If kid ends up helping you out, I'll probably be there with one of my many defenders.

We'll get you that badge.

Oldish thread, but just wanted to say that the debuff procs (lady grey and clouded senses) will have a chance to go off every 10 seconds, but the lockdown proc will only have one chaance. This is because the debuffs and the hold are caused by two different pets, and while the debuff pet's power goes off every 0.2 seconds, the hold pet's power only goes off once every 9999.99 seconds.

Kin/Elec will drain a boss very fast (instantly, in fact), but for AoE Sapping, Elec/Elec Blasters or Elec/Energy Blasters will be the better option.

I use it all the time just as a debuff! Sometimes, on the final mission of the ITF, the sound effect makes people think Rom is rezzing. I don't do it on purpose. Maybe. Teehoo.

Didn't get much in this weekend.

Pistols/Pain Corruptor 1 -> 25
Pistols/Rad Corruptor 1 -> 22
Pistols/Mental Blaster 1 -> 23

And that was it.

Playing FFXIII right now. I can't not play Final Fantasy games, even though I might not like them all.

I played FFXI for like 2 hours once, bleugh. And FFXII I played about 1/4 through, but I really didn't like the combat in that game, so I'm sure I missed a great story there.

I've played and enjoyed most of the rest (and there'll always be a special place in my heart for FF9), including the Tactics(<3) and Crystal Chronicle spin-off games.

Surprisingly... I've never played FF7.

What will become of our love?

I miss you already.

Well I would never tell someone they should skip Slash, but I can't stand that animation.

Then I don't know what to tell you. This just seems like a perception problem you have.

Think about this: The difference in raw damage between Soaring Dragon, a ST attack, and Spin, an AoE attack, is about 14 points of damage at level 50. Meanwhile, Spin can hit 10 foes at once, but costs less endurance and recharges in almost the exact amount of time as Soaring Dragon (Spin is 0.2 seconds longer recharge).

Edit: And if you're asking me, I take Swipe and Strike and skip Slash, because I hate the animation.

Wha...? My Claws Scrapper tears through enemies faster than any other character I have.

What other sets have you tried that Claws seems worse than?

I smell BO. *sniffs armpit* And it's not me!

Recharge times are calculated by dividing their base value by 1 + buff or debuff values.

So an attack that recharges in 10 seconds with 100% +Recharge is: 10 / ( 1.0 + 1 ) or 5 seconds.

An attack that recharges in 10 seconds under a 65% -Recharge is: 10 / ( 1.0 - 0.65 ) or 28.57 seconds.

Is this not how it works? Because that's a heck of a lot more than 33% longer recharge.

Stylish little headers, there.

Traps is still a good set. And Poison Trap is still a good power. I still use it to toebomb, and still feel very safe when I do. I honestly haven't changed my playstyle very much since the bug it had was fixed. I think the major difference was that I dedicated slots in Poison Trap to Hold duration for that initial Hold which only has to pass a 75% tohit roll to take effect.

I still run in and drop Poison Trap, Acid Mortar and then Trip Mine. If something isn't held by Poison Trap, I still have FFG to help me avoid getting hit long enough to finish setting up my Trip Mine, and Acid Mortar holds enemy aggro away from me very well.

My AR/Traps has been the Alpha taker on many all Corruptor SFs, even after the change to Poison Trap. I honestly feel that anyone that thinks Traps is horrendously underpowered after a change to a single power in the set is probably just too upset to enjoy the set anymore. I still enjoy it, and I'm really struggling to decide whether I want to reroll my AR/Traps as DP/Traps (for concept purposes, lolz) or keep both, because I really like Traps.

And if anyone thinks maybe I'm just biased because I like the set, they should see how I feel about Trick Arrows, another set I love.

I miss BadStorm. I know other people had issues with her, but we were cool.
