Er, Revive doesn't have a disorient.

I think Resilience is decent in PvE, especially combined with Tough. Not great or essential, but a nice bonus to have for little investment. I think the reason its resist numbers are so low is because any damage resistance at all has a sort of multiplicative effect for Regen if you look at sustainable damage over time, which is our strong side anyway.

Grats Phil! It was an awesome final run to 50, I'm glad I could be there to witness it.

And color me impressed by the souvenir collection

Er, what would that be? You have fluffy toys?

Bumping the thread like I threatened! Huge congratulations, mate!

You just need to make sure that there isn't any psi damage at all around when you use it and that you're not in a battle when it runs out. I wish there was some kind of countdown when it runs out because the 3 minutes duration is pretty hard to approximate.

Honestly, I don't think it's either gold or beans. It's pretty good but I do think there are a few too many penalties involved compared with other lvl38 powers.

Yeah I need almost all the TFs! I think I've only done Croatoa, Numina and two or the shards TFs. And no trials either except for the respecs.

Anyway thanks everybody! It's my first L50 and took forever with all the alting

Still amazed by that picture

Ah forgot he was taking tough too, I never will take it again, if I want to drain my end for no purpose I'll go and play with a sapper. It used to be a good power now it just sucks end. I have it on my current build as I thought it would be good. God I need a respec.

I am sorry but you're wrong. With Tough and Resilience combined you can get about 25% resistance to Smashing and Lethal, and that does make a very noticeable difference in survivability. Granted Tough isn't as good as it used to be but then what is after all the nerfs? Yeah it sucks endurance but Regen with Stamina can afford it.

Now, Weave really is not worth bothering anymore.

I'd love to be there (after the picture!) if you have room. Still missing the badge too

Not going to say much about Kat as I've only had one to about level 6, much prefer BS. Anyway:

You only get partial (about 1/4) of the third Rechg. Personally I find with 2x Rechg I can't see much difference.

depends on if the enhancements are green or not.

Already said, I'd agree, only stick the two extra slots in late game if you have the end issue then.

Save a slot here, you only really need 2x EndRdx

[/ QUOTE ]

Not true, even with Stamina 3-slotted I did run out of endurance when running FA and Tough for longer fights with this slotting. You might be able to leave them out until the 40s, I guess, but the order of my slotting isn't exacly correct here anyway and it's a lvl45 respec build.

Revive is pants can you not find something else, .

[/ QUOTE ]

It's not that bad nowadays and with all the AVs in the late game it sure came in handy often. Besides, it fits thematically.

[/ QUOTE ]
Both of these, I would say if you can survive without them to this point you don't need them. Personally I'd take Resilience much earlier and not take MoG at all. It doesn't fit in with the set, and has a stupidly long recharge.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I tend to agree. I took MoG very late and only because I find it kind of fun and it saves your life occasionally, and Resilience because it stacks nicely with Tough and without it I occasionally got stunned through Integration since the mez protection was weakened. I think Resilience will be very good for PvP with all the energy meleers around.

Anyway, you've suggested I save all these slots but where should I put them? Brawl? Kat/Regen really doesn't have any shortage of slots in the late game since ED.

Well here's my build for flavor. It's actually pretty similar to what you're planning, with Fitness and Leaping pools and no Hasten. I was pretty happy with the way it worked. I've been tinkering with it a bit, pre-i6 I didn't have Fitness and latest was respeccing out of Leadership and into Fighting and Resilience, but it was always very playable. Some might say slotting Resilience is a waste but I think even small amount of damage resistance makes a big difference for Regen in particular, and it's not like I needed the slots elsewhere. I had to leave out Conserve Power but I really haven't missed it much.

If you're planning to pvp you need to address the accuracy issue somehow. If you have no tohit buff toggles you will need to slot 2 acc for PvP. Otherwise I'd just go for 1acc, 3dam and 1-2 recharges.

I strongly recommend taking Hurdle instead of Swift. It stacks really nicely with Combat Jumping and gives you great unsuppressed combat mobility.

I wouldn't personally take the Concealment pool for a scrapper but that's just me.. I can't see the fun in it

Yesterday was the day of many dings: Force of Will hit 50 too while fighting Praetorians and there's no thread about it yet, so huge congratulations to my SG mate!

Huge grats, Colette! Well deserved, I'm just sorry I missed it

Well now I could join if there's still space

Oh no, I'd love to come but I'm still at work then.

I've somehow butchered my chance to get the Tina McIntyre and Maria jenkins arcs. Tina won't talk to me

Oh those two I'd go with leaping, no question. Superspeed is a pain on CoV maps, and while you don't need the status protection from leaping pool, combat jumping is still good for combat mobility. My brute and scrapper both love the CJ+Hurdle combo.

And don't forget the fun factor. Leaping is awesome fun

yeah, brilliant team

I don't think BoI needs 2 acc. I only have one there and hardly ever miss unless I'm fighting +4s. It has an inherent 20% accuracy bonus. Mine is 1acc, 2 hold, 2 recharge now and I'm planning to add a third recharge because I'm happy with the duration as it is.

Congratulations all three!

I don't think anyone faceplanted that much though, especially considering our chaotic proceeding! Good fun and mayhem all around

I do hope someone has Recall Friend... I'm bloody useless with those jump pads

Hi mate, will try to make it with Idris. Lvl48 scrapper, maybe 49 by then

Can't believe you beat me to 50, I was so many levels ahead at some point!

Anyway congratulations! Regens yay!

I'm in!

Thank you Phil for organizing this and everyone else too for a great TF! Good fun all around - and I made 11 bars, I think.

I'll probably take Idris the scrapper out to see if you have a suitable hole in any team

Hi Ilservian, I'd be happy to partake in the AV-spanking. Lvl 45-nearly-46 at the moment
