Rikti Pylon times

The scrappers have a thread on it why shouldn't we

Just tried soloing one for the first time today with my mind/psi/psi, with incarnate pets it took 2:07.2 minutes to drop one. Curious to see how fast other people can drop one as mine is somewhat of a concept build.

Typically the Pylon run times do not include LORE pets. Or outside buffs etc.

Used to be, but is no longer the case... take a look at the scrapper thread, you'll see most of them are with incarnate powers now.

Read the Scrapper thread again. Lore pets are *not* typically included. Other iPowers, yes. But not Lore pets.

Um, I post reguarly in the Scrapper and Stalker threads. LORE pets typically are not included, except as a "hey look at this crazy time I got using LORE" as an afterthought.

Incarnate yes -- Interface, Alpha, etc. These are not outside buffs. But LORE pets not.

It seems silly to forgo Lore Pets entirely to me. Testing is the entire point of tracking pylon killing time. On an AT like dominators, you can make the choice to sacrifice damage for perma-holding the AV as to let your pets live. How would you determine whether that sacrifice is worth it or not if you never test Lore?

That said, for the results to be relevant to anyone but yourself more information is needed. Exact powers, attack chain, etc.. Also a good idea to include the formula for calculating DPS in the very first post, so people don't have to dug it up somewhere.
