Imho a Stalker is even better in a (big) team than a scrapper because even when you´re unhidden you have a chance to crit which increases with every member joining the team. THIS is what has made stalkers that much better than scrappers for teams (for me)

Quote:This, but I have to say that it is having certain issues, when playing under WINE such as bugged superjump and stuff. I have been running CoH under Ubuntu with the latest WINE version still buggy but as you said:Just to clarify here, please don't get me wrong. Your guide is excellent and this is certainly an optional for some. I just wanted to point out that it's not always necessary to have to pay for Cedega to play CoH under Linux.
I am a suscriber to CoH, I already support this game. Also Linus Torvalds would also say: The way Cedega works is not the way I have intended to make Linux work (as he was programming Linux to be independent of UNIX licenses and doing this for the good of all people -> Open Source) -
I think it would have been much better to unlock EATs at 38.
This in my opinion is the best point as you then have all the primary and secondary powers available and the next then are Patrons or Hero "Epic" Pools.
You had the chance till 38 to experience all the basics of the character you have chosen. -
Quote:errr....this is working as intended. But grounded also gives u protection against immob effects for running no toggle. Also it is a great setmule for res/def unique or (if you want to have kb protection while jumping around) for a kb IO.The skipable power for ElA would be Grounded... its buggy. It protects against knock back/down but only when your on ground, and any slight incline in caverns or on ramps will... well not ground you.
Also you do not have to do a bank mish for the raptor jetpack, it is available at the jetpack vendor in Grandville.
According to skipping: My /Ela Stalker sits at 32 and i have already skipped Power Sink because as a stalker i do not have large endu problems at all. Second I think I'll skip Power Surge. The crash can suck but can also be pretty cool ( MoG down = Mob mezz) but as a Stalker I do not go on a mish set on +4/8 or so and I am not a Brute who needs the resists for tanking. -

hm...Half my toons are redside the other one blueside.
Both have nice content although i like villain arcs more (especially the whole Storyarcs about the Coralax) and we have more cutscenes! -
A Friend of mine had a PB for PvP, wasn´t that bad but he played on Union where (as on all EU Servers) is not that much PvP as in the US.
So i just can tell it worked quite well, blasting in Nova slotted for range, human for shields and heals, dwarf for another heal.
Hopes anyone else can give his opinion on this -
1st I wanted perma eclipse which this builkd pretty much covers. Also II mainly wanted to use Nova for dmg output adding "Fluffies of Doom" and Quasar for more additional dmg.
When I play I mainly use the dwarf just for the Mire, so I left building much around dwarf except for purple set bonuses.
Said I always use double Mire go to Nova and blast the heck out of the mobs using Nova. I just hit 33 so I can´t really think of how long eclipse is lasting and if it needs to be used ever 2nd/3rd/4th mob.
Hope this helps -
Heya Kheldian lovers out there,
I tried to push up a WS several times, but quit also several times...
But now it has gotten me back, so I made a first attempt for a build.
As I do not sell purples I find normally I have 1/3 of the purple IOs already in stock.

Will this work out?
Or are there any optimizations needed?
Greetings

Elm/*
I paired it with Regin and its fun like freakin hell! -
Ice/x.
EoE covers your Res against hami Dmg, Hoarfrost for pushing up HP and Hibernate as it overcomes the -reg of the green Mitos. -
No. Aid self is nonsense for a reg stalker. REALLY!
Fail to placate..?
I think you placate while the mob starts to hit you. When animation is running he is then likely to hit you, therefore breaking stealth but afterwards he normally won´t attack you a 2nd time giving you the time to go hidden. -
Da ich prinzipiell zu 90% der Zeit die ich spiele im Team bin und gestern auch locker ein 8 Mann Team auf einer Range zusammengekriegt haben verstehe ich deine Einwände nicht.
Ebenso Recluse SF:
In 99% der Fälle wo ich die SF aufgestellt habe, wollten immer 1 oder 2 Leute mehr mit und es hat immer gefunzt. Zuletzt hab ich selbige vor 1,5 Wochen gemacht, öfter muss ich die auch nicht spielen.
Zum Aspekt Hami Raid:
Haste auf Union eigentlich genauso oft wie auf Zukunft: Quasi nie, bzw. alle paar Jubeljahre. Schade an sich der letzte Schurkenraid war echt cool, es traut sich nur mMn keiner an die Orga.
Und zum (mir wichtigen) PvP Aspekt:
Leider war gestern zur Mean Time keiner in RV auf Union, schade, aber auch dort ist die Community am schrumpfen, einige haben auf den US Servern gar neu angefangen. -
1. Dein Post ist von halb 3 und es gibt genug Leute die zu dieser Zeit arbeiten.
2. Schurken werden generell weniger gespielt. Warum? Keine Ahnung.
3. Ich war gestern Abend zur "Meantime" kurz auf Union. Dort habe ich auf Heldenseite auch nicht viel mehr feststellen können als bei uns. Außer dass der öffentliche Chat mehr genutzt wird.
4. Der einzige Grund Toons zu transferieren wäre PvP. Aber dafür sind mir meine Toons zu schade auch wenn ich sie nicht mehr spiele.
5.Rücktransfers sind möglich.
Kurz: Ich denke nur wenige werden Toons permanent nach Union transferieren, die restlichen Server sind ebenso "meh" wie Zukunft.
Die deutsche Community ist sehr gefestigt, ich denke nicht, dass eine Menge Leute den Server wechsseln werden.
just my 2 cents -
Quote:Sad that it is like that....And as I said before, I doubt any AT will disappear. But I do think current trends will continue. Tanks, Defenders, and Stalkers will still be unpopular ATs regardless of which side we're talking about.
I have got 5 Tanks, 4 Stalkers and 5 Defenders and I REALLY like these ATs.
It all depends on your playstyle.
To topic:
AS Dispari also mentioned, I also would say Tank equals Brute in the Role. Its a "Tanking Class" for the team and with the right buffs it does not matter whether a Tank or Brute is the "Tank" for an ITF or LGTF. Especially if you mention defense based toons.
If a shield tank is softcapped and a shield brute also, then there is no reason when u have a cold with frostwork pushing booth up to max HP to say well the brute is better anyway or yeah the tank is better anyway for tanking.
And then coming to brute/scrapper: Scrappers will never exchange brutes and vice versa. And tanks will not exchange brutes or vice versa cause every AT has it´s benefit to exist. -
From Paragonwiki:
Quote:So yes I think FS works with creepers but i do not use em often on my 50 plant/kin.Note: Carrion Creepers (the power itself) summons a Carrion Creeper Patch which is invisible, untargetable, 2 minute duration, and follows you (via the ground with limited jumping ability, Carrion Creeper Patch cannot fly) with the following powers and pet summons below:
Powers
Bramble (Auto, PBAoE 20ft, -Fly, -Runspeed, -Maxrunspeed, -Jumpheight)
Carrion Creepers (Pet, summon Carrion Creeper Patch on every enemy corpse within range every 10 seconds)
Powers
Entangle (Ranged, AoE, DoT(Smash), DoT(Lethal), Immobilize, -Knockback, -Fly)
ResistAll (Untouchable)
Self Destruct (after 2 seconds)
Vines (Pet, summon Carrion Creeper Vine on every enemy within range every 10 seconds with 50% chance)
Powers
Resistance (Auto, Self +Res(Toxic, Psionic), Self +Def (Psionic)
Self Destruct (after 15 seconds)
Vine Smash (melee, Smash, DoT(Toxic), Knockdown, Slow, -Fly, -Runspeed, -Maxrunspeed, -Jumpheight)
Vine Thorns (ranged, Lethal, DoT(Toxic), Slow, -Fly, -Runspeed, -Maxrunspeed, -Jumpheight)

I just played around a little bit....and yeah it really sucks if you want to softcap this!
I also tried by getting high recharge on Shadow Meld which I could push down to 39 secs recharge and giving me 43% def after all so one would be nearly at softcap.
I hope I can log into the forums when I am at home to upload this.....yesterday my pc was kinda on strike <.< -

If you build on sets, to keep your end up, then you can run a reggen stalker easy without stamina at all. Especially if you only take integration and no other toggles for instance assault oder tactics.
If you want to travel with ninja run i´d recommend hurdle. You can turn on sprint for faster moving if you want to, that makes swift nonsense imho. -
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeee!
-
Well....what do you want to do?
AoE carnage or slooooooow single target dmg?
If you are into ST then BS or EM would be your choices, in fact that BS has parry which makes it easy to softcap your melee defense.
EM is for burst dmg only, but after the "great nerf" it is not as good as it was before, but is is pretty solid for taking out enemies with less shots.
ELM is the one for real AoE carnage!
Starting with Lightning Rod (which does not crit and does not get you out of hidden status) and Thunderstrike afterwards which then crits!!! it is really fun to tear whole groups of enemies apart
All 3 go fine with Nin but I prefer ELM as I really really really like the massive AoE dg it has. -
Quote:Well, I think it synergizes quite well, as you have knockdown like in SS or Axe or IM.How does Ice synergize with Electric Melee? I tried Ice/Ice and rerolled almost immediately (couldn't stand the Frozen Fists animation, I don't like Barrage much either, unfortunately I have to deal with Slash because I'm not dropping it)
So far I like it, but it's a whole whopping level 3 right now.
I know that by going Electric instead of Ice I'm giving up some control, but is the extra AoE potential worth the trade, especially in the late game? If Ice Melee got Ice Sword Circle like Icey Assault I'd be all for it (I like that power for some reason, even if the damage IS crap)
[...]
Also I think it´s nice to do as the following:
1st Mob -->run in, taunting with the auras and then -->2nd Mob -->Give them the glorious feeling of LR and TS and you have 2 groups herded where in the second the minions and eventually lts are down so you do not reach over tauntcap. And I also would like to have Ice Sword Circle on other ATs (Blaster, Tank).
I really like it on my dom especially cuz it´s a permadom and I got some procs in it so I don´t think that this powers dmg is crap... -
Everyone of us once started the game without knowing some things :
Mezzed: Mezzed means that you are affeted by status effects: Hold, Sleep, Stunned...
Defiance: Your inherent power. Before the changes it works as teh following:
The less HP you got the more dmg u do. That is why some Blasters hated it when an empath was on team healing him all the time
Defiance now works as this:
Every attack you charge gives a small bonus to your dmg for a short time. Single target attacks give a higher bonus then cones or AoEs. On top of that a blaster now can use the first two attacks of his primary and the first power of his secondary powerset while mezzed
