Elite Galactical Alien Defenders
Galactical is a word. We just invented it. English is overrated, we're aliens, after all!
If so, you can look forward to these events within E.G.A.D.:- Weekly TF's
- Group Incarnate Trials
- Mission Runs
- PvP (depending on if we have enough)
(http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...=285835&page=2) for the official SG colors and costume theme! -
Cool, thanks for the info... I will just use the ATO proc even tho it is about to get changed. Just trying to figure out how to get more defense and need to drop a power. I might just drop Super Speed and just keep SJ and use ninja run in the missions if needed.
-
I have just heard of people using in AoE's and it help while in a Mob because of the chance to hide. Maybe it might work better in Spinning Strike. Assassin Strike then use Spinning Strike for damage mitigation(knockdown), then AS again.

I was just wondering if anyone has used a Fortunata Hypnosis: Chance for Placate proc on a elec melee on either Charged Brawl, Havoc Punch or Jacobs Ladder? Is it worth it? I was planning of getting rid of placate so I can pick up Weave for more defense and and needed to get rid of a power. If I use the Placate proc on one of those attacks and slot the ATO (w/ Chance to Hide) set in Thunder Strike, will I be okay? My stalker is a Elec/WP/Mu PvE build and just needed some advice. Thank you for your help.

OMG.... I just had a great idea (I think)! Why dont we make do instead of an all melee team lets do an all natural range weapon team and Call it "City of Halo." ...lol
Seriously, I think that would be a lot more fun than playing a toe to toe melee fights. You got dual pistol, assault rifle, beam rifle and archery and you can match it up with traps, devices, and trick arrow. You can even use Banes and Crabs Soldiers. You can also use aid self stealth, but no phase shift or hibernate. We can keep the same limitation with no set bonuses and cap off at level 22 26. It would be like a mix of CoH, Call of Duty, Halo and Unreal Tournament. -
Quote:Would you suggest to use all the power set and not keep it limited?Originally Posted by Sentry4
I would not suggest going on with this event.
As someone who spent the last 3 years with his attention on Fight Club PvP, I know, and 2 of my friends know, there are certain combinations that are going to dominate this competition.
The rules are so specific that I can already see the limitations on people, making it impossible to counter certain tactics.
You've taken Rock/Paper/Scissors and removed the Rock. Everyone will be rolling Paper, and since WP is the only secondary, there is nothing to kill Scissors.
As fun as this competition may be for some people, understand that a couple of us diehard min/maxers will completely obliterate this competition. This is some of the most imbalanced competition I have ever seen.
Do not give away prizes for this, and no dev should help organize this. If it were to go through, you'd have 3-4 PvPers killing everyone else within the first minute for every single match. It would be broken as hell.
I -could- provide a nice list of powers to ban in order to stop this from happening. For example, stop WP/SS tanks from spamming Jab/Box with 3-4 procs and killing everything. In this case, you'd ban Boxing from the competition.
If you include set bonuses, you have a select few who know exactly how to PvP spec their build for fighting WP toons. The gap between the average player and the top player would be extremely high. This would look unfair to people, and really, it is.
If you exclude bonuses, then you see a few privileged individuals using 53 HOs and damage procs in their attacks. Dominating frankenslotted toons.
If you make it SO only, it's impossible to enforce them from frankenslotting because there's no way to tell.
So here are my problems with this idea.
If you enforce WP only, I can think of 2-3 combinations that could not be countered.
If you enforce no set bonuses, you have a huge gap between 53 HO users and expensive procs vs those who can't afford it.
If you enforce SO only, there's no way to know if someone is lying or not.
My biggest problem with this competition is that it wouldn't be a competition at all. I'm known for specializing in Melee Fight Club duels and have been for years, but these specific rules here just make my job a million times easier, and while I had to make my build have enough accuracy for SR/EA/Shield, or have enough recovery for end drainers, this means I can go full out regarding a lot of things.
It wouldn't be fair, at all.
Conclusion: I don't want to annouce what would break this competiton so that everyone can make them, but I'm willing to respond to a PM from Aumakua explaining it. -
Are you going to do arena or zone PvP? If you zone or arena PvP on teams then you can pick pistols as a primary attack and mainly focus on buffing or debuffing. If you are planning on doing 1 vs 1 then I think DP is not a good choice. I did not like my damage on my DP in PvP. IMO some of the things you need were mentioned above HP, Acc, Damage and KB protection. Another thing needed is an escape power in case you are the target for a spike or just running low on health and need a min to recover. The three types of escapes are Personal Force Field (Corr's do not get), Phase Shift or Hibernate. These are your "OH CRAP" button for when things get rough. I also like a self heal and click debuff. I really have trouble with toggle debuffs since they are easy to detoggle. I have been messing with the idea of making a Dark/Poison/Soul Corrupter. I will have a self heal, click debuffs, and power boost. You will not need all of the primary and secondary power so you will be able to squeeze in Phase Shift into the build and get leadership.

Hope this helps. I will try to give more info when I get home from work. -
Quote:I like this idea a lot. Will all matches be a 1v1? Can we create a Dojo SG/VG and have team support before our matches? Can we use IO's as long as we Frankenslot and do not get set bonuses? You can even do a Pay Preview. Where you can set it as No Observers and you can pay a fee and enter the match and watch from the outside of the ring and cheer on your fighter.Originally Posted by Aumakua
With the popularity of MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) I have been seeing a lot of MMA costumes around paragon city. It got me thinking of an RPvP fight club. My idea was if anyone wants to join and had an extra character slot, make a Willpower Scrapper, Tanker, Stalker or Brute. You will have to use a Natural Weapon, such as a Battle Axe, Broad Sword, Claws, Dual Blades, Katana, Staff Fighting, Street Justice, Super Strength, Martial Arts, Titan Weapons, and War Mace. This will be more than likely a mix between Fight Club, Blood Sport and MMA. The reason I picked willpower as the armor is I believe it will fit the RPvP theme. With training a fighter becomes tougher (Resist), faster (Defense), better stamina (Quick Recovery), and heals faster due to just being healthy (Fast Healing). We need to have a winner and a loser for every fight and I like the fact that this set does not have a heal except for Stalkers. For that reason Heal Decay and Diminishing Returns will be activated for the fights.
Rules:- No Travel Suppression - Characters will not have their travel speed decreased or ability to teleport disabled after they attack.
- No Travel Powers - Characters are limited in how fast they can run and how high they can jump. They cannot use Fly or Hover, or powers that mimic those effects. They cannot use Teleport, except for powers that Teleport your enemies. This rule does not affect the other effects of these powers (such as any defensive boosts), those will still activate when the power is toggled on.
- Cage Match Since this game does not have an octagon we will do all matches in the cage.
- No Inspirations Inspirations can prolong a fight and we will need a winner/loser
- No Set Bonuses Yes I said it No Set Bonuses. Before every match you will be check to see if you have set bonuses. It will be like using steroids and is not permitted. You will be allowed to use Regular Enhancements, Common IOs, Hydra Origin Enhancements, Crystal Titan Origin Enhancements, or Hamidon Origin Enhancements.
- No Temporary Powers - Disallows the use of any temporary powers players may have on their character.
- Rated Matches All matches will be rated and a person with a lower rating can challenge anyone that has a higher rating.
Weight Class Range in Experience Levels- Strawweight 1 5
- Flyweight 6 11
- Bantamweight 12 13
- Featherweight 14 21
- Lightweight 22 26
- Welterweight 27 31
- Middleweight 32 37
- Cruiserweight 38 40
- Heavyweight 41 46
- Super Heavyweight 47 50
If you feel comfortable in a weight class you do not have to leave that class, even if you exceed the level cap. Some professional fighters stay their whole career in one weight class. From Middleweight to Super Heavyweight when you are able to use any APP/PPP you wish. It will be like your training helped you tap into your chi and unlocked a super ability; however you still will not be able to have set bonuses. I like the idea of no set bonuses because you do not have to spend a lot of influence to make these characters and it will help everyone play on even ground and this can be fun for everyone.
What we need is an event coordinator (Supplies the list of fights and roster), fight promoter (Supplies Photo Shop posters), Referee and Ring announcer. We could even go as far as having ring girls that holds up the score card to represent the rounds. They will be no prizes other than the badges earned and fun. We can hold the events on Sundays and call it Super Brawl Sunday. If people like this we can discuss having money prizes for the fighters in the future.
Is this a good idea or should I scrap it?
I am going to make either a Staff/WP scrapper or a Dual Blade/WP brute. -
Did this idea ever take off? I just read it and I am interested.

I haven't really seen any SG/VG's like this but I mean if you really want to play like that, why not make one? I'm sure it would get interest.

Quote:I just forgot to add Body Mastery. I know Kheldian's and Widows are natural, but it just does not seem to be natural to have Psi abilities or shoot bolts of energy. If widows just stick to the claws attack then I dont see a proble with it.Originally Posted by BrandX
How does Body Mastery not ft into the natural theme.
Also it looks like you want Natural to equal human.
Also, aren't the Widows Natural? Why no Widows? Use the claw attacks, skip the mental ones, MindLink can be played off as Leadership style abilities.
Also, none of that will make leveling any more of a challenge.
Also, are you looking for a SG with such limits, or plan to create one?
Also, tend to find a lot of theme SGs don't always last long or go over well :/ -
Wow...no love for the humans...

I have had my share of playing super powered characters and saving the world over and over again, but now I want to play on a all natural team with the use of only natural or tech sets. I do not want to use any travel powers except ninja run or rocket board. I want to use the medicine power pool instead of a true healer. I want leveling to be a challenge and I want to earn it the hard way. If anyone knows of such a SG/VG please let me know.

Quote:I would love to see a bear as the tier 3 pet. There are to many wolves in that set.Originally Posted by Combat
Apparently beast mastery is a set that will be added sometime during the timeframe of I22 (before I23). It is in development. Summons wolves, lions, and a dire wolf (why not a bear?). Also summons hawk and locusts as attacks.
Discuss. -
I six slot it with one Apoc (53% Damage) and 5 Touch of the Nictus. I could use a HO Dam/Acc enhancement but it will only buff the damage 33% and I think the common IO only buffs around 40% Damage. I really like having the heal and I basically spam it with every attack chain. I have done it like this with my Dark/Dark Blaster, Defender, Dark/Sonic Corr, Necro/Storm Mastermind, and now to my Dark/Dark Dom. It may not be the best slotting, but I am just used to it

Is anyone gonna do the dark super team?

I posted this a long time ago and I still think it is a good idea.

Quote:That is true and I have done it a few of times, but the APP/PPP doesn't help when between the lvl 1-37.Originally Posted by Kyriani
Couldn't you just make a stalker and take an APP/PPP for ranged attacks?
I mean I know it's unorthodox to use an AT like a scrapper or stalker as a ranged attacker but it is mechanically possible. Especially with a high recharge build. -
Quote:Maybe a little more damage than defender :POriginally Posted by BrandX
You say you will, but you'll realize how lousy that damage is later. :/
-
I just want a character with Dominator assault powers (4 melee, 4 range, and 1 self buff) as a primary with stalker defensive secondary numbers, defender damage numbers and with a 1606hp cap. I will be happy with that.
-
After watching the TV Show Supernatural, I remembered that they used spells to summon Demons, Angel, Four Horsemen, etc... It just seems to fit that when dealing with God Like abilities Magic is the best choice for a origin.
-
I like the idea of a winter team of pure ice powers. Not sure about the earth as a winter power.
Can I make a SD/Ice/Ice tanker with Stone shield graphics? -
Can you use Titan Weapon with shield? If so I think that would go good as a theme if you use the stone graphics for the shield. You could be a gargoyle without a castle to guard and you use a piece of stone from your castle that was destroyed as a shield.
