  1. My Claws/SR
    Probably cost me a few bill and countless respec
    The others are probably around 1-2 bill each
  2. I could see a couple of things that could be changed on that...







    The formatting code and the data chunk.
    I needs the chunk!!!
  3. +2/x1 I think. been a while, gonna have to try this again
  4. been a few months I guess... so OK
  5. never!!!!

    mine... all mine!!!

    muhahahahaha
  6. I got a build with 35% melee, s/l defense at softcap and 67.5% recharge before hasten that I wanted to try out. But seeing as all those KC's are porbably going to my db/da, i'll probably never get to. I'll post up that build when I get home.
  7. I use to think my claws/sr could pull it off. Then after about 30 minutes of no progress I gave up. Gonna have to try her on my katana/regen... yes I said regen...

    Spot on
    If a WP scrapper with 50% s/l resists and 50% less HP can do it... what's stopping a tank?
    WP Tanks with S/L/F/C/E/N at 45% defense with 680% regen with 1 foe in range on top of cap HP??? juicy!!!

    this why I say a Blaster!!!

    You may want to go and look up the ST damages on a FM Tanker.Its alot better then you think it is.
    looking...looking...looking...
    lol tanks

    Iv been looking back at Katana and FM for the 2 ATs and have figured out a Katana Scrapper will only out damage a FM Tanker if it Crits for a ST shot.
    lol

    Quote:
    Lets not forget FE (Fiery Embrace) grants a additional 10 seconds making it 20 seconds of 100% damage buffage for the Tanker provided its Melee is Fire based.

    The kat/FA Scrapper gets that same 100% damage boost, but for 10 seconds.

    So not only can the FA/FM Tanker use up 10 seconds for its AoE, but it can splash out 4-5 ST Attacks with the remaining time that FE gives an aditional 10 seconds on.

    So no, a Kat/FA Scrapper cant out damage a FM Tanker...unless he crits with a big ST Attack with FE in effect, he wont beat the Tanker.
    lol

    Currently 41 and running at +1/x6. I like to have them packed in for the AV combo. Though it is comedy watching them stagger along like drunkin foos

    A Katana anything scrapper would be a bit tougher than an SOed fire/* tank
  12. Well it doesn't work like I thought it would
    Darn mez takes turn so the bad guys still wander off



    And I now officially hate OG

    In the process of trying that out. Couple more levels to get OG. Was thinking CoF would keep them in place, OG would keep them from attacking and DS do its thing.

    Gonna have to echo this.........

    There seems to be a general consensus that the numbers do, in fact, come quite close when it comes to damage. Are they about even on defenses, too? That's the feeling I'm getting; I only ask because I feel like brutes have higher HP. If it is, then ofc if comes to personal preference, rendering my obsolete definition... obsolete. (Still. People should know what stuff means.)
    Yep made me cry....

    Ohhhhh what am I to do

    Obsolete, in this context, would indicate that one archetype is "numerically" inferior to the other, while possessing no strengths to compensate for this. Who has more IO's, more skill, more influence, or more pimples on their back is all irrelevant. The question at hand deals with basic, equal-ground gameplay.

    Nobody's trying to make the point that Scrappers won't be fun anymore. Neither are they saying that they will cease to do great damage and have great survivability. The POINT is: There is no mechanical reason to play or recruit a Scrapper *instead of* a Brute. My Lamborghini might not make your Escort drive slower, but if they were both available at the same price, why choose the latter? It has become obsolete.

    Sorry, but the "but Scrappers are totally the stabbiest coolest thing in CoH" argument just isn't relevant here.
    Seems to me like you have all the answers already...
    So why ask the question?
  17. dropping regen would be OK but I'm gonna want to see HP close to 2K
  18. I'm not a big fan of the attacks being underslotted...
    Here's a build I put together without going too much for defense. Pretty much ripped off Katana on my Kat/WP build and plugged in Claws... Good HP and Regen with OK defense and probably just work in Evis in you ST attack chain

  19. That extra -5 tohit or so would hit lieuts and bosses right? Not sure what kind of resists they would have but probably useless against AV's. Might be good to keep some minions and lieuts alive to give DR more chances to hit while takin down a hard target.
  20. EarthMelee huh...

    Does scrappers get that too?



    Can't believe I just read 10 pages of a tanker thread... there goes 3 hours of work I can't get back...


    Yes I'm a slow reader!!!
  21. Well since it's gonna be my first 50 of either DB/* or */DA, I want it to be OK at the very least

    I have no problem throwing purples in the build

    I could almost get it, but either regen is low or Typhoon's Edge is not on the build plus the accuracy is a bit tough to get to...
  22. Something I've been trying to get to...

    ...1800+ HP with all the accolades
    ...S/L defense at 45
    ...BF -> AV combo without gaps
    ...Typhoon's Edge included
    ...280%+ Regen
    ...CoF Included
    ...DR at 14 seconds recharge and 50%+ Heal with 1 foe
    ...Accuracy at cap against +4 (using 1x BF)
    ...Endless endurance with either CoF or Death Shroud on

    Edit: ohhh no PvP IO's please as I am poor

    Possible?
    Please say yes
