Quote:there is no Hoarfrost in the troller version of ice mastery, unless mids is wrong??Originally Posted by Tater Todd
I have to chime in here buddy Fire Shield is a Trap, it's horrid believe me. 20 resist is nothing honestly, especially if you're going solo and you're taking half or 1/4 of an alpha. Defense is the way to go. The only thing that's worth it with the Fire Epic is the blast, Fireball and Rise of the Phoenix. Consume is on way to long of a recharge.
I would recommend Ice or Stone. Mostly Ice though. Ice has Ice Blast, Frost Breath AND Ice Storm. That's a lot of damage if you ask me and if you don't want to take hibernate you can take hoarfrost.
Imho you need Hibernate for a stormie sometimes. I not only used it as a panic button I also used it when I was flat out of end. -
Cant decide on Epic Power for plant/storm on fire ambush maps. should i go fire or ice mastery?
Fire: fireball charges faster for aoes, and fire shield has 20 resist
Ice: has 10% fire resist, Ice Storm w recharge 120sec, and hibernation, but i dont think i'll need to hibernate. I just wanna keep the attacks going.
Ughhh tough choice -
Quote:Well after slotted its 80%hp, AND with +rech it stacks so u can get it to 160% hp, also earth has a nice shield and a +kb aoe dmg attack. But the waterspout does have nice base Dmg, So im torn on the decision, would any other epic pool be a better choice?Originally Posted by Egos_Shadow
I don't think Spout gets containment.
Spout is awesome, though. Leviathan all the way if those are your two choices. I mean, +40% hp sounds cool and all, but as a Plant/Storm I can't help but think that if things are able to attack you heavily as opposed to flailing around helplessly in a stew of all kinds of summoned nonsense then things have already gone horribly wrong and +40% hp will not be enough. -
So which Epic would you recommend Stone or Leviathan? Waterspout + Tornado sounds impressive on damage, But Earths Embrace + 40% hp seems so much more survivable. BTW does waterspout get containment bonus?

Im haveing the same problem. I try to run the game and it says I have the wrong version. I run the updater but it says im ok. Verifying the files dosnt work also.

Looking for combo that can sap real quick then go in for the kill. I don't want to spend all day saping.
kin/elec - Def
Elec/Psi - Dom
Elec/Therm - Troller (thinking this would be best)
Elec/Elec - Dom
Elec/kin - Corr
Elec/Therm - Corr
Feel Free to add to this list..... -
Quote:Does it put out enough damage to farm?Originally Posted by Iron_Specter
That is pretty much how my earth/ storm rolls and it works for me.
-
I would like to make a Earth/Storm/leviathan to farm S/L Ambush AE Farm. Think this is possible?
Tactics in Theory:
1) Use Stalagmites + Thunder Clap , Perma-Stun mob
2) Stone Cages to clump immob and add -kb to stop the KB from pets
3) Drop Mutilple Tornado's + Water Spout + Lighting Storm, For Damage
4) Drop Freezing Rain & -res Procs to add to the damage
I'm hopeful that there is enough mitigation from all the stuns + Fear from Tornado & Waterspout, and taunt coming from Animated Stone to keep me safe, also +60 S/L resist from Tough+Shark Skin.
Will there be enough Damage from pets to farm like this? Mids says:
Tornado - 829 Damage, 7ft Aoe (You can put TWO of this out at once)
Waterspout - 561 Damage, 7ft Aoe (Has + 14 sec stun to add with all the others)
Lightning Storm - 82 Damage
Animated Stom - ??? Damage
Enough Damage to farm with? Your Thoughts?? -
I'm talking about the Damage aura on the tornado, Mids says AOE on Tornado is 20ft, But I seen post that says it has a "small" pbaoe damage aura. Does anyone know how big the damage aura is on tornado? does it hit alot of mobs at once? or just one?

Quote:Why Does everyone say Elec is low damage?Originally Posted by Local_Man
Well, I'm not an expert on the Electric Control set, as mine is only in the mid-30s, but it is a fun, low damage set that can be best compared to Ice Control with some interesting quirks.
I Have a 50 Elec/FF/stone troller and it breezes +3 x8 farms SOLO.
On Teams I normaly out damage eveyone else, AND usually the only toon left standing on Ambush farms. I didn't even pick up Static Field, I plan on it after respec. it'll prolly even do better.
Gremlins die in first few seconds of battle, I only use them to clean up near end of the battle since I'm all AOE's.
The Purp Confuse Proc works like a charm. and when it jumps, it'll jump to a Unconfused mob and 30% aoe confuse each jump. very nice. -
I hear that a proc in Conductive Aura targets BOTH you and the enemy when using "Performance Shifter: Chance for +End", So my question is.....
If you get +recovery "Per" target. Making ME a target per enemy up to 8 times" Does that mean "Performance Shifter: Chance for +End" can fire "per" target every ten seconds to me? Much like the "Theft of Essance: Change for +End" does in Dark Regeneration??? -

Slight innacuracy.
Procs either;
1) Have a chance to Proc on the target
2) Have a chance to Proc on the caster.
Performance Shifter is an example of (1) it has a proc chance on the target. As has been said, in CA, there are 2 EndMod flagged targets. 1 is you, so theres a proc chance for you, and 1 is every enemy in your aura (up to its max size) -
Quote:Either really, Id like to farm those hotspots for lvl 30 recipes, and there is always a HUGE mob at those hot spots. I have a DM/Ice tank that can survive the hotspot mob, but it takes Soooo long to kill them. So i need something that can survive and wipe them out quicker.Originally Posted by Scientist_16
As a hero or villain? That will determine if your'e fighting Longbow or Arachnos spawns.

Looking for a good build that would be able to solo farm Sirens Hotspots.
REMEMBER!!!!!!!!
That Mobs can knock off ANY toggle in a PVP zone that dmgs or Debuffs them.
RTTC, Hot Feet, AAO, Arctic Air, Chocking Cloud, ETC all can be untoggled in PVP zones.
So That being said, which would be a good build for it? -
I Have a FF/Sonic that i solo PVP with. Best PvP toon i have at this moment. 400 rep, SOLO mostly in Sirens. Force Bubble is WAY more powerful then even imagined.
Pros
1) Unhides stalkers - just pop Force bubble up, run around and find all the stalkers.
2) Keeps Most melee toons off you. with exception of WP And Electric. which i don't run into that much. wp a little more but not a problem.
3) It's kill MM easy button. first PFF and force bubble up. jump next to mm, drop your pff and ur force bubble sends the henchmen flying away from mm leaving him without BG mode and alone to kill.
Cons
4) DOms Doms Doms, they drop your forcebubble quite easy and take away your best defences.
With sonic -res you can take out brutes, stalkers, corrs and mm's fast. I always have problems with Doms though.
The Defense works nice in pve, but crap in pvp. I don't even use dispersion bubble in PvP, PFF will give you just enough to jump away and click aid self when you land. -
Quote:hmmm. How much does DDR play in PvP???Originally Posted by macskull
1. Ninjitsu has +perception as well.
2. Travel suppression affects any movement speed, including IOs, Quickness, Swift, Retsu, Elude, whatever.
Here's what you're getting with SR and Ninjitsu:
SR: More defense debuff resistance, 20% recharge buff, in-set knockback protection, scaling resists (largely worthless on a low-HP character in PvP).
Nin: Stackable psi resistance from Kuji-in Rin, fear resistance, good self-heal, cone confuse/sleep/-percep/-tohit power.
The only reason to go with SR over Nin is if you're a cheap ******* and don't want to buy -KB IOs. -
Well anyway, there is a ss/wp brute named zylo that i seen take on 4 heros at once and win. so there gotta be some builds that can ward off multiple attackers, cause i have seen a few AT's with heros all over them like they was a AV or GM and barley putting a scratch on them.

Quote:Yeah In RV not Sirens.Originally Posted by Supermax
Too bad everybody in the zone has more than 1000 HP. All you'll do is hurt someone, they'll heal, and you'll be dead.
Forgot the first attack is a crit. so that'll be +1500 dam in less than 10 secs.
AND if your talking RV then we can add MOG
120% defense
75% resist
for 15 secs, i'm sure you can kil a few in that time, and when the 15 sec are over, you still have +70% defense -
Quote:Don't Forget there's a 600 hp heal you can pop every 30 secs.Originally Posted by Psyrene
And with that attack chain you will kill no one all the while the heroes are hitting you for more than your 150hp/sec can regen. Aim+B/U > defense. And seriously these people aren't the AI and will attack you when you jump in the middle of all of them not run away or cower in fear because you are there. And you can only placate one of them......
Ain't killing no one?
BU........dmg.....sec
Divine = 222.....2sec
placate...........2sec
divine = 222.....2sec
Golden Dragon = 340...2sec
divine = 222
over 1000 dmg in 10 secs, and adds a 74% to defense at the same time -
Looking for something that can jump right in that "Hero Huddle" and not get floored before getting a few kills or soon as i enter the huddle. Pop in with a big hit then scrap it out till target is dead. I Mostly PVP in Sirens and there's a big huddle of hero's.
I have a shield Brute that has great defense. hero's miss a lot, but no heals to recover the HP. so running away is my only option. which I DON'T WANT.
I'm thinking maybe a NB/Regen Stalker, You'd be able to hit Dull pain + IH, then your attack chain BU+Divine+Placate+Divine that should give you over +45% defense while the regen is working at 1576% that's 150 hp per sec. Hero's prolly wont run when in a huddle. especially if its a scrapper or tank.
Whats your thought and Build ideas for a Hero Huddle Busting AT?
