It's very likely that the problem is your graphics card.

That's good to hear that you're doing well.

Seeing as you're in Dwarf form mostly, what percentages are you aiming for on your positional defences?

A warshades best move is that they can tp into a mob &gt; eclipse &gt; double mire &gt; nuke &gt; next mob quite easily.


[/ QUOTE ]

I agree that this is probably one of the best tactics to use on a Warshade. However, the maximum recharge possible on the nuke (Quasar) is 72 seconds.

[ QUOTE ]
Half right, half wrong.
If you can't use your power because it's not recharged, you're not increasing your dps.
But you can use another power to complete the chain, i conceed. So it's half right...
But, maybe this other power you'll be using will be not that good on the dps cycle... So it's just fixing an hole in the attack chain but with a substitution power.


[/ QUOTE ]

Are you actually taking into account that the base damage has been increased? I understand that you're talking about the recharge times being increased by referring to powers not being up as often; and that you mentioned filler attacks would be required: therefore providing less DPS.

However, from your reply, I've observed it carefully and not acquired any information that can show that you took the damage buffs into account?

Obviously the recharge times were added to even up with the damage buffs, but you can easily create a few edits to your build (with a trusty respec ) to form the same or/a new attack chain.

When that's complete, you'll have higher DPS than before!

"Half right, half wrong" - possibly re-consider this? lol

Hello all!

I've recently created a Elec/Elec Stalker on Defiant, this is a change in my situation since I usually have my villains on Union.

Well, anyway, is there any SG reccomendations? I'm mainly looking for the common aspects of a moderately large SG; an ideal base; and active players.

So, any reccomendations?

Global Name:@JeffJeffityJeff

Server: Defiant and Union

City of Heroes/City of Villains

PvP Characters (none of these are made specifically for pvp):

Jeffity - Elec/Elec Stalker - lvl 50
Jeff Vader - Claws/Regen Scrapper - lvl 50
Xhalax - NW - lvl 50
Dark Jeff - EM/Inv Brute - lvl 50
Daisy Aflare - Fire/Rad Controller - lvl 50
Jeffy - BS/Regen Scrapper - lvl 50
Deity of Hell Fire - Fire/Kin Corrupter - lvl 50
Fiery Jeff - Fire/Fire Brute - lvl 50


Type of PvP: RV - preferably duels

Times online: Usually in the area of 2pm - 10pm. If I have the time, 10pm - 6'ish am

There is no "best SG".

If anybody is looking to join one, then GRRRRR and Hero Corps would both be reccomended. They both have good factors that requires an SG to be classified as "good" in most opinions.

They; have a large roster, friendly players, very active, they hold SG events, and have a large SG base that provides many of the useful facilities that many of us use. I'm sure there is probably a variety of more reasons as to why these are both reccomended SG's.

I've recently respeced and from what I've accomplished so far, I'm happy with the changes.

My recent achievements:

.Soloed Chimera
.Soloed Infernal
.Soloed Maestro
.Soloed GW (with lucks)
.Soloed PSI Babbage
.Soloed Silver Mantis
.Soloed Chimera and Manticore simultaneously
.Soloed Malaise and a custom Extreme/Extreme Claws/SR AV
.Soloed Captain Mako and Agent Crimson simultaneously
.Soloed Hro'Dtohz, Arakhn and Agent Indigo simultaneously
.Soloed

I'll probably attempt these again and upload the videos.

I'm not sure if anybody is interested in watching them, though.

And yes, besides GW, I stuck to my usual rules of; no insp's, no temp's, no vet powers, no click accolades and no outside buffs.

Dpa buff, not Dpe neither Dps.

Not a buff for me, a change... a wind of change.

An increase of DPA in your powers would increase your DPS...

I've just logged in and observed the prices (blue side)

They are selling for 450 - 650 mill as a lvl 50 enhancement. They don't currently seem to be selling at other lvl's.

It also seems to be selling at 375 - 600 mill as a lvl 50 recipe. Once again, none are currently selling at other lvl's.

You scared me (a LOT) for a moment Damz! lol

However, they've definately lowered in price, and possibly will go even lower. And I've only acquired this information from the recent transactions.

I purchased the +3% Def PvP IO for 650 mill a few weeks ago.

Arent they now down to 100 - 200 mill?

[/ QUOTE ]

You're joking, right?

I purchased the +3% Def PvP IO for 650 mill a few weeks ago.

I would personally roll a Scrapper or Brute if I was intending to create a Stalker without AS.

Anyway, seeing as you're EM/, are you intending to replace AS with Energy Transfer? lolz

Anyway, good luck with this project!

Nearly all of the Striking Scorpions have a sword; most carry two swords (one wielded in each hand), or some usually have a blade and a gun (one wielded in each hand).

Striking Scorpions are well known for wearing heavy armoured attire. None of the secondaries are related to this, so I personally would select the secondary that I'm most interested with, and leave the heavy armour with the costumes.

If, by any chance, you're un-aware of what secondary to select, then /Willpower is reccomended. It provides good resistance, moderate amounts of defence, good regeneration, and a self heal. Yep, that's right! Stalkers have Reconstruction rather than Quick Recovery.

From personal experience: Willpower peforms at a high standard at all lvl's. Some would classify it as a "toggle on and go crazy" set.

If you've any questions or queries, contact me in game.

Since when has it been that you cannot open an Ouroboros portal if Hover or Fly is toggled?

Has it always been like this? Or is this a known bug?

I rarely use Fly as a travel power on my toons, so this is new to me.

There is and/never has been a best toon to roll, but I will gladly awnser any question you have in-game.

My global is: @JeffJeffityJeff

Anyway, welcome back to the game :-)

I would probably say that your recent 23 minute run of the ITF is now the EU record. Possibly, both the EU and US record. It doesn't get much faster than 23 minutes...

No Scrappers /secondarys are bad. It just has a slightly different playstyle to it when compared to the others.

Death Shroud: Dreath Shroud will add a lot of damage output to you over time. It allows you to take tougher enemies in a mob when Death Shroud can deal with the minions. With the minions dead/close to being dead it will require you to be using less attacks. Therefore: providing you with more endurance.

Oppressive Gloom: Very good damage migitation.

Cloak of Fear: I'm not sure on the excact amount of -ToHit it provides, but I've only heard positive comments on this power. It would also migitate some of your enemies.



The set provides excellent resistance! Taking Tough from the fighting pool will add 11.25% resistance to S/L at base. I'm predicting that if you take Tough and the dark res powers, if you two - three slot them, your S/L res would be approximately 55-65%. With the res cap being 75% for a Scrapper, this is awesome.

All of the resistances will be high anyway. Including PSI! /DA is one of the only two Scrapper secondarys that provides PSI res. The other is /WP.

If you're looking for some more defence, then you could take Weave from the fighting pool. It would add around 5-6% defence to all. You could possibly even consider taking Maneuvers or CJ.

In my view; I wouldn't look at /DA for just +Res and +Def, the migitation is one of the best features from the set! There is probably a few guides for /DA that you could observe on these forums. I beleive Dagar has a guide for /DA, so maybe you could check that out?

I hope this helps. One more thing: a extremely common error made with /DA is taking Acrobatics when slotting a KB IO or two will be reccomended a lot more.

You can contact me in-game via my global: @JeffJeffityJeff

If Dagar is online on the forums then you can contact him. He probably has more knowledge related to /DA.

Finally, what lvl are you at the moment? And do you have a current build planned? I'm sure that when you use IOs, you will see the potential of /DA.

Maybe GMs weren't created to be soloed, ever thought of that? :O

[/ QUOTE ]

...and yet...they are. Ever thought of that?

[/ QUOTE ]

Obviously i did, because people DO solo them, what a ridiculous notion to suggest.

[/ QUOTE ]

Your rhetorical question kinda gave the immpression that you didn't actually think about Archy's post. I woudn't call it a "ridiculous" notion to suggest. I'm sure many people would agree that your first post had used a rhetorical question, which gave the immpression that you didn't think about it.

I don't want to start a silly argument here, but I just don't think that naming Archy's post to be ridiculous was a good term to use. It would have seemed more friendly if you didn't add "what a ridiculous notion to suggest" at the end of your post. ^^

I did think of that!

And I did solo Eochai in the end. Using my taunt it would occasionally stop him using his PBAoE attack. That's the attack that kills my imps.

Ok.

I have soloed a lot of AV's on my Fire/Rad and some monsters. So I thought I would take it up a step and start with some GM's.

I am starting with Eochai, but I have a problem.

He's attacking me as usual, with my Hover on so he uses ranged attacks, and then the nasty part occurs! Since my Fire Imps deal more DPS than me, Eochai will start to attack them. And he usually two or three hits them. With the imps dead: I don't have enough DPS and i'm done for.

Is there any methods to keep him attracted/aggroed towards me?

I actually also had this problem on one or two AV's.

I have a BS/Regen that hasn't been logged onto for 348 days. Mainly since I prefer my Claws/Regen.

Thanks
