well the sig is "pretty" much old and yes most recently I was PVPing with a defender.

in Total here's my 50s
Melee
Ice/SS Tank
WP/EM Tank
BS/Reg Scrap
Spin/Dark Scrap
DM/Shield Scrap
SS/Fire Brute
DM/Stone Brute
Elec/Shield Brute
Elec/Nin Stalk
Spin/WP Stalk

Ranged
Fire/EM Blast
Son/Mental Blast
Rad/Son Defender
Fire/Kin Cont
Ill/Rad Cont
Ice/Kin Corr
Ice/Dark Corr
Earth/Psi Dom
Fort
Crab

So actually 10 v 10, wow never listed them like this before...


Anyhow - Hibernate...........argh, I call BS

So who at NCNC thought it was a great idea to give 3 villain ATs Hibernate? Especially Corruptors and Stalkers? Corruptors already have a buffs/debuffs/heals etc and now Hibernate too? And Stalkers???? Stalkers already have good defenses and placate+hide. Not to mention both do good damage.

Then Heroes get Hibernate on Blasters. Ok that's like Doms getting it fine. Oh and Controllers get it, but we know how great Trollers are in PVP with all their attacks powers and high damage modifier, right?

I s it just me or is that all whacky?

hells-yeah I always rush in!

let's face it, Dark Regen Blows in PVP. If you are fighting a dom or corruptor they are not going to come up and box with you to let you get your heal off.

Hells-yeah and it's freaking awesome - The Best Team PVE stalker out there!

I've actually never noticed my defense go up when allies are close with Phalanx Fighting

Look again it does work.

What I would like to see is some of that dual mode powers PVE mode vs PVP mode. Dark Regen is pretty much the suck in PVP. It would be nice to make the set more viable in PVP by having it clone healing flames in PVP rather than it's traditional PVE mechanic. It would actually make DA a possible good choice for PVP.

I don't mind the absence of -KB from the set, you can't have everything!

awesome thx

New to Dual Blades, any good guides out there? Anyone have a DB/FA build? or any super hot DB/whatever build?

Villains will not be getting empathy, so don't hold your breath...

And Heroes won't get pain dom!.....hopefully......

[/ QUOTE ]
I think that is very safe to say. Especially when one considers that the Devs took the time to make a "brand new" set just so they didn't have to give Empathy over to Redside.

If I were to guess at least 1 set per AT getting proliferated it would be the following:

Blaster - Radiation Blast
Controller - Cold Domination
Defender - Thermal Radiation
Scrapper - Energy Melee
Tank- Electric Melee/Armor
Brute - Regeneration
Corruptor - Archery
Dominator - Illusion Control
Mastermind - Sonic Resonance
Stalker - Broadsword

[/ QUOTE ]

Blaster - Radiation Blast
Controller - Cold Domination
Defender - Thermal Radiation
Scrapper - Electric Melee/Aura
Tank- EA
Brute - Ice Armor then Regeneration
Corruptor - Archery/TA
Dominator - Illusion Control
Mastermind - Kinetics
Stalker - Fire Melee

DOOM!!!!!!!

Eh, I dunno ...

It seems like quite a few power sets on that list are real head-scratchers. And there's no real verification about where that list came from. I think I'll wait until gamezone puts up their version of what's to come; at least we know that they're getting info from the source.

Did you read the link that was posted with the list? From: http://www.totalvideogames.com/artic...e_12_12989.htm

It's definitely the same stuff, Dr. Brainstorm revealing the powers in story format.

[/ QUOTE ]

So they copied and pasted yesterdays article from Gamezone. That doesn't tell us anything. Until I see Redname Confirmation, I'm assuming this "TVG Exclusive" is a hoax.

[/ QUOTE ]

so you're assuming the UK City of Heroes site is propagating a hoax then? because the TVG article is linked there.

[/ QUOTE ]

The list is suspect IMO

1) For Doms it say Electric Manipulation and not Assault
2) SR Brutes, give me a break
3) Thermal Controllers, so now controllers have more healing options than Defenders?


Maybe it's me, but it's weird.

A dream come true. Gots to show some luv for the direction of Issue 10.

So true So true (see 1st post of thread)- My one desire is this, "I want to be a SUPERHERO not a super sidekick!!! Buff sets instead of nerfing others."

Power Sink - + end (self), - end (Foe AoE)
Energy Aborbtion - + end & +def (self), - end (Foe AoE)
It stands to reason that they don't drain the same amount of end since an EA gives an Ice tank a defence bonus.

Also permafrost is the power that resists slow not EA - unlike what birdbird said
