    I really didn't find it difficult.
    Well, maybe my costumes do tend to be more complex.

    However a solution to the problem has been found, it just isn't very professional, and isn't something players should have to resort to, to solve this problem.

    I would love for the feral and felinoid faces to have an animal fur option as well.

    However that a-said. Being an animator I can think of a way for the animal claws weapon thing to work.
    You would need have a special setting for the claws power alternate animation that probably only work in non-pvp zones, but yes, it would require some new animations, which is NOT out of the question.

    You would have the claws gloves equipped, and then chose which natural claws they wanted; ones that looked better than they did before. Once the power is hit,in one frame of animation the actual fingers would be folded on itself into the hand palms. At the same split between frames the claw weapons would be spawned where the fingers were and then spread and perform the new animations for the claw attacks. The only problem is continuity aesthetics because people would have a choice between the claw gloves and the claw weapons, and that might not always look good as some players make some bad choices with miss-matching gloves and claw weapons, but that is a player choice. This gets past the entire individual finger animation problems they have been having.

    So yes, it CAN be done with out breaking the game, but it just would require some new animations, as some power alts do have.

    P.S. /signed for the OP

    Fix Decoy Phantoms

    POST-ACTION

    I agree, and to make matters worse the decoys can hurt you too. You can't seem to hurt them though. I am just very thankful for the knock down powers my claw characters have that keeps her from calling her creations right off the bat and I can sometimes get her before the horde is called.

    I have the same problem with the cattletrops. There you are, waiting to lead the sister out, but because one of the mobs guarding her put them down at the very start, or worse at the very last moment, your stuck there waiting what seems like forever for them to de-spawn.

    I really want to be rude to you, but I will restrain my self due to benefit of the doubt.



    All that is needed is the proper gloves to match the actions, IF the player wants it.

    The most common scenario is height alteration, wanting to make costumes across one character match in scale. Doing that at present is a long winded and often awkward process that simply shouldnt exist.
    That has been my long standing point. This should not be the way it is. The easiest way to fix it at the moment is to simply, and effectively hack the costume saver program.

    I'm aware of how to edit the text files to get around this deficiency. But honestly it's pretty sad that we have to go that far just to accomplish something that should have part of the in-game GUI years ago.
    That is exactly what I am thinking! They finally got to character select log out, now it is this thing's time.

    Well that is nice to know. That has solved my problem, however, this should not the the steps one must resort to, to get they physical tributes correct for a high ranking professional game like this. I don't care how they do it, I just want it fixed.

    But yeah, actual numbers would be nice. "Just a skosh to the right" is not a height. 5'10" is a height.
    Saving costumes is one thing, saving proportions is another.

    Say you want to change the proportions of the toon you have, being consistent you need to change all the costume's proportions. To make use of the save function, you need to change one costume, save it, then take that saved costume, load it, then completely reconstruct the original costume for that slot from memory just to keep the same proportions. Now think of that in x4. Simply loading it does NOT in any way cut it as reasonable.
  10. Mad_Cow_Milk
    I know this has been requested before, but I can't seem to find it in the search.

    As the title says, we NEED that is N E E D a proportions saver and loader. A lot of the costumes here are just different outfits for the same toon. So having different proportions does not make sense.

    I just spent all my free tailor sessions, and 20 mission trying to set up a change in the toons proportions. This is most in part of having to do it in quintuplicate, but also in having to go in and adjust the height multiple times, and I still probably didn't get it right.

    So I plead to the almighty devs, make this or some other solution (like numerical settings in the builder instead of just random placement) be implemented A.S.A.P.

  11. Mad_Cow_Milk
    Yeah I would have to come to the same conclusion Jibikao.

    It is actually a lot simpler than that. If you have a weeker defence and hitpoints than a scrapper and still have a scrapper out-damage you that is just wrong. Stalkers are the melee equivolent to a blaster with NO AoE!!!

    So your a blaster.
    You can not do ranged attacks or next to no AoE blaster damage.
    However you have a slightly higher defence, it doesn't compensate for the surprising lack of damage you deal.

    In the end, stalkers with their lack of range, AoE, hitpoints, and defences should be the HUGEST damage dealing class in the game.

Stacking it is nice for debuff situations or mobs with +tohit, but the power recharges very quickly as it is, so that is not an issue.

    The endurance on that build is definitely sustainable; the problem is it is way more than sustainable on an electric armor character. Any recovery that is more than you need to sustain your armors and attacks is not benefiting you at all (especially when you have enormous resistance to enddrain and -recovery).

    Still at work (), so can't post a build yet

    I forgot to ask, are you going to alpha slot this?
    Thanks. Yes I plan on alpha slotting for damage to make up what is lost getting perma-haste.

    Shockwave can cause issues with sets that have a power which benefits from having people around the scrapper. /sr has no such power. It's a near "I win" alpha strike for my Claws/regen and I can't imagine not taking on my Claws/sr.
    I am in huge favor of Shock Wave, I find it works very well.

Trust me, you will rarely use Elude and you won't notice a difference when you do use it once you have a good build. Keep it if you have the room for it, but don't put any priority on slotting it.
    Perhaps that is true. I will stay open to the idea.

    Hecatomb, along with its proc, should be in the attack that gets used most frequently, likely Sting of the Wasp (which you should switch for Gambler's Cut, btw).
    If you are going to use the Panacea proc, that set should be in health instead so it has more chances to fire.
    The slotting for Divine Avalanche is no good. That power begs to be frankenslotted.

    I will pm you a build when I get home tonight.
    The DA slotting needs some thought. It is the primary attack in most fights after any AS. With this build you will have zero problems for energy even with haste, and have a VERY fast attack rate. DA slotted for defence will allow it to stack with itself dramatically; something along the lines of 3-5+ times if the attack rate is fast enough.

    Thank you for the help,

    Crushing Impact's 6th slot bonus is not very useful; a proc would be much better.

    Elude is over-slotted. You could probably skip it completely.

    Some people don't use Shockwave because its an AoE knockback. It can still carry decent sets, like Positron's Blast for recharge bonus.

    Slash is not needed. I believe the optimal attack chain for Claws Scrapper is Follow Up -> Focus -> Eviscerate, which requires perma-Hasten levels of recharge. Don't be intimidated by that. You have Quickness, which is equivalent to 2 purple sets. The Spiritual Alpha can also save you INF because it counts as just over 30% global recharge at tier 4. You definitely need Hasten in your build if you want to do real Scrapper DPS, and not be out-DPSed by Defenders and Tankers.

    Gaussian's is a great set for positional defense users. Focused Accuracy is a good place to put it.

    Combat Jumping stacks with Hover for added defense. I'm not sure if you will need it, though. Slotting your powers, Hover, Weave, adding a Gaussian's set and Steadfast 3% defense should put you at or near the soft-cap, leaving the rest of your slots for recharge bonuses.


    Other than that, it would be nice to know the goals for your build. If you just want to hit the soft cap and do the DPS chain mentioned above, that should be fairly simple. I'll try to post a skeleton build for you tomorrow if you haven't come up with a better build by then.
    Okay. The idea was to soft-cap defense, then go into DPS. I LIKE Elude. It makes for a great O-Shite power, and would like to keep it. I need to keep fly, it is a necessity for this toon's concept, and I only have a little over 2 years of vet, so I am stuck with hover or air superiority. I am okay with dropping slash.

    P.S. Cost is NOT an issue, I will get it eventually, I aim for the end results and want the best for this toon.

    Yes please.

    But I must keep fly as a movement, so I need hover or air superiority. Personally, I would be probably happier with a more offensive build.

    P.S. Inf is of no concern I have like 3 billion imf right now, and can get more.

    If anyone read it, this is the scrapper flying Claw/SR build my friend came up with.

    The focus was defense, with some general buff all around the usual reduced recharge time.

    Soo NB/Ele

    POST-ACTION

    I have this nice little NB/Ele. He is a tough one for a stalker. I find that is Haste>Power Sink power combination does more damage than all the assassin strikes in the world. SO...

    I was wondering if I could get some help building a Mid build for said stalker. I am sorry if I sound like a broken record here, but I still don't have much of a clue on IOs.

    Power wise I think I got what I need baring modding to fit IO sets in.

    The power I have, not necessarily in order.

    Power has not been much of a problem. However here I what I am trying to do.

    1. Perma Haste if possible!
    2. DAMAGE
    3. Reduce some endurance cost.

    The toon is rather touch as is with SO's slotted so that isn't an issue.

    Thanks for all the help!

    That would be cool.

I don't see the devs being willing to do that much work for what amounts to a weapon customization.

    If the animators are going to do that much work, I'd much rather it actually result in a NEW powerset, instead of just an option for the people who play one powerset. You know, beastial claws would be the same amount of work as animating a staffs powerset. If we can only have one or the other (which would be likely), I'd rather get the new set and deal with the claws as they are.
    Unless your a developer, I would have to disagree.

    I play concepts more than effectiveness, I have a claw/nin I got to 50, and I am just happy playing it, but even I find it is a little week. Eviscerate should work just like the scrapper version, and even the eviscerate is on the week side!!! This set needs to be fixed.
