Good reference, but I thought ... aren't HOs bugged/coded in such a way that tohit/def buff enhancers and tohit/def debuff enhancers are interchangeable? So that, for instance, you can put a Cytoskeleton into Radiation Infection on the basis of it taking endurance reducers and then the "buff" effect actually enhances the debuffs of the powers? Or did that get fixed? Or did I get that whole thing wrong?
Your Point?
Some are set up that way, and posted in the guide that they work - but I want to have the guide mostly set so that people don't have to respec out of things later when/if that gets fixed. I consider it a bug, and knowingly using a Bug to your benefit isn't something I want in a Guide.

"The tip of a shoelace is called an aglet, its true purpose is sinister." The Question
Well my point is, your guide is not as useful as it could have been. It doesn't reflect what actually works, even with disclaimers that they may change sometime. (Though you DID make a comment like that about Lysosomes and Parry, so right there you're not being consistent with it.)
My impression from what the devs have said is changing those results is pretty impossible without recoding the whole engine so I don't think it's a bug in the usual sense of having an expectation to change soon. There are a few things in there that folks might not think of - for instance Microfilament in Swift boosting both Run and Fly speed - but beyond that, most things are pretty straightforward. I appreciate you put a lot of work into this, but I think it could be better.

glad you brought that up, I need to rememeber that as I'd be happy to slot with that in mind now and respec em out later...
great guide btw
Presumably a Golgi would enhance the heal of Spectral Wounds and Phantom Army (although that wouldn't be very useful).

My comments
<ul type="square">Centriole Exposure - Damage and Range:[/list]Also works as a Damage [u]Resistance[u] buff and Range. Very useful in powers like Increase Density or the Sonic Resonance shields.
<ul type="square">Microfilament Exposure Travel Speed Increase (Run, Fly, and Jump) plus Endurance
-Defender/Controller - Kinetic - Siphon Speed (bonus -speed/recharge debuff on opponent)[/list]Is this confirmed? The little pop-up window in-game freaks out and shows me a bunch of slow numbers. If this is true, wouldnt it work in any slow power? Things like Snow Storm would benefit greatly from this.
<ul type="square">Enzyme Exposure - Increase ToHit and Defense Debuffs, and Endurance Reduction:
Cytoskeleton Exposure - Increase ToHit and Defense Buffs, and Endurance Reduction:[/list]A quick note on these two just as damage and damage resistance are interchangeable, so are these two HOs. But while a Cyto only does a 20% defense adjustment, the Enzyme does a 33.3% defense adjustment (I think both do 33.3% ToHit adjustments). Im not sure if the game mechanics allow for the full 33.3% defense, but its definitely better than a Cyto.
<ul type="square">Membrane Exposure - Increase ToHit and Defense Buffs, and Increase Attack Rate:
-All - Power Pools - Leadership - Vengeance (uses all 3? Though I know you can't put Recharge reducers in it normally, so it probably just uses the first 2 parts)[/list]I cant say Ive seen it, but Ive heard from reliable people that Membranes do increase the recharge of Vengeance.
There are quite a few powers that display a slow boost in error; I can't remember off the top of my head if the accuracy or the recharge enhancement value gets copied into slow as well. That aside though, if Microfilament DID affect speed debuffs (and following this logic it should) you could put it in powers like Lingering Radiation, Tar Patch; or almost any gravity hold as they all have a slow effect -- Crushing Field would benefit from it especially. I've got a micro I haven't slotted. If I have time, I'll copy to test and experiment.
My WS shows lots of slow enhancement in the tool tips that should be recharge. Since it does not display recharge at all, I'm assuming this is a text error, not an actual enhancement of slows. It could be though, I haven't tested.
Peroxisome Exposure & Endoplasm Exposure
Scrapper/Stalker Spines Impale
I have a question... would a Microfilament work in Sprint?
A Micro would work in sprint; it wouldn't reduce end but it would give a buff to both run and fly. However, it'd be a small one because sprint doesn't give a very big boost in the first place.
I went on test and removed a recharge SO from Lingering Radiation. Currently, the recharge amount lists itself as a Slow %. I put in the microfilament and the old Slow % went down, but new entries that also listed Slow 33% appeared.
I then did the same thing with Crushing Field; I had 2 accuracy and 1 endurance reduction SO. I replaced an accuracy with a Micro and the new screen indicated that it would get another +33% end reduction; -33% accuracy; and +33% Slow and +33% Slow and +33% Slow (maybe 3 entries for run/fly/jump?).
Doing some simple observations - basically kiting a Warhulk around the parking lot next to the PI ferry - it looked like it did increase the slow effect of those two powers by a noticeable amount. Someone else should do some testing to be sure but ... based on this, I think a Microfilament is usable in all 4 of Gravity Control's holds and immobilizes; Radiation's Lingering Radiation and probably accelerate metabolism (though again, a run/fly speed buff there is pretty minimal); and Dark Miasma's Tar Patch.

You mean swift, not sprint. It is usable in Sprint too, of course, but that gives a +run and +jump buff while also reducing end cost.

There are many things that seem 'obvious' to you, but to others it is not. I see people in the Hive all the time, asking "What can be used where" "Where can I use This?". Based on that, I decided to put together this list.
I will Not Post Bug Exploits. Incorrect Usage of the HO's are Bug Exploits, in my opinion. Do I mention them? Yes, but I'm not going to go out of my way to list every use of something that should NOT in fact beused that way.
Don't like it? By all means, don't use it. Your 'Feedback' isn't helpful, so it's not wanted. Bye Bye now.

Since WHEN is this true? Damage Enhancers of ALL typpes would be used that way, then. Ribo's would work in those shields, but there is NO way I'm adding this information.

[/ QUOTE ]
I have received no confirmation. I know that Mez enhancers do not affect Slows. It's possible that the Movement enhancers do, but I'm not adding them without testing. Siphon speed is accurate - it can use both Run Speen enhancers and End reducers, so can use both effects. Whether it boosts the Slow effects I can't say.

I understand if you feel these are cheats and don't want to include them, but they do work. IF you could add a Damage enhancement to a shield, you'd get the same results. The HO's work because the Range portion is an acceptable SO for them.

Siphon Speed does not accept Run Speed enhancements (despite what Sherk's hero builder may say). It only accepts Acc, EndRdx, Recharge, Range, and Slow. Your list implies it works as a slow, but as you say, "'Hearing' something is not 'Testing' it."

Tested it yesterday and it's true, but I would think that you'd see this as an exploit since it's not supposed to accept recharge enhancements.
It may be a side benefit - but Vengeance still uses the other portions of the HO, so it gets listed.
Maybe I'll let this thread die, and start a new thread without all this ungrateful yammering in it.
People - if you don't like the Guide? Don't Frakkin Post, and don't frakkin read it. Just ignore it.

"The tip of a shoelace is called an aglet, its true purpose is sinister." The Question
Honestly I was trying to help. I'll keep my ungrateful yammering out of your next post.
Now in a New, Shorter Thread, by Request (Hi Stargeek!).
Some notes to keep in mind:
-This is a 'What You Can Slot Where' Guide, not a 'You Should Slot This Way' Guide. I will note if something is not recommended, but as always, it is Your Choice.
-If you have any Questions, Suggestions, etc, post them.. but ONLY post your actual experience, not "I hear that ..."
-Please - keep the slotting debates to a minimum. This is not the place. If it *CAN* be slotted, even to minor effect, it can be on the list.
Now, on to the List:
Uplink_OoT did a great job a while back, compiling a list of Hamidon Enhancements. What I'd like to do is put together a list of which powers the more 'Exotic' HO's can help. I want to be able to tell people "'X' HO affects these powers ...". Help fill in the list with whatever you can.
Easy ones:
Nucleolus Exposure - Damage and Accuracy:
-Too many to list. If you dont know what can use this, you shouldnt have bought the account. :-)
Centriole Exposure - Damage and Range:
-See above. (Note - the range portion of some melee attacks cannot be increased, even though they may affect a larger than normal range. Be sure the power normally accepts Range + Damage enhancements before slotting this)
Ribosome Exposure - Increase Damage Resistance and Endurance Reduction:
-All Power Pools Tough
-APP Blaster Cold Mastery Frozen Armor
-APP - Blaster - Electrical Mastery Charged Armor
-APP - Blaster - Force Mastery - Temporary Invulnerability, Force of Nature
-APP - Blaster - Flame Mastery Fire Shield
-APP - Controller - Fire Mastery Fire Shield
-APP Controller Ice Mastery - Frozen Armor (Just +Resist to Cold, not preferred slotting)
-APP Controller Primal Forces Mastery - Temp Invul
-APP Controller Psionic Mastery - Mind over Body
-APP Defender Dark Mastery Dark Embrace
-APP Defender Electricity Mastery - Charged Armor
-APP Defender Power Mastery - Temp Invul
-APP Defender Psychic Mastery Mind over Body
-Defender/Controller - Kinetics - Increase Density
-Defender/Controller - Sonic Resonance - Sonic Barrier, Sonic Haven, Sonic Dispersion
-Defender/Controller - Storm - Steamy Mist
-Defender Dark - Shadowfall
-Peacebringer - Luminous Aura - Shining Shield, Thermal Shield, Quantum Shield, White Dwarf (does not cost much End, might be a waste), Light Form
-Scrapper Dark Armor Murky Cloud, Obsidian Shield, Dark Embrace
-Tank/Scrapper Invulnerability Temporary Invulnerability, Unyielding, Unstoppable
-Tank Stone Armor Brimstone Armor, Granite Armor
-Warshade Secondary Gravity Shield, Twilight Shield, Penumbral Shield, Umbral Aura, Black Dwarf (does not cost much End, might be a waste)
Microfilament Exposure Travel Speed Increase (Run, Fly, and Jump) plus Endurance Reduction:
-All - Power Pools - Hover (Takes minimal end), Flight, Group Flight
-All - Power Pools - Speed, Super Speed
-All - Power Pools - Leaping, Combat Jump (Takes minimal End), Super Leap
-Defender/Controller - Kinetic - Speed Boost
-Defender/Controller - Kinetic Inertial Reduction
-Defender/Controller - Kinetic - Siphon Speed (bonus -speed/recharge debuff on opponent)
-Peacebringer White Dwarf (Probably not the best place to put these, Dwarf has something akin to Combat Jumping) , Quantum Flight (There are reports that Q-Fly is already at the Fly Speed cap, in which case this enhancement would be useless) , Nova, Group Energy Flight
-Peacebringer Inherent powers - Energy Flight, Combat Flight
-Scrapper Super Reflexes Elude Not optimal slotting, but can use this.
-Warshade Primary - Umbral Blast - Dark Nova (Probably not worth slotting Fly)
-Warshade Secondary Black Dwarf (Probably not worth slotting for this)
-There is a Debate as to whether you should slot these into Fitness -> Swift or Scrapper-> Super Reflexes-> Quickness. If you use Fly, you might benefit from Slotting these here, as they can serve as both Run Speed AND Fly Speed enhancers.

Removed:
Removed HOs with + ACC from -Defender/Control - Storm Hurricane and -Defender/Control - Storm Tornado (Powers are Autohit in PvE, so do not need accuracy. Are they Autohit in PvP? Do I need to put them back in as PvP slotting only?)
(Removed from Enzyme) -Controller - Illusion Control Spectral Terror (Spectral Terror does not take ToHit Debuff or Defense Debuff enhancements.)
