Trying to lift myself from the monotony of uni work, decided to finish off a movie for the GoEH.

Just a quick mock up...couldn't make the quality any better as 3D Max was already taking up a huge chunk of my computer's memory...but enough of the excuses...

Here it is... (clicky will take you to filefactory.com where you can download the movie...make sure u select the free download!)

Actually I found Poser anything but clear and helpful. For me it's dated and clunky - Maya6 is far more helpful when it comes to GUI, though obviously a lot more complex.

Anyway, as I said, everything is easier once you take the time to learn it, how easy depends on the individual.

[/ QUOTE ]

Like most things, to be good at it takes practice.

I've only used a demo of Poser, however would agree that Maya offers a bit more freedom when it comes to GUI. But when it comes to animation 3D Max is king!

[ QUOTE ]
have you borked Earth again ?

[/ QUOTE ]

Just on my way there

[ QUOTE ]
About the immobilze your missing the point, it does -fly. Which is pretty good to have in PvP. AoE sleep is complete [censored] in teams and with your tanker, AoE sleep and then wake them up with footstomp, or another memeber of your team has AoE. Its a pants power and is reason why most trollers avoid it in the high level. Single target immobilze is just for PvP, you don't even have to use it for PvE. I wouldn't take a sleep power for a tanker, but hey your choice.

Stalagmites isn't really a damage power its a control tool, its like the controller version. If your concerned about endurance cost stick redux in this power, or just give it a miss. Hand clap does disorient to but spreads mobs which can be annoying for teams. I notice you don't have hasten, why don't you just pick hasten and 3 slot it for recharge. Hasten always helps a build.

[/ QUOTE ]

Cheers for the input fella. They're all things that I'll certainly look into a bit more. So far I think the primary functions for Earth are set, it's just the later powers and slotting that'll nead to be tweaked here and there.

[ QUOTE ]
Hey Capt

Took a quick look and i hope your not relying on those tohitbuffs in invincibilty to be enough for your accuracy, It's now issue 6! Can't do that anymore and get away with half decent accuracy, especially in PvP. Stick accuracy in your attacks, 2acc 3 damage 1 endredux.

[/ QUOTE ]

My intentions were to rely on Invinc and Rage. However having been informed earlier of that the bonus on the two won't be that great despite the number of ToHits in there. If I find on test that I'm missing more often than expected will most likely remove one of the 2RchgRedux in favour of Acc (therefore 1Rechg, 1Acc, 1EndCost, 3Dmg).

With my current build I have 2ToHits in Invinc and 3ToHits in Rage. Even when I don't have Rage on, I find that 1Acc is good enough in PvE and competant in PvP.

[ QUOTE ]
Shame your not going body mastery because tankers are one of the AT's have access to one of the most overpowering powers- focussed accuracy. Ah well concept all the way.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have Conserve Power on my current build also and find I don't use it as often as I'd expect. 1.I seem to be teamed with some with Endurance Buffers, 2.When Tanking, I'm not all out attack. I still PvP with Earth and despite not having FoAcc (mainly because you can't use it in PvP Zones unti i7 comes out...correct me if I'm wrong cos' unsure if they've made lvl50 PvP zones accessible yet...if they have, I haven't found em :/), I'm still racking up those PvP points quite consistantly.

[ QUOTE ]
For your epics, get rid of salt crystals-it's [censored].

Take Stone Prison- the single target immobilze does -fly very powerful in PvP and as your lacking in range it will really help.

[/ QUOTE ]

Think of it this way. Stone Prison immobilisation 15secs (without slotting, according to hero planner), foes still able to attack you. Salt Crystals sleep 30sec (also without slotting), they can't attack you until you wake them (unless they have break fress...same said for StoPrison :P). Sure EndCost and Rchg a lot lower compared to Salt Crystals, but I don't see myself using either power that much.

[ QUOTE ]
Get rid of Hand Clap, I'd take stalagmites instead, the power looks a LOT better, and is a cool ranged stun. 2acc 2 recharge i'd say

[/ QUOTE ]

Having used Stalagmite in the past before with Earth, the main concern was the EndCost and Rchg for a low Dmg attack. With the high EndCosts in KO Blow & Foot Stomp, I felt having another attack with such high EndCost wouldn't benefit his build). The Disorientates I admit are useful, but tend to find nowadays that mobs usually walk away from you when disorientated, meaning you'll have several mobs going off in all directions and breaking your herd...I already have FootStomp's knockback to help me break my herd :/ After saying that, Stalagmites is a power that I would still consider.

a bit of everything fella...

could have put it in several sections (roleplaying, tankers, guides, creative...was gonna put the fraps vid i made, but didn't finish it in time), but put it in here as i was mainly looking for replies in regards to the build.

cheers for the comments and numbers

will definately keep them in consideration for when free respec is upon us

April a great month for Birthdays indeed!

Happy Birthday! Here's to having a good'un today! *raises pint*

[ QUOTE ]
You dont want to take Resist Elements that early as you will need all the "leathal/Smashing" protection you can get in the early levels! (remember Alexia's build)

[/ QUOTE ]

Heh...you're right ^^ . Was a spur of the moment response whilst at work.

If gonna take Taunt early, will have to push some of the powers I wanted further down the list...

01) --> Resist Physical Damage
01) --> Jab
02) --> Dull Pain
04) --> Haymaker
06) --> Temp Invulnerability in for Hurdle
08) --> Unyielding
10) --> Taunt in for Temp Invulnerability
12) --> Air Superiority
14) --> Fly
16) --> Hurdle in for Health
18) --> Invincibility
20) --> Health in for Stamina
22) --> Stamina in for Knockout Blow
24) --> Knockout Blow in for Taunt
26) --> Resist Elements
28) --> Rage
30) --> Resist Energies
32) --> Unstoppable
35) --> Tough Hide
38) --> Foot Stomp
41) --> Salt Crystals
44) --> Fossilize
47) --> Hurl
49) --> Hand Clap

I guess not too bad as I'll at least have Knockout Blow available for respec missions I enjoy.

ps...Alouqua now lvl43 n'est p a ma cherie?

Ahh, I see.

Sounds reasonable to me

One reason for me not getting Temp Invul early was due to its end cost in earlier lvls. Out of all three Invul toggles, TI has the highest end cost. Never really noticed it being much of a defense unless I had Resist Physical Dmg and Unyielding to back it up first.

30% is pretty considerable, so will play about with it in test when respec comes.

If Temp Invul provides that good a defence, then will swap around the following...

Lvl1 Temp Invul
Lvl10 Taunt
Lvl25 Resist Physical Dmg

Thank you for the response.

Would just like to comment on the following...

[ QUOTE ]
3 damage resists in unstoppable on top of any other resistant powers that stack? Pass capped i think. I personally think its worth 6 slots though but an end mod in there works well imo.

[/ QUOTE ]

If you're saying I've gone too overboard with the Dmg Res in Unstoppable when it'll stack with the other defences, was thinking that too. I'm not too certain on the official numbers, but if it is over the actual cap will most likely slot them with other enh types.


[ QUOTE ]
Slotting tohit buffs in invincible gains you very almost next to nothing elsewhere could do a whole lot more.

[/ QUOTE ]

Again, not too sure about the numbers. Was in the thinking slot it with ToHits to help with Acc as I'd dearly would like to miss out on Energy Mastery in favour of Earth Mastery for his build.

Currently, I have Energy Mastery and hit consistantly without using Fcoused Acc...however there are Acc slotted in my attacks (see current build below).

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
[24) --> Taunt
Finally confident enough to tank competently

[/ QUOTE ]

i have a little bit more confidence in finding good team players personally to be tanking confidentally long before (would be level 10 now for me as an ice tanker) but i'd say 50% of the time in PuGs they can hard to find pre level 20.

[/ QUOTE ]

Earth can easily Tank as soon as lvl10 also (having recieved Unyielding and TempInvul). Taunt is brought in Lvl24, due to my belief the other powers are more important...

...must have Stamina early to help deal with the toggle and attack's end cost, meaning obtain the other powrs in the pool before lvl20
...travel powers usually taken lvls 12 & 14.

If I were to put Taunt in earlier, I wouldn't know which to substitue it for (answers on a postcard pls). ^__^

Any suggestions to remedy this would be happily recieved.

You can't.

Cosmic burst has the disorient animation which can be confusing, but it's a hold (same with EMP and CC).
OG is a disorient.

[/ QUOTE ]

Is that really true? It takes disorient enhancers and I don't remember it stacking with CC

[/ QUOTE ]

Cosmic Burst does two things other than damage. Disorientates and Debuffs Defense, therefore doesn't stack with CC.

EMP and CC are the only powers in the Rad/Rad set that stack on hold.

Hehe...I kno bud.

Ringko was one of the reasons to why I made my Earth. Could always familiarise Flurry with the Pvt...those were the days eh ^__^

- Self Sustenance: Sustained by energies from within the Earth coursing through his body. He does not require air, food or water.
- True Invulnerability: When enfused with the Earth’s energies, he can possess monstrous protection from physical and energy attacks.
- True Flight: C’as Tillo is able to defy gravity and fly at outstanding speeds.

Limitations:
- Powers can be exhausted when not given enough rest resulting in a break down of his defences.

Talents:
Street Fighting, Cu’erzon History

Nemesis:
Alien beings known to Earth’s inhabitants as Rikti

Contacts:
GoEH, Alexia, Atmos, BlackWizard, Candy Rose, Captain Solaris, Chelsea Rorec, Empath, FireKitty, Sno, yo momma

Biography:
An immigrant from the stars, C’as Tillo was the sole survivor after his planet, Cu’erzon, was annihilated by the Rikti plague for dominance.

Only a child when he saw his family mercilessly slain, he grew up only knowing hardship and labour. At first the Rikti were content to enslaving his people, but soon they grew restless. The decision to exterminate all Cu’erzon beings was executed swiftly. Millions died in a matter of days.

Although too late, C’as had overheard the decision of extermination. Along with a large number of other Cu’erzonions, they were able to raid a light Rikti scout vessel. The battle was fierce with C’as being the only survivor. With the last ends of his strength C’as climbed aboard the vessel and activate its hyper drive.

Catapulted lightyears from the Rikti slaughter, the vessel soon ended its journey to the nearest inhabitable planet. Upon breathing the planets atmosphere, his Cu’erzon body infused with its life force. His physicality was enhanced to proportions greater than any mortal man, beast or being he had ever come across.

Thankful of this new start and abilities he could never have imagined he vowed to protect it from all who wished to harm her. In respect to his new adopted home, he presented himself with the same name. That name was…Earth

01) --> Resist Physical Damage
Not much to say about this power. Usually always take before Temp Invulnerability.
* Damage Resist(1)
* Damage Resist(3)
* Damage Resist(11)

01) --> Jab
Have no choice, but to take this power. Feeble damage with small chance of disorientation. No point slotting this with more Dmg, Will most likely place Disorient instead to help stack with later attacks of choice that have Disorient in them.
* Disorient Duration(1)

02) --> Dull Pain
Another power I normally take before Temp Invul, always making sure slotted early with Rchrge Redux.
* Recharge Reduction(2)
* Recharge Reduction(3)
* Recharge Reduction(7)
* Healing(34)
* Healing(34)

04) --> Haymaker
First power attack. Must have considering leaving out Punch. You’ll notice I haven't slotted with Acc. This is due to Invincibility slotting of ToHits. The bonus on that couple with Rage will provide me with good enough Acc bonus to hit as regularly as possible. You’ll find the majority of my bigger attacks slotted similarly.
* Recharge Reduction(4)
* Recharge Reduction(5)
* Damage(5)
* Damage(7)
* Damage(9)
* End Reduction(37)

06) --> Hurdle
Still bit unsure whether to keep this or go with Swift. I like to start of with a Fitness pool power ensuring that I get Stamina as soon as possible.
* Jump(6)

08) --> Unyielding
Always get this as soon as it becomes available. Tanking starts here. There’s no point in wading into a mob without it. This gets knocked, a swift Hellion bat to the head, there goes your chances of running away or defending yourself.
* Damage Resist(8)
* Damage Resist(9)
* Damage Resist(15)

10) --> Temp Invulnerability
Slowly building up my defences to becoming a competent Tanker.
* Damage Resist(10)
* Damage Resist(11)
* Damage Resist(15)
* End Reduction(43)

12) --> Air Superiority
Another attack to my arsenal. Just as strong as Punch, but with added knockup to boot.
* Recharge Reduction(12)
* Damage(13)
* Damage(13)
* Damage(25)
* End Reduction(36)

14) --> Fly
My choice of travel power for this hero. Not overly essential. But with this power there’s nowhere I can’t go. Plus the must have accessory for all “real” superheroes. Possibly put an extra Flight Speed in there.
* Flight Speed(14)
* Flight Speed(37)

16) --> Health
If I’m going to want Stamina for 20, this is the only place where I’d have Health. Chosen above other powers in the pool as it will make a difference whilst wallowing in a big group of enemies. I find not so essential for Defenders, Controllers and Blasters due to possibilities of losing Health pretty quickly.
* Healing(16)
* Healing(17)
* Healing(17)

18) --> Invincibility
Slowly getting there. Gone for overkill with the amount of ToHits slotted. A power that I have running constantly, hopefully this will ensure that I hit consistently enough.
* Defence Buff(18)
* Defence Buff(19)
* Defence Buff(19)
* To Hit Buff(27)
* To Hit Buff(33)
* To Hit Buff(34)

20) --> Stamina
Must have power for Earth and pretty much every other hero out there that run toggles aplenty and no endurance giving power.
* Endurance Modification(20)
* Endurance Modification(21)
* Endurance Modification(21)

22) --> Knockout Blow
Earth’s uber destructive attack. Slotted to get the most out of it Dmg-wise.
* Recharge Reduction(22)
* Recharge Reduction(23)
* Damage(23)
* Damage(25)
* Damage(27)
* End Reduction(37)

24) --> Taunt
Finally confident enough to tank competently, have chosen this power at this level, ready and primed for Respec missions.
* Recharge Reduction(24)
* Taunt Duration(39)

26) --> Resist Elements
What’s it they say in supermarket ads? “…every little helps”
* Damage Resist(26)
* Damage Resist(31)
* Damage Resist(42)

28) --> Rage
Despite the after effect of this power (unable to attack for a few seconds), it’s a power that I keep on auto. It actually helps with endurance, making sure I don’t get too carried away with my attacks.
* Recharge Reduction(28)
* Recharge Reduction(29)
* Recharge Reduction(29)
* To Hit Buff(31)
* To Hit Buff(46)

30) --> Resist Energies
Same said as with Resist Elements
* Damage Resist(30)
* Damage Resist(31)
* Damage Resist(42)

32) --> Unstoppable
Even after all the modifications on this power from previous issues, it’s a power that I enjoy to have and makes Earth look and feel like a real superhero.
* Recharge Reduction(32)
* Recharge Reduction(33)
* Recharge Reduction(33)
* Damage Resist(36)
* Damage Resist(43)
* Damage Resist(43)

35) --> Tough Hide
Chosen to help stack with Invincibility’s +Def…assuming that it does stack! If not will most like go for a shuffle round of powers and include Haste or TP Foe.
* Defence Buff(35)
* Defence Buff(36)
* Defence Buff(40)

38) --> Foot Stomp
Good AoE power. Still would like to argue to why they’ve given this power knockback instead of knockdown. IF there were ever an earthquake, you’d find yourself knocked to the floor not fly backwards a couple of feet…unless the earth beneath you feet protruded up, then you’d be catapulted backwards. Not the case with Foot Stomp. The earth shakes beneath you when activated. If they want to keep knockback on it, I recommend changing the animation...so neh! :P
* Recharge Reduction(38)
* Damage(39)
* Damage(39)
* Damage(40)
* End Reduction(40)

41) --> Salt Crystals
Useful power in PvE and PvP. An AoE with very long sleep duration even without the use of enhancements. Yes of course people with most likely have Break Frees, but still find it can still come in handy when being overrun.
* Recharge Reduction(41)
* Sleep Duration(42)

44) --> Fossilize
I found this very useful in one-on-one Arena matches and will most likely help if I do decide to enter PvP zones.
* Recharge Reduction(44)
* Recharge Reduction(45)
* Hold Duration(45)
* Hold Duration(45)
* Hold Duration(46)
* End Reduction(46)

47) --> Hurl
Never really considered this power, until found it apparently has about the same damage as Haymaker. I was thinking whether or not to go with this or Stalagmites. Despite Stalagmite being a useful AoE (Disorientates), it’s recharge and end cost were considerably high. Looking forward to using this coupled with shouts of “On yer head son!”
* Recharge Reduction(47)
* Damage(48)
* Damage(48)
* Damage(48)
* End Reduction(50)

49) --> Hand Clap
The power choice…Other considerations included Haste or TP Foe. With Haste there is the danger of running out of endurance a lot quicker if I go overboard with so called [/b][/i]Scranking[/b][/i]. TP Foe would be useful, however would have to juggle the powers about and bring it a bit closer down a few lvls, possibly exchanging positions with either Resist Elements or Energies. At the moment Hand Clap is ahead, purely for comical value alone.
* Knockback Distance(49)
* Disorient Duration(50)
* End Reduction(50)




Loyal to my original biography and a general build capable of good PvE and PvP, this is my intended build for Earth come next free respect come issue7. Feel free to post constructive comment if thoust feelest the need.

Capt.

No flurry!? ^__^

[ QUOTE ]
Here's my latest ponderings on Irradiators future PvP build. As hard as it was to admit, rad blast kinda sucks for PvP

[/ QUOTE ]

Sacrilage! ^__^

moving on...

Your intended build, is very similar to what Capt has now. The build I currently have I believe is fantastic PvE and competant in PvP (took down a SStrength/Stone Brute with it...so can be to bad).

I would say keep Fitness Power Pool for good mobility about the map. Also bring in Total Focus in favour for Proton Volley as an attack (of course shuffle around Fly if you are to take it). Aim...with the amount of debuffs we Rads do and Tactics from Leadership...I feel is not greatly needed.

With Capt, I have Choking Cloud, Maneuvers and Tactics running on constant. Add Radiation Infecton and Enervating Field, along with attacks when in battle. Yet still I don't find it a huge drain on my endurance. Its when I start spamming heals and then setting off EM Pulse usually results in a drop of some of my toggles.

You'll find a number of your secondaries have low endurance cost. With Capt I've only gone for Neutrino Bolt, Irradiate, Cosmic Blast and Atomic Blast. Atomic Blast I don't use too often and may respec it out. May take in Proton Volley or another power pool.

I tend to leave out X-Ray (looks camp), Electron Haze (long animation and recharge time, also has higher end cost to most of the other blasts) and Neutron Bomb (high end cost and poxy damage...only does about same amount of debuff as Irradiate).

I have Conserve Power from the Power Mastery Pool, however don't use it as regularly as I would have thought. I believe Dark Consumption has a quicker recharge rate and lower endurance cost then Conserve Power.

Fitness will be essential and I believe it is important to get Stamina early. I tend not to go for Health, as I prefer to have Swift & Hurdle for the best mobility possible when in battle.

Happy Birthday mate!

Love Capt x

4th 50! jeez, there's must be something i'm doing wrong nowdays!

nevertheless...CONGRATULATIONS!!!

no offence peeps i like ya'all, but aint this kinda thing for sg forums etc?

[/ QUOTE ]Take a look at the union boards, SG threads are completely allowed on server forums.

but they're onions ;D same to those tho, taking up lots of space that other posts could fill, not being nasty, just thinking of that

[/ QUOTE ]

lol, man...you make it sound as if this thread was made just to bring my post count up! not denying it has helped of course! but its not that i'm posting useless information, i don't see this thread being just a space filler and taking up lots of it.

posting here on the coh forum gives better publicity. and for someone who works and goes to uni most days, trying to find scraps of time to play a game he enjoys, might find these forums as a good way of getting teams, hopefully catching old friends they haven't seen in ages who may not know about our sg forum (if we had one) and teaming up again.

my request was for ppl to join me whilst getting gabriel to 50. it invited geoh members, but also people outside the sg.

your point has been taken mate. i've had offers from good friends in game to host forums for us in the past, but the matter of the fact is that it doesn't get used. there's too few in the sg to keep it alive. and unless its been running for ages like contingency's or your very own tyl, it won't get to be seen by too many ppl outside the sg.

so for now i'll use these forums, unless i'm told otherwise by their moderators.

Hehe...point taken

Was reading a post once and kinda agree with the point that it'll be a quieter place if we move these to a SG forum.

Also the GoEH doesn't have their own site. I would dearly love to have our own site, but 1)I don't have time available to me to get the GoEH site up and running and continuously moderated. 2)With the current number of active members of the SG, I think the forum for it would be very quiet and not worth my while in keeping it running.

..but more importantly, I'd get homesick being away from you!

Maybe they'll put a new area in the forums for SGs. If they do then I'll move it across. But as for now will most probably continue posting here. I don't think I'm in any violation for having this type of thread, but if you're finding it an annoyance to read, I guess you can just ignore the thread?

If loads of peolpe in the community are upset with this thread, then I'll most likely consider whether or not to conintue it.

First off apologies for not being on and involving myself with the SG as much of late.

Logged on earlier today and see we have about 5 GoEH heroes in the lvl40-45 bracket...
General Stoner (Lvl43 Peacebringer)
Alouqua (Lvl42 Illu/Rad Controller)
Dark Celestine (Lvl42 DA/SR Scrapper)
Gabriel Knight (Lvl42 BS/Regen Scrapper)
Idra (Lvl40 Kat/Invul Scrapper)

Blizz and myself would sincerely love to get our coupled alts Alouqua (lvl42) and Gabriel Knight (lvl42) out of the way so can concentrate on other things...ie CoV.

My ingame time nowadays are about 8am-12pm and 11pm-until I fall down dead of sleep deprevation.

So those nearabouts our lvl and interested (doesn't have to be in the SG), sign up and join us get to 50 together.

If interested place your regular ingame times, so can sort out a few missions. Would ideally love some defenders and even a tank as I think we have enough cover on the damage side if the rest of the GoEH members our lvl joins us.

Look forward to your responses!

Well done mate...you know you deserve it

happy b-day to one of the CoH old boys...in terms of CoH gaming experience that is...and i guess natural age too ^__^

meh...having missed out on the last raid was really looking forward to another being setup soon...but it seems as if its been dashed as i'll unlikely be able to make this next one...unless date is changed *wink wink* (highly unlikely tho )
