  1. I think I finally finished tweaking the build in Mids.
    Final tally at 50, with all the ridiculous expensive purples included is 962%, 115.2hp per sec, before I turn on RttC. I'm not sure what the RttC totals will be until I get him to that level, im only 29 now. And who knows, it may be a decade or two before i get the inf to actually finish the build in game, lol. How do I post the build? I've only had mids for a short time so I still don't know how to post builds from mids to forum.

    Edit: I just found the slider in mids that lets me see totals with multiple enmies, with 10 foes in range 1418% regen, 169 hp per sec.
  2. Knowing that those are the only two +regen procs set my mind at ease, lol. I've been agonizing over this wpr build for a while in mids, only have it to 29 in game, but according to mids, if i can get my hands on those 2 uniques, i'll be at 962% regen, 115.2 hp per sec, before i turn on RttC at 50.

    Ahhh,
    I didnt think they wuld actually work in auto powers, are there any other of these +regen uniques?
  4. If I put the +regen proc from regenerative tissue and the +regen/Recovery from numinas into a toggle will that make the regen rate boosts constant or will it negate them?

    That would be an awesome graphical change for Rain of Arrows. I'd buy that booster pack, lol

  7. overpowered in some, underpowered in others. A tank whose only attacks are jump kick, flurry, and air superiority is probably gonna have a hard time soloing anything higher level than themselves. I just think it would be fun, maybe as a vet reward. I think the inherant weaknesses that come with overspecializing would keep it from being much more than novelty. A broadsword/Martial arts scrapper, if it gets hit it dies. Bots/Thugs would be fun, until something thats not been debuffed did an aoe that scragged all of your unbuffed weenies and left you there without even a tier one knockback to help you run. There would be a couple combos that I'm sure would turn into farm builds and such, but really, doesnt that happen every time they make any kind of changes? Devs make changes, brilliant scheming players find a way to throw the balance of something waaaay off, the devs fix it, such is life in the MMO worlds.
  8. I've always wanted to play a toon who had 2 primary powers, or 2 secondary powers at the expense of the other.

    Something like a Shield Defense/Fire Aura Tanker or Ice Control/Mind Control Troller, something extremely focused, more conceptual builds than anything. I've just always thought it would be fun.

    What do you think, what combo would you make?

Seems to me there's strong incentive for a single person (or a group if there's a low bids/person limit) to place bids across a wide range of prices to ensure that you get it and at a low price.
    It was Final Fantasy Online. It was an interesting system, but the economy was a bit more complex as well. You could only bid on a very limited# of items, 8? maybe at a time, it's been a while. You could only stack certain items like arrowheads so some things, particularly expensive things, you could only bid on or sell 1 per slot. And there was also a personal bazaarth where people who looked at your bio could buy items in your inventory if you put a price on them. Most people just kept 1 or 2 crazy expensive items on bazarre, as well as whatever they wanted to brag they had(they just set its price to 999,999,999 so no one in their right mind would buy it, and if they did you just got max gold)

    As for the bidding low on things, it happened, if you had an extra auction house slot you werent using it wasnt uncommon to bid 100 gold for a multimillion item in hopes of a typo by the seller. But the listing that told how m uch and what time the items sold for, also told who sold and who bought so if this did happen the two player could get in touch and work it out.

    It was fun, I wish CoX had a personal bazaar system.

    No, no, I wasnt being an jackass, lol. I was sincerely apologizing for my noobishness, lol, I've been on this game over a year and didnt know that, so yeah, im a *******, lol.
  11. do enhancement set bonuses affect the damage of procs?

    If I have a 2% damage boots from a set, will it increase the damage of the procs by 2% or is it a static unalterable aount?

    (Now, after you've wiped whatever fluid you shot out of your nose upon reading this I will explain, lol)
    I came to CoX after years playing a different MMO, one in which the auction house worked a little different. In that game there was more play in the bidding, if an item was selling for 5k you could bid less on it than that and still maybe get one. The sale went to the bidder who bid closest without going under to price the seller posted. in CoX terms, if I bid 1mil for a Numinas, I'm not likely to get it because most are selling for 50mil, but if someone who just didnt want to or couldnt pay the fee to post the item at 50mil and only posted it for 500k I'd get it with my 1 mill bid because i was closest to that 1 sale price. now, to change bidding strategies, sorry to have wasted the threads time, lol

    Actually I didnt know that. Ok, then nevermind the mention of server, lol.
  14. I've got my end/rech, those are dime a dozen.
    The rest are the ones buggin me. Maybe im just bidding at bad times.

    BINGO!
    I've got 2 different frankenslot tanks im working on, so really i need 24 recipes, but 1 toon at a time, lol. I've got a SS/WPR that will max out at 101hp/sec regen passive, and an Ice/Stone that'll end up somewhere around half that, but'll have the defense and mitigation of ice. I'm curious as to which one will work out to be more survivable, expensive as hell but fun.

    I'm getting them for the set bonuses, they're going in unimportant powers, so I'll take em at any Level. I'm on freedom and wentworths is just empty, and has been for a few days now. It sucks, but I kind of expected it, i'm just looking for a workaround.
  17. Ok,
    My current build needs 12 numina recipes, i dont need the crazy expensive regen+recovery one,(though it would be nice) but i need to get them. My biggest problem isnt cost but scarcity. Is there anywhere to get them other than drops and wentworths?

    I do this sort of thing all the time. On another server i have a different regen build thats not as good but I'll find a few nice huge mobs, herd as many as I can together, and set my AoE to auto and go make lunch, when I get back most or all are dead, lol.

    It's possible I'll be dropping quite a few on this thing. I've done some retweaking in mids and go it up to 101.7 hp per sec regen with no toggles active. But the cost is crazy, several numinas sets, some luck of the gambler, a steadfast protection, lots of fun expensive things. But thankfully I haven't found anything in the hundred millions that i have to get.
  20. the concept rolling around in my head is something like use fossilize to lock the target, then use that target as the center for most of my aoes, earthquake, quicksand, volcanics, and such and the like, then run in and beat on him while all his buddies flop around and choke and so on and so forth til the entire mob is dead. Just didnt know if it'd be viable or if I'd get 1 shotted a lot by the 1 that got away.
  21. I've never played a Dom.
    Just started looking over Dom and saw some things that intrigued me.
    I've had an idea for a Stone/Stone Primarily melee dominator, but I was wondering if a dominator is just too squishy for this no matter what? Can a dom be made to last when deep in a mob of angry freaks?

    Grav Troller?

    I'm interested in making a grav but i've read a few unpleasant things about the set.
    Is it a bad set to be relegated to thematic builds only or is it worthwhile as a solo troller?
  23. Ok,
    I mostly play tankers.
    I'm wanting to shift gears a bit and switch to something long range.
    I wanted some advice on which blaster I should choose. I don't want a blapper, i want to lay down fire from a safe distance.

    This is mostly an opinion question, I'm sure you all have different sets you prefer to others, I'm just wanting some ideas.

    Whatya got?
  24. Might be interesting especially if you built for haste. A few set bonuses and lightning reflexes might combine to make a nasty blurring beatstick.
  25. p.s. It's a true min/max, I'm going for regen at the expense of all else, lol. When I was doing this with my brute I got to 39 and found my biggest rpoblem to be eternal stalemates with EB's lol. Unless I was with a team I just couldnt pour enough damage on target to kill it, and I coul;dnt take enough damage to die, some EB's were unsoloable, lol.
