It has enough global recharge to pretty much have conserve power up half the time and light form the other half- Both provide extra recovery.

Stealth will be run in combat. There's also the option of the cardiac alpha ability.

Ohh right. I forgot the mission exemped automatically. Yeah... You are correct.

I just got in, I can get online in a few minutes to do this.

Hahaha.

I think the load screen states "Those who don't choose to use the IO system will not be placed at a disadvantage."

Or something to that degree..



And sure, compared to other SO users and the NPC's, they won't be disadvantaged.

Us IO users will just be... Advantaged.

Myself, Stone, and AIB are all on Protector. We will be running all Kheldian TF's every Friday night.

Tonight after we ran that epic mission up there in Stone's video, we did an all Kheldian blueside respec trial (For which I brought my Peacebringer, Luminarious. In the video, I was on my Warshade, Septipheran.)

edit: By the way, the videos that stone posted are of a 54x8 AE mission. The arc ID is provided in his video description.

Myself, Stone, AIB, and one other were on our level 50 Warshades. We had others with us also.

Thanks Microcosm. I sent in the bug report earlier today.

Sure they can. It's called Vengeance.

Don't forget human formers can run tough

Oh, don't get me wrong, I'll take whatever I can get. If all we end up with is instant uninterruptable form shifts I would be happy with just that.. I was just speaking ideally, not necessarily realistically.

I would actually prefer the resistance debuff, because it would not only compensate for the damage scale issue but also make us more useful in team vs. AV fights.

It would compensate for our damage scales being far below other damage dealing AT's, and having the same damage cap as defenders (wtf?) in my opinion.

I was talking about debuffing enemies' resistance, not the warshades resistance to resistance debuffs

..Say that three times fast...

I prefer leading with eclipse, it is probably the one cautious thing about my playstyle. Inky aspect was worked in after my last respec and it has been a godsend for me... aspect, emanation, and unchain essence together is not even fair. I am confident that I can solo any enemy group in the game on +4x8 with 3 layers of control paired with capped resistance to all and 300% damage (not to mention my ~30% s/l and ~25% melee defense coming in handy.)

The reason the KB on Nova blasts doesn't bother me is that the Dark Nova can fly. If I'm fighting a big group and not picking off stragglers, I just blast from overhead and they don't really tend to go too far.

That idea about Quasar is a good one, thanks for that... I will be sure to test it out next chance I get.

Oh I agree with this, I didn't mean to imply otherwise... I was referring to perma LFas AIB earlier said he would like it to function (which I agree with.)


See AIB's post that I just quoted- I don't think that would be the case. Perma LF would not provide enough resistance on its' own to reach the resistance cap-- Human formers would need shield toggles and tri/bi formers would need to be in Dwarf. It would work similarly to Eclipse- Nothing "out of the box," you'd have to build up recharge to reach that point.

As for tanks, PB's don't have a taunt aura and the dwarf taunt is not enough to hold aggro in tank fashion so it wouldn't negate tanks in any way seeing as that is the primary function of tanking.

I also don't think it would be overpowered to add a resistance debuff to eclipse. heck, Peacebringer attacks do -defense.

Sure, when the rare awesome Warshade comes by (I'm assuming many of us here fit that bill, but the forum dwelling Kheldians are in the minority) we are able to do crazy damage... But do you really think that we kill as fast as some top notch, no expenses barred brutes or even scrappers? According to Wiki, our Damage scales are not on par with other damage dealing AT's. Factor into that the fact that we have the same Damage cap as support class characters, and I see nothing overpowered about giving Eclipse a resistance Debuff...

If anything, we should be doing more damage than brutes and scrappers (as should blasters) as we incur a higher risk and require a much higher skill level to play correctly (no running toggles and spamming our attack keys for us.)

In regards to this, I could absolutely see the Dev's giving PB's an exact clone of Rage except making it a little underpowered... Heck, a majority of PB powers are already the underpowered clones of powers from other sets.

At first I was thinking that it would be unbalanced to allow perma, crashless LF because of the fact that Eclipse is a situational power (granted it's a pretty easy situation to find yourself in) but now I'm thinking differently...

Even if with perma LF PB's could always be at 85% resistance under any situation, they would still do less damage than Warshades.

They would also perform better against single hard targets (AV's) than Warshades. In that sense, it would be unbalanced, but I have a solution for that...

If LF could be made crashless and perma, Eclipse should get a resistance debuff incorporated. I know Eclipse is already super awesome and this might be overkill, but it would make Warshades more powerful against AV's when there are no enemies around.

Adding a resistance debuff to Eclipse would also make the Warshade's +4x8 steamroll even easier, but I'm ok with that. It would be a good way for the WS to be on par with other high damage, spawn melting sets... Afterall, Shades are probably one of if not the hardest AT's to play (correctly,) so I don't think it would be unbalanced to add more payoff to doing it right (especially considering the fact that most people don't do it right, due to the previously mentioned difficulty in doing so..)

You should add consecutive MoBAF, MoLAM, and MoKeyes to Laylapalooza
