So what do people think if IH got a heal component?

It has already been said. Regen needed Recharge Debuff Resists (RDR hereafter), not regen resists. It is and always will be a *Burst recovery* specialist, not average dps (/SR being the burst mitigation specialist - just hard to controll the RNG).
IMO, give "instant healing" an *instant heal* (some up-front big heal then sustaind over its life), and add RDR while its up - make the healing unmoddifiable, but the RDR modified my recharge IO's to a max of ~50%. Add 12.5% RDR to reconstruct (subject to deminishing return per application), throw in your Winter's Gift for additional 20% and other sets (PVP) and work to keep a possible 100% RDR as a defining tertiary effect of the set. Or, completely differently, at least be able to work to make IH perma, but at a level considerably less than saturated RTTC.I really really like this idea. Is there anyway that we could work on a suggestion and present it to Synapse? I think adding a heal component to IH would go a long way to helping regeneration.Quote:Originally Posted by UberGuy
I saw this suggested some months back, and I thought it was a good idea then, and it's grown on me since. IH lives in a weird place. You need to know you're going to need it before you use it, because the combination of its activation time and the fact that it probably won't save you if your health gets too low before it kicks in means using it reactively is dangerous. If it had a decent heal on it, this could address a big chunk of that in a lot of (but not all) situations. I would be much more likely to use it as a reactive power, because it would be more likely to succeed when used that way. I think that would lead me to use it more often overall, rather than it suffering from a slightly less impressive version of "too awesome to use".
I don't need no stinking heals on my shielder.Quote:Originally Posted by Crysys
Sure its a huge boost....except when something hits through either one, my Regen powers take care of it. Layered defenses...some of it pure defense, most of it healing and resistance. On my /SD and /SR toons, once I'm hit, I need a heal. On my /Regen, if I get hit through my defenses, I just Recon and keep moving. Although with IH and Dull Pain, I seldom notice when I get hit....I'm just regenning whatever gets through.
I can't tell you the number of times I've been the last man standing, long past when my total defense brethren are faceplanted. Maybe its just how I play, maybe its how they play, maybe its just what I'm fighting, I don't know. All I know is I was away from the game for years and after reading around here, doing a total toon respec and spending the time to outfit myself with all IO's, this is my primary go-to guy now for just about anything. Not sure where all the hate comes from....I've got a BS/SD with capped DEF (past capped for Melee thanks to Parry) and a DM/SR also, both with full IO builds. They really have issues against Longbow and Arachnos at +4/x8 and while very good at iTrials, still get into situations where they just get turned into swiss cheese and I need external support for help. My BS/Regen guy....no sweat.

I saw the regeneration debuff % and
. Maybe we can convince Synapse that is too small?

If we're all VIPs then how am I supposed to feel special?

Today I've been playing CoH for 7 years
. Auction house command is awesome!

This should be like a Hurl Bolder type power, but you toss stuff like Propel. "How about a Coke machine to your face?"

What kind of vending machine do you need to dispense street justice?

Maybe they're thumbing their nose at what Regeneration should have been?????
-
Regeneration is a good middle of the pack secondary now. It can do some amazing things with a lot of INF spent but you have to be very good at playing a regenerator in order to not die. Alot
-
More resistance is always a good thing! Especially when 75% of the game uses some form of S/L damage.
-
The biggest question I have is where did you get the L53 HOs lol
-
So is this a recharge or defense intensive build or a combination of the two?

I was thinking of playing a DB/DA brute at first, but there were some heated arguments about DA and fury with Cloak of Fear. As I have a pretty well decked out Brute already, I thought, why not just skip it and go Scrapper for a change of pace anyway.
Where does Cloak of Fear fit into the order of things? I am not noticing it working in my 30's, or at least, I am disappointed in it.
Maybe I am not evaluating it properly. When I think of DA, I think about being def capped from IO/$$$, and using the set's resistance combined with Dark Regen to be tough to kill. I was expecting CoF to be further mitigation to just add gravy to this, but I can't really percieve its value.
I am only 33 on the scrapper, and don't have the IO sets going yet, so maybe it's just too early to call it, but I was curious how people perceive CoF's effectiveness.
Thanks. -

Ask in the scrapper forums down in Archetypes and Powers. You'll not only get a faster response, but the response will be coming from some of the most knowledgeable character builders in the game.

Fire/MM is the way to go. Fire isn't as resisted as Lethal is

If you get harassed about your gender, petition and gignore. It is as simple as that

But why is it the women that need to hide who they are to avoid problems?There is your answer, in the 7 years of playing and teaming gender has come up but 4 times.Quote:Originally Posted by rsclark
How is it "hiding" if it would never come up unless you made a special point of bringing it up. I've never "hidden" my gender in the game, but no one knows it.

Challenging means that I actually get close to dying for once.

Do we really know that? With stuff in the lore about how thousands of Rikti were killed in action doing this or that, I tend to believe that the mediporter is strictly a primal earth innovation. Maybe even strictly a Paragon City innovation; like the police drones. They're engineered from Rikti tech, but not directly copied from it.
