Maneuvers + Kismet 6% Acc

Just something that came up while planning out my Crab, I was wondering how exactly these two things interact? Does it grant the 6% Acc to the person casting the aura, or to everyone being effected by the aura? And what about other similar procs? For example, I would like in my final build to include the following:

TT: Maneuvers slotted with Kismet + 6% Acc and LotG Recarge
TT: Leadership slotted with GSFC Chance for BU

So how will this play out? Who is effected by these bonuses? I have a Corruptor who uses Tactics with the GSFC piece, and I've never noticed the BU hit anyone but me (granted, I haven't been paying much attention), so I'm guessing that one only effects me personally.


The off-beat space pirate...Capt. Stormrider (50+3 Elec/Storm Science Corruptor)
The mysterious Djinn...Emerald Dervish (50+1 DB/DA Magic Stalker)
The psychotic inventor...Dollmaster (50 Bot/FF Tech Mastermind)

Virtue Forever.

I am fairly certain that the global boost from the enhancement only applies to the person using it. The effect doesn't come from the power, but the proc, so using the power on others shouldn't give the bonus.

It would be awesome if it did, though. Imagine if everyone stocked up Maneuvers with LotG +Recharge and Kismet. Turn them loos and suddenly we all have + 50% recharge and +24 To-Hit.

I'm pretty sure the procs in question will trigger only on the player. If you put them in Parry or Follow Up, they'd buff you, not the target, and the behavior should (?) be the same whether the target is an ally or enemy.

They would only buff you.

On a side note. you can slot the heal procs in Triage Beacon and it procs on any team mate in the patch for 120 seconds.



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.

Check the detailed information of the enhancements. It will specify target or caster. If it says target, anyone can get the effect (e.g. Performance Shifter +End in Accelerated Metabolism); if it says caster, only you get it (e.g. LotG def/+rech in Maneuvres).

best use Kismet in the ranged def only toggle (Combat Training: Defensive), and don't pick TT:Offensive, better pick up Tactic from the leadership pool.

My crab has dual Maneuvers, dual Tactic and dual Assault.

I seem to remember seeing a couple that say "You". "You" is the same as "Caster".

Just to be clear, the +6% Accuracy is player only. Maneuvers always affects the whole team, of course.

Double stacked Maneuvers, Assault, and even Tactics is an awesome buff combo if you can manage it.
