Broken Voltage

Wait didn't Castle make the PvP changes? maybe we should get someone else to look at the AI problems... >_> not too sure, but anyhow... I usually make it a habit to arrest the runners before they escape, but most of the time I play my trollers so I don't notice it too much... */e shurg

On the psi mastery set for doms I just need to know if link minds doesn't take recharge IOs, I've done the research and it all says no, so I need game proof now.... anyone know?

This news is awesome I'm even more ready to drop my Dom over to PI and get my link minds, World of Confusion, and Nado.

I've got a couple, I'm in the boat of hasten and SS need no efffect added. With that alone I would be happy. But I do have a couple more, Electric powers in my eyes need's new sounds and animations. Maybe something like a backpack that has a generater that produces the charge or something.

And I do too believe Mind powers like Ill and mind control need different animations if I was a mind controller in RL, there would not be a swirl appearing in front of me.

Honestly if you want to know the truth, I'll breakdown each set and explain my experience.

Earth Prim: By far the most useful set of a Troller, second to Mind for the most controllerish.

Fire Prim: You will find that this is the most used set for the strong reason that it is usable out of the box, sort of speak. In my opinion the easiest set to use.

Gravity Prim: Though I feel this set needs quite a bit of work, this set well be the most fun, you got powers that throw forklifts at the enemies, a power that grabs up a bunch of baddies and warp them to where you want. Fun.

Ice Prim: Can't really help ya here, never really used the set.

Illusion Prim: The first controller set I used, loved the invis, loved the PA. The whole set is pure win, the down side is not too beginner friendly, I had to learn other ATs before I was any good with Ill.

Mind Prim: In my opinion the best Controller set in the game. This is the topnotch set, I plan to use only this set on my Dom after GR goes live. Still not a good set for people new to Controllers.

Plant Prim: This is the set I would suggest for people starting out on Trollers, it's got all the right tools at the right lvls and not too bad on end drain. Try out Plant Control.

As for your secondary set, there are a few I feel synergy well, Thermal is your best bet, you got heals, shields, and debuffs at later lvls.

Other sets I would suggest is Radiation Emission is a nice set and not too much management, another fun set might be Trick Arrow.

All the other set well require a little bit more thought and management to use them effectively. I'll let you decide though, this is just my opinion.

Well let's see Grav's imm has no kb pro, the whole set does lack more damage then most, and there is at least two powers that I would never take. But if it were me, I would go.... hmmm I'm going with Storm Summoning, and call yourself Atmosphere I would say though, Gravity as is, is only good for concept until Dimension Shift get's a revamp, and the pet get's a little more damage. If I wanted more control I would take that pool power set, what is it? XD

Wow, 64 posts so far, this does my heart proud, I love to see this much help to a new player. Well I've just got a few things....

1) I would avoid Energy primary on blasters and Corrupters for now, that set has a lot of knockback in it and tanks that are a little on the short fuse side will get mad if you knocking the baddie around like a rag doll.

2) In team's it will turn into fun right away. You may have to wait a few minutes to get started, ( So the team can pack up with 8 ) but it's worth it, things die fast, and you move at about the speed of a rabbit.

3) When soloing killling everything may seem like a drag but you got the enemy scaler now that controls how many baddies you go against and how much higher they are from you.

4) Like many have said enjoy the low lvls they only come once then they are done.

5) Concepts deepen the game ten fold, if you feel a sense of connection with your toon you will feel more home playing him a lot and wont tire of playing him.

6) Though pvp is all but existent here, you can still meet some friends there and have friendly matches to see whos build is better at battling follow players, and who knows, maybe one of you could land a pvp IO hopefully a lvl 50 one, and not have to worry about influence for a while.

7) But most of all enjoy the game, don't let it turn into whos the better damage dealer or who has more def, the whole point behind games is that they are fun and that's why you play them. I myself, love to feel like I can do anything with a toon, this is why I'm playing a defender, seeing if it can take on many enemies at once. Enjoy, destroy, and most of all have fun follow CoX player!

Because the Devs hate Villains?

Ah this made me Gigglesnort..... XD Carry on down with the republic too! XD\

So this is what people do when they are bored with the game after 30 minutes of play.... XD

I'm most curious about the possibility of gettin a non-FF or maybe I'll just say Kin build to at least ranged damage cap? I'm on the side it's not real possible and that has lend me to not even try to gut my build I have and soft cap ranged damage... any thoughts?

Same boat myself, I've haven't been able to play for 5 days now, this is getting old, support better get this fixed before they make me regret paying my 15 for the month....
