I had the same experience with Crowd Control from Warmace on my SD/WM Tanker. I always thought it was lag. Have to test it further. I did not pay attention if it did damage, but it certainly did not knock them down.

Just out of curiosity, why is Rad/Sonic better than Dark/Sonic for AVs or general killing?

Did you have a look at Local Man' Ill/Rad Guide? It's on the first page and will really answer most of your questions, regarding slotting and IOs.

Superior Invis, is as the name says superior. It won't supress and you will notice that when attacking with Phantom Army. You will rarely get aggro, because you will be hidden all the time. Doesn't matter what you do.

LotG will alway increase your global recharge, regardless in which power you slot it.

<QR> If they ran away to get/summon reinforcements that would be fine with me. That makes sense. running away right away is just a bad tactical decision. If they ran away to warn others (buff to perception/aggro range) that would be cool to. would give reason to haveing crowd control, you don't want anyone in this group to escape less they sound the alarm.

Heh actually the first time I played CoH when it was released I thought they will run and aggro other mobs and I had no way to stop them and paniced that I will cause "a train". I was so used to it from playing Everquest I guess.

Great guide, I have a question though: Since ED which hit Defender dmg hard, I am not sure if certain controllers don't do more damage than a Defender in the later game with containment.

I can solo faster on my 43 Ice/Rad Controller than I can on my 50 Dark/Dark Defender.

Prior to ED you would say: If you like to do damage and blast play a Defender.... not sure if this is still the case though.

Actually, the axe is useful for ATs that are usually perfectly fine without an additional melee attack.

The reason why one would take the axe is if their attacks are heavy on damage types heavily resisted by enemies that take special damage from the axe. I know for a fact that running Bp missions (especially in Striga) solo with a Dark blast defender is a long and painful process. I believe that BP zombies, as well as croatoa and CoT ghosts are resistant against both Dark and smashing damage, making Sands significantly less effective against them.

That is excactly the reason I took the Axe on my Dark Melee Scrapper.

If you don't get XP for killing it, it won't drop recipes.

And what about salvage?

Thanks for your answer. I will only go with the default slot in Sprint, Hurdle and Swift, but was wondering if either Run oder Jump Enhancements will work better.

2) The Hydra in Perez used to be farmed for xp. 8 man teams would be constantly hydra hunting in the lake.

And Hydra exp was nerfed, but not because of the players hunting them in PP, but because they were farmed in the abandoned sewers and in the portal missions.

I want to skip the Travel Power with my /Kin Controller and going with

Sprint
Hurdle
Swift
Siphon Speed
Innertial Reduction

What is the best way to slot Sprint, Hurdle and Swift to be the fastest? All Jump Enhancements? Or better Run?

Thanks

Can you negate the regen rate if you cast Lingering Radiation?

Thanks Devs, you are doing a great job. And I love how you handle things. Best community of all MMORPG I played.
