the point is to encourage you to list low. If you need to relist you obviously priced too high.

The reasons are many fold but here are just two easy to understand ones:
1) provide a constant deflationary pressure, through low listing
2) act as an influence sink

Debuff and Buff cannot be seperated like that.

Almost all defender priomaries (and corr/troller and MM secondaries) are a combination of buff and debuff inside of one set

Uber and Fourspeed have the main reasons covered.

I'll be contributing my own data at some point, right now I'm stealing a few mins online and that may well be it for the next few days.

My wife just had a minor op, and now needs some tlc and that obviously takes priority.


I have one person PM me some data, and I'll present a cleansed summary. If anyone else wishes to go that route, I'll be happy to add your numbers anonymously.

One of the SGs I am in keeps an inventory of various IOs.

The most used ones are 15 (for better than DO) 25 (SO time) 35 (for the rest of the career).

So much so that after a about a year we eliminated the others as they were just not being used.

Personally I start at 12 with commons IO, or cheap sets on just about every character. Either pulled from SG bins, crafted by one of my field crafters, or frequently bought for a steal in advance.

adn yet the Devs are fine with 100% resists for NPCs

Statesman, The Honoree, Reichsman, Citadel ...

Please note that sheet hasn't yet been updated with the I16 changes.

Based on the open testing, some of that information may yet chnage.

I think the nearest we have in game right now is Dark blast

Dark Blast
Moonbeam
Blackstar
are all up front damage

Gloom
T Tentacles
NightFall

Are DOT

Dark Pit, torrent and Life Drain are utility powers with minimal damage.
(Though to be fair lfie drain is the same base dark blast, just a longer animation and would tend to be slotted for heal)

In which case:

is the latest word, which is just 2 weeks ago.

Whats 'wrong' with them ?

The only significant bug I am aware of is the Barracuda SF MM power, which has a fix on test.

Of course a 2487 HP heal is overkill on anything bar a tank or a brute.

Scrappers/Khelds/VEATS cap at 2409 hit points, then its down to most squishies at 1606 hit points.

So the most any squishie is getting out of that heal is 1605 HP.

My answer will be "you know I can't talk about that" to any question.

Sounds like fun, I may stick my neck out and participate.

Be totally non-FoTM, but probably a good target.

the downside I see is this

I got the walls and ceilings complete, and most of the skirting boards done.

Painting isn't as much fun as double XP

(I did get 6 levels on my mercs/traps 35-41, a couple on my fire/kin and several scattered on lowbies)

Outside of PvP, where tiny edges in performance matter.

the highest of the high, STF/LRSF (maybe the Recihsman SF/TF) is entirety runable with SO builds.

heck the LRSF arrived in I7, 2 whole issues before IO and as it was the only source redside for HO, it had to be completable with just SO.

The STF arrived concurrent with IOs, so the first runs through were indeed with SO/HO builds.

So for PVE content, IOs period are just not required. Helpful yes, but not required.

The bottom end earnings for a level 50 are pretty well established from the prior thread, the ball park Figure of 1 million inf/hour for a non-solo build (such as a defender).

Now especially with the new slider settings we need to probe the top end. bring out your fire/kins, your fire/psi Doms, your SS/fire brutes and run maps as fast and as furious as you can.

In one hour of your chosen activity report:

a) Inf from Kills
b) Inf from sales (AT VENDOR RATES!)
c) Total Inf (a+b)

I'm not saying you HAVE to sell that prophecy for 5000 inf, but that is the inf brought into 'the economy' by the drop.

Extra info like what exactly was dropped and the like would be nice, but those are the key points.

I also suggest doing a /logchat and sending those to Archie for his collation into probing the exact purple/Pool C/D from bosses/ Costume drop rates, but thats not a requirement.

Been there done that myself, sometimes I catch it, most often I waste a charge

Good solid suggestion.

And that's when the thread lost any minor usefulness

Bills point is

at +4 Shockwave is knockdown due to the purple patch.

You can judge for yourself how much less effective if it at mitigation as Knockdown.
