Achilles -res proc in enforcers is what I'd go for. -
Quote:Stacking followups and postioning to get max targets requires time. SS bute clicks´footstomp and rage, gets no redraw on epic aoes.Originally Posted by Bill Z Bubba
How are you figuring that? Spin recharges in 14 seconds. FootStomp in 20.
They both have max target 10.
Is it more likely that you'll hit 10 with foot stomp than spin? Sure. It's certainly easier.
But there is no way that SS can out AoE DPS claws. Not when a claws user can sit back and repeat the attack chain followup, eviscerate, spin or followup, spin, shockwave. But the claws user won't even need to do that. For any given amount of recharge, spin will always do more DPS if all 10 enemies are being hit. IF the claws user never uses eviscerate and shockwave for even more AoE DPS.
In Take 2, (standard SO slotting) claws won. But Take 1 (cranked to the gills enhancement plus brute SS used gloom) showed brute SS beating scrapper Claws for single target damage output.
However, both of those threads were done before we found out that brute claws' damage got tweaked upwards.
I really should revisit those results at some point.
SS might still beat Claws on single target, but there's no chance that it can get anywhere near claws on AoE. -

DAMNIT! I spent 12 hours last night getting my ss/wp brute from 25 to 33 so I could get foot stomp. I should have rolled a claws. Ok that'll be my project tomorrow with my buddy then. What secondary should I be looking at? Is elec going to be the way to go for this guy due to the lower recharge of claws synergizing great with the +recharge of elec?
Edit: And Bill, according to your thread on the scrapper forums, doesn't Brute Claws out dps brute SS by a large margin? -
Some recommendations for starting out:
Brute: Dark Melee/Super Strength/Stone Melee/Claws/Warmace with Willpower
Corruptor:Fire/Dark, Ice/Dark, Sonic/Dark
Controller: Fire/Rad, Plant/Rad
Dominator: Plant/Fire
Scrapper: Spine/Will, Dark Melee/Will , Claw/Will, Katana/Will, Katana/Super Reflexes
All of hem solo well. -
Thug/dark and Thug/Traps would be my choice.

Quote:Can do pretty good pulls of the 2 avs in the third ITF mish as well. If you want crap powers look at poison trap in /poison or serum in merc/Originally Posted by Frosticus
Oh I pull...taffy.
I haven't tried with a stalker snipe, but unless they are different from other snipes then you are usually better pulling with something that does much lower damage. -
So my second villain created when i started playing just got a new lease of life thanks to finally getting SO´s and power customisation(sp?').
Instead of looking like a poor bison clone he now is more like a steampunk communist gunman.
Recolored steamy mist, gale, hurricane, snow storm and nado with dustlike colors (havent figured out a good replacement for freezing).
Anyway some questions:
- Soulbound Allegiance +Build Up, was thinking of putting it in bruiser but would it be better in enforcers or thugs since they more than 1 pet benefit from it?
Has anyone tried putting the Gaussian proc in enforcers and have you had any successs with it?
Any other good Procs i should consider for thug pets? Currently in the build i´m planning i have explosive strike and sa build up in bruiser, both +def in gang war(move to nado and put resists instead?) and neg damage in enforcers.
thats all i can think of atm, thankful for assistance. - Soulbound Allegiance +Build Up, was thinking of putting it in bruiser but would it be better in enforcers or thugs since they more than 1 pet benefit from it?

Twilight GRasp has a very wonky radius as well were a minion a few feet behind can get healed and another standing infron of me and not get healed at all.

Biker zombies sounds awesome /signed
-
I would try a dom for something like that. Ice/Fire(consume) or Ice/Psi(drain psyche)
-
They would also probably replace caltrops. Double caltrops would be fun though

I wont bother with hazard zone sweeping when you have the new difficulty settings.
DA with firebased toons was nice but now you can just get a BP radio in talos and sweep clean and reset. Increase difficulty until you outlevel it. -
Well havent played my plant/kin much but i made it to 9 and i solo -1/6 fine as long as i have purple insps. Should pick up considerably post so´s

Dm/invuln for sure, completely unstoppable. Build for typed defense, with recharge and regen/recovery in that order. Get accolades. Enjoy!!!
I can run Smite, Gloom, MG, Smite, SL with just 35% global recharge
If theres a kin on the team i run Smite, Gloom, MG, Smite, Gloom, SL(Can run it with hasten up otherwise but consumes far too much end to leverage with DC.) -
Quote:Invul - UnstoppableOriginally Posted by xTweeks
So I decided to make a WM/Invul and was wondering if there was any skippable powers in the sets. I have little experience with both and dont really want to waste my time using things that are pointless. Thanks in advance guys!

Quote:Confirmed, posted in the i16 bugs thread in technical about it and i think i even bugged it in game. Havent bothered BABs or Arbiter Kim yet.Originally Posted by Stupid_Fanboy
First I've heard of this. Can we get a confirmation from another spines? -
Quote:chance to hit you with +end every ten secondsOriginally Posted by Gaspard
Oh yeah about stamina.
Does the performance shifter affect anything when slotted in the power?
I'm curious, I once got the proc as a drop and thought of testing it. I got the salvage required for crafting it and transfered my bane to test.
On test I played some random missions while tracking my max endurance, endurance and recovery for one hour and I didn't see or notice any changes.
What's the deal yo?
monitor it in combast logs -

I haven't done it myself, but I have seen reports that an Ill/Storm can solo a GM . . . the damage from Tornado pretty much offsets the Regen.

Quote:Ahh thanks for clearing that up.Originally Posted by UberGuy
When you attack them, the power is scaled to be as if you were the GM's level. When the GM attacks you, the attack is scaled to be as if the GM is your level. Nothing else changes.

Quote:Then i must i have misunderstood how gm scaling works. I have always thought they scale to vwhatever level you are.Originally Posted by UberGuy
I don't know why you think it would be wrong. He has lower HP with the same regeneration % per second. That means he regenerates fewer HP/second. That's not wrong. It's a natural effect of being lower level.
Most mez protection scales with level. Look at the stats on toggle mez prot powers on your own characters while you change your level slider. -
Quote:So the Power Analyzer is showing innacurate results and Kraken would actually regenerate more that is shown?Originally Posted by UberGuy
Because Kraken's natural level is like 14, while Jack's is like 30 or 35.
GMs have levels, just like normal mobs. They have specially coded behavior that makes most effects scale so that anyone attacking them appears to be their level, and vice versa.
Still curious though of Krakens lack of mez protection and debuff resistance compared to Jack.
