So my level 18 FF/Archery defender walks into her base, into the control room and WHAMMO!
98% defense is meaningless against turrets that con +32 to you, it seems -

Quote:Some of my best teaming on a Grav/Storm has been with a duo of /Devices blasters.Somebody brings it up every few months. No word from the Devs as to when it will or might happen.
But imagine the combo of Grav/Traps . . . laying down a bunch of trip mines, Acid Morter and Poison Gas Trap, then wormhole a group into the middle . . .
It wouldn't be fast, but it would be funny as hell.
It's lots of fun when they go boom -
Bad idea: Wearing pandas (RAWR!)
Good idea: Buying new enhancements -
Bad idea: Running to grab a drink, in between spawns (depiction of superhero being graphically dismembered while attempting to retrieve a beverage from in between several foes far more powerful than said hero)
Good idea: Having a nice conversation with your friends. -

In the options menu, there's an option to hide all unclaimable items. If you enable that, you'll be able to claim all without problems.

We've seen Car-on-a-stick.
Can we now have The Moon-on-a-stick?
It's not like I'm asking for Arcturas or anything -
Quote:But with rocketboard why can you not attack using all the regular animations?
"Balance"
Rocket Board is a "free" power (ie, it doesn't count against your other power selections, and never runs out. The 600pp is just a one-time incidental cost for all your characters) that lets you move faster than fly (well, at low levels at least). In order to balance this power against Fly, it had to have a drawback, so "you can't use other powers" is what was chosen. -
Remove the damage from 6-7 of those powers, and you've got a Controller Secondary, I think.

Quote:-300% is a resist floor. The lowest resistance anything can have, at any time, is -300%. Effectively, this means your attacks do 4x as much damage as normal.Wiki lists -resistance floor at -300%. I am not sure if that counts as debuff cap though.
It should also be noted that this is an actual value of -300%. If you're fighting a critter with a 50% resistance to Smashing damage, you can reduce their smashing resistance by 350% (and they'll resist your debuffs by 50% as well - so you'd actually need 700% worth of resistance debuffs before factoring said critters' resistance to floor their smashing resistance)
Another interesting detail about the Achilles Proc is that it ignores resistance based on level difference. Normally, if you fire a power that puts a 20% resist debuff on an enemy that's 4 levels higher than you, it only experiences a -9.6% resist debuff. Achilles Heel still gives the full -20%. The downside is that if you're fighting enemies 1 level below you, your 20% resist debuff power will actually hit for a -22.2% resist debuff, while Achilles Heel still only hits for a -20% debuff.
Typically, one of your best bets for flooring an enemy's resistance is a /Sonic Blast defender with a primary that also carries a resist debuff, such as Radiation, Sonic, or Storm Summoning, and something you can stick an Achilles Proc into. Even then, the vast majority of things you're fighting are probably going to keel over dead before you can max their -resist, and I'm not sure if a single defender can actually pull it off (well, maybe if they're carrying a level shift from the Alpha Slot and an Ultimate inspiration while facing a GM or AV which already has a negative resistance score against one type of damage, and throw in a Chemical Burn warburg nuke for good measure)
