While true, I think it's better to have as much recharge as you can because when you summon them under a mob you get a big mass of them all at once, and you get a chance of a vine for each living dude in the mob.
If you are waiting for them to catch up, they don't spawn all at once and you end up with fewer vines because the mob is dying while the vines are summoning, if that makes any sense.

Actually what it probably is is that since the patch follows you when it is not making vines and dealing damage, and is presumably centered on you, when you already have it up and attack a mob, you only get the possibility of vines for the closest enemies to you. If you start fights by immediately running into melee this is probably less of a problem. In any case yeah perma creepers is great but even though they expire when you recast them, there's a benefit to adding more recharge so you can summon a new batch under each spawn (or every other spawn, or every 3rd spawn, or w/e).

I believe the reasoning behind Positron's Blast and Impeded Swiftness over the other procs is that enemies take AoE damage and are subjected to a slow effect just for standing in the patch, whereas the other procs (immobilize, knockdown) are tied to the attacks of the individual vines, so they go off much less frequently.
I would imagine Javelin's volley is less used because it's expensive and you'd rather slot for acc/dam/recharge after you get the two cheap procs into it.

I heard the reason for HOs over IOs was that IOs from a set won't enhance all of the creepers' attacks... for example if you use a Mako's Bite and a Crushing Impact acc/dam, you'll enhance the melee smash of the vines, but not the ranged thorn burst... whereas the Hami-Os will enhance all the powers that the vines have available to them.

I could only fit one recharge, but yeah, this.

You should still be fine in that case, since as far as I know when you list something for sale on the market, it'll sell for the highest amount possible, even if you listed it for less than that. I sell pretty much everything for 1 inf these days because it's so much faster.

That's nice, you're wrong, managing your inventory is so fast you can do it in the animation time of a particularly long power and this game is so easy that you can not play for 5 seconds every 20+ minutes, deal with it, and have a negligible impact on your experience.

If you are so bad at the game that you are having problems managing your inventory, you are probably not good enough at it to actually benefit from any improvement.

Oh and "ten seconds every ten minutes" is nothing, even if you did, as you imply, have to drop everything else you're doing to handle the HORRIBLE MONSTER that is your inventory.
And it does not add up "quickly." It adds up at the rate of 10 sec of "lost time" every 10 minutes.

Here I'll make your life even easier - you know that you can activate powers with your keyboard, right? Leaving your mouse to sloooooooooowly (I assume) move over to the salvage window, right click, and hit 'delete stack'.

Then don't do it in a critical time during a trial (i.e., 90+% of the time). Or sell your stuff while the trial is queuing. You know, that time when you're waiting around in RWZ or pocket D, where there are stores?

Incidentally I think the idea that taking under five seconds to delete a stack of common salvage or a bunch of trash recipes is going to seriously threaten a trial is, at best, pretty strong optimism about your own impact unless you are the only person on lichen duty on the Underground.

I support this product or service.

This is a hilarious strawman and you should be ashamed for actually thinking it's worth writing. "Caring about immersion means you are telling everyone else what to do" is so absurd I would expect a four-year-old to call you out on it.

If you don't understand why letting other people buy their way through the game impacts immersion, you probably don't understand MMOs and why people prefer to roleplay in multiplayer games as opposed to single player ones.

I would contest this extremely hard because most powersets get a good AoE mez on a decent recharge, eliminating the need to cycle your ST hold on things.

Only being able to look at the last 5 values of something being sold is a pain but there's a lot that could be improved.

Based on the fact that mobs don't die instantly when I cast it, I would have to guess not.
