  4. Would you post the first build long form, as my gaming/internet comp is not the same one that has mids, thanks

No thanks. No longer worth the time investment.

    I'm not saying that it shouldn't be examined. Perhaps it should. I'm just not going to bother IOing something that's definitely going to be examined. I am way, way too tired of fixing or abandoning carefully-crafted characters that the devs nerf or even buff into something not at all like what I planned. Perhaps if someone could just tell me what powers and which IOs might be STABLE for a couple years, it'll be worth the investment. But obviously that can't happen. At this point, I'm kind of thinking I'll never bother with a top end build again. I'll just keep leveling up alts until I tire of that, and then give up on the game completely.

    Again, not saying not to nerf Shield Charge. Not working as intended, blah blah blah, fine, whatever.

    But I'm just not sure if I can take it any more.
    Or maybe they could actually make something ...oh I don't know...maybe ..umm..work as intended?
  6. like the apology we got when a red name said all of us in the market forum were idiots and the drop rate wasn't nerf'd o'h wait we're STILL waiting for that one, or ya know maybe even admiting that we were right, but I'm not holding my breath.
  7. So, if/when shield charge gets gutted, will it be able to crit? Seems the lesson we need to learn is that if something is good use it, abuse it, just don't post about it.

    Actually, purples have almost nothing to do with being suvivable. Purples are for recharge, recovery/regen, and accuracy. Being able to live through almost anything comes from slotting WP and getting help from your primary with sets like kinetic combat and touch of death, also the defense uniques.
  9. I expect it to have effects similar to DM, an attack that does some damage and tranfers end/hp/acc, and/or several such attacks.
  10. Why not get some sets? It's not like you can pay the pizza guy with INF.
  11. According to a red name whom I forget, "The AH'es will be down all weekend"

    Bug Hunter

    So, assuming you find a bug, who should you tell in order to have the best chance to get said badge?

    Which would be quite the buff for "those that remain true to their side." Which would piss off those that lose access the moment they become vigilante/rogue. Unless you only lose access if you cross all the way over.

    I don't think they're going to allow a brute to choose a PPP pool if they've gone blueside. That would kill the story portion of the PPPs.

    But then they will have to add PPP pools for each hero AT.

    Hell, I dunno. I'm expecting a cluster#*&$.

    That last sentence deserves a rep boost all on it's own.

    It just works better with other shield users who also have Phalanx Fighting and Grant Cover.
    Well yeah, but then EVERYTHING works better with shields

  16. lose conserve power and laser beam eyes, then you could add Focused accuracy with Guasians set for big time defense help, also look at physical perfection.
  17. Actually I agree with the OP, stealth could really use some dev love. I know that I'll never take it, unless I need a set mule and I've allready taken all of the other power that'll take that particular set.

    Mids question

    Hi All, assuming I don't want to edit the mids data base, could some please tell me how far off mids is on Shied Defense for scrappers? I've heard that it gives you 1 extra person in PF, and something about range def being wrong too.

    need a build

    Hi guys, Anyone feel like posting a DM/SD build that uses all 3 pvp uniques, is softcapped, and can run the MG-sm-sl-sm attack chain?, preferably with super jump?
  20. yup, a;though I'd suggest only taking hurdle and bunny hopping where you wish to go. The quickness power in super reflexes also make ninja run a mini super jump.
  21. Pretty much the only use I have for -def is the achilles heel proc.
  22. well, I play mostly on my DM/SD scrapper, I do this because I like to be able to aggro a coule of spawns with little to no worry. I also play this toon because I LIKE to be of help on my team. Where you getting booted because you've slotted for knockback? Or how about having 1 attack on your defender? Or m aybe you have 3 rezzes and slotted them all for recharge?, in fewer wors you should try sucking less.

    extra lvls

    sounds kinda similar to prestige classes from DnD 3.0/3.5.
  24. I noticed it ALOT more with scrappers that don't have a taunt aura Regen and SR to be specific.
