ive not gotten that one but chrome does keep on telling me that the connection was closed without the server responding type of thing
had to reload the page like 6 times to get to the login
edit: right as i submitted this post it did it again
No data received
Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data.
Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.
is what it gives me when page fails to load -
with tips the cooldown is how long you have tips filling up one of those circles (20 hours once you finish the tip)
as for the token i have no idea, i dont think there should since its a pay for item (way too expensive for my tastes), but it could be an oversight or something they forgot to tell us -

I tested it in a mob of Arachnos on Grandville and it didn't break hide, so that must have been a bug back in your day. My stalker is SR and has some Kinetic Combats slotted; Shadow Meld was pushing some of his defense values into the 50% range and beyond - very definitely useful! -
premium accounts can use IOs for free if they are tier 7 reward level or higher
if they are less they have to get the lisence which is only $2 a month -
im assuming springfield, virginia, since theres also a springfield, PA, but i know most of you guys are in the VA area
i might be able to do that, if its on a weekend i might not be able to do the 1:30 since thats avg time i get out of work, but i could be there by around 3, looking at directions on google maps it would take me approx 1 hour drive time -
the only thing i want is the VIP/destined one badge, but theres no way in heck that im paying $100 for a copy of it on amazon, i may be a badger, but im not stupid enough to waste my money like that
i would gladly pay paragon points for it even if it cost like $15+ in points -
Quote:i believe the proc will only activate if it hits a target, and in aoe powers it will only proc once per activation not per target hitOriginally Posted by Dr Harmony
Has anyone tried the ATO proc in Whirling Hands? It seems pretty ideal in terms of recharge, and not needing a target to activate.
If so, does it work if you don't have any targets in range, and just trigger the power before combat? -
Quote:maybe its been fixed, but i know when i did use it, if i was in the middle of a mob and used it, the entire mob would turn and attack me and i noticed my "hidden" getting dropped when the power finishes activatingOriginally Posted by Clave_Dark_5
You sure about that? I have it on a stalker, that I admit I don't play much, but I recall my start-up attack chain being Shadow Meld+BU+AS, and I don't recall ever having been "caught" before. The stalker doesn't have an extra invisibility proc or anything like that either.
I'd have to go home and take another look to be sure, but...
i eventually stopped using it cause it was annoying that i couldnt use it BEFORE aggroing a mob. i would hit the power and rush in and everything would aggro on me.
as i said, i do not know if it was bugged at the time and has since been fixed since i last tried using it -
well, i am extremely doubtful it will ever get musculature to enhance it because it does not take dmg enhances, thats how alpha was designed to affect powers which took said enhances
i do not believe the servant not using the rech intensive pet sets is a bug, but i do not know the official reasoning behind it -
Quote:it doesnt really have attacks though lol, unless you count its extremely weak and pathetic tenebrous tentacles an attack or the DoT on its auraOriginally Posted by ChaosExMachina
Yes, that is what I am trying to say. Perhaps whoever set up its slotting rules long ago simply did not know it has attacks.
the base dmg of the tenebrous tentacles is only like 24 dmg, even with enhancement that will not do much, the DoT aura only does like ticks of 7 dmg
even if i could enhance the dmg of those i really wouldnt want to, the dark servant is more meant for debuff and is excellent at doing just that, especially with -tohit -
i think that is because the dark servant does not accept dmg enhancements as to why musculature is not applying to it
i am not sure about stuff like rech intensive pet sets though -
Quote:i dont think i did too much with it, after looking at my build i think i only have like 9.8% def to psi (its sort of covered by the melee/ranged/aoe defense types which are in the 22-25% def rangeOriginally Posted by Smiling_Joe
If I may pick your brain - and since it's related somewhat to the OP in terms of what he may be missing as the set's weakness - how did you address the set's weakness to psionic damage? I"m planning on around 70% recharge in my build before hasten in order to bring Energize up more often, but should I also invest in some Psi defense/resist IO's?
the psi is the only weakness since most of his other defenses will be in the 41-53% range without energy drain, i figure if i really need to avoid it ill just pop a few lucks to cover me while i handle it cause *most* of the enemies in the game dont touch on psi too much except within a few enemy groups -
i have an elec energy stalker at 50 and heres my take on it
1. disrupt is a good power, but the graphics for the power are just abyssmal, do not use if you are prone to seizures
2. yes overload does prove very useful when i need to use it, most of the time i dont need it all too often
3. oh i can almost guarentee you will need energy drain. aside from it doing +def to help against def debuffs and end recovery, it also does hefty amounts of -end on the baddies. my elec/energy stalker can easily drain an entire mob dry of end with the -end from elec attacks + the massive -end of energy drain. i can also tell you from experience without energy drain i would have massive end issues even if i had energize up all the time -
i do not believe so, just some of their looks got updated
powers-wise none of them got updated outside of incarnate trials
i personally just dont bother running with EBs anymore cause EBs in general just feel too weak, rather have AVs for some remote challenge lol -
if any of you guys want to add me as friend in game just send me a global tell first so i can make room on friends list (its been full for near 3 years i just make room as needed)
my global is @Necrotech Master for in game contact -

An alignment change merit? Seriously? Like it's that hard and unrewarding to do it the 'long, hard way.' Maybe we can buy a merit to buy purples or incarnate abilities next.
instead of taking 4 days to rerun tip mishs you prolly done 100 times you can instantly change alignment regardless of which side your currently on
edit: the only thing i notice is that the alignment token works regardless if you have the GR alignment system, although it does seem kinda pricey at 800 pts -
from what i know all of the DoTs should do approx the same amount of dmg, reactive will always do slightly more because it is paired with -resist
as Mr Morbid states, it usually is better to pick something that isnt the same as your main dmg, like for example if you picked cognitive interface the psi dmg will be able to bypass most defenses such as enemies unstoppable -
Quote:this is one of the reasons i hate the power, its a very long activation as well as dropping hidden statusOriginally Posted by DarkSideLeague
Worth noting that 3 of those 15 seconds are spent activating the power - meaning that you only have 12 seconds left after activation.

Quote:i believe its actually opposite of this, the debuffs only stack 4x and the DoT stacks up to 8xOriginally Posted by Rajani Isa
For most, it seems to be the damage dots stack 4, the debuffs 8, IIRC.

which server are you on? depending on server i could help, i play primarily redside but only on victory

Quote:you are right, since drops in this game are calculated individually in this gameOriginally Posted by Darth_Khasei
What difference would it make with the drops he actually gets when using windfall solo or team? I though the windfall only affected the person using it and not the team? Not following what is being said about that power regardless of setting as I thought it only affected the person individually.

Quote:/this, i use one whenever im about to do a farm run with my stone brute or if a friend is PLing meOriginally Posted by DreadShinobi
Pro-tip: use windfalls when solo and set map for x8
that said im still a little unimpressed with the payout on it (iirc if i recall the buff to drops was only like 10% or 25%) -

A "mule" is a power that you don't actually use, just take to slot sets for their bonuses. Kinetic Combats go great in Boxing or Kick since it's a mid-level set that gives a nice amount of defense, but doesn't have amazing enhancement values for a level 50 character. That, and both of them aren't stellar powers to begin with.i know, but most of the time i dont have extra slots to spare, most mule powers that i pick have <2 slots mostly to hold stuff like LOTGs or the steadfast +def, ect, i hate dedicating so many slots to a mule powerQuote:Originally Posted by DreadShinobi
Yeah, not to use. They're just great for holding set bonuses. Infact they're even better for ranged toons since it allows them to slot melee sets whereas they normally wouldn't be able to. Same goes for Brawl.
on the one toon i have fighting pool on (ss/wp brute) i actually use boxing as part of the attack chain which is why i actually got the fighting pool lol -
Quote:on ranged toons its wasted, and on melee toons i have much better powers to pick usuallyOriginally Posted by DreadShinobi
Boxing is rarely a wasted power pick. Mule that baby up with 4 Kin Combats or 5 Absolute Amazements, or heck I've even used it for Mako's 3% dmg on a pvp stalker once.
personally ive never liked any of the pool attacks, they are just crazy weak and inefficient that i dislike them enough to avoid them greatly
if im making a build for someone though i almost always throw it in though cause i know they either like it or want to have it
