Quote:I had always thought that 'Solo' in this game had meant 'To achieve a victory or accomplishment through use of powers available to oneself with no aid or interference from other players.'Originally Posted by Ruff_Tuff_n_Buff
What a strange and incorrect definition of soloing. I suppose, per your rules, Masterminds and Illusion people can't claim to have soloed anything because a pet did a lot of work.
Mastermind/Controller/Dominator/Dark Miasma/Patron Pool/Lore Pets are all POWERS of the player, not a contribution from another player. Using them on a GM is still soloing the GM.
Now, JB, if you want to raise the bar and do it on a Tanker without any pets at all, feel free and post the proof. We will all marvel at the achievement.
Until then, let the dude have a victory lap. -
One thing I hear a lot is that KM's animations are long. In reality it's animations aren't, but because of all the fancy motions it really does look and feel longer.
I have a KM/SR Brute based on a speedster concept and she is fun to play. She's been on a back burner for awhile though.
I am an Altohlic. **Cries** -
Although a BS/Regen was the first toon I ever made that was way, way, WAY, back. I had an idea over the past while for a Claws/Regen that I thought I'd post up to see what everyone thought.
Main concern was recharge (With a Core Spirit Alpha) and while I wasn't overly concerned with getting Hasten Perma that happened anyway. Defense was the second concern, got S/L to 30%. Res is at 23% for S/L, not great but good I think. Regen is at 680% until Instant Healing is pushed.
Assault is there for some extra oomph and Veng for whenever I'm on a team.
Achilles' Heel is added for a little -res. I know it can be a very expensive build (3 Purple Sets) but that's for the recharge.
Hope this at least passes muster.

Quote:Sounds like Super Smash Bros.Originally Posted by MrLiberty
That is it, time has come. I challenge your fire corrupter to a dool. HD and TS on, no travel powers. NO RUNNING.
NO ITEMS. FOX ONLY. FINAL DESTINATION. -
So far I still don't have a level 50 scrap. 40+ one, but not 50. I have two 50 Tanks and an MM I may have deleted (Mercs/PD Wasn't that much fun)
-
While I will say using the Lore pets cheapens the achievement it doesn't change it. He Soloed the GM. End of story. All she wrote.
If the devs gives you a power then they do so with the expectation they'll be used, better or worse. Does it mean ATs will be able to do more than before with Inc powers? Damn right.
Good job on the solo! -
Quote:I kinda do it the opposite, I include Purples in my builds in order to create the ideal build. I DO however recommend making sure that you have all the defense possible in your build and any other bonuses you need before grabbing purples.Originally Posted by Breog
PS - Avoid Purple sets... #1 mistake I see so many people do when planning out a Biuld for thier toon. Purples % wise arn't that much better then other sets, but cost 100 times more then the cheaper set. Purple sets really are only for squeezeing every last ounce out of a biuld when you have the cash to do it.
I always plan my biulds in 3 phase sets. Phase 1... the working biuld. Phase 2... after I have a working biuld thats solid, I see were I can refine it some more after playing around with Phase 1 for a bit. Phase 3 is were the Purples sets replace certain sets.... to date 99% of my toons never reach phase 3. Because of Cost vs effectiveness. -
Quote:Point taken, but still I am a player who prefers all possible defense softcapped. Except Psi, but it's a pain in the donkey...Originally Posted by Werner
27.90%
However, I suspect the vast majority of those attacks are melee attacks. Not much consolation when someone hurls a boulder at your head, but at least it should be rare.
Even then I prefer to a) focus on S/L first and b) not rely on DA or Parry to land to get defense. Not becuase it's not viable, it is, I just prefer to go in and not worry about clicking X to maintain Y. I just want it to work all the time.
Funny that I still like SD and SR despite this... -
Another pro to consider for DA/DM, though, is the fact DM's attack inflict To Hit Debuffs. Stacked with To Hit Debuffs from DA you, effectively, increase your defense against attacks.
-
Quote:On a WP your melee will still be much lower than S/L. It depends on if smashing or melee is higher while DA is up.Originally Posted by Auroxis
Only if the punches and hammers are thrown at you.
That said there are still people ripping up chunks of the ground and hurling them. -
Quote:Actually DA only affects Melee and lethal, but not smashing.Originally Posted by Cyber_naut
Consider a kat/wp, it's not very tough to softcap en/neg and fire/cold, and da softcaps melee/sl, then on top of that you have crazy reg, crazy rec and a crashless tier nine, and no psi hole. With the new defense busting stuff in game, you want as many layers to your defense as possible, imo.
So you'll deflect bullets coming at you, but not punches and hammers. -
Usually in Mids I can only softcap Inv Brutes and Scrappers to S/L with one in range and not everything else. Not sure why.
I can pull it off with Tankers easy enough through. Well I have one fully decked out Inv/SS that's softcapped and one Inv/Fire/Fire that's a PvP IO from being softcapped.
My best advise, though, is worry about S/L def first, E/N second and F/C if you can. Assuming you don't gimp your build doing this. -
Quote:Actually you might want the Luck of the Gambler +7.5 Global Recharge to BE at level 50 because it also add to a powers defense. About the same amount of defense as the Defense/Endurance IOs.Originally Posted by Fractious
Just wanted to reiterate something previously said regarding tip missions and the market. Do your 10 tips/1 morality mission, pick up either the Luck of the Gambler +7.5 Global Recharge, Miracle +Recovery or Numina +regen/recovery recipes and get them at the lowest level possible (think its 25 for most, use the slider at the top of the A-Merit trade guy menu). AE ticket the rare salvage (or buy it if you must), build the enhancement, put it up for sale on the market. Those 10 million recipes you were seeing become very easy to purchase after 8 days of doing tips. Reason being, you can get 100 - 150 million with each tip purchased IO. 4 recipes in 8 days will give you 400 - 600 million to play with. I did my toons like this, except I played for a few weeks and did tips on 3 different characters a day. Those crazy (in my eyes) 1 billion influence builds turned into a reality on my favorite characters (now I have 4 or 5 toons with fully tricked out builds, minus the purples and pvp IOs). I am still very proud of my toons and their builds, even though I am now able to just purchase the full IO build in one go.
Fractious
For the record. -
Quote:I disagree about Hasten.Originally Posted by Syntax42
I suggest taking Super Speed for the stealth bonus. Hasten is a must-have for most builds, anyways. With a stealth IO in Sprint, you can be effectively invisible to all critters that don't have perception buffs while running Super Speed and Sprint. For vertical travel, Raptor Packs are available at vendors for 10,000 INF.
It is a very useful and powerful ability, I will give that to you, but I wouldn't label it a 'Must-Have'. I would call it a 'Should-Get' power. The power that you Should Get if you can spare the power slot. One slotted with a recharge it is a very useful and powerful tool.
Of course if you take Super Speed and don't have a 60 month badge, you have no reason NOT to take it. -
I have a KM/SR Brute that's fun to play, and a SS/WP on the back burner.
-
This is a new Scrapper I've been working on. I like her look and concept (I based her off an X-Man character called Surge) and I like the Mids build I have for her. S/L is about 4.5% away from softcap, which should get the job done and if it doesn't I can always pop a purple. Super Speed is the travel power of choice, again, concept. The PvP and IO sets will take time and investment to get, but I always see these form of builds as the ideal to work towards. I coupled Kinetic Combat with a Mako's Bite Acc/End/Rech to make up for KC's short comings. Energize won't be perma, but it'll be up reasonably fast and with Hasten it's about 4 seconds from perma. I have heard some people like to skip Grounded, but it's in for the extra NE resistance, just in case.
For Incarnates it'll be Cardiac Alpha (The EndRed is a bonus, I want the extra Resistance. Between Energize and Power Sink I doubt end was an issue) Ion Core Judgment and either Rebirth Radial or Barrier Destiny. Not sure about Lore or Interface though. Maybe a Radial Lore and Reactive Interface?
Anyhow, here it is.

Quote:I would, personally, advise any player new to CoH to start as a Scrapper. I think it is, over all other ATs, the one that's the easiest to just pick up and play. Sure, other ATs have their pros and cons, but the Scrapper is the easiest AT, I find, to play.Originally Posted by bAss_ackwards
I think Scrappers are one the most solid ATs and have been for a while, if not the most solid AT out there.
Still takes time, experience and understanding to master them, like any AT, but still... -
Quote:Thanks for the build.Originally Posted by bAss_ackwards
I can help you out with the Elec/Elec build! I came up with something that I am very satisfied with. The kind of Regeneration and Endurance Reduction the build gets because of perma-Energize is incredible! Top it off with Rebirth and you'd get an insane amount of HP/sec (682% Regen!) or go with the Barrier Destiny for more Defense/Resist!

Not my style, to be honest, but I took the basic idea and boosted up to 40.5%. -
My own first toon was a BS/Regen. Can't remember the issue, pre-i6 anyway.
Oddly since I quit then returned I've been playing Tankers more than Scrappers. Still right now I have a high level (41) BS/SD Scrapper on a side burner and new Elec/Elec that seems promising. Although in mids I can only get her S/L Def to 35%... Not sure if that's common for scraps or not with a non-def based toon. Maybe I'll post the build for review sometime.
Anyhow, all said if I main Tankers then Scrapper's what I use when I feel different. -

So he would need to pick elemental based powers, and then use a costume with the Heart pattern from the Valentine's Day event.

Quote:I recommend taking Unstoppable because, now and again, it will be useful. I will also say, however, that it is skippable. If you need the slot for something else, dump it.Originally Posted by bAss_ackwards
I've always taken Unstoppable to place a IO in it. The power is worthless to me. With the kind of build I have on my DM/Inv/Blaze, I've never been in a situation where I can say that the crash afterward is worth it for what I'm currently facing.
I really would not have that Regenerative Tissue in there. I highly recommend the Rebirth Radial Destiny power for this build and whatever that IO is able to give you is laughable compared to the Regeneration you'll have permanently with said Destiny power. Instead, use that slot to put a 3% Resist to all on Weave. That will help you out better than adding a drop of water into a bucket already full. You'll be at over 30% on F/C Resist, approaching there with E/N, and hardcapped for S/L. -
From what I've seen Granite is either the 'Oh Snap My Butt is Getting Whooped' power if your getting beaten OR the 'I'm Facing Tower Buffed Recluse/Nictus Rommy/4 Archvillians/Big Bad Mean Thing And I Need to Survive So I Can Hold Aggro' power. It's used when it needed, but if it's not you just leave it off.

Well I have two Inv Tanks, one at 50 (SS) and one at 42 (Fire) that I plan to have Reactive on. The Inv/SS will get core and the Fire will get Radial.
Then I can have both. -
I'm siding with mauk2 on this one. On a blaster, defender or other ranged AT knockback is awesome. On a melee toon, not so much. I was teaming not to long ago with a player's MA/ Scrapper who used Crane Kick. ALOT. On the guy my Tank was smashing. Needless to say it was annoying, particularly since this was an Inv/Fire toon with two AoEs I loved hitting everyone with.
Nuts.
