I have been knocked back on the RSF while running Granite+Rooted on my Nrg/Stone Brute. They do indeed have some serious KB powers

I got my Shield/Fire Tank up to 49 recently and did a build on Mids (not on this computer) to pick up the Fire Mastery for some added AoE with Fireball.

The problem I was having was extra recharge. I think I could only come up with 50-60% global recharge and I was hoping to get into the 75-85% range.

Does anyone have any softcapped Shield/Fire builds I can use for ideas? I will post mine tonight when I get home


Thanks


Edit: Unlimited Influence builds are welcome

I slot that proc on every toon I can even my WP Scrappers/Tanks/Brutes

I like it even better on my WP toons cause I can slot 2. Once I start cranking up the recharge on a build endurance usually becomes and issue.

My suggestion is to make more inf and slot that IO on all your toons

with FA, tactics and an percep IO, slotted in BU or FA, you could see stalkers within 10 feet (melee range) all the time.

This is false.

Check your numbers again.

Fa+Tactics+IO is just shy of seeing them

45-60 minutes if you kick [censored]

I want in on the TF

I got my Shield/Fire Tank up to 49 and would like to try it out on the new TF or ITF.

If ya got room I am in

Remember, this is a boost to a power's base damage, not slotted.

Just to add a little, so does Build Up and Aim

They all boost base damage not slotted damage. So the chance for BU proc is indeed the same effect as Build UP with half the duration

Aim = 10 seconds
Build Up = 10 Seconds
Proc = 5 seconds

I thought Imps did not benefit from the purple IO sets because they are level 49

Did this get changed?

I find if secondaries with self heals didnt really need Hibernate but thats just me. Phase worked fine so far

Defenses dont suppress while mezzed

I c whut u did thar.

I still have an awful image burned into my brain thanks to someone


Take Shout BTW

Yes it slows DPS but so do a lot of powers that are still very useful. Also dont forget with Scourge, its hits even harder

Hi Mel, what an unpleasant surprise.

...Guess I stepped into somethin'

[/ QUOTE ]

Thats just a little meldash on your shoe

Im just here to comment on the actual post title


Yes you should

That is all

That was the most expensive LoTG proc I ever paid for as a matter of fact but I got my LoTG I needed and you still came away with some inf so it all worked out.

Next time I will just give you inf though so I dont feel so dumb

Wow. Good to know its a bug.
Otherwise how could you get a PVP IO if you don't get them in zone or on the arena which is the only place they would drop?

You could buy all mine

Had to happen eventually

I tried both Power and Fire and both did pretty well. This is with the temp phase for zones.

PB makes holds still hold and allows for more healing during heal decay. Also gives you CP for when ya get popped by Thermal's HE

Fire hits a good bit harder and activates pretty fast

If you are using a /Rad, Rock armor and sets can make you hard as hell to hit and you get a form of Earth's Embrace(for some reason I am uncertain of this atm, too much alcohol and Transformers last night)


Oh and Hai Squints

On a semi-related note

You mentioned having enough +perception to see them at 10'. I am guessing you have Hightened Senses+Tactics+Focused Acc or Targetting Drone.

The reason I bring it up is due to the +perception cap only allowing that 10' range to see them and the fact that the aura from WP's RTTC supresses both stealth and the stealth IO, you dont really need that much perception to see stalkers coming after you.

Once they get close enough for RTTC to effect them, you can see them.

And also if you dont have the set up with 3 actual +perception powers you arent at the cap. HS+Perc IO+Tactics, FA or Targetting Drone is just short of the cap. Just throwing that out incase ya didnt know. I was able to drop some +perception on my WP Scrappers and Brutes thanks to the supression RTTC caused in stealth powers.

Ha!

I just wish the devs would get off our server and let us play already.

EDIT: They actually put up the patch notes first for once. (Erm..I mean for the first time in quite a while.)

[/ QUOTE ]


They just managed to leave out how they removed PvP drops from arena matches


My time here is running out. I am [censored] sick of nerfs/fixes without notification or reasoning behind the actions


Edit: No drops in zones either. I hope this isnt a case off turn it off to fix it like the CoP or Base Raids

[ QUOTE ]
Slotting it in Build Up or Aim isn't nearly as effective IMO, as it's only available to even have the check performed for the proc every 30 seconds or so with most builds. In that time, you'd get at least 3 checks from a toggle power and likely more from Follow Up or similar attack powers.


[/ QUOTE ]


While I agree about the slotting into an attack power like Follow Up I do not agree with it being more useful in a toggle

I personally want it to check and maybe happen when I want it to. Slap it in Aim and sometimes Aim is better than BU. Slap it in BU and when it fires you better hope you arent on the other end of that attack. Most of the teams I play on hit mobs full force and wipe em off the map. This is because everybody with access to Aim or Build Up uses it and attacks the mob. With a few people having extra 80-100% damage on an opening attack, that just adds that much more front loaded damage when the team makes its alpha strike.

If PvP didnt suck so damn bad maybe people would actually PvP to get drops but lets face it, PvP is crap here



If this is a bug I hope it gets fixed

If they removed it but are to chicken [censored] to admit they did it I wont be around too much longer. This game continues to make changes that take away from things I find enjoyable. I have learned to adapt and find new things but they way things get "changed" without actually saying it did is for the birds


Make a change, say you did it and why. Costumers keep this game alive. Avoiding things like this is such bad business on their part it really gets to me. I run a business with 52 employess. I cant always make everybody happy but if a change is coming I let people know so they can not only prepare but feel like I am here to be honest and helpful with the coming changes.

This crap is getting old really quick

Given how easy it is to farm in the arena... I'm thinking "not a bug." (I'd have two firetanks, one sitting on the respawn spot of the other, swap once you get a recipe, but I haven't given it much thought.)

[/ QUOTE ]

It's just another attempt to get players to the PvP zones.

[/ QUOTE ]


Is that why they added all kinds of arena badges?



This was my way of IO'ing out all my 50s that I have shelved for so long. Looks like I get to scratch PvP IO farming off my list of reasons I still play.

Damn, my list is smaller than I thought.

It isnt neccesary but the benifit it gives you is AWESOME

The Taunt portion is not auto hit but the -range debuff is

Zones or arena

Must be withing 3 levels of each other to get a drop
