  1. The rarest IO in the game yes I remember when they released these suckers, got 2 in the first week from *gasp* pvping. The drop rate was great, The +3 def one was only selling for 600 million. But then the devs saw and were like "grrrrr" and the pvpers were like *meh we aint surpirsed* and then I only ever gotten 1 +3 def PVPIO ever dropped to me again and I was like but then cause it sold for 2 billion instantly.

    Now I haven't been in a pvp zone in months that I remember cause I gave up on the system and my last hope is with COH:FREEDOM.

And the reason is Phantom Army plain and simple- that power is beyond stupid broken. It overshadows the entire rest of the set the way the old Drain Psyche used to overshadow psi assault. It is ridiculously overpowered to the point of why bring anything else?

    I grit my teeth every time I go to join a RSF or a Barraccuda or Kahn and I hear "oh, we need a ill" or "we have a ill/whatever we are set" It's almost to the point of insulting. Why do you think PA was nerfed in the Hami Raids? Tanks were completely sidelined by that power. Let me repeat that- an entire AT was sidelined by 1 power. If that's not the definition of broken I dunno what is!

    If they simply made PA able to be hurt/killed it would balance the power I think.

    Also I think you are exactly right as to why Illusion wasn't ported this time- The animation gteam was busy. Group Invisibility has to be removed from the Dom Version but there isn't anything easily put in place. I say GI need to be yanked because no other Dom primary has a buff power, why should this one. I suppose they could have replaced it with a recolored Gravity AoE Immob.. but thats a disservice and they obviously don't want to go that route.
    Ya no spirit tree in plant control isn't a team buff or anyth... oh wait.

    Or, to put it another way: smog has a way of masking how much temperatures are rising. It's worse than we think. And a widespread ability to generate electric power without adding more carbon to the atmosphere would be a good thing.
    I won't disagree about global temperature rise, but I do find it highly comical and extremely egotistical that some of our species thinks we are the cause.

    Ya illusion is "chaos and uncontrollable pets" but don't delusion yourself it controls very well if the right hands. The "chaos and uncontrollable pets" is the beauty of the set hardly anything like the other control sets. I want this set so badly for doms more then any other set for any other AT.

I play exclusively Scrappers, Brutes, Stalkers and Masterminds, and with neither of those have I felt it prudent to complain about Malta.
    You may like dominators, they're like the only squishy AT that gets status protection, in their inherit power Domination.

  9. its the same as pve(75%iirc) but it gets dred. you take the epic resist shield and you be sitting at about 40% res to all.
  10. the low down on how def works for squishys in pvp zones.

    First off squishy characters you know the type can't get above 20.5% def in a pvp zone go ahead go test it with your corruptor, bring a full tray of purples pop them all at once while watching your def numbers see what happens.

    Well that's the low down on how def works for squishys in pvp zones. It doesn't.

    oh ya and there is no such thing as a soft cap for def in pvp zones, almost everyone and their grandmom has different strengths of to-hit buffs
  11. go the double manuevers double assault route throw in all the pet procs that give +def and
    +res then grab barrier and you little spiderlings became a whole heck of a lot harder to drop.

    Thoughts?
    This part I really love. In that other super hero game when you reach monster island crisis at the very end you take this serum and it grows you the size of the giant monster that's rampaging there and fight him one on one mono eh mono. It was so cool and just had that wow factor the first time it happened I would love to see something similar here.

    lmao best line ever.

    the best part was she didn't even seem upset like at all.
  14. honestly if I picked up a rad and they didn't have enervating field in their build I would kick them from my team. Radiation infection is just -def and -to-hit so you could probably get away with out that in your build.

    I can find a good objective reason to argue, segregation is Bad mmmkay. As someone who only plays on freedom and virtue I for one welcome all the new people no matter free, premium or vip. I even think a vip only server is a bad idea but hey.
  16. hmmm I'd be willing to add some influence to sweeten the deal didn't realize those two sets were very far apart. Time to go check the market. Any offers though I'm a haggling type of guy feel free anyone.
  17. I have a set of Hecatomb all minus damage/recharge and a set of Gravitational anchor all minus the proc.

    For the Hecatomb I'm looking for a straight up trade for a set of Apocalypse minus the damage one.

    For the Gravitational anchor I'd be willing to trade it for a set of either Unbreakable constraint minus the hold or Absolute amazement minus the proc.

    Any takers let me know either in this thread or via PM,

    then your doing it wrong. SR gets 95% ddr so is basically immune to defense debuffs. I've never seen my SR scrapper go below 43% def from 45% on the itf and that was aggroed capped.

    I really liked the character Willow from the books that did that to Eric. Come on, a witch that also happens to be a werewolf! I wonder why they veered off her story and made this character?
    maybe they didn't want to do the whole Whedon thing and have a witch named Willow XD lol jkjk. Maybe they didn't want to hire a new actor.

    No you aren't my man, I actually made a suggestion months back when I cared that one of the alpha powers should include +KB. I'm also a firm believer that if the target isn't KBed with a set whom secondary is KB is should do extra damage. Some other super hero mmo(can't say which) works like that and I really like it.
  23. Ok I have the character made it's a earth/fire dom, umm are you guys starting in preatoria?

    Crab Backpack?

    No snark intended dude you just shouldn't take how a particular individual role plays why the crab backpack can't be removed as the real reason to why it actually can't be removed. That is player justification(excuse) not Developer justification don't take it to heart is all
