I ended up getting my Mace/Invuln Broot from 11 up to 27 (just shy of Invinc) and my Ninjas/Dark MM from 23 to 29 (Woo Hoo Oni!). I also got my Thugs/Pain a couple levels up to 38.

2xp doesn't stop until maintenance in the morning, so don't worry about losing that.

I can't even log in now, never mind get to the server screen.

I like this thread. It makes it soo much easier to adblock these things when I don't have to go searching for them.


Edit: And my first piece of bad rep. Anon will have to forgive me for using a slow connection. How dare I block their massive images in order to browse the forums at a decent speed.

Because I worked all weekend, 2xp is just starting for me. I plan on playing as late into the evening as I can.

Howling Twilight and Dark Servant also don't scourge, while Voltaic Sentinal does.

Anyone else hate one line posts followed by gigantic images? I think it should be a requirement of allowing sig images that the user be required to write at least 10 lines of intelligent conversation with every post they make.

Image enabled signatures are evil and should be disabled.

My knee jerk reaction was "URK! *Goes to vomit*"

But after changing the skin to villain, my opinion is now one of indifferance.

Sonic/Elec is painful solo.

Edit: Defenderwise, that is.

I assure you it does work the way I have described. If it does not, then it's a bug.

Dozens and dozens of vines, each fueling the Healer's Twilight Grasp.

This is the updated version of my guide. It takes into account the changes that Issue 14 brings to Carrion Creepers. Also, since the Carrion Creeper pets are the same for Dominators and Controllers this guide is accurate for both achetypes.


This guide attempts to explain just about everything about the complicated series of pets and psuedopets that make up one of the most unique (and convoluted) powers in the game. It also explains some quirks with the power that have a large impact on the suggested slotting.

CC's mechanics can be a bit overwhelming, so if you just want the end result read the yellow bit about halfway down. If you have questions post them here and I'll do my best to answer them.



Carrion Creeper Patch, the original summon
The power that the player uses (called Carrion Creepers) summons an entity called Carrion Creeper Patch. This Patch has several powers of it's own. It is also mobile and will follow you around (though the 'bramble' graphic doesn't move). The Patch is invisible, and has a snare power called Bramble, a second pet summon called Carrion Creepers (we'll call it Carrion Creepers2 or just CC2), and a power called Vines. Interesting side-note: Even though the Carrion Patch is invisible, it still makes ripples in water. So you can summon it and go for a swim, you'll 'see' the pet following you around.

Bramble
The Bramble power is an autohit AoE snare power. It is always on, and every 0.2s it will apply -fly, -runspeed, -maxrunspeed, and -jumpheight over a 20ft area.

Carrion Creepers 2
CC2 summons Carrion Creeper Patch2 every ten seconds, at every enemy corpse in range. CCP2 is a short lived pet whose only purpose is to attack with an AoE version of Entangle and then self-destruct silently. This AoE Entangle applies a Mag4 Immob to an 8ft area, deals a decent amount of Lethal and Smashing damage, and prevents flight and knockback on the targets. Creeper Entangle has a max target cap of 5 and a base accuracy of 1.0.

Vines
The Vines power has a 50% chance of summoning a Carrion Vine every ten seconds for every living enemy (PC or NPC) in range. These are the vines we know and love and they are the most visible part of the power. Each Vine lasts for 15s and has a ranged Vine Thorns attack and a melee Vine Smash attack. Both the attacks applie a small recharge slow, a movement snare, and a -fly effect. The melee Vine Smash also has a guaranteed knockdown. Both attacks have an accuracy of 1.0.

Slotting Suggestions:
As before i14, Recharge is the most important aspect and if you can only spare three slots, three Recharge SOs is the absolute minimum you should accept in this power. Ideally, you have 6 slots in Creepers. Within those 6 slots you have a lot of freedom, and that means there are a lot of good ways to slot it.

My suggested slotting is:
~40% Accuracy
95% Recharge
95% Damage
and as many damage procs as you can cram in. It no longer matters what sets you choose to use, so go for the cheapest one.

I know BU takes 1.32 sec to cast so leaves 8.68 seconds of buff

[/ QUOTE ]

Power effects generally don't occur until the activation time is finished. So BU has a 1.32s cast, and a 10s buff time.

Basically, my questions are these:
[list]
* Webnade, slot or not?
* Toss Triage, or keep it?
* Challenge or Provoke?
* Hasten?
* Stamina?
* Mu or Mace?
* Tips/Tricks?

Hello Mastermind forum. I've decided to get some proper IOs into my Bots/Traps as he approaches 50 (Level 49 now). Problem is, I'm not certain what to get. Oh, I know the essentials (3 pets, 2 upgrades, Mortar, FF Gen, Poison Trap, Seekers, Aid Other/Self) I'm just uncertain what the best way to build an unkillable juggernaut of destruction is.

Should I go all defense? Or +Hp and Regen? Should I go Scirroco for the -KB immob, or Scorpion for the +Def shield? Should I grab stamina or Hasten? I'd like to get two of the Pulse Rifle attacks just for theme, as well as Detonator too.

Any suggestions or builds?

Yes.

Slotted for Hold, VG can stack up to ~mag 23 on a single target, for it's entire duration.

The actually hold portion of VG also has a 1.4 Acc mod, so it doesn't even need to be slotted for accuracy.

/Macro Bow "petcom <em fancybow>"

That will set up a macro. When you click the macro, the targeted pet will do the fancybow emote. Note that pet emotes were broken for a while, and though they should be fixed, a few issues maybe have slipped through.
