Alignment powers are not affected by global recharge. Seems like any "extra powers" that came out after i11.5 are not affected by recharge, yet another way of Castle saying "SCREW YOU! HA HA HA" to IO'd players.
It's also worth noting that Geas/FoN affects its own recharge (much like Hasten) and the recharge of every other accolade that can be affected by recharge -
I've seen the Flytrap refered to as "Chompy"

What kind of Defender was it? I've been interesting in trying Lusca with my Fire/Rad Corr.

Quote:Lusca (who is technically 9 GMs) "only" took me around 90mins on my defender, and that was without using any temps or insps. Most other GMs either take around 15mins or just can't be done at all.Originally Posted by StrykerX
Doh! Sorry, I meant to say soloing GMs can take hours. Granted, AVs can too on certain builds (like Tankers) but in general it's over in a few minutes.

Quote:Yeah, most competent AV soloers can do most AVs in 5mins, 10 for the tougher ones.Originally Posted by StrykerX
Is the Kronos Titan timed (been a long time since I fought one)? If so, I doubt any character can solo it without temps (soloing AVs generally takes a long time, up to several hours). If not, I'm sure an Ill/Rad can do it eventually.
The reason I doubt any Ill/Rad can take out the Kronos Titan is because of his high psi resistance (being a robot and all) and higher debuff resistances (being generally a level 50 GM) AND higher hp.
Has nothing to do with being tougher and everything to do with Lusca's head killing your henchmen AND traps.Quote:Originally Posted by StrykerX
As for a MM vs Lusca, that would be interesting. I admit I was thinking "all GMs on their respective side" but now that we can switch I suppose one of the really good Bots/Traps GM soloists should head over to Independence Port and see if they can serve up some calamari.
The only two ATs I've heard of soloing Lusca are an Ill/Rad and a Rad/Sonic, but since a Bots/Traps MM is generally tougher than a Rad/Sonic I'd think it's possible. Or at least it will be when / if the Bots AI is fixed so they don't ignore Goto commands and run into melee... -
Quote:I'm having trouble seeing a MM solo Lusca and an Ill/Rad solo the Kronos Titan.Originally Posted by StrykerX
but the ones I know of than that can solo all AVs and all GMs are:
Ill/Rad Controller
Bots/Traps MM -

electric manipulation secondary
so.. general verdict is go for a defensive build? lightens the load on my wallet significantly..
thanks everyone -
Quote:Which Blaster powerset has Lightning Clap?Originally Posted by Adeon Hawkwood
That would be nice, my AR/Dev would be a lot safer.
The problem there is that the kb is the primary mitigation in Lightning Clap. The Stun only has a 50% chance of working plus it's only mag 2 so it only stuns minions. -
Kat/Regen, BS/WP Scrapper

That build does indeed have quite a few glaring holes I'm not even going to bother to point out. If he's having fun with his build and the character works for him, that's all that matters anyways *shrug*

Sapper: Elec/Energy/Mu Dom
Mayhem: Grav/Storm Controller, though having stuff flying around in this game is usually counter productive and most often than not ends up producing less xp/hr and more pissed off teammates
Invincible toon: Elec/Dark or Dark/Dark Tanker with +def and +rech through IO's -
Better management of interruptions such as BU, Hasten, Conserve Power, click mez protection, etc.
When you use these powers that interrupt your DPS, you want to replace them for the lowest DPA attack (FS), and you also want to keep your highest DPA attack (Inc) in a permanent state of recharge, not wasting a fraction of a second of its recharge time. -
Hero: Goodie Two-Shoes, Protect the Innocent
Vigilante: Villain who goes after other bad guys
Rogue: Mercenary, Freelancer, usually focused on heroic deeds but for profit
Villain: Ambition, Power/Control, Destruction, Chaos, Anarchy -
SS/WP Brute

As always, I recomend the Cremate -> Fire Sword -> Incinerate attack chain. In that order, for benefits that may not seem obvious at first.

Quote:This doesn't actually sound half bad, but the numbers are way overinflated. I would think a -250% regen for 10 seconds (which is the debuff found on envenomed daggers, and AS recharges before that anyways) and [Pyre Mastery.Melt Armor] numbers for -res/-def. That'd be more reasonableOriginally Posted by DarkMaster

Apart from a single power in 4 of the 5 individual origin boosters (Self-Destruct, Ninja Leap, Mystic Fortune, Secondary Mutation), how were they any different from this new booster?

I personally enjoy the concept of being just as powerful as the signature characters. Standing toe-to-toe with the likes of Ms Liberty, Captain Mako and Requiem has a very epic feel to it. Unlike men, all of our toons are created equal, and it's up to the player to invest enough time and effort in his character to be as powerful as the most powerful NPC's. Same thing applies for GMs, except people usually don't believe you when you tell them that you soloed Lusca with your Defender using no temps and no insps
