JeffVader

I just wanted to list the two reasons that make me select Tactics over FA

Hello, scrapper forum!

I'm Jeff Vader and somewhat of a number-cruncher. I've been playing for 42 months and mostly now on my Claws/Regen Scrapper. Anyway, I'll be posting here frequently as Scrappers are my favourite AT!

I'd replace Focused Accuracy with Tactics.

Tactics provides 7% tohit (at base) and Focused Accuracy provides 5% tohit (at base).
Tactics costs 0.39 end/sec (at base) and Focused Accuracy costs 0.78 end/sec (at base).

Gratz buddy! That's very impressive!

It's likely that you could solo more if you add ambushes for Invincibility fodder.

To run the Incinerate > GFS > Cremate chain, GFS needs to recharge in 3.564 seconds and it recharges in 3.56 seconds in your build.

I'd personally replace the Crushing Impact: Dmg/End with a Mako: Dmg/End/Acc/Rchg. It would result in GFS recharging in 3.49 seconds, but that's just my preferable opinion

I'd also like to say hello to all of the Scrappers here. I occasionally read the US forum, but being an EU player I coudn't make any posts. You'll see me a lot, though ; because I post in the Scrapper section frequently.

It's nice to finally be here!

EDIT: Sorry ; I didn't realise that I had already posted in this thread.

Why did you have to put "because I have been playing for 42 months" in bold? There's nothing funny about it.

This is the reason as to why I left UV. It's MOSTLY full of idiots.

I've soloed the four AV's again and used the demorecord feature to record the battle.

Considering it's a text file, what can I do with it so that you can all view it?

Rapthorn, follow these instructions:

1. Click on "Powers" which should be above your power trays.

2. Click on "Combat Attributes"

From there you can go through each category and view your toons stats. When you've found something that you want to monitor, right click on it and select "Monitor 'what you're selecting'".

Changing the colour of Integration to a dark colour (preferably black).

Changing the colour of Hasten to another dark colour.

The reasons are fairly obvious.

The arc number is: 221114

I was considering swapping Indigo out for Bobcat for various reasons. I'll probably do that next time around.

Hello, scrapper forum.

A Katana/Regeneration Scrapper (from the US forums) soloed four AV's at once!

I needed to make some ground, so I've done the same.
The four AV's were Hro'Dtohz, Nemesis, Chimera and Agent Indigo.

My computer is currently broken and has resulted with me using my laptop for temporarily. I cannot record videos due to this so pictures are the best I can provide at the moment.

My computer is expected to be repaired in a week or two. So when that's done I'll be able to upload videos again!

Indigo down...

Hro'Dtohz down...

No Hud on this image. I accidentally pressed the "Print Screen" key rather than "Sroll Lock + S" which is required for Xfire. Well, I pressed the "S" key, but accidentaly replaced the other two around (STUPID JEFF! ). Oh, and another negative outcome of this is that I had to use photobucket to upload the image (which I dislike).

Atleast the other images provide the HUD to prove that I haven't broke the no temp's and no insp's rule, though!

Nemesis down...

Chimera down...

I expect some people to belittle my achievement, but I hope you all enjoy it, anyway.

Hello, Liam.

So? IS my DM / REGEN Scrapper still viable?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yep. You'll see a lot of DM/Regen Scrappers during your return.

[ QUOTE ]
DO i need tough / weave now? etc etc


[/ QUOTE ]

Tough and Weave are great powers and will be very efficacious at supporting you for being /Regen.

Hasten from the Super Speed pool is definately recommended. It will give you a 70% global recharge buff that last for a duration of 120 seconds. Therefore bringing your /Regen powers up a lot faster.

[ QUOTE ]
also can we still perma DullPAIN

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes - Dull Pain can be still be perma. This would require set bonuses (from set IO's) and Hasten, though.

I'd recommend you have a look on http://cityofheroes.wikia.com/wiki/

It will display informtion regarding to nearly every topic in CoX!

Here's the linky for invention origin enhancements (IO's) click me

Once you've read that, download Mid's Hero Designer (known more well as simply "Mid's") from here... click me

On Mids' you can create builds and then post them here for us to inform you what's needing to change etc

If you have anymore questions, contact me in-game at: @JeffJeffityJeff

I think it's taken less due to people preferring other secondarys to go with for Katana/

Katana/Dark is an extremely awesome set, though. Both number-wise, gameplay-wise (with the utilities), and for a interesting and unique concept.

1) The amount of endurance that it needs to work.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's probably a major reason. High endurance costs are definately not popular.

I also 'partly' agree with Hidden, but I just felt that he could have been more friendly whilst stating his point.

Besides, there's always gonna be idiots out there insulting people. If the problem ever occurs towards Fayth then he can easily use the global ignore feature

Hidden, you've definately got a positive attitude...

By the term "g-a-y" you're referring to homosexuality, right?

I personally haven't seen any "g-a-y" SG's on Defiant or Union. The other two EU servers are a French and German server so I've never played on them.

I'd personally recommend you found your own SG and pick up invites ; because I have been playing for 42 months and not seen any "g-a-y" SG's.

I've been informed that the repairmen bug has been fixed. Can anyone confirm this?

The balance of resist vs defense (2:1) is already totaly out of balance.


[/ QUOTE ]

The forumala '2 resistance = 1 defence' is in terms of long migitation.

I've got the same problem. Now I'm also rubberbanding constantly and I can't attack anything/anyone due to so much lag.

It's not my connection, though. It's working perfectly for everything else and my computer is up-to-date.

CoX is virtually unplayable for me at the minute and I'm just holding it out on Counter Strike till something is done about it!

I'm moving Jeff Vader over to Union

If I don't enjoy my stay, then there's no harm in paying another £5.99 to move back.

I'm in slight trepidation due to the fact that I don't know many people from Union. Hopefully some friendly people will come along.

EDIT: And what's with all this talk of "insolent" players? That's kind of an old fashioned attitude - there aren't any social classes in MMOs

[/ QUOTE ]

I wasn't stating this from my personal point of view. I've just heard this frequently from many players (which are mostly idiots).

EDIT: What's your personal definition of "social classes" when it comes to MMO's?

[ QUOTE ]
Im on both so at least you know theres idiots on both servers

[/ QUOTE ]

Really? What toon are you playing on Defiant?

Well, if you class two ITF's as "multiple", yes.

There was your ITF, which you've been running regularly on a schedule, IIRC? If so, I'll join the next one

Anyway...

My ITF was only me. I had five buddys fill for me and then log off so I could solo the rest of the TF. I was planning to solo the ITF on my Claws/Regen without insp's and temp's (again) and actually record some videos, but too much lag was occuring which stopped this.

So, yeah. There were two ITF's active, but one was just me soloing due to boredom that had revolved from the lack of teams
