  1. Why would you want aid self that early and travel power that late?

    Portal Question

    That would need to go to suggestions forum i guess, no chance at the moment to do that :S

    Yep. As I noted in my guide, with Dull pain up and accolades, you can pull in over 3000HP at level 50.

    I use it, and the difference in survivability is astonishing, especially at the high end.

    Just tested it (I happened to be farming damage badge) 3212.7 HP for Hammerfall. Regen rate approx 22.5 hp per second with slotted health. Dull pain is simply one of the most important invul powers.
  4. Hmm its a tough one.. I cant think of anything else than dropping indeed stealth and SS.. I have bit similar trouble myself..

    Not for PvE, unless you're fighting heavy Mez groups.
    It's not needed much for PvP either, but it helps and gives SR an edge over the other scrapper secondary sets.

    If you mean does it need to stack, then yeah, not absolutely necessary, since it can't be perma-stacked. I have not noticed a particular need with my nin stalker that has identical power (kuji-in-Rin). As long as PB is perma it is good. (I have put it on auto and click hasten when i need to.)
  6. MoG..is über? Since when?

    Well as much as I'd like to see it like that but my personal experiences contradict what you said.. And quite frankly I havent even raided that much. Test server mainly.

    I have tried and tried to get something like this to happen with my SG but ultimately organising those damn raids takes too long time and Im getting disillusioned. Hit my head against a brick wall quite enough many times.

    The random spawn point might have made it easier for smaller number of raiders to penetrate..I don't know. I can't really get myself interested in these stupid raids anyway.
  7. I currently solo on villainous with my lvl 29 dom. I propably could do it with highest setting but its slow enough on villainous even.
  8. recap:

    Telepads are salvage items, have to be built with basic forge/worktable. To place a telepad you need to use 'add personal item'.

    Telepad beacons have to be unlocked by collecting explo badges in SG mode. After they are unlocked they are found in the teleport-section of base editing menu for transport rooms.

    In fact, for a PvE brute I'd say grounded is far better than Acro, since it has Stun prot.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If im not mistaken you already get disorient prot from static shield.

    Just tested, duration is not affected, couldn't test magnitude since did not have an AV available and both bosses and EB's were made intangible even with unslotted black hole.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I have always wondered what exactly are those intangibility enhancements for...
  11. Only things to avoid with blasters are maybe weak AoE attacks á la rain of fire or lightning field. Those mainly get you aggro and not do much damage. Just collect the biggest damage attacks you can get and slot them well, can't go much wrong there.

    Advice:
    - get build up and aim if possible
    - do not neglect melee attacks - Blasters are about damage, regardless how they do it.

    Grounded alone is quite fine for PvE.

    defiance removes brutes very easily :P

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Not quite so simple but brutes are less hardy than they think normally.

    I'd still think any build/AT could take out an even level player under Hold within 20 seconds though. Possibly the reason that certain AT's dominate PvP is that they can still operate effectively solo; Stalkers being the prime case.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    You might have something there, but the bottom line is that an AT is not bad in PvP even if it can't solo somebody. I love the way support toons work in this game.

    Push yes, thrust no. I, on the other hand only once tried push on my blaster so I dont know how good it is in KBing grounded brutes.

    Don't think im gonna be bothered testing out power push with power boost on test server as Im defo not getting it for my dom on live. Somebody else can do that.

    As Ive said before Ive got 2 lv 50 /elec brute, 1 of which has 275 PvP rating mainly from soloing. If u want to show me how Im "gimped" without acro and not a "true PvP build", then we can meet on test, contact @dark pulvatizer.


    [/ QUOTE ]
    First, I don't remember saying you or I or anyone was gimped. I said that acro is recommended for PvP brutes.

    Meeting on test server sounds cool. Contact me at @Hammerfall both on live and test. I just need to check which of my characters on test has the up-to-date build.

    [ QUOTE ]

    Oh and btw, energy Doms DO get power thrust

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You might want to re-check that. Doms get power burst, not power thrust.

    Strange. I could swear I've been held for over a minute. I know Malta can perma-stun you with Tasers. Perhaps like Quilty said it's different levels.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    'Between holds' ie. if a single hold (afaik the hold that will break thru your mez resistance if you have any) has a duration of 1 minute then you will be held for minute and suppression will kick in when that wears off. I don't really know enough hold durations to know how likely secnario this is and im too tired to check..

    Hold suppression doesnt apply to PvE afaik.
  18. Hey since i know youre now a member of the defiant pvpers channel, remember to ask for duels on that channel if you want some
  19. I recommend you guys to /bug it ingame as well. I did.

    Yeah, of course theres an in-character reason to controlling the zone, but I was referring to actual rewards since thats what the grinders are usually after

    But it's not just for the hell of it. Maybe they were competing for control of the zone (as the developers intended when they made the zone), or maybe they were there for the increased prestige you get during the reset.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why would you want to control the zone anyway? If im not mistaken theres few rewards for it..
  22. [ QUOTE ]

    True, but a 30 second hold, with a 1 second margin to get away followed by another 30 second hold is close enough.

    If they have a team-mate, 30 seconds is MORE than enough to get any AT killed, if it lands.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You know what suppression is? Mez suppression exists to prevent permaholding in pvp.

    But, like I said, you can hold something long enough to kill it in most cases, team pvp at least.

    Like I said use there weakness against them send a MM through with a invinc shield they all hit him while the others spawn at a different point. This will pull them out of position.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I wonder what shield are you thinking about. My blaster can two-shot a petless MM through personal forcefield. Only phase shift will help but they cant summon in that state (nor in pff either).
  24. Gah, you were right, it isnt attached.. Looks like they forgot to add it to the turbine generators allowed auxiliary items list..
  25. [ QUOTE ]


    why do you want the energy curtain? IIRC it isn't compatible with the Turbine generator, only the basic one..

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Incorrect cause we already got one with turbine generator in Goonies base..
