I read these, and not having been in game until after I6 hit, I'm glad I wasn't there. I would have been spoiled by the power scale, and wouldn't be nearly as excited hearing about the Incarnate slots and what they may do for the epicness of the power levels in the future.

Last night I was on my L50 Stone tank in Talos, after taking down Eochai with a PUG, and I spotted a small mob, about 35 levels down from or so, so I went over and hit them with Tremor, and they all just flew everywhere and dropped. That's Epic enough to satisfy me for a few minutes.

I'd like to suggest Saturday, Nov. 5th at ~7PM, so as to stay away from scheduled events... I think Thursday and Friday, people I know have committments. Is this a good time? I'll need help getting more people, and I think Blueside is easier, zone-size-wise and people-willing-to-try-wise.

(I just saw your post Zam - I'm willing to try Redside, but I am dubious that we'll get enough people. Maybe we can start Blueside and switch when we've done a few as proof-of-concept for the group...)

(in case there's any difference) Why would I put the Panacea Proc in Physical Perfection instead of Health? I know it only depends on the proc's level instead of the power's level, just making sure I understand it right.

(for my reference - repeat of Masque's build)

Panacea proc... I have one I got as a gift (!). But it's sitting in the tray of one of my alts. I don't know if I can justify slotting a 3 Billion+ inf enhancement yet. It's the elephant in the tray, to mangle a phrase. As eebil a Marketeer as I am (a minor one compared to SOME people...) I don't know if it's something I can bring myself to do until I have multiple characters past the INF cap...

Wow, Shield walls, Hami-o's (good ones!)... and I thought my build was a little on the high end for anything but my main! This might be a LT goal build, but I'll have to do some serious marketeering to earn the bling.

Is Conserve power and Phys Perfection a little overkill? (Not that there's anything Wrong with that...) I took Salt Crystals because one of the WP guides pointed out it's a useful Giant Taunt generator.

Thanks for the input, very helpful. I did notice one (actually 2) spots for improvement. Currently, the 2 bonuses for 2 pieces of Scirocco's Dervish (regen +10%) are being lost to the Rule of 5. I propose replacing with 2 pieces of Armageddon each (yeah, I know, pricey!) which adds +8% recovery...

So Combustion looks like:
Eradication - Acc/Rech
Eradication - Dam
Eradication - Acc/Dam/Rech
Eradication - Acc/Dam/Rech/End
Armageddon - Dam/Rech/Acc (SUP)
Armageddon - Fire Dmg Proc (33%)

And Fire Sword Circle looks like:
Eradication - Acc/Rech
Eradication - Acc/Dam/Rech
Eradication - Acc/Dam/Rech/End
Eradication - Eng Dmg Proc 20%
Armageddon - Dam (SUP)
Armageddon - Rech/Acc (SUP)


Original Power Enhancement Totals (Pre ED values):
Combustion
Accuracy: 86.4%
Damage: 112.9%
Endurance Reduction: 38.7%
Recharge: 65.2%

Fire Sword Circle
Accuracy: 86.4%
Damage: 112.9%
Endurance Reduction: 38.7%
Recharge: 65.2%


New totals:
Combustion
Accuracy: 91.7%
Damage: 107.6%
Endurance Reduction: 17.5%
Recharge: 91.7%

Fire Sword Circle
Accuracy: 98.3%
Damage: 91.7%
Endurance Reduction: 17.5%
Recharge: 98.3%

Any reason I shouldn't do this?

Also possibly gated to prevent gigantic market manipulation of extremely high cost recipes.

Looking for a little help to set up a WP/Fire here. Thanks to all the people who posted guides in the WP/ section in particular - not many of them are recent, but they were vital to getting started. [Note: The 3 slots in Rest are for Numina Heal, Numina Special +10%/+15%, and Regenerative Tissue +Regen 20%to go in Health post I19; Stamina will get an EndMod... do I need more there? Too many LotG's? ]

The build is solely for PvE, possibly some AE. Is Resurgence more useful than SoW? Too many slots in HPT? Is the 6-slot Tactics worth it for the 2.5% M/R/Aoe def bonus? I feel like my attacks are pretty gimped, and my bonuses are not quite where I'd love them to be... I'd really appreciate some guidance. Thanks for any help.

Yeah, Vidiotmaps map pack shows paths, so that's useful, but I'm hoping we can get a bunch of Victory-ites together and do a serial takedown...

I've never participated in a successful Rikti Ship Takedown - is anyone interested in this?

I understand that it's a litle 'niche-y'... but even if it were able to split and customize separate windows on a single screen, it would help in the graphical experience, so I could 'see' more of the gameworld unobstructed, while still having access to all that important 'data' I depend on (like what Zombieman said). Hopefully it wouldn't be unfathomably complex...

I don’t know if this has been suggested, but I’m giving it a shot –

Would it be possible to provide support for a 2-screen CoX setup, where one screen can be dedicated to what I’ll call ‘operations’ (ie, mostly things like chat windows, notifications, recipes, salvage, enhancements, etc.) and the other screen would be “action” (ie, game, target, power trays, a couple of chat windows). It should be flexible, so people can put whatever they prefer on whatever screen they like.

I’d like to use 2 screens during play, but I don’t want my character split in half, and my screens may not match exactly.

If only the writers of Empire would be allowed to write the Thrawn trilogy, or the Blasck Fleet Crisis... all would be right with the world.

Sorry to hear, Viv, let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

In the immortal words of a great mind... Fire BAD!

"It's not really a rule... more of a... guideline."

Great guide to speeding up your Stoner. I used some, but not all, the suggested slotting reccs, and I'm happy with a tank that doesn't need to be switching all the time.

What part of the joke did I miss - how does this relate to Victory server?
