Some very creative slotting there, seems i will be doing some respeccing since most of my Healths only have 3 slots in them
Thanks for the great tips!

At least one of them can be gotten with merits (250 though O.O).
Maybe 2? Haven't checked Regenerative tissue yet

[/ QUOTE ]

All availible for merits, BUT a warning, you cant get a regenative tissues
from ANY roll, its a lv 10-30 recipe thats either end mission or mob drop
(one of those dont remember witch) so for that one youll either have to
buy it of market or buy it outright with merits. Miracle and numina unique
are pool c (tf/sf pool)

Note also if it is a end mission drop you cant even just Ouro them as all
the end mission ones seem at true lv not exempted lv. Though if it is a
mob drop you might get it but like all the realy good stuff its rare.

I would like to know if anyone either knows or has a link to what the defense and resist soft caps are, and what defense range above the soft caps would be suitable for i13+ pvp.

[/ QUOTE ]

soft cap is 45%, good luck getting that in i13 zones or arena

My fort with full IOs in pve with all powers on is 65% def,
WAY over soft cap, in pvp zones its like 40%, if I then use
a small purple its upped to maybe 43 as apossed to the
75% or so.

As to whats sutable, get to that 40% in pve, will drop to the
low to mid 30s in pvp, that should be ok for most cases.
Though how much healing or other forms of midigation you
have still will also be important.

Ressit caps are by archtype (look on the wiki)
for brutes and tanks its like 90% cap
for squishes like 75% others ...... not sure
nor am I sure this changes much in pvp
BUT squishes do get lots of free RES in
pvp now if they have the APP/PPP shields.

neat things about those IOs if you use numina and miracle uniques
youll have +20% regen and +25% recover, thats the same as a
unsloted stamina (also a +25% recovery boost) and that +20%
regen is about half a unsloted health. (normaly health is a 40%
regen buff) if you add the regenerative tisues unique youll accualy
surpas that base lv of health. (and be better then sloting 3 SO/IOs
in it)

some of the best sloting for health nowadays is
(Regenerative tissued +regen)
(Miracle +recover)(Miracle: heal) {both for more recovery +2.5%}
(Numina +reg/rec)(Numina: heal) {both for more regen +10}
(note also now your health is about 80% moded for more regen
that way)

(and optional (numina or miracle heal/{something})
as that third spot in either is more HP, and will
put your health to the "3 SO" lv of sloting

This sloting will be over a staminas worth of end and
even a none regen will start to regen enough for
you to notice (even more so then just health)

KB can work, just based on how many people I see falling over with my
TK thrust and the KB in shark on my fort. Most do that LoL at eng/eng
but even my blaster can PvP, just not as well as my fort but the fun is
pvping the toon you want, not always the one that will get the most kills.

(course my fort also loaded with mezzes to help it but that stun from /eng
might be what it takes to have fun with it)

How effective do you think it would be if you placed a Gaussian: Chance of BU in Tactics and a Decimation: Chance of BU in a fast activating attack?

[/ QUOTE ]
It would help some, but not a ton, at that point it would likely be worth it though.

[ QUOTE ]
I always thought this game was set to GNR, Van Halen, Boston, Journey, and the Eagles.

[/ QUOTE ]
maybe yours is mine is set to Within Temptation, Evanesence, Pink Floyd,
Darude, Switchblade Symphony, Paul Vandyke, Tool and bunch of others

[/ QUOTE ]

I dont have arcanaville's resume but I do have an accounting degree,
and work as an auditor. Course this dissution realy is a matter of
personal prefference, most of those posting that aim/bu is better for
them do say that in tactics it will fire more. And atleast some of the
tactics crowd do agree that pin point accuacy of when the trigger is
activated (as much as you can for a 5% to triger proc) can be help-
ful for spiking.

I'll try an state things a little differently, you looking for DPS, place in Tactics
looking for control burst put in BU or Aim. looking for both put in Follow up

All are perfectly fine ways of doing it and in each case they do have there
own quirks. As its a sloting question there realy is no wrong answer, only
the desires of the one doing the sloting realy matter.

To mad scientist, though I'm in the tactics crowd myself I can compleatly
understand the aim/bu crowd, and though they won't get the porc's we get
there is deffinaly a logic to there sloting.

Jonny I don't think your wrong to think that but let me point out a few things
first if you 6 slot (after all that def bonus is that awsome on a def toon, and
even some none def toons) the set you have about 3 SOs of to hit and 2 SOs
of reduced end and 2 of recharge so already your not doing as great on rech
as a set like adjusted targeting. Now this makes little difference in a power
like Tactics but in a Aim or BU that is on a base 90 second timer it does.

Course lets just assume a sec that you only use the proc, after all not all
build for full sets. And well even say you've got a rechage intensive build
with Aim every 30 seconds, thats still a proc 1/3 as often as youd get in
tactics. True that one in Tactics could be going unused, but with 3 times
the likely hood to activate I'll take those odds, as this also assumes you
use aim literaly every time it comes up to be only 1/3 as bad if you wait
and only use it once every min (or if your build was less intensive in rec)
then your only procing 1/6 as often.

There is one power that I can't fault anyone for a second for puting this
proc in "Follow up" (or other simmilar powers). These click powers that
are less then 20 seconds without sloting are insainly great places for this
proc, if you dont want the set bonus. Because with sloting a 20 second
rechage power will be like 12-6 seconds on average so you'll likley be
procing even more then the Tactics situation, and like Jonny said you will
know when you wanted it to proc in this type of click power over tactics.
But IMO only if you have that type of speed in rechage is it worth it, Aim
and BU with thier 90 second timers I don't consider.

[ QUOTE ]
Couple of other questions

(1) I assume that these scale down when exemped as other sets do, but do set bonuses from these remain even when exemping down?

(2) Is any of this information available 'officially' and I just am not looking in the right place?

[/ QUOTE ]

paragon wiki as ussual has it all,

Yes when exempted down purples get hit with the scalling rules of normal
IO's/SO's BUT any and all set bonuses (purple or not) never change value
you either get it or you don't (and in purples case always get it (even if the
power is not availble))

just a FYI lv 1 with my blaster is a joke now I've got like 45% global
acc so I dont miss (yes thats 3 sets of purples with acc in it )

...... No .......
I hope we never see switching side's personaly. Also as your new you might
not know this, but this suggestion is brought up often. Use of search might
help in the future.

[ QUOTE ]
Could this proc be placed in Tactics from the leadership pool, and if so how does is work? Does it have a chance to go off every few seconds, or jsut when i activate itor what?

[/ QUOTE ]
If my toon has tactics there is a very stron change a 6 set of guaus is being placed
there the set is just that good, the proc is just gravy. The 10 sec chance to fire has
already been answered.

[ QUOTE ]

You don't have the math right.

There has to be about a 50% chance that the total value of all 12 random recipes will be worth the same as a LOTG for people to be motivated to take the random rolls.

(This is discounting the opportunity cost of waiting till you have 250 merits rather than getting a random recipe everytime you have 20, but let's ignore that for now)

A 50% chance that the total of all the 12 recipes will be worth 1 LOTG. Several of the other recipes in the 30s range (remember, you can choose your level range) regularly go for 7-15 million, especially the procs usable in aoe powers, the Numinas and Miracle Uniques go for quite a bit more, probably around 50 or 60 percent of a LOTG alone.

There's also a nonzero chance that you would, with 12 random rolls, get multiple LOTG or other valuable procs or uniques. If you have a 50% chance of making less than half what one LOTG is worth, but also a 5% chance of making triple, that means some people will go for the randoms - like playing the lottery.

[/ QUOTE ]

your thinking numina for that 250 lotg is 200

BUT in this new merit world will that LotG cost 50 mil (hero). If so many people
start making them with merits, there cost should fall, I wouldn't be surprized to
see LotG costs fall below 40 mil (villain side) and 30 mil (hero) so using that 50
mil price is only good for like 1 week, or two tops. Then you would have to re-
evaluate the "cost" as so much pricing will be moving in both C and D pools I'll
guess.

first off better to put this in player questions then guild section

But you might want to check talor, if he says come back at lv 30 you
might have done this (with the auto compleate, likely you helped
someone else)

note that your first costume cant add capes, were still hoping for a
"buttcape" soon. (but no offical word on it in ages)

It should be your first contact that give mission alan if not mistaken
(been a while since ive been there )

((if you were a soldier they yave a cape on there lv 1 slot (possible
anyway, and if they go crab they loose all cape possibilities))

Fixed it for ya
(I love that emote)

I go on record in this offical thread, I'm unhappy for ANY pay for package
thats not bought at a local store (like best buy) especily these little teaser
packs with costumes and emotes. I did by the wedding one and will likely
get this one (though FAR less intersted in it, im anti teck hero stuff)

Just putting my voice down as one that doesn't like paying out side of monthly
fees. (or BIG expensions)

having issues with both decimation: chance for build up and gaussian's: chance for build up.

i see them proc in my combat log yet don't recieve the buff. >.>

[/ QUOTE ]

have the gaussians in my mains build if you watch the combat #'s for to hit
and damage you will see it activate (though infrequently), I checked it on my
toon not more then 4 days ago, just sat around with tactics on till it proced
and did find it working properly (decimation not sure about i dont use that one)

soulbound allegaince would only show up if your moneriting that pets
to hit and damg # (its pet only)

Mmm about your sloting on some defences (like shadow fall)
if you have a bots/dark, you have a LOT of potentail +def for
you and your bots. I have one (lv 41 currently) with my protector
bots, shadows fall, and manuvers I have a lot of +def, add in
hover and BS sheild if I've sloted my def I'll be near the soft cap.
My bots will be nice to if I add the + def unique with all that DEF
(also near that soft cap (or low enough to be noticable)

Mmm wave you and me seem to be on the same page for ENG/ENG
im also HP capped, have over 300% base regen, some +def from IOs
also capped fly and fast running /hover, course my build is 22 purples
now and build for acc and recover most of all (build on blaster boards)
might be worth a look

One warning in your guild. You talk of sloting armagegon at lv 47,
that is a purple recipe, and yes its lv 50, but also can only be sloted
by a lv 50. (unlike all none purple lv 50 IOs)

Your guild does seem solid, though not all servers will be able to run some
of those TFs so easily. (as another poster pointed out quarterfeild is particluarly
tough to get filled)

Course I'm more one of those that don't mind the PL broadcasts in PI.
I know that not all have the time I've spent on my Blaster and if they
want to PL its there 15$ and there inflencue/infame let them play how
they want *shrugs* never understood the PL hate.

To High Beam,

Thank you for this guide its has helped me get my badges and now 36 arcs later
I've done the "challenges" part (I ran a few more then needed. ) Infact now I'm
just down to 3 badges for all of the i12 badges. (hero side) Only MotSTF and 2 for
numbers of arcs (45 and 50 arcs) badges left to go, fortunatly another Justice
badger helped point me in direction of a fast badge mission.

To help your readers its psi-clock king in the 40-45 range just dont use any
restrictions and do use LOTS of pills for a easy EB (atleast is for my blaster)

Ill add a nice sloting i found for TF for you to think about
how about 4 slot Mako (all 4 that have dam in them)
and 2 slot absolute amazment, the stun only IO and the tri IO.
you end with (if useing 50s in the mako)
like 93% dam, 78 % acc, 71 % stun, 71% rec, and 45% red end

Plus some nice set bonuses

like i said just a though but does work well on my blaster
(absolute amazment helping the decent stuns realy last )
