Is there anyone who's NOT changing a character for inherent Fitness?

I was thinking about how I would rebuild my main toon (the avatar girl) to compensate for inherent Fitness. I thought of what I could add, what I could tweak and whatnot...

But I didn't like anything I came up with. The truth is, I like her just the way she is and I'm most likely not going to respec her for inherent Fitness. I have yet to consider my other toons, but Pinky is going to remain as-is. Does anybody else have a character who isn't in line for the IF respec rebuild?

Sure, any of my toons that don't currently have Fitness won't get any major changes. A Numi Unique in Health, basic IOs in Stamina, Swift and Hurdle and call it a day.

Probably just the ones I don't play very often.

I have a lot of characters that will be getting situational powers. Such as my Claws/Regen getting the rez, and my Sonic/Devices getting Shockwave.

A couple others will be getting travel powers I skipped in favor of other things. It doesn't really matter to me how fast I can get to the mission, I'd rather perform well once inside. So a few of them will bet getting SS or SJ.

I have many characters in the 1-30 range that have never taken Fitness, so they'll just put a couple enhancements in there and be good to go.

Pretty much all of mine will be taking advantage of inherent fitness. I've already done builds for my 70 odd characters. Very few of them won't actually need respecing and thats because they are really low level.

If your mouse has greater processing power than your gfx card, the answer is yes.

Same.

My warshades, stalkers and most masterminds never took Fitness and ever since the news broke I haven't been taking Fitness on my new characters.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

I'm only planning on Respec'ing 1 character and that has less to do with Fitness going inherent and more to do with trying to improve his performance overall. My thoughts are I didn't need those other 3 powers to level up my characters to begin with so I don't see where they will make a difference now.

I have one... He was without fitness already So he gets the fitness extra... I don't need to change him at all!

I had forgotten about my WS, she won't need respecing as she doesn't use Fitness at the moment anyway. But am loving the fact it will now work in forms as I always find my Dwarf form to be a bit of an edurance hog.

My two lowest level characters (Praetorians at 9 and 13) won't need respecs, but all the rest will need at least one respec. A few might get a respec on a second build.

I'm not sure what powers I'd give my Masterminds in the place of Fitness, so those might sit while I ponder it.

EDIT: To those saying "I never had Fitness, so I get it free" or "I'm low enough I don't need to respec", you will need to respec if you want Inherent Fitness. You gain it at level 2, and if you're over level 2, you don't get a change until you respec.

Actually MOST of my characters aren't going to be respeced to account for this change for all sorts of reasons.
I'm probably only going to worry about it on my few most played / main characters.

Is this off test? Because offical word from the devs was that any toon without it will get it automatically, any toon with it will have to respec to get it as inherent.

Given that I just counted I have 101 characters on Union alone plus another 50-odd spread around EU and US severs; yes, no and sort-of.

Yes - a lot of characters I made went for my own style of even-con building: Powers up to level 10, 12 and 14 for travel power and then 16-20 fitness leaving the rest of the choices for whatever I wanted. A lot of them did this becuase I wanted them to be playable without downtime and it works quite well for my playstyle of -1 -> 0 con enemies. I've already respec'd several that I don't play as often. This includes my grav/psi dom who'd had fitness respec'd in.

No - Some characters I have are either so low they have yet to choose fitness, are a regen/willpower or are my concept characters who went without like my empath and my MM's main build as well as my all-natural archer who doesn't have a travel power either. They'll get it as a bonus and keep their 'classic' builds.

Sort-of - My main badger has been built to play in a way I've got used to and has set bonuses which are right for me. So I'll just be respecing his main build to swap pool-fitness for the medicine pool so it'll give him a rez and healing power and either aid-self or stimulant so he can get peeps out of a mez Dispersion Bubble doesn't protect against.


Since I have so many I'll only be respeccing them as and when I get round to them. I'm actually playing my BS/SR scrapper who's had hurdle respec'd out ready for i19.

Confirmed personally that ANY TOON WITHOUT ANY FITNESS POWER WILL RECIEVE THE INHERENT FITNESS AUTOMATICALLY WITH I19. My MM was my first playtest of i19 during closed beta and she got it no problem at 50 just by logging in.

Keep in mind that if you don't change them now, you can't lock in their powers as-is, so that if you ever do a respec for something else down the road, you're gonna end up with inherent fitness anyway. Kind of like people with legacy costume bits that aren't available in one of their slots can't ever change that costume or else lose those bits forever. You won't be able to pull out IOs to sell them, you'll have to live with whatever power tweaks come down the road, etc., if you want to keep your build the way it is.


Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

The only ones so far are my Empath (never needed it) and my Warshade (Stygian Circle, nuff said)
The others? I'm gonna be up late one night, heh.

Cheers Tyger, makes me feel better about my weekend of prespeccing.

I have plenty of characters that won't be updated for inherent fitness. I just don't happen to play them anymore so that makes it easy.


Too many alts to list.

All mine will be getting a respec. I've been playing with Mid's (with the unofficial patch) for the last month and have all my builds printed and ready to go.

I've been playing around with Mids to see "sort of" what some of my characters would look like with Inherent Fitness. The problem I'm running into is that in quite a few cases, there isn't a lot else I can take. I tend to pick powers that I think the character should have, rather than "best for teams" or "totally awesome." I don't take Hasten unless I can think of a good reason why the character should have it. And since I hate the way it looks, the only character that "must" have it currently is one based on a cheetah. Also the only character I ever took SuperSpeed for. They don't get Leadership unless I feel they are, in fact, a good leader. And so on. (And I'm not "holding back the team" because frankly, I'd rather solo Calystix than deal with most PUG teams at this point.)

In a few cases, I can take more powers from the primary/secondary. Unless I skipped them the first time for concept reasons. And as long as said powers can function with little or no extra slotting, since even if I swipe the slots from Health and Stamina that would only be three more. At least a handful of my characters will probably end up having to take "dud" powers that I'll never actually use just because there's nothing else to take at that level. I can't use the slots as "IO mules" because I've never gotten good enough at either playing the market OR farming to be able to afford things like the +recharge IO anyway.

The majority of mine are not going to get it unless I re discover why I enjoyed them in the first place. The four I enjoy the most, will most certainly go through it. I burned old freespecs the other day on two of them to prep them for a quick respec into it. Another one does not actually have a build so I need to figure one out for her. However, I am still on the fence with my main. His build is three years old and massive chanegs to his primary (martial arts) have been made and I am unsure what to do with tweaking his build. Out of the four, he may just keep his current build but I am still not sure.

I can't be ***** to respec most of my characters and find new powers and find tray space for them.

So, as it stands, the only people to benefit from inherent Fitness will be my Dwarf/Nova 'shade who never took Stam, my two Stalkers with no-fitness builds already, and the Dom and MM who will get respecs. The last four characters were made after I19 was announced. The only other toons I have plans of respeccing are my 50 Widow. My 50 Tank, who I intend to Incarnate, will keep his pool Stamina.

All of my characters. They work just fine without Inherent Fitness, and always have, so I see no need to change them. The fact that the Devs felt the need to force four powers on all characters in the game instead of just addressing the Endurance shortage some characters have is just sloppy work, IMO, and really takes away from the player's choice of how they build their own characters.
