Me too, but every time I'm trying to make something and I run across the insanity of 20-50k commons, it grinds my gears. Strictly a personal vendetta.

In other news, I just hit the influence cap on my main money machine for the first time

I've been annoyed at the massive instability of common salvage lately. On top of that, players not wanting to mess with the market and just get some commons slotted up would be able to avoid the market and AE. On some pieces they'd spend more than on the market, less on others.


I'm not a wizz either. My line of thinking was that common drops would be replaced with uncommons and rares from sets, which would require a greater rejiggering of drop tables, etc... should have elaborated.

I'm 26 years old. That shouldn't make me laugh, but it does. Maybe it's because I'm tired.

Anyway, Stalkers most likely will not get super strength.

SS doesn't really suffer from those things you mentioned. Rage is perma with nothing but SO level slotting, so that's not a problem. With a farming build recharge is important, meaning players are likely to have Footstomp recharging in less than 10 seconds. That AoE knockdown so frequently provides tons of damage mitigation, and with Fury and Rage pumping your damage into the +400-500%, plus the extra damage from all those reds inpsirations you're getting, pure smashing damage is -nothing- to worry about.

Not sure why you want stealth on a Brute. It doesn't make sense. Are you figuring in suppression for when you enter combat? Also, do you plan on fighting with Hover on? Some people like it, some people can't stand it.

CJ is one of the best set mules in the game AND it gives you more defense. You're asking for a soft-capped, fully IO'd character, so I'm doing what makes it easiest to get there. You want an ultra-high performance character, but you complain when the powers taken to get you there are too "FOTM" and "ooh big numbers" Just trying to help, man! I didn't realize you wanted to keep flight. You can easliy swap CJ with hover if you want.

You're also complaining about tough and weave consuming extra slots but not realizing that I've taken slots out of other powers. You also haven't seemed to take into account that in a month or two the entire Fitness pool is going to be inherent, meaning you have 3 extra power picks to choose from.

Your builds are pretty confusing, actually. LBE, an attack, is slotted as a defense debuff? For the set mule, or what? 4 slots in health? 6 slotted hover? Slotting True Grit for res? Think about it. Why slot for resistance if you are trying to get soft-capped? You are almost never going to take damage. You're wasting slots all over the place and slotting powers incomprehensibly. I'm not trying to sound like a jerk, but your builds suck, and that's not just because you want to take the flight and stealth pools.


I PM'd it to you last night.




Actually, they aren't. Your builds are wasting slots all over the place, slotting things that don't make sense, and building towards things that won't matter. You say your build has greater resistance, but what if I turn on Tough? The build I made for you has better recharge, a better attack chain, better slotting, will survive just as long, if not longer, and will do more ST and AoE damage. You will not notice the difference between 44.5% and 45% defense. AND it has FIVE slots left over to slot into Health and Stamina, which will be inherent and slottable according to Castle via the Dev Digest.

Now if that's not your goal, then fine. If you wanted to take Energy Mastery and Flight, that's perfectly ok. I missed that point, hence they are missing from my build, but you're just flat out not realizing how poorly you've slotted and it's NOT because you refuse to take the "fotm" powers.


The build I posted gets better numbers in everything that matters, especially in power slotting. 44.5 M/R and 45% AoE. You will NOT notice the difference. Add in inherent fitness and my build gets better numbers in EVERYTHING.
