Buffs
Quote:
Accuracy is beneficial for any Archetype that makes to hit rolls against the enemy. Every attack that misses is Endurance wasted, and time lost waiting for the power to recharge to try again.
Stupid question, but I think I have it figured out. Buffs enhance certain things, like accuracy, damage, defense, resistance and so on. Debuffs do the opposite, make it harder for the enemy.
Here's my question, why do some tank sets allow for Buffs to accuracy? And how beneficial is it really for a tank to do this. I am talking about IO slotting specifically. |
And the IO Sets are independent of Archetypes. A Resist Damage set can be used by any AT that has access to a power that provides Damage Resistance, which, thanks to Power Pools, is all of them.
New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Why wouldn't you slot for accuracy? You want your attacks to hit right?
Edit: Are you talking about IO bonuses... IE slot 4 IOs for an acc bonus? I normally don't seek these bonuses, but they are nice if they happen to coincide with what I am slotting.
Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

Are you perhaps talking Build Up or Build Up clones in Tanker secondaries? In that case, their purpose is a damage self buff (which unfortunately cannot be enhanced), and I generally ignore the accuracy buff, only slotting for recharge reduction.
I'm the same way. I won't sneer at the accuracy bonuses, but they're rarely something I'm after, just something good to get on the way.
Dec out.
