Quote:when it does this, ive noticed that its usually the fault of a power thats hovering right where you double click on enhancement tab and sometimes prolly accidentally triple click and the 3rd click usually hits something like restOriginally Posted by macskull
I'm more annoyed when I double-click the enhancement button and it takes me right into a combination interface, despite the fact that I don't have anything to combine. -
im prolly the opposite lol
im one who is in favor of being able to kill civies in mayhem mishs -

No love for the Romans? I have a Broadsword/Shield Defense Scrapper for which I made a Praefectus Castrorum costume that's almost 100% spot-on. It confuses people on ITFs all the time.

Quote:the only way to unlock patron powers is to run a patron arc, thus heros HAVE to become full villains in order to unlock patron powersOriginally Posted by mr_elotes
Dont want to assume anything but it seems that one of the reasons you are doing this is to get the villain patron powers for your blaster...I think all you have to do is respec your character and it should already be available with no need to switch...but if not, sorry for making an assumption.
one you unlock the patron powers for that toon they will remain permanently unlocked for said toon even if you switch back to hero and respec
villains on the other hand are automatically granted access to APPs at 41 without having to side switch -

Quote:it currently still doesnt work, however, there is currently 1 way to get the other side spec badgesOriginally Posted by Shadow State
It was tested in Beta and doesn't work, the limit is built into the character not the trial, that's why you can get all 3 respecs from the same level of the trial if you wanted. Annoyed a lot of Badgers since it also means we can't have all 6 respec badges.
if you have not used the respec from the trial from 1 side and you switch sides and do a respec it will award you badges beginning with the lowest trial and going up, however the ONLY way to get these is if your respec badge from the one side still says "talk to so-and-so to claim this respec", if it says you used the respec your SOL on that badge
i tested this on live with my main, and he has 5 of the 6 respec badges cause he didnt use the 2nd and 3rd respecs he earned in the trials, so im still missing the first hero respec badge until they fix it -
Quote:ah thx for clarifying that, what i heard was what just passed along from another threadOriginally Posted by Forbin_Project
Actually they didn't say that we were lucky. The actual phrase was that that they were being generous when they decided to let us pull 10 enhancements off of a build.
To MaestroMavius:
The position the devs have taken has nothing to do with game balance, It's simply that respecs aren't intended to be used to strip characters of enhancements. Re4specs are designed to let players tweak their builds and correct poor slotting/power choices they feel they made.
However as the game evolved and they added things like multiple builds they acknowledged that people may need more respecs to make those corrections so they added more ways to get respecs. As it now stands there are more respecs available in the game than anyone ever needs for any one character.
To the OP:
The game has plenty of ways to get more than enough respecs to strip any character of it's enhancements.
Trial Respecs - 3 allowed per character
Vetspecs - 5 allowed per character
Patron Respecs - 1 allowed per character also available to heroes that switch sides and run the patron arcs
SOA Respecs - 1 onlly available to VEATs
Purchased Respecs - Unlimited but they don't stack
Freespecs - Unlimited but they don't stack
Respec Recipes - Unlimited but they don't stack
Holiday Respecs - Unlimited but they don't stack
If you aren't willing to aquire the respecs that have already been made available to you the suck it up and deal with it.
To everyone in general:
Out of curiosity has anyone tried doing all the respec trials on one faction then switching sides and doing the respec trials of the other faction to see if they would be awarded that factions trial respecs?
If that works that would open up 3 more trial respecs for players. -
yes it is true that your entire team has to deal at least 10% of the dmg
i know on some of the ship raids some teams like to jump the gun and 2 teams can take out the GM almost before the other teams even notice
best thing to do is monitor your chat and as soon as someone says the GM is up prepare to target it until its dead -
Quote:yes this was changed with GROriginally Posted by FalloutGirl
I noticed lad night that my Stealth IO in Hover does not seem to be lasting the 2 min after I switch Hover off. Has that changed recently or am I merely unobservant?
all IOs which have a 120 sec effect when placed in toggles will run continuously while the toggle is on, but will turn off when the toggle turns off
if placed in click powers it will last the normal 120 sec after the power is used -
seeing as nobody actually read the i19 overview:

this type of thing is already applied to tfs, flashbacks, and AE
for regular teams i cant say if it would annoy me or not, but if there was an option to not ask for regular teams then it would be fine -
i been using the alignment merits i been getting for directly buying LOTGs for the tons of toons i have which will need them lol
if purps were cheaper say only 10-15 alignment merits i would prolly save them up more -
i think castle even stated somewhere that we were lucky to even get 10 slots to be able to strip enhances to
so yeah, this isnt prolly ever happening -
statesmans base resistance gives him a good bit to most dmg types
when he hits unstoppable, it adds around another 52% resist on top of what he has (except psi)
most of his resists will be 90% or above except to psi which will stay at his base stat of 20% psi resist
doing -resist will help a lot if you have anything that can do psi dmg, and doing -regen will help a lot as well, same with -rech
one reason he will go up to full hp real fast as well is because he likes to hit dull pain, which heals him by about 12k hp, and then increases his max hp by the same amount, and the higher max hp will make him regen more hp per tick since regen is based on a % of max hp
another note to add is his unstoppable is on a 5 min rech and has a duration of 1 min 40 sec, so you only have about a 2 min 20 sec window to actually hurt and/or kill him before he pops another unstop -
Quote:fun fact for silos sf: all of the heros are AVs except for infernal and malaise as they are only boss rank signaturesOriginally Posted by Noxilicious
Another Silos TF-related fun fact: Citadel is the only hostage you rescue who's an EB. The rest, including Statesman, are either pet or boss rank, I cannot quite remember.
GW is also only a boss class signature and scorp is only a pet class signature (both of them are allies and usually die within a few fights because they are insanely weak vs the mass amounts of AVs you fight) -
Quote:domination does not affect pseudo petsOriginally Posted by FatElvis
How does domination affect psuedopets, then? I was curious if domination affected the whole Synaptic Overload chain or just the first target. Also, how does domination affect procs such as the Confusion proc?
Thanks for any clarification on these issues.
examples of this come to mind with volcanic gases, the sleep patch in elec control (dont recall name atm), and synaptic overload after the first hit, none of these powers receive a domination boost aside from the first hit on synaptic overload because you have to initiate the chain -
something that would prolly be easier to implement is in another version of earth where recluse killed statesmant sort of how cole killed stephan in praetoria
now thats a world i want to see, where "evil triumphs over good because good is dumb" lol (whoever gets the quote gets 5 internetz lol) -
it will always say 0 defeats if you dont choose to set a defeats challenge
and btw congratz -
Quote:hasten is not necessary to get perma dom, but it does however allow you to make a cheaper build for perma domOriginally Posted by Jade_Dragon
Domination takes a very long time to build, you might build it as few as two or three times during a short mission. It's not like Fury which goes up and down constantly.
Perma-domination essentially cuts out the time needed to build it back up again, allowing you to just go on the first time you build it when you enter the mission and then keep it up until you complete it. It does take a lot of recharge, Hasten is really necessary, and from there you need IO Sets that give recharge. AFAIK, it is not really possible to achieve perma-dom until your 30s, and it only really comes into its own (with double or triple Dom) at 50 with purple Sets.
the final build i have planned for my earth/fire/fire dom will have 140% global rech without hasten and you only need about 123% global rech for perma dom (with 140% global rech ill actually be able to get perma hasten since i dont plan on dropping hasten, with hasten my build will be at 210% rech)
if you want to see my pre-i19 build for perma dom (which will stand at 117.5% rech with no hasten) i can get the mids info to post or can PM me
and as another part to that, the villain alignment power frenzy [temporary powers.frenzy] will fill domination bar to 100% when used giving you a quick star domination -
ill prolly only respec a few guys because the current respec system is too bulky to mass respec toons
my dark/stone brute im not gonna bother respecing because i like his build as it currently stands and getting inherent fitness over 3 powers that would be nothing more than LOTG mules wouldnt benefit him much
i will be speccing my earth/fire/fire dom, i am very happy with the change for him because adding another 22.5% rech will put his final build at 140% global rech with no hasten for the awesomeness of permadom without hasten
most of my other toons arent even to the "building stage" so i will still be eventually giving them a respec anyway when i get around to working on them -
from what ive heard CIT has been behind on a lot of things lately due to the loss of several staff members
i stopped tracking on CIT when GR came out because it took them almost a month after to even get all the badges updated
best thing to do right now is to just give them time to catch up -
since the power has both enemy and self for target, my best guess would be that the performance shifter proc would affect both the targets and self since both target and self have an end mod component

Quote:rularuu weapons can be gotten redside, there are about 4-5 mish arcs you could do with them or you could farm one of the mishs for the overseersOriginally Posted by Reiyichi
I would like to see those side specific weapon customization options be available to both sides too, the Red cap daggers however I believe you could get as a villain if you did enough save the baby new year missions and killed all the redcaps in the mission each time. But the Rularuu weapons I wanted to see redside just because they look evil and would fit on many players concepts of their toons. I am afraid this is a mute point for the side specific costume options and the badges that unlock them now as toons can just switch sides to pick up the badges they need and then switch back or w/e.
