Sorry about that. That link was supposed to send you here:
http://babesofwar.guildportal.com/Gu...opicID=5458935
I thought I knew about IOs and the Market until this guide. It is long, yes, but well worth it. -
Quote:Hi. I didn't like the IO system when it first came out. And it is optional. But wait! This 7 step guide should answer all your questions. I highly recommend High Beam's Set Invention Origin Enhancements - Parts 1 -7 for maximizing your gaming.. . Im afraid that im going to slot this character wrong because i know NOTHING i repeat NOTHING about IO's....

Another reason, depending on which Origin you pick determines which Titles you are entitled to:

My most common Origin of choice is Magic. -
Quote:Yes I have. I tested strategies before posting. I play lvl 50 Bots/FF, lvl 46 Zombie/Poison, and lvl 28 Thugs/Dark. Albiet it was late the night I tested and I only had time to try Bots. But I've had Pets of some kind since CoV was released; with the Pre-Order I was sure to be there opening night.Libbey, have you actually logged in and PLAYED your bots since I17 went live???
Quote:And since I17 came out my bots act like brutes. They'd much rather rush into melee range and HIT someone than shoot them from a safe distance. GOTO does nothing. STAY does nothing.
And I do not see my ranged pets acting as Brutes UNLESS targets are lured into melee via team mates. In such events I use some of the tools in FF to keep them ranged.
One problem I've noticed for a long while now is that they're not speaking when commanded to. But don't lecture me that I think I'm l33t or noob and/or speaking to inexperienced children. I don't claim to be l33t, I never did. A player had an issue here and I tried to help end of story. IF this is a known issue then IMHO devs are aware of it and posting here requesting a solution when DEVS can't resolve it is fruitless. -
Quote:I think I get what you're trying to accomplish. With the power of macros you can bring your pets to life. DISCLAIMER: The definition of "bring to life" varies.I gave up trying to figure this out.
Does anyone know of a way to make the pets NOT move when attacking or after attacking or before attacking, in the middle of an attack. . . Pet commands should not be just one generic command line for all the pets. The commands should be tailored to each spec.
Macro the first will make them stay. Type the line below, a gray button appears in your tray:
/macro Stay petcom_all Stay
Second command in macro form is to control their position. Click the buttton and a target allows you to send them to a location within range:
/macro Goto petcom_all Goto
Pulling With Pets:
Yes, it's possible. I do it all the time. Put the Pets in Heal mode. Find a corner to leave them in Stay. Now target the straggler from the group. Run back behind the corner and hit the Attack button. Now quickly hit the GoTo macro-button and place them by your side still around the corner. I allow my Pets to get only one shot off before the GoTo.
To get them to attack and not move experiment with the Attack, Follow, GoTo, Stay, different locations, timing, . . .
As far as Guides you might want to read Red_Zeros. And. . . don't forget:
/macro RP petcom_all release_pets
I use my Bots like puppets on strings. -
Quote:As far as the different Origins there's different Titles that fit the theme. One at level 15, another at lvl 25. I'm Magic too. The Legendary Supernatural Libbyator. Check them out:I Choose Magic as the origin since it fit in well with the feel and
charceter of the avatar would normal been better do you think
then?

Quote:This.Get Hover or the Jetpack from the vendor in the Shard. If you are over your oppenents, KB becomes knocking them straight down into the pavement and they don't travel far.
I would use Fly over them on my NRG/NRG Blaster. In the caves when you can't be overhead i would KB them into a wall. I like KB but on my AR/A Def KB will ruin my Oil Slick, Rain of Arrows, etc . . . -
Hi all! Long time reader, seldom poster here.
How is Electrical Blast as far as Blaster primaries go?
I don't see many around.
Occasionally solo, prefer teams, no PvP.
I haven't nailed down a 2ndary set but recommendations are welcome.
TY in advance! -
On the other hand I think I'll keep Grounded. I'm new-ish to Brutes. But over & over everyone tells me, "Brute = need Acro." She's still in the early 20s. Thanks guys!
-
I have EM/ELA Brute. In some other guide it recommends GROUNDED, lists all the resists, but it recommended it over ACRO with a 4 out of 5.
But thanks to THIS guide I'm going to respec Grounded out and work on taking Acro. THANKS!
In Dread Tomax to date:
GROUNDED:
9.375% Resistance(Energy) to Self for 10.25 seconds
7.5% Resistance(negative_Energy) to Self for 10.25 seconds
69.2% Resistance(Endurance) to Self for 10.25 seconds [Ignores Enhancements & Buffs]
-15.578 Knockback to Self for 10.25 seconds
-15.578 Knockup to Self for 10.25 seconds
-6 Immobilize to Self for 10.25 seconds
and ACRO:
-100 Knockback to Self for 1.25 seconds
-100 Knockup to Self for 1.25 seconds
-2 Held to Self for 1.25 seconds
60.55% Resistance(Held) to Self for 1.25 seconds
Excellent Guide! THANKS AGAIN! -
Thanks for putting all this together. A lot of the numbers & info I was looking for, all in one place too

Welcome Back Manti!
You, yes you, were my inspiration for my TA/A. Thank you. -

Oil Slick - (slotted 3 damage, 1 slow, 2 recharge). The BEST arrow, second only to EMP arrow. Targeting to ignite can pain in big groups, so use the "tab" to locate it. Here is a trick, many times it ignites on its own if a fire tank is standing on it.
[/ QUOTE ]My TA/A Def is Technology Origin and I use the inherent Taser Dart to ignite OS. This saves Blazing Arrow for the mob, and I have the Blazing Arrow still if the Dart misses.
Plus I get compliments how cool this looks, some see the Dart fly into a mob and think, "that is so ho-hum," then they see the area flood with OS flame!
