    The 'superior' bit, would that mean it increases base damage? O.O

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Dis is phat yo!

    If you slot this IO into a power it makes it Superior damage, so on a /nrg blaster it's gonna rock in Power Thrust, be like ET!

    Now THIS I simply refuse to believe..

  3. That looks like either Proc damage or a big damage enhancement you could slot to any type of power..

    I did one the other night but I didn't know what I was doing really - do you get something for doing more than one? (PvP newb)

    The warhead temps are useful in number of situations (STF/LRSF, base raids, and other big pvp spring into mind).

    Also you get a badge for launching the rocket enough many times.

    i have this contact unlocked as well but u need 8 gd friends or 8 ppl who u can put 15-30mins of faith into

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Illusion troller with superior invis and recall friend is very useful on this one. Add deceive and you dont have to even beat Koago to finish the trial

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think you misunderstood what i said.Most of PvPers imho that choose to step in a pvp zone at 50 are fully slotted "at least" with COMMON IO's i didnt refer to sets.Sets is a totally different story. But most out there step in pvp zones with full common IO's.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well I didnt have full common IOs either... cba. Plus some of my toons didnt have money to make the common IOs..

    Once, when I was being sceptic, Imaginary challenged me to a match where he had a invul/EM tanker, and I had a team of 2: my en/en blaster and my friend playing empath defender. 1vs2 that is. He came close beating my friend, I came close beating him, but neither happened and the match was 0-0 on 10 minutes. Imag being slowed by snow storm and all.

    This was long time ago though.

    On a related note: good invul/EM tanker is one of the scariest opponents I have faced in a duel with my blaster. Mini-Jump regularly beat me in duels and I dont think I have beaten him to this date. Im fairly certain I could force a draw today though.

    ps. And I also answered to your post dated 29 sep 2007 previously.

    No PvPers steps in zone with SO's.Your comparison is pretty useless here.

    Youre going bit too far on occasion even though I generally agree with what you say.

    And Shannon, you obviously don't have a clue about PVP so I'd try avoid making laugh out of yourself tbh.

    "Due to losing" just hugely stupid sentence. Only kills count. I wonder when are they gonna change football so that other team is ruled the winner in 0-0 situation because "they were obviously winning".



    On the other hand, pvp melee characters who know what they are doing should pretty much always draw a match between themselves 0-0 unless someone makes a mistake. Brutes seem weaker than any other melee toon though..

    Aid self on a invul is pretty useful, I have it on my main.

    The above is to get round the 10 minutes between pvp kills problem.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think the suppression only counts for pvp rep, not anything else.. I recently noticed for example that sirens bounty does not suppress at all.. You can keep killing same person and gain bounty. Im not entirely sure whats the deal with the SG badge though.

    Well imo you have fun if you fight people relatively at your own lvl.

    You learn if you fight people above your own level.

    Controller PB is you need 2 more powers in order to get it does from the epic pool does 186% buff

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Fixed that for you.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Huh 186? Builder gives it as a 119.2% to self and same value to multiple?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    For PB(U), trollers have a higher modifier (1.25 instead of 1 for defenders) and the buff is Modifier * (1 + 0.01*[Level - 1]). So it's 186% for trollers (at level 50) and 149% for defenders.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If I'm not mistaken defenders still get higher total value because of higher base values in the buffs. Not by much though.

    Actually a lot of debuffs do. Sonic Blasts, for example, do. So do Dark Blasts. But their durations are so low its hard to ramp it up meaningfully for long.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    This is true. The attack debuffs usually are in the 5-10 second range so its not usually possible to stack a lot of them from the same power though.

    As people have said before there are different advantages of being an ill/troller. You get PA to make coordinating attacks harder, you get invis + a free pool if you want to take leadership etc. And dont forget powerboost.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Defenders also get power boost.. In fact a better one..
  19. Lose leadership pool and get aid self. I can't imagine dominator in pvp without it, but on the other hand I havent pvped that much with my domi ( who is missing aid self at the moment and I wish I had it)

    And... can SOMEBODY tell me what is the fascination with leadership pool? I see it on nearly every pvp build and their dog these days..
  20. [ QUOTE ]
    And iirc, knockback and knockdown are two aspects of the same thing, the difference I believe is something like how much the power's magnitude exceeds your protection. But I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than me can clarify that....

    This is true to my knowledge. However, I dont know the exact mechanic.

    EM power thrust is 16.6 btw.

    Ballistas also use repulsion field, although in normal case thats not very strong. I don't know how different the elite boss version is though.

    Ultraviolet. They're full of those OMG NO INSP U COWARD CM IS OVERPOWERED NERF EMAPTHS type of idiots, who think they're gods gift to pvp and won't even go NEAR an arena to back up what they say.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Oh lol. I remember me and Sero once beat their SG to submission by ourselves in warburg (me with a stalker, Sero with a brute).. Another time they had managed to beat the Gathering team in sirens call. The conflict then escalated to Recluses Victory where UV tactically switched to villains cause they apparently were afraid of facing the Gathering Corrs at lvl 50.. I switched to Captain Skyfire and had some good hero vs villain fights in there.

    Drama!

    Also don't know for sure but maybe the NPA might be interested as well.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I was asked yesterday if Retribution were merging with NPA...

    ...who?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    1st i've heard of it. NPA are a 'pvp' SG that roams sirens. Globey asked them for an arena match last week and they said they don't pvp in the arena

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Nahahaha. There's one of those on Defiant, too. Apparently Arena PvP is incredibly unfair compared to Zones.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    There is? Which SG?

    Why make a new post, when one allready existed?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I have always wondered some forum rules that forbid digging up old dead threads and forbid making new threads when old topic already exists. Does that mean you cannot discuss something when it has already been discussed. I second Ext in this case though.
  24. Now I gotta know.. who dropped kill?
  25. You are also assuming that all your toggles stay on constantly in pvp. The enemy team might have some objections to your empath's continued breathing let alone running toggles like sprint. If you need to quickly retoggle everything its one less power to activate if you don't have to click sprint.

    However, I think stealth+stealth io on a empath defender would be better than a ill/emp empath with super invis.. We all know why ill/emps were popular some time ago. However, should they decide to attack, ie. take advantage of the primary, they are in same boat with weaker buffs than the defender version. Plus defenders got buffs at lower levels.
