I haven't used any of the PPPs yet. Maybe some of the Corruptor fans can help?

Issues Affecting Multiple Sets

Quality of Life

  • When an anchored toggle debuff is activated, multiple identical combat messages are displayed, one for each enemy within the debuff's initial area of effect. This affects Darkest Night, Radiation Infection, and Snow Storm. (Any others?)

This issue has been fixed.

Trick Arrows

Balance Issues

  • EMP Arrow deals enhanceable damage against electronic critters, but does not accept damage enhancements or Targeted AoE Damage invented enhancement sets.

Graphic Issues
  • The icon for EMP Arrow suggests it's a stun/disorient, when it's actually a hold.

Traps

Balance Issues

  • Acid Mortar: Damage dealt by Acid Mortar after it despawns (due to damage over time) counts as non-teamed damage, reducing XP and inf rewards.

Traps

Bugs

  • Poison Trap does not slow enemy movement speed. It does not accept invented enhancements from Slow Movement sets, but it accepts generic slow movement enhancements, which do nothing.

So i came back to coh, after almost a year inactivity.
I had my lv50 rad/psy defender parked.
Now i decided to start it up again and try to io him up and true incarnate bring him to a higher level.
I was surprised when i saw how useless a rad defender is these days. seems its all about damage.
Besides an av, there are not many occasions were i can debuff mobs
Placing a debuff takes as long as a fight stand even.


My question: "Is this were they brought defenders to, av fights?"
Or does it get beter when fully slotted with io sets and incarnate +3

Small note: i have all my incarnate slots unlocked and slotted

So,


I came to this amazing conclusion, and have to reply on my own reply.
I putted alot of work in my defender the last weeks, and i have to say, even with all the blasts of power of other at's, my defender rocks.
I got him to 50+2 and even with only 10% of the io sets planned slotted, i feel so powerfull.
I love it.

Dark Blast

Balance Issues

  • Dark Pit is a ranged AoE stun power with a target cap of 10. All ranged AoE mez powers have a target cap of 16.

Traps

Bugs

  • Poison Trap's initial hold rolls a to-hit check, but the power does not accept accuracy enhancements. The Pet Hit Rolls channel incorrectly reports the power as being autohit.

Also, I have just about no experience with Beam Rifle (having only a level 15 Defender with it). If there are any issues with it, please someone let me know.

Thanks for the update!

Rolled my first Rad, and a little surprised nobody's caught this one.

Radiation Emission

Bugs

  • Accelerate Metabolism buffs flight speed, but does not accept flight speed enhancements or flight IO sets.

Electricity Mastery

Bugs

  • Electric Fence, Shocking Bolt, and Power Sink drain a set amount of endurance in PvE. Endurance draining powers are supposed to drain a percentage in PvE.
