Largo

Sorry to see this frustrated new player, but remember how those missions were in Perez Park when we were all noobs? The maze in the woods with plus 4 bosses ready to hold you immediately? Die three times just to make it to a mission door to fight Vahzilok. This player would have loved that! LOL

Must be just a glitch. It only appeared when I was on a Preatorian map. Once I left the map, the listing disappeared.

All I can figure is it must refer to a Clockwork power that ownership of the pet errently transfer to me after I defeat it. Just re-entering the map does nothing.

On my lvl 50 Ice/Fire tanker, at the enhancement screen, 3rd column at the bottom, lists "Particle Burst Pet". What is this in reference to?

One thing that hasn't been said, directly, is this.

Having a tank with musculature alpha, you now have an option to go back to each individual power and see what its "problem" really is.

Does the attack still miss too much? Replace some damage with accuracy. Your alpha slotting will bring that damage right back up again, but now you're more accurate.

Do you wish another power would recharge a bit more? Use less end? Stun longer? You now have the ability to tweak your powers by removing the damage and adding what is missing, knowing your alpha slotting is recovering the damage you're taking away.

If it's too much of a grind to level the toon when your friend is not on, then play another toon.

Save that toon for when your friend is on.

Why not use brawl as an attack as well? I mean, you're using boxing. 6 slot that puppy.

Its been 6 years, and I still die once before I remember to use the inspirations in my tray. Must be slow reflexes. Of course, I am Largo...

Its been 6 years and I still play my original character first, on every new release. That makes it tough when the release is mostly for lower level content, of course, there is ouroboros.

On a related note, its been 6 years and I have not deleted any 50s.

Its been 6 years, and there are still some TFs I have not completed. I think I have attempted almost all, except the shadow shard ones, never even started one of those. I've attempted the Eden trial twice, never successfully completed it, attempted the sewer trial 4-5 times and completed it once. Only been on 2 Hami raids and that was probably 4 years ago.

You pick ST because you want to be the guy to kill the AV/EB.

You pick AoE becuase you want to remove all the minions and Lieuts.

Whatever you like better.

ST based toons can solo with bosses turned on, no matter what archtype you choose.
AoE will probably turn bosses off solo. But it depends on your survivability.
An AoE scrapper or tank could probably leave bosses on. An AoE blaster, maybe not, but can run farm missions all day long. So there are plusses and minuses to any build you go for.

So I should put a heal IO or an End Mod IO into Physical Perfection?

I picked that power up on my 50 MA/SR scrapper after his last respecs' 3 freebie power picks (to replace Fitness with inherent Fitness), and I havent investigated what to do with that single slotted power, yet.

HE already has the Performance Shifter proc and 2 50 IOs in inherent stamina, so I really don't have end issues, I put a heal IO into it.

When you see something that calls a pet, and that accuracy is listed at 2.0, means it is autohit. Not that the pet cannot miss, but that you have 100% chance of placing the pet where you want it to be placed.

The pet has whatever inherent accuracy the pet has. If the power allows accuracy enhancers I try to put in at least 50% points more.

The numbers are right as listed, theyre just confusing to someone who doesnt understand the system.

I would definately be ok with the change if they made it as an option prior to starting the mission, like during an Ice crystal mission.

Enemies constantly buffed....NO
Players constanly debuffed....NO
Heals, Buffs, Debuffs cause agro...YES

I'd pick it every time.

The only one that would be exempt would be Mind control, because the hidden factor is important. You couldnt confuse a Boss once and have him agro onto you.

It worked when there was just CoH because we had a couple zones with only interior lakes. IF you remember, IndyPort water never froze, PI water never froze. NOW add in Rogue Isles, every zone is surrounded by water, no freezing there, not fair to villain side to not have an ice skating rink. Not to mention Praetoria...you see it is trickier that just turning a few hero only lakes to ice. Although most would have been ok with it, a few would have cried unfair.

Can I ask why you cant just slide around the ski chalet mini zone and throw snowballs there?

I suggest a neat thing they could have done is either in the AI building or the PvPArena, create a skating rink map, that all players could do is slide around and throw unlimited snowballs..that would be/could be fun.

The Ragnarok chance for KD proc works great in caltrops. If you can get it, I recommend it.

This is asked every year Im sure. How do I find the demon halo in the costume creator after I've purchased it with 25 Candy Canes? I can't find it.

I use Opressive Gloom on my Dark/Dark/Soul stalker. It works well to keep the minions stunned after the Assassin Strike. (It stays supressed on a stalker until you chose to break out of Hide)

There have been a few threads stating the (Purple)Absolute Amazement proc is not working at all in any power. Don't waste a slot in this power for this proc until it gets fixed.

I just tried it on my /Fire blaster, and my Fire/ tank, and it is working fine on them. So he must mean a scrapper.

Mind/Rad controller, very capable soloer.

My Ice/Fire tank, John van der Waals, is so ready to take down Lady Winter!! Bring it! Im immune to your powers you frozen female. I shall taunt you endlessly.

If you need a spot to put some of your Touch of the Nictus, put them in Siphon Life. But keep the Kinetic Combat chance for KD proc in there, its very thematic. The animation looks like it lifts the guy up and drops him on his back, just from you curling the bicep...excellent.
In terms of playstyle I can concur that my experience matches yours in many respecs. I use Opressive Gloom, however, and you use Cloak of Fear. Either way its great mitigation.

Most of the readers of this board think Dark Armor is the worst stalker secondary ever invented. Therefore they have no advice to give someone who wants to follow this unpopular path.

I play one and love it.

My only advice to you is I don't think you have enough endrdx or recharge in Dark Consumption.

That power needs frankenslotted to maximize Endrdx and recharge first and foremost, then acc, then fit in what ever health you can. You dont need much to fill up the bar off of only 2 or 3 foes.

I think trying to put 5 TotN in it is just asking for trouble.

Any idea how long Movement speed debuff hasn't been displayed in the Combat attributes or has it always been this way and I just never noticed? Which is possible I guess...
