    I can't think of demon names for my Demons so gonna have to go with something else and they do remind me of cows so I thought maybe:

    Betsy
    Daisy
    Milly
    Hunny Bell
    Clarabelle
    Buttercup

    Anyone can softcap to something, it's softcapping to something and having a toon that does everything else good too thats the objective. So you would say not neglect getting key powers properly buffed from slotting like you would with SOs and softcap def.

    Darkest Night ok for the -dam, if ya can afford the toggle, rest is just concept - I wouldn't touch any of it with a barge pole.

    Oh no my bad. If you don't use the link but instead copy and paste the text Foc Acc in its description says "This power has been placed in a way that is not possible ingame...

    but then it says:

    You can not take this power because your a Tanker.

    I didn't read that bit. I was at work so not thinking thoroughly about this or work I got a bit bored with the repetitive parts of the designs I do and so had a quick post.

    From copy and paste in (I didn't use the link as it leaves traces of the builds in another folder) it's buggy but I'll look again now I am at home.


    Edit: right looked at build and shaved off some 3% runspeed for some extra survivability, more +hp over time from earths embrace so more regen, more regen from a heal in rooted, more def. 3% being a small boost and 1 mph difference not being noticeable its abit like working back over what can be lived without.

    I could as a Mind Controller control perhaps maybe 66 npcs at once at a rough guess. Out of them 17 will want me dead afterwards and the entire rest would ignore me unless one of those 17 died. That's what I thought ya was kind of referring to.

    You don't have as much def, res or regen that's obtainable, whilst not a huge hole as you could still tank, it's something I wouldn't swap in favour of run speed. You will with rooted on be running at the speed of someone that has unslotted swift and sprint on which is pretty cool though.

    Your build can't happen as Focused Accuracy is placed in a way that you can't ingame. I would suggest something else anyway as its an end hog you shouldn't require to do your job as you have mudpots and taunt.

    You do Support Guides for Cold, Kinetics, Thermal, Pain, Rad, Sonic, TA, Storm, Traps and Fortunatas.


     I play all of them. I read your guides and agreed with what ya done which is sad cos I like came to troll



    Do you have a 50 Empath?
  8. New Dawn
    I wouldn't change too much, update this if new powersets come into play but should you wish to get into more detail then perhaps do it with another guide as this is actually looking like a good clear concise help for anyone taking an interest. As far as introductions go it's solid.
  9. New Dawn
    I think my first off the top thoughts on a build for a team emp start like this:

    1) rechg is king
    2) power boost is the best epic powah
    3) aoes do more dam/end to groups than STs
    4) long cast times get in way of the ability to react.

Oh, and stamina.
    I used to know a healer like that. They regarded themselves as the best on the server and one of the pros obviously. To each our own.
  11. New Dawn
    Empathy should be a set which is easy to play well. I could go from one team with one dynamic that requires an empath to buff and pretty much heal one person; now and then. There is no time spent travelling from one person to another and so plenty of time to blast for something to do..to another team of people with a completely unrecognised sense of play due to the fact they might get healz.
  12. New Dawn
    Cut costs by looking at what you really need. I mean a chance for placate in blind? 2 Fortunata Hypnosis for 0,07 ers? My other alts would benefit more from any unnecessary expense if it were my toon.
  13. New Dawn
    I like the set on paper. It can affect mobs out of line of sight if lucky. The sleep is particularly useful.

    An unshameful truth if you're aren't generalizing all teams. People come from other games with how other games worked and then you can have people who for them, this is their first game, believing those from other games. I played for about a year before I woke up to a lot of crap, believe me there was plenty and needed to get out of that mindset. I seen posts where controllers and defenders said tankers are useless but worked it out, tankers are about as useless to them as they are to a tank.
  18. New Dawn
    I prolly best take out what I got stored/listed unless it's cheap. Stuff like Respec Recipes are being pulled tonight whilst I remember cos tomorrow is another day full of expected complacency and memory loss.
  19. New Dawn
    I'll go on test later, take an alpha as a Brute, then see where I am with 5 secs of fury generation.
  20. New Dawn
    Isn't there a depreciation change of some sort? Is there a curve to that? I not been following Brute changes plus at work so can't spare oodles of time sifting.
  21. New Dawn
    Take a defender then forget it has a primary.
  22. New Dawn
    The effect per end of DA is relative to the AT. Running all toggles at once all of the time through choice rather than need will impact recovery.
  23. New Dawn
    I'm happy with Bruise as it is doing the effect of what gauntlets will, knuckle dusters etc and give npcs a bit more of a realistic reason for being annoyed and attacking the Tanker.

    As for the Tanker being the worst AT, the extra HP will help to ensure Tankers stand out better at their task than a Brute does. One thing holding Brutes in general from taking over a Tankers role is the many players and their Scrapper playstyle/Tanking flexibility. Brutes on average shouldn't be as reliable. Brutes shouldn't need to maintain initial aggro (alpha) to maintain fury.

    Modify Propel...

    POST-ACTION

    We all see different graphics when propel is used I think. It would be nice if we could all see the same due to the power randomly selecting items. Then depending on the item ie forktruck or lampshade you could either get an aoe or an st attack. The Forktruck AoE and Lampshade ST but the level of damage the same. I just think it would of been cooler hitting 2 or 3 with a car rather than somehow missing all others.
