  1. Hi,

    I like having health and stamina on my claw/regen, the reason being is all the toggles im running.

    Im running FA pretty much constantly, but usually have to switch it off about 3/4 through a fight against and AV. I personally like having the extra end, especially against carnies etc.
  2. I should be there for my first hammi.

    Snarl (lvl47 claw/regen scrapper)
  3. Not much change then

    I'll have a go later on (when i can) to redo the build. I cant wait for a respec.. badly need it lol
  4. Hi,

    I am building a stalker (got it to lvl 12 atm), and need help with the build. I plan to respec once I hit the correct level for the respec mission. He is an energy/energy stalker.

  5. What would happen if I had weave and all the passives in my build? Would I reach the cap on defense and resist?
  6. Cool.. I guess the only option is to see how it goes on these end reductions on the toggles. Suck it and see eh

    Lol thats the problem when you havnt got the powers yet, can only go by calculating what you think the power usage will be and I think I might be a little bit off

    I will try without so many end redux in them, and without. I suppose the easiest way would be to get him to a high enough level then dump him onto test and put a couple of end redux on him and see.
  7. Hi,

    Thanks for the replies

    The main idea I had was to make a meat sheild that is solely there to take as much damage as possible, basically a meat shield for a team.

    I don't plan on soloing this tanker and probably wont be doing much damage (only for gauntlet when needed).

    I took hand clap at 49 as I couldnt decide on a power to take at 49. I would gladly put something else there lol.

    I also slotted combat jumping for def to try and mitigate the -def from some of the powers, but if you think the slots are better used somewhere else, please point me in the right direction

    How to slot MoG

    Hi,

    I use 1 dmg resist, 1 def buff and 3 recharge on my MoG. Together with tough it does me quite well.

    Although I don't know if that hits the cap.
  9. I just fully slotted my Instant Healing and MoG on my claws scrapper and was on a full 8 man team.

    Everyone faceplanted, except me, leaving me with the bodies of my team mates scattered around me and a room full of crey tanks and pp's.

    I switched on IH and proceeded to lay into the crey with the shouts of "Run". I pretty much cleared the room when IH dropped and my health started to plummet, and switched on MoG for the last ditch attempt at clearing what i could for the team to rez.

    To the shouts of "Go Go Go" and "He's gonna make it" I managed to clear the room. Never forgot how powerful a regen can be, nor will my team mates I think

    Also had a time where we couldnt take out a shadow cyst which was surrounded by a room full of mobs. With IH I managed to get it down to 1/4 health (leaving my team to clear the rest of the mobs). We all faceplanted except a tp'er who got me out after I hit the floor.

    I rezzed, healed up, activated MoG (as team was splitting up saying "we are never gonna do this") and Kamakazi'd it in with MoG on (SJ to the cyst in one leap into which was in the middle of the mobs) and proceeded to dish it out to the cyst. I cleared the cyst to the sounds of "omg he did it" and faceplanted again. The team was able to rez and clear the room after that.

    I love regen scrappers
  10. Hi,

    I've started my tanker, and am going to respec as soon as the respec mission is available to me (i am only level 16 atm).

    Please can you look over my build (planning on running this from the first respec to level 50). This is my first time building a tanker, so I expect real problems with this build!

  11. Hi,

    I have had another look at my build, and have taken out flash. Reason for this is that I have tried it and I dont really like it. It gives me too much aggro, plus when PA etc. comes along I don't think I will have much use for it.

    Can you take a look at my build and pick it to pieces if needed I really wanna get this build right

    I am up to lvl 11 now, so will need to respec when first respec comes around.

  12. I should be on at round about that time.

    Lvl44 claw/regen scrapper. Send me a tell.. global name is @Free_Radical

    thanks.
  13. I rolled my Ill/Kin controller last night and played about with him a bit. I have to say that I am really enjoying the set atm.

    Having rolled a /kin before I sort of knew what it will be like. Think this alt is going to be my "fun" alt as i still have to get my main (claw/regen) those last 6 levels to 50.

    Think its going to be difficult to stay off my ill/kin to level my main though!
  14. Thank you for all the help everyone who has replied.

    I think I will roll one of these tonight. I did try a grav/kin before but took ages to level as it didnt have no solo ability.

    Would you lot say that an Ill/Kin is quite solo-able
  15. Hi,

    I'm pretty new to the Illusion set, and just wanted to check something.

    If the Phantom Army or the Phantom kills an NPC (e.g. a troll) do I get xp for the kill?

    Thanks.
  16. Hi Everyone,

    I used to have a Grav/Kin controller, which I quite liked. I fancy something along the same lines but with some solo capability. For this I thought of rolling an Illusion/Kinetic controller.

    I have had a first go at doing a build (see below). Can any of you nice peeps give me some advice on my build or possibly a build for an ill/kin please.

    Thanks.

  17. I'm running a claws/regen and am now at lvl39. I have found that stamina and health has helped me and really reduced my downtime but I don't think that it is needed.

    My opinion, it's really useful especially if your running toggles like tough and focus accuracy.
  18. Can I come too please.

    Payback lvl50 MA/Inv scrapper
    @shattered

    I will be there for the RV AV's @ 8pm BST.
  19. Sorry.. just to be clear. If I miss with FU, does the Tohit buffs still work or do I need to have a successful hit with FU for them to work?
  20. With resiliance, it should stack with tough when I finally get it at lvl35 tonight. With tough and resiliance, I shouldnt need to worry that much about the damage I take. Anything that tough & resiliance doesn't take my health regen should handle (well thats the idea anyway).

    With the follow up power, I currently have 2 acc on it. If I put on tohit buffs on the power instead, what effect would that do? Would that reduce my ability to hit with the power? If I don't get a hit with follow up, then the tohit buffs wouldn't be used or would it?

    Would it be better to have one acc and one tohit, at least until I get focus accuracy and then (depending on the accuracy of the powers) slot it for tohit buff?
  21. I like the claws/regen set. Been leveling quite quickly and have the difficulty setting set quite high so it's always interesting.

    I have tried my bro's MA/Invul scrapper and found it really fun too, but I have been told that invul takes a while to come into its own.

    I recommend claws/regen and take the fitness pool too for (nearly) always up scrapper.
  22. Hi,

    I have a question and would also like your opinion on something.

    Is hasten worth having if I have 2 recharge on each fighting power, and 3 on all clicky regen powers?

    Reason I am asking is that I have one last power I can chose in my build when I finally reach 50, and the only thing I can find that may be slightly useful is hasten or stealth (or something else if you can think of something).

    For your info, I have pasted my build below. I am just about to reach level 35.

    [ QUOTE ]
    No recharges in your attacks? What kind of attack chain do you have?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    My attack chain at the moment seems pretty good. I have a power ready to go when I have finished so I always have a hit I can use. Perhaps I will try to fit in a few recharges if I can.
