what does every one think of a Spines/FA AE fire ambush farmer?
-
Ill take some popcorn. For what its worth tho, scrappers are capped at 2400 hp and tanks are 3400. I think thats fair. Claws FTW!
-
Your right, I checked it on coh wiki. I was only guessing sorry for the faulse info and thankyou for the correction
-
My intention isnt to argue with you about this, but im pretty sure set bonus's aren't reduced they are cancelled out while being exempt due to the fact you loose the slots, just like you lose powers. I know the OP is using SO's but I assumed that since set bonuses get cancelled wouldnt the SO buff? Im probably wrong but thats what happens to me.
-
There are 2 possible issues here.
1. Are you both taunting? And if your are are either slotted for acc or taunt
2. The accuracy of your taunt aura. Your blazing aura might be missing more frequently with you being exempted. Remeber you lose any slots you have put on blazing aura post lvl 18 and up. -
id just be really happy with knock back down graded to knock down. That would make it peachy
-
im not sure if someone has asked this but, does any one know if there is any relation between kheld's and rikti? Surely they crossed paths at one point... Or at least rikti and nictus? Both evil and wanting to conqure....

Oh, and if you want to check to see if a build has set bonuses over the "Rule of 5", go to Windows -> "Sets and Bonuses" in Mids'. Excess bonuses will be highlighted in red.[/QUOTE]
I didnt know that thanks for the tip finduilas

Yep id say u did. Also may I mention??? That last night my ela/ss was getting 1055 dpa with knockout blow on domonique (av) there was a sonic defender on the team and let me tell you I was smashing some skull!

If u do not know where to look for it here is the link http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=261846, also untold I see that u updated it the last time I looked at them it was still pre i19. ( I guess I should check the others out as well). -
Completely up to you and how you slot your tank? I went cardiac on mine mainly because I wanted to researve power sink for rage crashes and also use it more tactfully more than nessecary. I would maybe consider spiritual for recharge and healing buff. It will get energize up at 1000+ and closer to perma
ELA FOR THE WIN WOOO HOOO

The devs put a 5 set bonus limit on all IO sets. So if you can only slot for 5% recharge bonus 5 times and still get that bonus. If you slot the same size bonus six times the 6th bonus wont get added to the 1st 5 bonuses. It means you need to slot 5x5%, 5x6.5% and so forth. Also LSK was mentioning defence. Your no where near the defnce softcap. What you thought he ment was 70% resistance which is different. I suggest you read my guide "softcapping electric armor" there is some good info in there about the difference about def and resistance.
LSK also mentioned that you didnt have power sink. I highly advise you take this power. It will drain endurance of up to 10 foes and restore your own. Its a great tool to deal with mass mobs of aggro on your tank
-
Power surge is better than unstoppable. Dont run away, run towards... U let of a e.m.p when it crashes. Also you do know that your capable of softcapping your s/l/e/ne defences at that cost. I prefer to softcap defense rather than perma haste and energize. The hard capped energy resist is nice, but still not enough to mitigate preatorians. I was running maria jenkins arc at x4 lvls last night and I was still getting my green bar dropped by 25%. Im about 8 seconds from perma but its enough with softcapped def.
-
No worries mate, I wasnt phased. I hope I helped?
-
okay i played with your build alittle bit got you softcapped to S/L, an extra 10 seconds recharge on energize and 2 extra attacks for the sweep combo and empowerment combo. i cost you about 30 hp (sorry) but everyhting else is pretty much the same

for some reason your data link wont let me load your build onto mids? can you post a chunk? At first glance tho i would suggest lose 2 slots on taunt and add them to energize. drop the numinas in energize for Doctored wounds. that will get you some better recharge. Thats about all i can see without the actual stats from mids
-
Hey guys, sorry I dont check back here often if you can shoot me a PM in future ill be able to help quicker.
As for WM ther are some great combos there for you to play with. Depending on your goals id probably look at softcapping just S/L and work on recharge and hp from there. You will have some awesome mitigation going with your Knock back and end drain.
As for claws/ela ill have to have a look at mids wen I home. Im sure it would be relative to my builds, you have a aoe and ranged attack similar to super strength. Try and get 45% def s/l and recharge to 130% that will put you in good range for regular end drain and energize. Also maybe take another aoe from your epics fireball or get soul mastery for -acc. If you get the -acc proc in interface it will stack well and help against defense debuff -
Thanks for the reply, im at work and seem to think up all my character concepts here (where I dont have mids) well since WP brutes cant get close to a tank I wont bother, I got plenty of tanks and just wanted to see if I could a brute rolling for the extra dps they provide, but I prefer the survivability side of things so ill leave it for my scrappers
-
Can a WP brute get the same hp results as a tank? I know that tanks have a higher base value, just wondering if I can still get 3000+ hp on a WP brute

Quote:soft-def wont make much difference in PvP, unfortunatly the tohit and acc of powers from other plyers pretty much raises the softcap to somthing similar to Lord Recluse in the STF, which is why SR is a (not very good choice for PvP unless you can get perma Elude.Originally Posted by Syntax42
Not many people who PvP will read your post here. I suggest posting it on the PvP forum as well.
The biggest thing I see is that you didn't try to increase your defense at all. I don't know a lot about PvP, so I don't know if defense is worth slotting for.
I havnt done any PvP since i16 so i have no idea on how much incarnate affects PvP, but i would try and sneak in aid self. Some of my toughest battles was FM/WP brute with aid self. Actually my Claw/regen which was very hard to kill in 1vs1 only really ever dies from a FM/WP with aid self. If you can get that and slot it with at least 2 interupt reductions it will increase your survivability by double.
Also remember having anything over 120% recharge bonus is wasted aswell, you get capped at 120% in a PvP zone. maybe look at sacraficing some recharge to get that heal in? All in all its prett solid for PvP and im a little bit rusty to make any alterations due to the fact i havnt PvP'd in a long time... i hear Kinetic Melee is pretty destructive in there? -
1. You found/created a power suit that has given you god like stregnth and defends against harm
2. You are part of some crazed scientists plan to try and create a symbionic machine
3. All though you were born with the power to harness (insert secondary here) you realized your body was still vunrable to harm and so seeked special armor that could help you harness your power better.
4. by using magic you were able to ibune simple steel into a special power suit, giving you tremdouse power....
5. You come from an alien race that are techno-biorganisms (transformer style) although you look like machine you still have human instincts
I think there are ways to make it work, just like stone? -
please explain how Tech Armor can be more origin based than Stone Armor?

Quote:And stone armor isnt?Originally Posted by Auroxis
Too origin specific IMO.

Yes sorry im at work and cant open ur build. I have a ela/db build that has all attacks and is softcapped to the 4 typed defenses. Com to think of it I should maybe add that to the post ill post you the build once I get home with all the attacks in it. Still tho I wouldnt worry about def on E/NE unless you really really really want it. I need to write a guide on ela's mitigation tools which will explain how you can escape that damage type/s without focusing on defense for survivability.
Bah look at me rambling on like nut job. Ill be sure to post within 3 or so hours
-
A ela naturally has high resistance and cant really be gimped if you take all your toggles plus tough. 3slot them with basic IO's and your on very high res. I have a guide incorporating defense in my signature. There is a ela/db build there I posted as well. You can get some ideas there to get your smashing and lethal defense to softcap.
