on the interwebs,but got lag when he tried to look up sheep tied onto a kite. This saddened the chickens who wanted to eat sheep.

    Suddenly a man wearing a big target on his jockstrap with three arrows on it, all pointing to his third nipple, busted into song:

    "I can't get any more funny during this chaotic event, please help!"

    Suddenly, Statesman said, "He who laughs first loses their chance to punch Defender in the genitalia! Don't laugh!"

    Not laughing, Manticore took off his ill-conceived costume and started to dance like a meandering lama in split pea soup. Swan giggled and got naked before Popeye the Sailorman had a chance to eat spinich. This left him an opening to get Olive Oyl in the mix. Bluto was furious. Wimpy ate burgers.

    Meanwhile, back at the hall of justice, Betty Boop was preparing to bath her puppy in a vat of boiling oil. She was killed by a man wearing a yellow sweater with matching socks. He also rode a Harley that did not stop eating Statesman. "Lego my Statesman!", he said. Shortly, a big red ball appeared and killed him too. The ball muttered its disappointment with a spatula.

    Ghost Falcon appeared and began to remove his clothes so he could show off his new shiny and improved green toxic suspenders. They not only allowed him to run away with Numina's clothes but also with Positron's sex toy collection. His favorite toy was left behind a pillow so he reached back and brought sexy ' Bulbous Bobblehead Bertha' onto the bed and began to insert it into his very large pillowcase.

    Meanwhile in Never Never Land, The Lost Boys, Mr. Rogers, and Arnold Schwarzenegger played City of Heroes and Arnold said, "Let's get naked!". The boys cringed and then took a bunch of underaged girls to Wendy's house for family boardgame night. They played Monopoly and got drunk. A naked Arnold blowup doll suddenly sobered them up by singing about unicorns, explosives and the Kama Sutra. Naked Arnold suddenly got dressed and confessed his sins. Arnold exploded from his big hairy pet ape named Humbert Von Fardlipp to convince everyone that he was balancing the budget.

    The issue is that you said more than 45% defense increases your protection, which is not the case. At 45% defense the to-hit is already floored, so unless their to-hit has been buffed, or you have been debuffed (which means you no longer have 45% defense) that's as good as it gets.
    hmm, didn't think of that. Damage is going to be higher simply because higher level mobs hit harder. The best way to try this then is to fight lvl 52 mobs at 45% defense, then up it to 55% defense. If I'm wrong, then the damage received over a long period of time should be relativly close in number.

    I've never used herostats, but I'm assuming it keeps track of damage received?

    Simply trying to count hits, especially over such a short time period, isn't going to give reliable results. If you really want to try and gather reliable data to show the effect you are reporting, get herostats and record a statistically significant number of missions.
    My last day of subscription is the 13th, which is a saturday. I'll try to get herostat, and keep count of the damage that occurs from lvl 50 and lvl 52 groups, and I'll keep my defense at 45%. I'll post the results here if I get the chance. No promises since my wife plans out my weekends

    Possible, but unlikly. That's why you need to stand in the mob for awhile, and count the times you are hit. I did 2 minutes.

    Quote:
    The algorithm for determining HitChance is public information. It's been talked about over and over on this board. It's been referenced in plenty of guides. It is because of that knowledge that we know that 45% is the defense soft cap.

    Do you honestly think that the entire COH community has been wrong all this time? That no one's ever noticed the difference between 35% and 45% defense when fighting enemies only TWO LEVELS above yourself? Do you not understand that that makes no sense whatsoever? The difference between 35% defense and 45% defense is HUGE.

    I have a low 40's Shield Scrapper with capped defense to all position. Getting him from 35% defense to 45% defense was a night and day difference in his survivability. He regularly tanks 8 man Invincibility missions with no self heal and almost no resistance. And your stance is that whenever I go up against a +3 boss, he's only at 30% defense.

    It's absolutely ludicrous. And you honestly think you've discovered this secret and an entire community of Tank and Scrapper min/maxers has never noticed it.

    Unreal.
    So then you tried this between my last post and this post and it didn't work eh?

    Again, the accuracy is outside of the to hit calculation. And the to hit calculation can never be lower than 5%. So unless the critter has a bonus ToHit (which only happens to hose +6 over you) then more than 45% defense makes no difference.
    Yes it does ....

    It's very simple to test to. Fight level 50's with a soft capped toon. I used a tank who's defense to S/L is 65. I shut off enough toggles so the defense was at 45%. As expected, I was hardly hit. Next mission, I made them 52's, and was hit more than usual. Turned on enough toggles to hit 55 defense, and was hit about the same rate as I was being hit by the level 50's. Up the Mobs to 54's and the rate you are hit with 45% defense is much more noticably different than fighting 50's. Running with all toggles on with 65% S/L defense, the rate I was getting hit by 54's using 65% defense was the same as fighting 50's with 45% defense, hence the conclusion of requiring 5% defense for every level your target is above you.

    Of course, you will still feign ignorance, so try it out yourself. It's an easy test, and only took me about 10 minutes. I used an ice/SS tank and the mobs were slammer bosses. Really, you could use anything that gives 65% defense to S/L to test this.

    I assure you though, I am correct.

Anyone try this?

    NIX this idea unless you really do truly spam fire cages and dont even think about fighting anything above +1 levels or they'll be scattered all over the place! lol
    It's extra damage, however, I believe you have to use fire cages every 8 seconds? or 6 seconds? Don't remember which, otherwise KB from bonfire will scatter them, even though they are locked down in fire cages.

Which is why fighting 52 bosses is harder than fighting 50 bosses. That's absolutely true. What is incorrect is the notion that having 55% defense will give you more mitigation than 45% defense against those 52 bosses.
    And higher defense negates that accuracy.

    I am curious though about how fast someone could get tickets and make inf with those as opposed to salvage and recipe drops in PI. I do both but haven't kept data on it. I usually only get gold rolls, but that doesn't guarantee big inf items. I actually had my largest sell lately from a bronze roll. (ae wise) Heck, i've made more inf on rare salvage than gold rolls lately. (esp. with those 2 prophecies selling for 100mil. lol)
    I was making between 100-200 mil inf an hour from farming tickets and lvl 10-14 bronze rolls. That's about 1 purple drop every 2 hours for me.

    Second of all, where the hell did you come up with the above? Everything I've ever read about defense calculations says the defense algorithm happens before the level of the opponent is even taken into account. It may change if they're +5 to you, but beyond that I've never seen anything saying that you actually lose defense based on an opponent being one level above you.
    If you have 45% defense, and you are fighting 52's, you fight them as if you had 35% defense. It's still good, but it's not capped.

    Quote:
    From an experience perspective, I've tanked 52 and 53 (very slowly) boss farms with my Fire/Kin/Stone build and I believe his S/L defense is at 45.5.
    It's sufficient, but it won't be capped if that's what your tanking.

    Quote:
    The soft cap for defense is 45%. Other than to combat the effects of defense debuffs, there is no reason to be above that. If I'm wrong I'd love to see proof.
    I'm at work which blocks out certain websites. I read it on one of the sites that give combat statistics. As a Fire/Kin/Stone and being able to heal yourself, it's much less noticable, but playing as a blaster, the effect of fighting a lvl 50 with 45% ranged defense opposed to fighting a 52 with 45% ranged defense are very obvious.
  15. FF is a great set, but the down side is to be a good */FF you really need to buff and keep the bubbles on the team. The upside, you only need to buff once every few minutes. I'd do what Milady's suggested, and use smoke. It will boost your defense numbers. You have great buffs, control, and fire offers the best damage, so in between the bubbles you dish out you'd be controlling and dealing damage, but overall an effective teammate IMO.

    If you decided to go the solo route, you'd have options there as well. You could easily softcap your S/L using rock armor, dispersion bubble, manuvers, combat jumping, and slot some Kinetic Combats. The stone epic also has a heal in it, albeit a rather long recharge time. Use Fissure to keep groups stunned, I could see a Fire/FF/Stone being an effective toon to farm with.

    "Aw, I wanted to be ginger! I've never been ginger! And you, Rose Tyler! Fat lot of good you were! You gave up on me! Ooh, that's rude. Is that the sort of man I am now? Am I rude? Rude and not ginger."

    3 Word Story

    During one day at the height of summer, six glittering starships appeared out of nowhere. Suddenly everything went dark. It was the curse of the evil monkey that eats cotton candy!

    The people all fled in terror at the sight of the sticky-fingered monkey. It hurled large chunks of cotton candy at the innocent Omegatron Zeta Warbot, "Koo Koo Katchoo", who, caught unprepared, pulled up his iron underpants, and ran screaming into a brick wall.

    Then the monkey laughed and said, "where's my punchline?" A man named Alfredo von Wigglestein appeared and said, "I think, therefore... I don't care. Now, you need to go to talk to the guy about registering for the special buns and thigh class. After all penguins have anurisms and I wear polyester thongs to school. Where was my jar of Honey Bees? Who will not drag my fat butt? Now what was the price of eggplants and bees again? I forget things quite quickly since I'm old. Although old is relative."

    So then my sister Bruce bought a banana from a passing street vendor. He grabbed a dictionary and started to read aloud the definition for monkey curses. He then looked at the crumpled warbot, pointed and said, "Beware! Chaos is brewing beer!"

    Then the warbot stood and drank beer.

    Then my sister stripped naked and started to dance a sexy dance.

    But the police helped her undress. Afterwards they ran in circles chasing Folonius while yelling the words to that pop hit polka song by the Andrews Sisters. That made Folonius roll out barrels of Rikti Monkeys. This proved problematic for the newly created government of the Rikti, for it had finally caged all of the barrel monkeys.

    Lady Grey said, "I like to do weird stuff in the nude with the Rikti." So I took out my camera and filmed her from within her secret monitoring station. "I will never spy on her," said blpup pervertly as he passed out from poison. But just as he died, a passing noob stole his influence. Then burnt his body.

    Soon the monkey scattered the ashes and ran home crying to mommy he'd been Riktirolled. The momma monkey ate Chaos Creator's little can of sausage to get even. Suddenly, the sausage regurgitated itself out of the monkey and said this, "Let my people go you jerk!" But then the Freedom Phalanx came and revealed that Chaos was happy. This surpised noone.

    Then Chaos died a little inside. Later, he got on the interwebs,but got lag when he tried to look up sheep tied onto a kite. This saddened the chickens who wanted to eat sheep.

    Suddenly a man wearing a big target on his jockstrap with three arrows on it, all pointing to his third nipple, busted into song:

    "I can't get any more funny during this chaotic event, please help!"

    Suddenly, Statesman said, "He who laughs first loses their chance to punch Defender in the genitalia! Don't laugh!"

    Not laughing, Manticore took off his ill-conceived costume and started to dance like a meandering lama in split pea soup. Swan giggled and got naked before Popeye the Sailorman had a chance to eat spinich. This left him an opening to get Olive Oyl in the mix. Bluto was furious. Wimpy ate burgers.

    Meanwhile, back at the hall of justice, Betty Boop was preparing to bath her puppy in a vat of boiling oil. She was killed by a man wearing a yellow sweater with matching socks. He also rode a Harley that did not stop eating Statesman. "Lego my Statesman!", he said. Shortly, a big red ball appeared and killed him too. The ball muttered its disappointment with a spatula.

    Ghost Falcon appeared and began to remove his clothes so he could show off his new shiny and improved green toxic suspenders. They not only allowed him to run away with Numina's clothes but also with Positron's sex toy collection. His favorite toy was left behind a pillow so he reached back and brought sexy ' Bulbous Bobblehead Bertha' onto the bed and began to insert it into his very large pillowcase.

    Meanwhile in Never Never Land,
  20. Take Siphon Speed. Two applications of it gives you 40% recharge, and gives alot of flexibility in deciding what purple sets you can choose between. Slot Fire Cages for damage instead of Immob and you could probably get away with putting a set in Hot Feet.

    If you are going for Soft Capped Defense S/L you may want to think about getting it to 55 instead of 45. 55 S/L will allow you to farm 52's as if you had 45% S/L ... you lose 5% for every level of what you are fighting is above you.

    If you need more S/L to get to 55 (I don't have mids in front of me) Kinitic Combat is your friend. 3.75 S/L defense for slotting 4. Pull slots from where you can, and 4 slot boxing, you could probably use it in Seismic smash as well, and even think about 4 slotting brawl. That would give you a 11.25 boost to your S/L defense.

    Try pulling one slot from Seismic Smash, Fissure, speed boost (that doesn't need to be 2 slotted as a controller), Hot Feet, Earths Embrace, and maybe Rock Armor. That would allow you to 4 slot boxing and brawl to get the extra 11.25 S/L defense from the Kinetic Combat set.

    Edit:
    On second thought, you could probably lighten the slots in Tough as well. If you are going for soft capped defense, you don't need to worry to much about your resist. Get rid of 1 or 2 slots from Tough, and you could probably put a slot into hasten.
