So, after getting bored with the common PvP charecters now I feel its about time to try something people have given up on (except dahjee
) and make a decent Assault Rifle PvP corruptor.
p.s. reppin dahjee as your hero might increase trolls in your many pvp question threads, just sayin. -

this is a pretty huge bug if its really a perma -100% recovery debuff. anyone test yet?

Unless you Fraps it and count and are in range of sight of the greens being popped there is no way.
with observers flight being broken, it would be nearly impossible to watch for anyway.
imo this isnt a problem we should worry about policing because we really just cant. best you can do is hope for a fix. -
Quote:i thought that was a fix for widescreen users. for the last 1-2 issues my enhancement screen was buggy on my 2 separate widescreen machines until they changed it in i17. it could be related to the incarnate system coming, but at this point i think it was just a ui fix.Originally Posted by Supermax
Speaking of which, is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the power/slot screen looks a bit different after the last issue? It may be just some graphical thing, but all the powers have room for 7 slots now. Like there's an extra space on the end, where there wasn't one ever before. Can't slot more than 6, but perhaps it's a sign that in the near future you will be able to? Anybody else thought about this?

the fortunata hypnosis placate proc is a mag 2 placate
for comparison:
placate is mag 4
smoke flash from ninjitsu is mag 3
as far as i know no AT can crit after the proc goes off, ive never used it in a stalker though to know for sure. it makes no sense to use on a brute imo. -

thanks for the input, everyone.
i wasnt trying to flame bait, just looking toward the future as im running out of things to try and have about 2x of most of the fotms.
i like 1v1s, and with the new vigilance and the possibility of new epics/ppps i was leaning toward a defender, though, i can see why people would say go with a corr. i might just do both since theres still another month at least before any new info goes public. probably one with dark and one with sonic blasts to try offensive vs defensive style.
i definately wont be doing this on freedom: 1st because im full there now, 2nd because people only 1v1 there if the matchup is clearly in their favor. dont get me wrong, its nice for # of people in zones and all the 6-8v8 kbs that regularly happen but theres no variability in builds. its like seeing a concentrated effect of what i13 did to pvp. /rant -
has anyone seen a non-mastermind version of traps do ok in any form of pvp(zone, small team or 1v1 arena)? i was planning to try one again to pve on anyway, but if its possibly viable for pvp i could at least pick a blast set to work better for that purpose later on.
specific questions:
do seeker drones apply separate stackable sets of debuffs since there are two of them?
does poison trap have any use? i cant remember if it makes players go through the vomit animation or not, but does it apply a longer than normal duration hold(eg: telekinesis)?
if you spammed webnades would someone's recharge/speed be noticeably affected?
before you tell me to roll something else i already have and have pvp'd on just about every other debuff set available. i actually used traps too but only in sirens and it was in the old system and alot of things have changed.
i was thinking of pairing it with either dark, sonic, psi, fire, or rad. -
i want castle's job. where else can you mess something up, then undo it and get praised. he basically nets nothing and gets paid.

Quote:like in dragon quest?(1st thing that came to mind)Originally Posted by Tenzhi
The set has already had me wanting a Slimes Mastermind set with some toxic blasts in it. Giving it to Corruptors would just make me want a full Toxic Blast set.
with i17 i rolled a demons/poison and took all the attacks to simulate a corruptor, it works ok until the 20s when the pets damage starts overshadowing your own. if i didnt really hate the pet ai reliant playstyle it wouldnt bother me but poison is so interesting as a set that i still want to try it on a corr.
a toxic blast set could be cool but being a realist i cant see it happening, but poison can be directly ported over and all they would have to change is noxious gas. honestly they could replace it with a [mechanical] clone of anguishing cry or disruption field and the set would be perfect. -
Quote:it shouldnt be really, its got alot of places for cheap steadfast/karma instead of pricey zephyrs and it only takes 1 set of gaussian at most. maybe if you plan to use cloud senses procs to beef up dark blast it may get pricey but i havent checked to see if those have come down since i got a couple when they were new.Originally Posted by Silas
What about a Dark/Cold would make it especially expensive compared to other builds?
i think what neeto is trying to say is that it used to be a better build before the changes and now requires more investment to remain viable, but there is still room for skill to shine through. -
poison corruptors.

Quote:maybe he could slot that recovery debuff proc into gloom and darkest night..? still ss/elec is not the best combo for a melee sapper. if i was building something for this specific task it'd be dm/ea or elec/ea but it would have to have been during a leveling exploit because theres no way i could ever play melee with whats out currently.Originally Posted by ConFlict

I will say the ones I have seen that do what you seem to be looking for have gw for a patron. I am going to guess its for dn to stop aid self but I am not sure. -
Quote:well, you could just lose provoke for firebreath and slot boxing with 4 kin combat to make up for the lost defense. but i dont know if you are somehow making use of provoke, my highest trapper was like 30.Originally Posted by Frosticus
My live build is probably only 90% complete. The screens are hard to see, but I'm not softcapped to s/l or ranged yet and I am 30% shy of my planned global rech. But this is where I'm going with my next respec.
The only thing I would like to have and don't is firebreath. RoF+firebreath+fireball devastates x8 spawns. Unfortunately it would mean losing the pet which adds a bit of dps and occassional distraction vs AV's, which is more the purpose of this toon. It is totally useless fighting spawns though. That said it can still handle +1/8 and +2/8 (if I use some of the insp that rain down) -
Quote:probably because thats a very fightclub-y/pve-ish build. no meaningful -kb and no perception mean you will get tossed around for a kill and someone could just hide for the rest of the match.Originally Posted by PBaRmy
i think i hear crickets....
dont discount yourself though, if you take taunt and web envelope you could be very useful on a zone team.
brutes are not the best pvp AT, let alone ones that cant handle much kb.
i pvpd on an em/elec but i wont give advice since i havent played it in a few issues. try the brute boards. -

i think the worst part is they clearly state that they want the badge without actually having to pvp to get it and they still get catered to. can i have the pve accolades without having to actually pve?

Quote:eh i already have the dom and a ff mm, and besides im not looking for a new toon, just messing with slotting with the last freespec.Originally Posted by Neeto
make a FFer 6 slot force bolt 1acc 1KB IOs = 55.8KB
has anyone tested what beats the most common IO slotting of -41 is what i really want to know, and if not does anyone want to? -
Quote:i want to ignore base buffs, unless they work in the arena(not sure, i never use them). ive never seen any rules against their use in any tourneys over the years, but if they work and noone cares then this post was pointless.Originally Posted by macskull
I know ra 6-slots his kb powers with kb ios (or something silly like that) and can get through builds that would normally stay on their feet. Can also use the base buff, if you're in zone.
oh and about ra 6 slotting, is 6 really needed or would 5 and 1 acc do? ive just never seen much questioning over kb since everyone just assumes 41 is the magic number. -
if you can afford this build i am going to have to charge you inf to critique it.
