If I am a Mace Brute ( or even Tank for that matter tomorrow !!! ) and I chose Black Scorpion, do his powers fire from the Mace I currently have or does it redraw and use ANOTHER mace ( which would anger me to no end )

BROOT !!! cause I hate scrappers.

I dont know whether to thank you or curse you...

THANK YOU because of the wonderful job you have done over the years !!!

CURSE YOU because now I will be up all night looking at all new build combos !!!!

Bill can you explain that for the totally computer ignorant ??

Same Question !!!!!

Calamity I have seen several posts by you lately hovering around the same topic of discussion. Fire does have some holes. Those holes however are by design because Fire Armor was always designed with them to offset the fact that it is a far more offensive set than all the other defensive melee primaries. Shield is a late comer to the game as far as offensive powers go and that power is getting reduced tomorrow aka " nerfed " although I think its more balanced than anything.

Fire Armor has more energy resistance that other sets, it obviously has the best resistance to fire. It doesnt have the resists to smashing lethal that other sets have making tough more of a requirement and it has no defense.

However it does have a massive heal which can literally heal you for half your hit point about every 15-20 seconds with a half decent recharge build. Burn now that it is closer to the original power with help fire melee toons defeat foes faster and dead foes are the ultimate mitigation. Fiery Embrace allows you to effective have TWO build up type powers in a build which you can alternate for a consistent buff to your damage and NOW it works across Primary, Secondary and APP powers as well.

The KB hole really is such a small issue now and it is so easily fixed its not even funny. You CAN spend a few million for an IO. You can also get the same IO for FREE from drops, from AE ticket rolls and MERITS. So the devs have made several ways to fill that holes relatively EASILY.

I would be FAR more concerned about the lower resistance to Smashing and Lethal than anything else in Fire Armor.

And we havent even talked about IO's yet. My Fire/Fire who is expensive has 35% melee defense, some resistance to Psi and defense to Psi and with all the Numina and Miracles and other stuff in his build actually dropped Consume to pick up Conserve Power and Physical Perfection.

Sure there are tanks that can tank things EASIER and are far less squishy.. But my Fire/Fire can get the job done with the best of them and can defeat foes FAR faster than all of them.

Personally I think you are a guy who may just like defense based sets more than resistance based sets and there is NOTHING wrong with that !!!

My Fire/Fire tanks says thanks for making me close to what I was originally. My Spines?Fire Scrapper laughs and says you dont realize what you have done.. muahahahahahahaha

You cannot prevent the end crash.. You will be able to recover from it quickly providing that you use it before you actually nuke.

have taken them. Always deleted them. Recharge to long, Dont stay with you long. die to quickly, slots can be used better elsewhere.

I want the old hover back.. I hate the new one. The ghost one was better too.

thank you very much for this.. it will go far in planning new dominators for me.

Shadow Maul.. This horrible animation stops me from playing the set. I cannot stand looking at it.

Jump Kick.. I never use it and I dont want to see anyone else use it ever again.

I cant even SEE what Heat Exhaustion does.

My vote.. Ice/Cold.

I will be making toons immediately with Electric Control. One Controller and Two Dominators..

The animation time I believe is tied into generating an image to actually propel. I have always suggested dropping the creation of random objects which I know would anger many into making propel shoot out a mini singularity. One image everyone sees the same thing and the attack should animate faster.

Solo Propel is fine. On a team it blows.

I respec'd bac into burn weeks ago.. had to drop Consume though.. but I never use it.

Bottom Line. The set is average at best.

where does it say that NDA is lifted ???

I hate to say this but I will probably move most of my character to Virtue since thats where I play most of the time now.

I dont think they want everything to be proliferated..

When I figure it out I'll let you know !!!

I enjoy far too many for far too many reasons.
