    0% Fury: 0% Damage Boost.

    50% Fury: 100% Damage Boost.

    100% Fury: 200% Damage Boost.

    Adjust accordingly.
  2. Forgot to mention I'm running Cardiac Radial. Plan to go Core Paragon for that sweet, sweet 45% end reduction.

    Don't forget Coal Burger and Heisten Fizz. And Paragon Pizza Pie. And City of Gyros (my favorite).

    While it does, it's also easier to maintain the Fury you already have.
  6. Plus, current Fury will build to about 80% in no time flat.

    I love Ninjitsu, but WP on SOs is probably more sturdy.
    I played one to 35 and just couldn't stand it. I vastly prefer my stealthy types to be defensive rather than resistive.
  8. The thread necro! It's so powerful!
  9. I assume the OP wants Alpha-slotted toons for both ease and coverage of all in-game TF's, should the first WST be Apex/Tin Mage. Better safe than sorry.
  10. Count in Nalrok Ath'Zim, Dark/Dark/Soul Brute. I can tank, I can smash, I can RP. Villainside, reaffirmed.
  11. So Hero MMO 3's forums boil down to Biggest MMO X's forums? Makes sense.

    This is the only game where I can ask a dumb, dumb, dumb question and get an actual answer. Not once have I ever heard "lol u fail nub" from any player ever.

    I love this place. I'm here 'til the servers shut off.

    Here you go then.



    Can someone explain to me two things, here (and I'll be very impressed if a redname clarifies this):

    1) How did this get past the Quality Control stage of the design process?
    2) What in the NPC skeleton would cause the "tent" so to speak?
  13. Mag 4 KB protection will negate most things in the game with knockback, with the exception of a few edge cases; that extra -KB IO is scrappable should you choose to do so.

It's not an Awesome attack, but with fury, it's not insignificant.

    If you were a tank, I'd say, sure, omit an attack in favor of a more 'defensive' choice, so to speak.

    As a brute, however, I have to insist that you slot it as an attack. Or I will take away your Brute license. Srsly.

    Ok, j/k.

    Not really. I'm coming over right now to get your Brute card.
    I'm a utility person, and that's why I suggested it. Currently, my DC can restore 75% of my endurance with just one enemy in range.

Or find another slot entirely to keep SL at 5 slots total and have Health increase from 2 to 3 slots?
    If you can find a new slot somehow, yes. If not, no worries, your build looks great as it is! Don't forget that some generic IO's can be dropped out of powers once you get the Alpha. Example: You could put a ToHit set back in Soul Drain if you slotted a Nerve Alpha.

    Yeah, I was on a kill-all LGTF (with a really nasty head cold) and got 4 pieces of it on my main Nalrok Ath'Zim. I did a mission later that night to affirm my Villain alignment and a fifth piece dropped off of my Far Future Self. Thanks, Far Future Nalrok!

    Well if it's in an auto power, it'll be on constantly. If you use it in a "use" power, every time that power is successfully executed it'll activate for 2 minutes. If you use it before 2 minutes is up, it refreshes. Honestly I'd put that thing in another Auto power if you can, and put a Heal IO in Siphon Life. You'll get more out of it

Amazement (and I'd have to scavenge for 2 other slots, but it would be worth it!).
    I got DAMN lucky with drops one day (5 pieces of AA in less than six hours, holy balls) and respecced to my current build right then and there. 55% recharge is AMAZING for anyone using a "Dark X" powerset.
  17. Vel, another suggestion (Unless you need the Oblits), try using Gloom instead of Soul Tentacles. Gloom's DPA rocks and with enough recharge you can greatly amp up your ST damage.

    Edit: Beat me to it! XD

    Do you see any other "issues" with the primary, since you've got such good familiarity with DM/ ?
    Looking pretty good. The only thing I can see is that Soul Drain has absolutely no accuracy slotted in it. Are you getting a good chunk of Accuracy bonuses from your sets? I'm unable to access Mid's right now, but if I were to change anything I'd try to put an extra slot into Soul Drain and dump in an Acc IO.

    Specifically, you can probably take the extra slot out of Hover and put it in Soul Drain for that very purpose. 4 points of -KB are enough to stop almost everything in the game with the exception of some edge cases, so you can keep the LOTG and drop the Karma.

    Funny enough (and lucky for you) I have a 50 Fire/Fire Brute as well, so I'm pretty familiar with Fiery Aura as well as your primary. It all looks pretty good, I must say. Might I suggest removing the Stun IO's from RotP and frankenslotting two Damage/Recharge IO's from PBAoE sets? Why stun when you can kill?
  20. I myself wouldn't put Obliteration into Dark Consumption; you don't need that to be an attack. I'd put in a set of Efficacy Adaptor.
  21. "Listen, Serge, we're sorry. Really, we are. We haven't been trying to kill you since 2007. Seriously, please stop sending heroes to beat us up. We're sick of level 30's who forgot to do their costume slot rushing out and pounding us to dirt. Chang here is on his fifth replacement hipbone, and the man's only thirty! Won Chou needs facial reconstruction and Tsun is blind now! He doesn't even see them coming! For god's sake man, just give them the costume slot!"

    Nevermind!
  23. KM is not slow, and Willpower is a pain on a Stalker. No defense coupled with low HP means more dying, heals or not. You also lack Rise to the Challenge, the staple of Willpower. Go KM/Nin. You won't be disappointed.

    Also Caltrops is amazing.

    Before they add Children to the game they need to fix the guy in Grandville with the huge erection. I'm not even kidding, I'll post a screenshot on my first break.

    Sure doesn't feel that way. I avoid those people for this reason (and this was an actual experience in St. Martial):

    Me: So be it, then. *rushes forward and throws a right hook*
    WoD RPer: ((Wait wait wait, you can't do that, you have to play by WoD rules.))
    Me: ((... this is freeform RP.))
    WoD RPer: ((But I am using a WoD character. We have to abide by WoD guidelines.))
    Me: ((... no, @#$% this, I'm taking my RP elsewhere. Have fun with your -rules.-))
