Bio Armor!

I'm rather happy the set is set up as Absorb >> Res >> Regen. Building for defense is oh so easy these days and if you care to, you could pair bio-armor with Katana, TW or Staff. This set looks like it's going to be extermely beefy.

The issue is making sure someone who doesn't want to build for defense is a viable option, which, if absorb works as described earlier, would only be viable if Res > Regen > Absorb.


I really should do something about this signature.

Rumor has it that this is up on test.
Any truth to this?

Nope (just checked). But Water Blast is on the beta server--you just have to buy it from the store.

I hope Sym Armor is next for beta after water.

No i won't call it "Bio Armor". Sym Armor sounds better (to ME).

I'm REALLY hoping for spines on Brutes by the time we get Sym Armor, I got a Char i really want to make as a Spines/Sym Brute but will have to settle with Scrapper i guess till Brutes get Spines.

Here's hoping Sym Armor will be great!

It may sound better, but that doesn't stop it being factually wrong, which is why that isn't the name of the set.

I'm reasonably confident that Bio Armor and Nature Affinity, (and proliferation) will be part of the next full issue.

"Absorb" won't be given to players without making a big (issue sized) song-and-dance.

I just saw that generic Heal IOs are now listed as Heal/Absorb. Does this mean the absorb concept will build around Heal IO sets?

That's what it seems. Instead of creating new enhancements they will use the Heal IOs and Accurate healing IO sets.

That really makes more sense than having to introduce a whole new set of TO/DO/SO/IO/HamiOs.

Works for me and who knows, those powers might have dual purpose built in. Like absorb/HP or something. I could see wanting to have an absorb char at/near the HP cap, for those times your absorb fails.

From CoH Twitter about 30 minutes ago.

"If you haven't hopped on the VIP Beta Server to check out Water Blast, Nature Affinity and Bio Armor, you're missing out!"

Never trust the New Tab, it don't work right on beta. Try just entering Bio in the search bar.
