MA changes

Okay, I haven't paid attention to my MA/Regen in a while (I know, I'm a bad scrapper, I'm sorry), and when MA got proliferated to tankers, I noticed it got a +defense in Storm Kick. Is that only for Tankers (to provide a reason for taking the level 2 attack), or did it extend to scrappers (and stalkers), too?

Tankers only. It's probably to make up for the fact that Tankers don't crit, and so don't get to take advantage of Storm Kick's enhanced crit chance.

I'd happily give up the increased crit chance for a 7.5% def to all. Just saying.

Yeah, this was a chang I didn't agree with by this reasoning.

No, they didn't get Scrappers crit, but then, Scrappers don't get Bruising or Gauntlet.

I think it was more a "No one would use MA but a few if we ported MA" change than any thing really dealing with Scrappers and crits.

It was a set that would of been over shadowed by Super Strength for many players, so MA needed something to give it an edge ovr o Tankers.

Now, that said, they could make it so you can enhance the defense debuff in CAK, so I can slot a -Resist in the attack.

Or make the +def enhanceable so we could put an LotG in Storm Kick. >.>

>.> enhance-able and stack-able storm kick!



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.

Eh, not worried about that, and if they did, Im sure some one would Fraken slot it to some degree to make them think it gave to much defense.
