Rapthorn - you are too aggressive. Please tone it down.

We are all entitled to a point. Some people may not like / want to hear the point but it must be said.

If we all stick our heads the sand and pretent the game is the same as in issue 1 then nothing will ever change.

Issue 1? In the EU? Yeah, ok...

Send me on the way to get me away from you lot. If you refuse to see that there is something wrong then I am better off away from you.

OK, bye bye

There's a way around it with macros, binds and (whatever they are) files. I believe they managed to fit in 7 powers before something sopped them doing more.

Fire/Sonic, Fire/FF and Spines/Fire on follow?

It (Resistance) scales... kinds. If ToHit goes up and Def doesn't then you get more % damage.

If they both go up equally, you get the same % damage.

If damage goes up and Res stays the same, you still take the same % of damage.

Increased damage means more actual damage to both parties, but the same % damage to both.

Increased ToHit means more % damage for both.

Basically, Res doesn't need to scale, since the % of damage mitigated is always the same. Yes, they will be taking more damage from higher enemies, since they hit for more. However, so are Defense sets, since the hits that still get through, hurt more.

My logic isn't the best at times, but I hope this helps.

We er... we were 2, so we were not Psychic Patrol.

Sounds good, see you next week.

*goes back to the WAR site and planning the destruction of GOA HQ*

I'm good for tomorrow (so long as we're done before 7) although others may not be.

Technically, the Clockwork King didn't kill anyone; his evil, robot minion did.

Technically Blue Steel didn't hurt the Clockwork King, his weapon did.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah - he was standing over the Clockwork King when a violent sneezing fit came on, and while he put one hand over his mouth, he still had his shield in the other, and each time he sneezed, he kinda whacked the King with it totally not on purpose

[/ QUOTE ]

Aye, just as CWK's robots animated themselves to kill people

[ QUOTE ]
So the idea of Longbow being a force to fight Arachnos, and then appearing in zones where Arachnos is present is causing you confusion?

[/ QUOTE ]

I beg to differ

Just so we know where we are, how about a team roster?

Land of Confusion - Sonic/Mental Blaster

Erm... yeah, I'm not too good at names

Shield Defense

1) Shield [Toggle] +17.5% Def Melee/Smash/Lethal, +Res Def Debuffs

2) Phalanx Fighting [Auto] +10% Res Smash/Lethal

3) Energized Shield [Toggle] +17.5% Def Fire/Cold/Energy/Negative, +Res Def Debuffs/End Drain

4) Dig Deep [Click] +40% Self Heal, +40% Max Health

5) Unyielding [Toggle] +5% Def (Smash/Lethal/Fire/Cold/Energy/Negative), +5% Res Smash/Lethal, +10% Res Fire/Cold/Energy/Negative/Toxic, +Res & +Prot Disorient/Hold/Sleep/Immob/Knockback/Slow, AoE Taunt

6) Push Back [Click] Single Target, Moderate Damage (Smash), High Knockback

7) Deflect [Toggle] +5% Def Ranged/AoE/Psionic, +Res Def Debuffs

8) Dispersal [Toggle] Team Buff, +10% Def Melee/Ranged/AoE/Smash/Lethal/Fire/Cold/Energy/Negative/Psionic, +Res & +Prot Disorient/Hold/Immob

9) Turtle's Shell [Click] Invulnerable, +Regen, +Recovery, Only Affecting Self

Yes, number 8 needs toning down

[Edit] Having a look at the unslotted numbers:

Def Melee = 17.5 + 10 = 27.5%
Def Ranged, AoE = 5 + 10 = 15%
Def Smash, Lethal = 17.5 + 5 + 5 + 10 = 37.5%
Def Fire, Cold, Energy, Negative = 17.5 + 10 = 27.5%
Def Psionic = 5 + 10 = 15%
Res Smash, Lethal = 10 + 5 = 15%
Res Fire, Cold, Energy, Negative = 10%

With the team toggle having a -Def part like Praf's (in this case, -10%):

Def Melee = 17.5%
Def Ranged, AoE = 5%
Def Smash, Lethal = 17.5 + 5 + 5 = 27.5%
Def Fire, Cold, Energy, Negative = 17.5%
Def Psionic = 5%
Res Smash, Lethal = 10 + 5 = 15%
Res Fire, Cold, Energy, Negative = 10%

Looks a little more reasonable [/Edit]

Woo and yay! Right, I need some new concepts...

Bah, then that's my first idea out the window. Back to the drawing board Although, here it is anyway

[Edit] Here's a revised version [/Edit]

[Edit2] I'm a little annoyed females can't have kilts... they look so good on these types of characters [/Edit2]

Before I start throwing out costume pieces and posting screenshots, how many vet rewards do you have? (so I know if there's anything I can't use)

I'll be around as a back-up

Oh, this was pre-planned?

Sunday is fine by me

Shame, that...

Happy Taco Day!

Once you get up to Red Ink men and higher they'll start using Kinetics powers on you, and there's one particular Boss Type I've encountered that claims he's only doing siphon speed and siphon power on you, but given the way the power buffs his buddies and not just himself when he uses it I suspect it's actually something a bit more exotic than that.

[/ QUOTE ]

Siphon Power buffs those around you.

I'd say the ones my Scrappers (Kat/Inv & Claws/SR, others are too low) find difficult are:
Tsoo (DeBuffs galore)
Rularuu (even more DeBuffs and stupid ToHit)
Council & Malta (high lethal res robots)
Rikti (Drones for the unwillingness to enter melee and high ToHit)
Nemesis (silly range and vengeance)

Easiest - anything else

I will have to bow out of these proceedings, also - *still* taking a trip to Nottingham

No bubblicious bubbles for you...

I will have to bow out of proceedings - taking a trip to Nottingham. I'm sure you can cope without the squishy Tanker

That was my point, you silly little man

10 paces, FIRE!

I'm sick to death of Dual Pistols sets, at least Duel Pistols ones are funny.
