Wont really change a lot of my defenders. Will pick up leadership pool for those that dont have it most likely.
-
I seriously doubt they are going to hand out more slots.. Because if I had more slots AND more powers.. muahahahahahahahahahaha
-
Pretty much this is what I see...
Guy who played a long time ago and never really liked the game... found something else he liked better...
Came back to say why this isnt like the game I like better...
Review sucked.. badly..
Epic Fail ate a review. Wasnt honest was extremely biased and by the reponses here the reviewer is obviously biased AGAINST the game and therefore cannot give an objective review..
What he has given is a rant.. not a reveiw.. -

This is DEFINITELY an issue as I have had it happen TWICE in less than 24 hours. Both times a Rogue moving from Pocket D to Talos Island. This is a serious issue.

Id like to know who these other games are with a million plus subscribers that have come out recently..

Working on Issue 19 tank builds now.. Writing the idea in my CoH Notebook !!

True you save a slot or two but you increase your end costs
-
You can as others have said build in a decent amount of resistance with Impervium Armors and Crushing Impacts. Also do not neglect that fact that Luck of the Gambler sets also provide Psi DEFENSE as well and they will slot into ever defense power you have.
However one of your BEST friends is Dull Pain. Dull Pain can make you a huge bag of hit pints that it will take a while to whittle down. They key is hitting it before you need it. Put enough recharge in your build and you can get it to perma status. Expensive and time consuming as it will cost you influence or merits, BUT well worth it.
I have tanked plenty of Psi missions and AV's with Excalibur my INV/NRG tank. -
Quote:Fire/Fire Tank will get Rise of the Phoenix, Taunt and probably Temp Protection for the slow resists.According to information coming out of the City of Heroes PAX panel last night, the fitness pool is going to become an inherent when i19 goes live. You'll still be able to add slots to it like you normally would, but now you'll be freeing up power selections that you may have taken to get stamina, etc. According to the information, characters already created will need to be respec'd to gain this change. So be aware that this is coming down the pike when you're looking at your builds.
I know my Fire/Fire/Pyre tank will be the first I'll change. I was already planning to respec the toon with the changes to FA, but I'll be holding off a bit longer. Unless I change my mind I'm planning on adding in Taunt, Temp Protection (for a mule spot), and more then likely Rise of the Phoenix to replace the three powers selections that the fitness pool took up. (Combat Jumping also looks tempting as does Hasten, but we'll see.)
How will this change your tank(s)?
Inv/NRG Tank will most like be getting Physical Perfection and just stick teh chance for+end in it but wont have any slots to use it with because he is already awesome. He will also be able to pick up Resist Elements and Resist Energies. Even the one slot will help. This will probably move my IN/Tank even farther ahead of the pack for sheer awesomeness !!!
WP/SS tank will pick up Resurgence even though he doesnt die that often if ever now. Dont know what else he will get maybe leadership.
Ice/Stone I have no idea off the top of my head.
Elec/SS will probably pick up Combat Jump. I cant think of anything else.
Shield/SS will probably pick up One with the Shield which I skipped.
Inv and Stone skipped Build Up so this will help as well
On a totally different note ALL BRUTES will immediately pick up taunt. -
Quote:Depends on the toon you have and what your build is you might get some very good choices. However im my current controllers I dont see a lot of use in getting a possible 2-3 power choices which I really wont be able to slot.A very short sighted view Airhammer, many powers are fully functional with just 1 slot. I suppose it comes down to what your primary and secondary is. Powers that I expect to see more often:
Ressurect, Mutation, Power of the Phoenix, Fallout, Group Invisibility, Inertial Reduction, Smoke, all the single target immobilizes, Some of the non Mind Control/Elec Control sleeps.
All those "nice to have but no room for" powers.
I wonder what hidden gems people are going to discover now that they have the space to try new powers.
Leadership is a possibility for some. Recall Friend for pets.. -
hardly if at all. Ill pick up recall friend on all controllers, Maybe leadership pool.. thats about it... and thats a BIG if...I dont give a crap if it is an inherent power now.. If I dont have SLOTS to make the other stuff I would take effective.. who gives a crap...
-
I would prefer they fix the snipes Blaster, Corruptors, Defenders and Dominators ALREADY have that have been horribly broken since ED came out. Pre ED you slotted a snipe with one accruacy and five damage and used build up and aim and you were guaranteed to tae take out a minion or a LT and severely damage a boss which was worth the end cost of the attack. its long animation and the fact it could be interrupted.
NOW post ED you can BARELY take out an even con Minion.. And forget about an LT even WITH build up and aim and the SAME end cost and long animation.
FIX SNIPES !!!! -
EM was ruined when it was ported over...
This set has been destroyed.. slow animation and activation times.. really weak AoE damage... just pathetic... -
Unless they are going to give me more slots for a lot of my character this wont matter one bit. Most people will three or four slot stamina at most. Maybe a few slots in health. Thats about it. The access to three powers that I wont be able to slot to me is NOT such a big deal.
So some of my tanks that skipped taunt will now be able to pick it up.. thats good.
My controllers that didnt take Recall Friend will be able to move their pets around.. yay.. maybe I pick up SuperSpeed and Superjump on a few toons.
But really thats about it because with any real core powers I cant see myself being able to slot them out with anything.
I have always said that should start giving out MORE slots in the later levels than just three. Half the time I cannot slot that epic power properly because I DONT have enough slots. Or I have to skip a power I would really like to take because there arent enough slots.
So unless they are adding MORE slots in the later levels so I can slot that extra power or two I am going to take.. for me this is kinda...... meh... Its ok... but Its not going to be a game changer on most of my toons at all. -
I agree. Take a chance and build one. I dont mind sharing builds and I often ask for help as well but I think sometimes people are so afraid of making something totally wrong that they hamper themselves from learning what makes a build work RIGHT.
And that being said just because a build works for me, doesnt always mean it will work for you. You might not like the choices, or if a person like me who tends to build a combination of Concept and Effectiveness with Concept always getting top priority. There are some things my character just wouldn't do or some power choices that dont fit in his background for example I am NEVER going to take Ice in the blaster set because I get defense from frozen armor if its not an ice based toon.
Go ahead make a build.. play.. you can always respec !!!! -
Hope they are finally gonna fix Gravity..
-
Scrappers and Stalkers. Simply cannot stand them. I might try again if I EVER get a Katana.Ninjutsu Scrapper.
-
anyone still doing their new toons the old fashioned way or has everyone just run to the new zone ??
-
SWEEEEEET that last one did exactly what I wanted it to do THANKS !!!

I have a lot of character built and some of them use different procs of different types. One thing I have never really understood is when I see damage procs in builds that already do damage and people talk about it like its a big deal.
Maybe I am missing something. I have placed damage procs in toggles and i have watched that they rarely go off. Do they have a better chance of firing in a click power? The chances of a lot of the procs I see going off is very small. Wouldnt it be better to just slot more accruacy or recharge or end redux??
Again im not a novice with IO's and sets just dont understand all the damage proc love in attacks -
Its the attacks that build more domination than the control powers.Electric is an excellent set that I enjoyed a lot on test. I am going to start leveling some Doms and Controllers as soon as I finish moving one last villain to rogue status

silly topic... there is no such thing as too much control...
