Lore and other questions

What is the difference between Core and Radial? I just got Lore and Im thinking about Warworks. I want the ones with the most damage. I heard Core is the one. Not sure.

Also, I want my character to be plus 1 (Meaning level 50 with the 1 next to it) Does that mean I have to fill both sides of the tiers? From bottom to top?

The vanguard looks cool. I was on a trial and I saw one using a rifle. What other powers they have? My lvl 50 is a thugs and poison. I think they will look cool with my thugs, but I heard that Warworks rock in the damage department.

I'm thinking theme here. What other lore pets have guns or rifles? I think the IDF does.

1. The "Core" sides of Lore pet trees are damage-focused. The "Radial" sides have one damage dealer and one support pet, with the "Total Radial" and the tier 4 Radial support pets having -only- support powers. So if you just want the most damage, you're going for the Total Core side of the tree.


2. What you're referring to is a Level Shift. Your first Level Shift is from your Alpha slot, and to get it you need to slot a tier 3 or tier 4 Alpha ability. The Level Shift here applies at all times.

Additionally, if you slot a tier 3 or 4 Lore and/or Destiny ability, each of those gives you an Incarnate Shift. An Incarnate Shift is a Level Shift that only applies during Incarnate content.

If you slot all three of these with tier 3-4 abilities, you will be 50 (+1) in regular content and 50 (+3) in Incarnate content.


3. You'll get a Vanguard Sergeant and/or a Vanguard Sorcerer (at the various tiers) if you go with the Core side of the tree. They should use similar powers to the normal ones in the game, but I'm not sure: Here are the normal NPCs' listings

Note that the Lore pets' damages are being rebalanced in Issue 24, so any experience with each pets' current damage values is subject to change. Cimerorans, for one, are scheduled to get massively reduced damage.


4. If you're specifically looking for guns:
- IDF, I believe, has guns for both its Elite Ranger and Commander pets.
- Longbow, Nemesis, Rikti, and Vanguard should all have guns on their Lieutenant pets only. The Bosses, for various reasons, won't be gun-wielders.

Someone can correct me if I got anything wrong here.


Edit: Oh, and here's the link to the Paragon Wiki article listing the various Lore pets, including ones coming up in Issue 24.

Thank you so much for that information.

I have another question about enhancement bonuses. Crushing impact recipe for example, has several bonuses. 7 percent more accuracy. Does that bonus ignore ED even if I have the max 3 accuracy io's in that power?

Yes, set bonuses are applied AFTER ED is implemented on a power.

Note there is one other big difference between the two sides:

Core side has a 15 min recharge, 5 min duration on pets.

Radial has a 10 min recharge, 5 min duration on the intangible pet, and 3 mins on the other.

Only the Partial Radial and the Radial Superior have the 10-minute recharge, though. Total Radial and the plain t2 Radial are still 15 minutes.
