Questions about forms and set bonues

I'm looking at finnishing up IOing with my PB and have a few questions....mostly very similar questions...

I mostly interested in being in nova and dwarf more than human.

If I have Luck of the gambler global recharge in powers like combat flight/manuevers/other 'human form powers' do i get the 7.5& recharge bonus in nova/dwarf?

If I have the performance shifter +end in stamina, do I get that in nova/dwarf?

If I have the regen tissue +regen, numinas +regen.recovery, etc in health do I get that in nova/dwarf?

If I have the impervium Psi resist, Aegis status resist, steadfast protect etc in human powers, do I get that in nova/dwarf?

Do I get set bonues from things in human powers (eg 2 x blessing of the zephry in combat flight) do I get that in nova/dwarf?

Do I get the set bonues from things slotted in nova or dwarf in the other forms and human (eg +10% recharge from a purple set)

Is the answer the same for all these cases, and if not can you please tell me why?

Some other slotting questions:

Whats good for Bright nova - I was thinking 2 x end mod, 3 x to hit buff, is it worth 6 slotting and putting another end mod in or something else? Or is it a waste to slot mush at all for the form power themselves? Is the performance shifter +end worthwhile in there?

Same question for White dwarf, have 3 x resist damage atm with 2 x end mod and 1x leap.


I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.

Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.

So sad to be ending ):

I'll take a stab.

In order asked...

Yes.

No.

Yes (but only for a short while).

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

No.

The rules on IO's and Khelds are so helter skelter, with so many exceptions and adendums it would take me forever to explain all of it.

Many people do infact slot endurance reduction and endurance mods on the forms and believe it works wonderfully. I simply do not for the simple reason that endurance reduction only reduces the endurance cost of running the forms toggle and does nothing at all for any powers used in the forms, and endurance mods add such a small amount of endurance recovery you would save more endurance by simply adding a single endurance reduction to ONE of the attack powers than you would get from a single endurance mod to boost your endurance recovery.

Conversly most people believe the use of Gaussiens chance for build up proc to be rather worthless due to its small boost to overall damage in squid form (around 2.5% extra damage applied to only the damage done in squid form). I personaly like the occassional damage spikes it provides as well as the overall damage increase spead over the life of the character.

Most posters and I do agree on two points though.

The first being that additional hit bonus is a poor use of slots due to the rather low base to hit bonus provided by the base power.

The second being that on both forms the Performance Shifter +Endurance proc is invaluable for it's prolonged improvement to almost every builds performance.

Good luck.


If you PL'd to 50 just to get an "epic" thinking you'd be �ber, you're going to be sorely disappointed with the HEATs, because the VEATs were designed so that anyone with one good finger and a braincell can rock the toggles.
