    DB tankers

    Yours had scrapper survivability did it? or do tankers have to look slow and powerful?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Lack of survivability I would have blamed on the Willpower set.

    And yes, I do actually prefer Tanker sets having a "Juggernaut" appearance... attacks that makes you feel like weight and brute force is put behind.

    DB tankers

    I personally found the Dual Blades set too Scrapperish to be used as a Tanker... so rerolled my Willpower Tanker with Super Strength.
  3. Could someone link me to that Perfect Zinger set? I can't seem to find it on Red Tomax's otherwise marvellous site, and that psionic damage on Taunt chance intrigues me quite some .

    Hmmmm - thanks for the advice folks; at present my last power pick pre-Ancillaries is still some way off, but I have to admit Flurry's looking tempting.


    [/ QUOTE ]Trust me, the damage is horrible. [...]

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Flurry happens to have the highest damage of the power pool attacks available. That's pretty horrible, alright. The only negative thing about Flurry is the long rooted activation time (especially if you miss).

    Shadow Maul <3

    Flurry <3

    <3

    If I remember correctly, I took Flurry on the Private in an attempt to relive the glory of Sands of Mu, and while it truthfully failed to deliver, I've always enjoyed Flurry. Would probably still have it if I didn't get rid of it while respeccing to a more PvP oriented build.
  6. Best. piece. ever. !

    There's some amazing art on that site of yours. Wouldn't mind getting myself a spectacular piece of The Private sometime in the future .
  7. Yeah, those couple of seconds with suppression are oh so useful. Can hardly do anything before kicked right back into mezzed state.

    And don't play the 'lolol u pop teh braek free' card, heh.
  8. If I remember correctly, Lady Fuya is an Energy Melee/Dark Armor Brute.

    [...] EE are far better than invulns and ice for taunting as those 2 just have a self-heal with a long recharge

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Earth's Embrace also has a recharge of 360 seconds, just like Dull Pain and Hoarfrost. You're probably thinking about Healing Flames with its 60 seconds recharge, which doesn't increase the hitpoints though.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Tsk, tsk - cutting the quote removes the context I believe the point was that rooted + 360 second recharge self heal > just a 360 second recharge self heal.

    Argh... I blame... errrr... ...

    I CONCUR!

    Welcome back to a place where you can drink the water

    You can drink the water on Union... it just causes worse-than-normal altitis, or so I've found .

    With the Issue 7 changes to domination in PvP Dominators are now extremely potent.

    You have to play them very aggressively and choose power pools which will help keep you alive, if you manage to do that it is a powerful AT to play.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    They make combined Unyielding and Unstoppable useless and virtually inexistant .

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Correct... if it was possible to see the e-mail addresses, which it isn't (there are usually privacy settings in proper board solutions, such as ones enabling you to hide your e-mail address).

    Go, go, gadget... paranoia!

    And how often can villains purchase those temporary powers again? I've seen the zone in villain control very few times .

    Maybe it's just me sucking, or is the Nin/Nin stalker -really- sucky at low level?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Most Def sets are, I know I felt the pain on my EA Stalker and my SR Scrapper. Def really shines when you get multiple shields/SO's, nothing like beating on a mob and hardly being hit while your res based friend starts screaming for heals.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm talking damage-wise. I think my Brawl could do more damage than my special attacks. :|

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'd say it's just you. Yes, regular Stalker damage is fairly low, but slot your attacks for DMG and use plenty of attacks from hide (automatic critical hits y'know)... plus you can't claim Assassin's Strike is low DMG

    [/ QUOTE ]
    If used out of hide, sure you can... with its "below Brawl" damage .

    Thought it was the same as Scrappers. (75%)

    The cap is the same as Tankers, but the base values are that of Scrappers.

    Ice tankers??

    Curiously I took Ice/Energy for concept reasons.
