What's NOT to like?

Basicly the things that you mention there can also be things people dont like. Its not 'supreme' in anything, its avarage in blasting, tanking, scrapping etc. Thats a thing that some just dont like, adding the fact that toggles dont go along into dwarf/nova is pretty annoying.

I like my PB, still lowish lvl but enjoying it for the time being. Human form with huge lack of endurance, nova is more squishy then a blaster. If i still like at higher lvl.. i dont know.

9 bars 9 bars 9 bars 9 bars!!!

realy cant wait

must say i love my robo/poison MM, robo is just insane damage and from poison you get a nice single-target heal, clear mez, debuffs, single target hold, cone slow (which is a great combo with assault bot's incendiary rockets) and if you team alot you can even get a decent rez. Till now I have been able to solo every AV i met (before the AV->EB change) so cant say im complaining

Is that damage output based on after lvl32? i'm at 31 now, i cant realy say my pets are doing "huge" damage output even after my /poison -res/-def debuff.

FF and/or Dark will be the first to be nerfed

so far i know, its scaled based. At start it doesnt take that much, but after 30 seconds or so it becomes more and more. Untill the moment you have like 4-5 end/sec and even 3slotted i dont think you will survive

MM are top of my nerf betlist for issue 7 (followed by granite armour and regen scrappers). Robots are top of the top too

[/ QUOTE ]
1-MMs are very fragile even with their pets, so nerfing them would make them practically unplayable.
2-despite the fact that granite armor gives great defense and resistance, it also has bad side, you are very slowed and your recharge dies.
3-/regeneration scrappers were being nerfed many times so far, if their regeneration powers will become even more useless, the set will stop be regeneration, and will become only something that slightly boosts your healing rate.

I second that, Granites are together with MM's kinda at the bottom of the PvP foodchain. Get any storm/ice/rad debuff on your butty and you will never see your powerbuttons grow bigger anymore.

Though i havent pvp'ed yet with my bots, seeing my squishiness (come one, they skip your pets and straight go for u) i dont even want. Though a nerf on the forcefield side wouldnt be that bad, specialy with the upcomming new def-system. (robots on buff 10% def with double bubble / 3SO slotted afaik)

I took the force epic for my ice/nrg, not only it suits more but you already have 2 hold on the ice/ and 1 hold on the /nrg (total focus) regarding static-discharge. Sure elec-armor has more resist base (nrg), but once you start FoN, TI and a breakfree you become a pretty-close tanker :P Hit PFF and you're close to immume all

i respected my MM yesterday (robot/poison) into a build with stamina. Having leadership running, shooting debuffs nonstop and have to heal nonstop (with hasten/1 recharge its up in no time) i was loosing endurance big time.

Did a bunch missions, feels way better

by any chance, can the alt-SG be linked to a few more fellow-SG's? I'm playing my PB quite often too, but sometimes quite lonely, even after a /b yell.

Is there any place i can read up more info about that new Defence stuff in I7?

(ya sorry, been out since ED)

With ice as primairy it would be way easier, double hold is great control.
Nice would be:
hotfeet->snowstorm->blizzard (tripple slowed)


[/ QUOTE ]Snowstorm is controller/defender power, the blaster primary rain power is ice storm.

/me stand corrected

With ice as primairy it would be way easier, double hold is great control.
Nice would be:
hotfeet->snowstorm->blizzard (tripple slowed)
pop a cab or 2
BU/Aim -> consume -> FSC -> Burn -> that lower aoe power.

I gues that's a realy high aoe damage output.

My Mastermind Sinester X is a serious character, it's the evil clone of my main blaster Sinergy X. After Sinergy was nearly death due an attack of the Family, they made a DNA copy but it was stolen by the council. In a failed attempt to accelerate the grow-process Sinester lost his ice abilities but gained poison ability.

1 day Sinergy X and Sinester X wil face eachother, to decide once and for all who will be the only hero/vilian that carries the X-molecule.

Ice hands (first /ice power) is a good punchvoke, the recharge is realy small. Put it together with the normal brawl, you have a pretty fast chain going on.

Might be usefull too, consume. Great when you're low on end after a nuke and leech it all straight back

most of the powers are aoe based, between the mobs. So when you are in party with a troller or good agro tanker, you can pull out those powers. Solo, i wouldnt suggest Hot feet is a range keeper, seen it used by a few /fire blaster and it works quite good.

Though with a hold power, burn is pretty usefull, since you can hold->burn and move on to the next mob while the holded one gets a (3 SO slotted dmg) 10 BI.

Oh and the fire sword circle i believe uses massive endurance to activate.

If you go for the Force of Nature epic power, pop a few break-free's you can actualy play for a semi-fire tanker

if you are that short-minded, its pretty useless to reply any further for me.

you are free to disagree with me, each is free for his own opinion.

though:
topic title: Best Tank (good better best)
First line: what sort of tank should i start
so my question-stating is correct.

i found pretty good ways to get around in PvP zones, specialy in the cap30(or was it 31?) zone where GA isnt even available. Besides PvP is still a additional feature of the game, you dont have to play it and per definition not every player is going PvP.

Imho PvP should not be considered into the question 'whats a good tanker', its a optional thing with way different aspects to consider compared to PvM (PvE) tanking. Mobs are stupid and always go for the tanker (taunt, punchvoke), players are a tiny bit smarter and skip the tanker most of the time.

A advantage granite/rooted has, end-drain protection (hello sappers!!)

Then again, i'm realy not a coh-pvp fan

by any chance, you got a indication how long the Mire damage buff lasts? It realy sounds like an awsome hit-the-cap output power

I'm not that high lvl yet with my PB, i play by the team setup. With alot of tankers/scrappers and good healing i stick around in Nova form, when there are more blasters around i help around within the action in human form and the resist-shields. I'm going primairy human/dwarf with only 2 extra slots in my nova as backup (buildup -> nova -> boom)

Most probably i will use my dwarf as backup tank, as kheldian its pretty easy to swap around these forms very fast. Nova has a great long range, so you can help around pretty often in that form.

I still would take swift instead of hurlde, specialy when you got into rooted. Haymaker afaik does knockback on green/blue and some white minions, wich i felt pretty anoying.

But based on that list, he only got his rockarmor to go around.. painful

I would take taunt asap if you wont to be a team-tanker, once you got rooted/GA running (later at 32) your running speed comes to a nearly complete stop.

I lived without any travel power upto lvl35 (with punch/jab/KO blow/boxing as attacks), using (pre-ED) 6slotted swift to move around. Pre-32 you can consider taking the fighting pool for extra s/l resistance, try to get knockout blow asap (cute animation, lovely damage and dissorient).

Dont waste your 24 respec pre-32 yet.

I've been playing alot with my PB now, still quite enjoying it as it goes (damn those voids). Still having probs with wich powers to pick, i was wondering what buffs/toggle etcs continue in dwarf/nova form?

So far i know the resist toggles dont go, buildup/essence boost do continue in dwarf/nova. But those like swift/health/stamina, acrobatics, stealth etc? And the important one.. hasten?

Not to mention the sound it makes when it hits your poorly opponents... Took a toon upto lvl23 with it, by then i was totaly fed up with it.

Now thinking to make a inv/axe or fire/axe tanker :P
