    New Judgements?

    Devs did infer that more Judgments might happen. This might not have been their intention, or they focused on getting out a lot of new Lore trees instead(I expected maybe 4 more, and we got 12).

    I hope more Judgment tree do happen as I have some characters of which none of the current trees fit concept-wise.

    This is correct.

    It is worth mentioning, while most Lore Pets have a 15 min recharge; Partial Radial Improved Ally(support than can attack) and Radial Superior Ally(Very Rare Boss and untouchable support) only have a 10 min recharge.
  3. For the set's cost, it is not remotely worth getting.
  4. By the title I thought this was about Archery.

    That just might. However, you then have to wait another 15 min before you could swap back.

    Still brings the TF to a screeching halt waiting for nighttime.

    Any news about adjusting Council in Boomtown(Where they are continually being slaughtered by 5th--which don't count for the TF), and Vahzilok in Faultline(limited to one underground garage)?
  11. My Sonic/Sonic Defender only ever 2-slotted. My Grav/FF Controller 4 slotted. It usually comes down to bases numbers(Defenders are higher) and what set bonuses I'm after.

    3 slot will probably be enough. +Def or +Res is the most important to slot for, with End and Rech reductions secondary(if at all).

    There size was somewhat unexpected, but I'd forgotten they were that small when they appeared in the Winter Lord's Realm.

    Still, they are generic enough that they fit for more than a few of my toons.

    Now the Robot Drones...I admit I expected Battle Drones instead of the Vet Pet.

    The portal used to dismiss too. They've more or less fixed it, but it still dismisses on occasion.

    Which makes for a more durable toon - soft capped S/L or Ranged Defense? Opinions and reasons?
    Smash/Lethal and Ranged Def are really different beasts.

    Typed Defense(Ranged, Melee, AoE) is often preferred for defense because it covers more attacks types. However, Melee Def is difficult to cap, so most folks go for softcapping Smash/Lethal as many melee attacks are Smash(punches) or Lethal(Swords and Blades).

    Myself, I'd go for Ranged Def first as there is always some shooting at you. If you're scrappy you're taking down those in Melee with you. If you're Blast-ty stay at range and shoot anyone who gets close first.

    Although, if you can do both, do so. Defense is always good to have.

    I'm disappointed with it because it just isn't up all that often (every 2 mins).

    Is there a better choice for DOMs?

    My DOM is a perma dom plant/fire with capped S/L def (if that is helpful to the decision process).
    Rebirth Radial is a much better choice than Core.

    No. Confuse powers are not flagged to aggro. I've done this many, many times. WoC without a proc slotted will not aggro. With any proc, it will(when the proc successfully fires).

    They will aggro if they see you, like trying this without stealth.
  22. It is my experience that Contagious Confusion aggros all effected enemies. I have tested it again and again using it in World of Confusion and 65' Stealth. The Bosses and Lieutenants will not be confused by Mag 2, and never aggro. They do become confused by the Proc. Shortly after that, all enemies now aggro on me. This happens consistently.

    Peter David wrote this into X-factor. Siryn's father(Banshee) had been killed--when she receives the news--she laughs. She doesn't believe he's actually dead--even when there IS a body--because death and resurrection have happened so often.
