Stackable mez protection, great DDR and with the ato proc and upcomng resistance set bonus changes, better than decent resistance as well. Go with rebirth for a heal if you think you need it, dark melee if you think you need more. Have never needed more than rebirth though. Even if I have 12 DE monsters aggroed.
It may not be a stone tank, but I have never felt like I needed more survivability on my shield. Paired with fire makes it feel like a very heavy scrapper. Spawns just melt. -
Story wise... Soloing the finale of Dream Doctors arc in DA is about as good as it gets for me. The way it is written always makes me feel a bit like Neo wrapping the helicopter rappel rope around his arm and bracing himself.
Feat wise... There is still no feeling in the game quite like having a full teams instance worth of spawns chasing me around until I decide it is time to roast them. -
The most satisfying sound in the game to me will always be the sound of the old fully saturated fulcrum shift. BzzzzzztSNAP! And then the client boots you.

Quote:Adding more fear to the mix won't help. My best advice if if you are farming, stay at +1 or less so that most of the spawn is defeated by your alpha. When the runners run, move on to the next spawn, they will catch up to you eventually.Is Invoke Panic worth taking with Provoke in that pool? Would this be helpful for a Spines/fire farmer?
Also, consider melee hybrid. The tree with defence has a taunt aura. It's not up all the time, but it will help a bit.
And next time, I recommend starting a new thread, this one died long, long ago. -

Then you must have me on ignore because my first post in this thread was a direct question regarding the parameters of your experience in your comparison. The question you responded to with a kick rocks. I didn't mention your grammar at all. Actually, I believe I have stayed on topic more than you have in this thread.

Quote:Ouch. No wonder it is great at single target. Much more than a single target and you are ******. That is insane.I actually was recently working on a spreadsheet to compare the buff/debuff sets based on how much time they would spend on average in animation time (using Arcanatime and recharge timers).
Unless Traps has 66% recharge and uses Trip Mine and Time Bomb, Poison spends the most time of any of the other sets just animating. So it has to do more to get less than other sets.
Worse still, all those powers being reapplied means it averages nearly as much Endurance usage over 60 seconds of combat as Storm does with all 3 of it's toggles on... unslotted. -

Quote:On SO's, and running at +0/1(going by what she runs on her scrappers here. I could be talking out my ***.) the sets are really well balanced and have similar survivability, while going about it in different ways.Can someone summarize what he wrote? The wall scares me too much to read it.
I'm interested in knowing the answer to Electric Armor vs WP, though.
Electric Armor doesn't like the taste of Devouring Earth. True story.
I repeat, the devs got it right.
In other news, at that level, any of my tankers can do that without my shields even toggled on except mez shield. Even then, I am pretty sure my hp can take what the mobs give out till I can combine the inspirations into a break free.
In other other news, the sun is hot. -
Quote:So your favorite part of a discussion is listening to yourself talk? Damn what anyone else has to say or add. /em plugears Lalalala.Knew it was a matter of time before you showed up.
No you may not ask. I aint going through anymore fiascos answering anymore of your questions. Kick rocks.
I repeat, lol. -
Lol. You are a trip.
I am assuming the gist of your experience is that they are balanced well against each other when using SO's. Looks like the devs nailed it.
Since you mostly solo, may I ask what difficulty you are running at? -
I smelt these puns coming from a mile away. Let minnow when it's over.

Quote:She is convinced defense doesn't work for her. Anytime it comes up the thread devolves into math vrs perception, and degrades from there. She has made her decision, and prefers resistance as a defense mechanic and does not wish to turn it into an argument. I can respect that.May I ask why you skip Defense powers? Heightened Senses can be a huge survivability boost for your Stalker. Why would you skip it? I don't care if it's a long story, I honestly want to know, even if you just PM me with it. Being solely resistance-based just seems like an odd decision to me, when you could just avoid the hits in the first place.

Quote:Exactly. They are great for saving slots all over the place. Anywhere I would slot more than a single generic io I use them. Perma hasten with the generic slot? Okay.No, he probably meant what he said -- I'm the same way, I boost up a TON of different IOs on my builds. It's managed to save me two slots on every toon (1 from formerly 3-slotted Hasten, the same from Stamina).
I have a ton also, but easy can use upwards of 50 or more of them on a toon I'm doing a fairly high-end build on.
I do use xp boosters as well but honestly would trade those for enh. Boosters any day. Am happy to trade extra slots for an hour... -

Jeebus. Can't fathom having that many just lying around unused...

Flame Mastery/Rise of the Phoenix: The untouchable portion of this power no longer has a delay. -
Quote:I think that 3 films might be a tad excessive for an adaptation of a book that's 30% shorter that the shortest book in the LOTR trilogy (going by word count). What concerns me more is the controversy over the frame rate and the reactions over how it makes the film look "flat".
