    Core seems to be better for nearly everything else.

    Coupling Radial Hybrid with Rebirth Destiny is just plain crazy levels of survivability. I'm probably stronger than many raid bosses are in other MMOs.
    I just spent some time in Mids and found what I thought to be pretty interesting. While we don't have toggle IH back, we do have it almost full time now.

    Between IH with 190s recharge, the wonderful new melee hybrid, and rebirth destiny. I am tempted to roll up my first regen toon since that one guy worked on the Dev team.

    New shower curtain I made tonight.



    It's rather nice to sit at my computer with a coh mug and place it on the coh coaster while I move my mouse on my coh mouse pad. I need to do the keyboard next.

    I'm going to need you to make some of these for my mancave, aka my SG Base.

    Melee AT for me?

    Thanks gang!
    Just wanted to clarify here. The soft cap is the same for all AT's, and most brutes can reach the softcap fairly easily, or get close enough to softcap with a purple inspiration. What they can't do is reach the res cap without outside buffs, except for particular set, such as fire reaching the fire res cap, and elec reaching energy res cap.

    My invuln brute has 49% def to s/l, 44% to e/ne, and 32 to f/c with only one foe in range of invincibility. So I'm soft capped to s/l/e/n, and a small purple from f/c. I have 70% res to s/l, 25 to e/n, and 30 to f/c. I also have DP to heal me and boost my max hp. When I use DP, I hit the brute HP cap. And this is using Fm, so no help from my primary set.

    I am hereby stupified.

    Just looked at this on my /Inv brute.

    With 1 foe in range of invincibility and melee core my def is:
    49% s/l
    44% e/n
    32% f/c

    Res is:
    87.6 S/L
    41.8 e/n
    46.7 f/c
    42.9 Tox
    20 Psy

    Reg 526% Thats roughly 38 hp/s w/o DP. With DP it goes to 56 hp/s

    Now, if I get surrounded by mobs, which I frequently do, the numbers get better.

    Def
    S/L 60.8
    E/N 55.8
    f/c 44.5

    Res
    S/L 96% (Capped at 90)
    E/N 50.7%
    F/C 55.6%
    Tox 51.9%
    Psi 29%

    Regen 659% 47.35 Hp/s, with DP that turns into 70 Hp/s

    Plus I have rebirth on top of that.
  5. Forevermore
    Great, now the only question is which toon do I dust off. My Wm/Sr scrapper, Claws/Sr, or Fm/Inv brute. Ah, decisions, decisions.


    Also, has anyone tried using it with a regen toon?
  6. Forevermore
    I have a couple of toons that I feel are nearly unkillable. Of course, sometimes the RNG happens and they die, but what can you do? So I am thinking of unlocking hybrid slot on them and goin for the melee tree. Is the added regen and resistance really noticable?

    Rumor has it that this is up on test.
    Any truth to this?

    What a stupid bug, to cap the lvl shift at 16 and have pets count. Shame on you devs!!
    Same. I am at 75% towards unlocking hybrid now thanks to Rosy.
  11. Forevermore
    I believe I will get the box set.
  12. Forevermore
    Drop tactics and pick up rage, maybe?
  13. Forevermore
    Apparently Newsweek and The Daily Beast are tracking things of this nature.

    Simply amazing.

    This isn't soft capped, but close to it at 35. Gives you 42%def to melee and range damage. You could swap out one of the attacks for divine avalanche.

    Apparently some woman in Texas also killed her 3 month old baby, ate some of his toes, decapitated him, and ate some of his brain beforestabbing herself and cutting her own throat.
  17. Forevermore
    Yes, it's a pic of the victim after the attack. Reminds me of some of the stuff I saw overseas, only less burns here.
  18. Forevermore
    So, they have pictures of the victims face out there now. Def not gonna win any beauty contests.

    I actually immediately thought of this article.

    http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow...210522485.html

    Which also made me think of this.

    http://www.cnn.com/2012/03/19/world/...ase/index.html

    My thought process went this way. A rat that was a carrier for the disease made its way to the states via an exotic animal trader, infected someone with nodding disease, and Miamai will be ground zero for the North American zombie outbreak.
  22. Forevermore
    Seriously, read the article, watch the video. What are your thoughts on this?

    Tanker damage?

    POST-ACTION

    I was thinking of Inv/Fm. I really love it on my brute. Though I admit that when Dechs first put out his DA Sucks video, I almost rolled up a DA tank.

    Maybe I will try Da/Fm. Thanks for the help all.
