no its not that definitly not that, ive had full mobs of baddies run off at 3/4 hp or even full hp

i would estimate that less than half the mob was under 50% hp

open up the combat attributes window and right click on whatever you want to display

to get the combat attributes window just type /toggle combatnumbers
or go the powers tab and click combat attributes

on my /fire scrapper, even with using blazing aura i still get the mob scatter you are talking about

i dont know if the issue is with the AI or if there is still a fear component left somewhere in burn

welcome to the game!

first of all this game doesnt really have a pure healing class, as defenders, corrs, trollers, and masterminds can all get a heal set

defenders and trollers can get empathy which has the powers you mentioned, and stuff like fortitude is usually used on the lead tank or brute, or on avg teams anyone really. as for the RAs (regen and recov auras), its usually best to use them before a fight or during a fight as they arent much help when not fighting

the alternate to empathy is used by corruptors and masterminds which is called pain domination which is very similar to empathy but meant more for villains, it has similar stuff to empathy in terms of heals, but its buff powers are world of pain and has a debuff, anguishing cry, and a toggle for +regen (or on a corr it does ticks of heal instead of +regen which is the mastermind version)

empathy and pain dom cant do everything though, and there are many many other team buffing sets that are just as helpful

first of all, the siege in that mish does NOT count towards dimensional warder

i think the knowledge of his heal being completely overpowered has been out there since GR launch, and most poeple just avoid it since it doesnt give badge credit anyway

this is a new model of seige too if you run the old arc then he will still be his old wimpy self

the auto demotions are for leader ranks only, and it can be set between 15 and 45 days for auto demotions

most of the threads i seen about this usually end up in the hoarding topic, but i agree that at least the storage size of the salvage containers need to be increased

each bin holding only like 30 salvage is just worthless, my lvl 30 toons can hold that much and once you get to 50 and get the increases to storage amount a lvl 50 can hold up to 80 salvage

i think the salvage base bins should be the same storage size as the other storage options (ie, hold 100 pieces)

the one combo i never really like was axe/fire

it was decent dmg but terrible surviveability and the constant redraw of the axe made it suck bad

from what i experienced EBs are quite easy for the most part and the few that are annoying/tougher are usually downgraded AVs

i havent personally solo'd any AVs, but i have duo'd AVs of many types and lvls (me and my friend have duo'd LRSF a few times and ITF) but thats about the extent

as for incarnate stuff changing things, i dont know yet, it depends on how much more powerful it does make it, if its just minor enhances then it wont be that exciting other than being stronger than the average joe

yes but only if you get the tips in paragon

and reaffirming vigilante alignment gives 60 merits instead of an A-merit

another alternate method to getting the heal badges is to use aid other on a vet buff pet, since healing powers seem amplified to about 4x normal and healing them at "full" still counts for credit (the reason credit is given at "full" is because they are like normal pets and have about 1070 hp at lvl 50 but a self applied power in their resistance does -maxhp which the game considers as dmg)

while it would be tedious to constantly be clicking aid self, you can get a little over 1000 heal pts credit per heal if you heal for more than 1100, so if you have high rech, low interrupt time and moderate heal enhance you could get it relatively fast

i dont mind resist sets on stalkers too much, however a few things that ive felt stalkers really suck at which makes me less likely to play them

since ive never really had issues with the hp cap and whatnot the biggest reason why i dont like stalkers is the extreme lack of AoE except in the case of elec melee and few other select sets

i just absolutely cannot play a MA stalker because there is not even a single AoE attack, i used to have an MA/ninjitsu stalker and i had problems running with teams higher than size of 3 due to the lack of AoE and the squishiness

things that would make me like playing a stalker a bit more:

• add more debuff component to AS (or change AS in some way as right now most of my stalkers hardly use it much or at all on teams cause its not useful)
• i do also agree with hide as an inherent power to give stalkers a little more secondary to pick from, the +def it adds is minimal but it helps on the resist based sets
• make sure ALL stalker offensive sets have at least 1 multi target attack (can be AoE, TAoE, cone, chain, whatever i dont care just 1 power that can hit more than 1 target)

honestly i did not even know the stalkers got bonus chance to crit with teammates near them because it is pretty much not noticeable at all, and i think its a good idea for teaming, but it would have to be of larger radius and give like 5-10% bonus crit instead of 3% (3%x7 team mates is only 21% bonus to crit, which is really rare to get in the first place) and as others have mentioned its still random chance and barely if at all noticeable

each toon already can unlock 4 additional costume slots having a total of 5

3 of them you can get through doing a very short mish arc for either facemakers or icon

the 4th slot is unlocked by simply turning in halloween costume salvage to the related NPC

im sure more costume slots would not hurt, but i doubt poeple would want to actually buy them, but if there was some arc to do to unlock them then it would be fine
