Quote:Thanks for the info and link didnt think of trying Paragon Wiki for D info, gettin late. Also I am sure the link answers the question but I didnt 100% get it, if a mob toss's a power that does Fire/Smash and I have 30% Smashing resist no matter if its range or melee I still have a 30% change to avoid/dodge it even though its fire damage also?
-
Been wondering about this since I got back into the game a few months ago, Do they stack at all? As in if I have 30% S/L Def and 30% Melee Def does that bring me up to a 60% in some sort of way if they are hitting me with S or L damage melee attack?

Thanks for the ideas, Tried +0/x8 without bosses was a bit easy with my MM. When I log on tonight Ill try the +2/X2 Boss as my Pets can take down a single target pretty fast and I have enough CC to keep em locked most of the time.
Also to those saying "depends on the AT" and such if you read my OP I say the build in question is a Demon/DM MM. -
I would Say a Mind/Fire/Fire Dom and a Fire/Kin Corrupter. Could take anything not sure about GM though...

Quote:This is XP only and Pre 40. Generally looking for Advance on lvling up my MM but kinda looking in general peoples experience for lvling solo which Diff is best. Good Info so far keep it up =)I'm guessing it can vary with different characters, but generally for farming the best rewards solo (inf/minute) was running at +3/x8 with no bosses. Now, I haven't tested it out yet, but with a level shift the best difficulty might actually be +4/x8 with no bosses.

I have not been able to find a guide or a chart for this yet but was wondering.....
What is the best +/X for gaining xp solo. While yes I know +4/8 or as much as you can handle.
Build in question is a Demon/DM MM around 28, I do -1/x8 very well but I do run into snags here and there but they are few and far. Questioning is would I gain better xp doing +1/x6? +4/x2? Etc etc. A Guide or a Chart for xp gained vs the Diff would be great but personal exp imo is almost as good. Thanks in Advance -

Does the +1 to our lvl from Level Shift effect our pets at all? Would our Big guy become 51?

I was in the same boat as you, Wife wants to play melee, RL Friend 1 wants to play a MM and RL Friend 2 wants to play a Brute so I was suck as the "healer" type which I dont mind I picked Fire as well b/c well...I like fire.
Now you need some healing as a secondary....
Nice buffage specially adding damage is great right?
How about adding 50% recharge to your friends to make there powers come back?
Debuffing Damage on a enemy is nice too specially 20% aoe and a stacking 20% to a single target...
Oh some Spd for yerself so you can fly/run faster and have a faster recharge maybe even save a power and grab a aoe super jump...
Dont forget fulling up your teamates endo so they dont need to stop is great as well...
But what secondary has all this you say?
Kin my friend Kin
I love my Fire/Kin Corrupter and so does my wife and friends as I add every fight at least 200% to there damage and +50% to there Recharge along with a sick aoe heal and aoe Endo heal(works on yerself also). The more mobs the more damage % you can add up and its easy to cap out the damage. Only Issue I have with my Corrupter is Mez specially Stun and Sleep but as your friend is a Trap MM he has FF Generator which gives ya Stun protection and sleep is not to bad as when you get hit you are freed.
Not having a Rez is not a issue also as there are Temp powers you can craft and a Daily Job that gives you charges of it. Also the AoE heal is more then most Single Target heals and its on a 8s recast, only issue is it has to hit a mob and does the aoe heal around him which I find great as I am normally in the mix as well as most of the ppl I need to keep alive.
Once you go Kin you dont go back(maybe for dark but its a hard choice) -
Quote:Yea this is what I am thinking just wanted to make sure there was nothing I was missing or didnt know about that I could fit in the fire/kin build. I love Kin(and so does my wife and friends) so no /sonic traps and such for me though I thought of that as well.Best option would be to accept that you have holes in your build that may not be possible to cover and use inspirations to cover those holes (Break Frees, in this case). There is no shame in using inspirations - that's what they're there for.
Guess I got 3 Strats..
1. Kill them Before they Mez me(works most of the time but Multi Rikti Mez'ers suck)
2. Soft Cap Ranged D
3. Break Free if it all fails
Thanks for the Advice. -
Ahh sorry was late, Fire/Kin/Elec
Then only issues I have is with Stun/Disorient and sleep, no idea how to add more resists or even protection for it with a corrupter as a Fire/Kin Other then with the small bonuses from sets. Just wondering if I am overlooking any powers or even sets that give a good bonus. -
So I have been racking my brain on how to make my Corrupter a bit less squisy.
Soft Cap Defense...Not done yet but possible...<Check>
55% S/L Resistance(with 30% Energy to boot)...<Check>
KB Protection...<Check>
Immbo Protection...<Check>
Hold Protection...2 Pnts its ok would like more
Stun Protection....errm no...also have no idea how to raise this on a corrupter.
Sleep Protection...another no and no idea how to increase
Now If ya didnt follow I am asking for ways to increase Stun/Sleep protection(would be best) or resists. Other then the Self-Heal in the Med line and some minor % for resist that I know of I dont know how to fix my Mez issue other then with Breakfrees.
....Help -

Quote:Yea I guess I just assumed if they farmed well then any aspect of the general game they would be good in, or I just went in with a thought of Hey its like my Fire/Kin Corrupter. I thought about Ill/Kin but I'm not really a pet type of person. Guess I will just have to put the build on the back burner for now. At least if I am soloing.I am not exactly sure what rage you have been listening. I have been saying since i6, when I rolled a fire/rad, and since i7, when he hit 50:
Fire/Kin hype is just related to farming. They farm well. Even back then, they were not the fastest, since some tanks could farm other maps/mishs and get a lot more. Specially built fire/fire blasters would also farm better... hero side.
They are terrible toons to solo 1-31 or even 1-37. My fire/rad and mind/kin solo'd a lot better and smoother than a fire/kin would. My ill/rad will leave both of them in the dust and would compete with scrappers for speed in 1-50soloing.
Don't go back to Dominators because of an experience with fire/kin. You want to be impressed with a solid controller to solo? Try an illusion controller. Want to pair it up with /kin? Play an ill/kin. An illusion controller, with /rad, especially, will be an awesome solo controller. Take one of those and call me back in about 3-4 months. :-) -
So hearing all the rage about Fire/Kin Controllers and such I decided to roll one as I have been playing a Fire/Kin Corrupter and thought hey good dps and CC..I'm there!
Well lvl 20 so far and yes I know that 20 levels do not define an AT but I'm just getting bored and tired of playing this guy. Sure ever since I got my Aoe Root I can handle +0/x8 spawns myself and at a lower lvl they died fairly fast...but now its slowwww going and if I fight anything that is a boss or has mez protection/resistance god forbid if they have both it takes ages for me to kill it. While yes this is all solo and if grp'd this build is fun, I tend to short man or solo alot
So am I missing something, yes FS is great at adding dps but it takes me a bit to take down a full spawn and even longer to do single targets. Bonfire is great but its pretty much it untill I hit APP/PPP and while yes these abilities are nice and will add dps I just dont see me doing much untill then. So untill 41+ its grp based and powerlevel I guess.
Dominator here I come! -

Quote:Dont think I could keep the attention for leveling a Troller, at high lvls with APP and everything it sounds fun. Just at low lvls and mid lvls I dont think I could do enough damage to keep it intresting for me. Will prob keep a Plant/Kin Troller in the back of my mind if I ever get the chance for a PL but for fun lvling I dont think it would be my cup of tea.What is this "OR" you speak of? All (ok, not all, all the ones I like) of my Corruptors have softcapped ranged, s/l, and energy, and close to neg as well.
Both are speed demons, but trollers have an edge in safety/survivability. I'd be interested in seeing two optimized builds going head to head.
Of course a SS/Fire brute can do it just about as well for much cheaper, with much higher survivability than both when it comes to farming things according to their own particular idiom.
So guess I will lvl up a Brute, currently have a SS/DA one I'v been playing and SS is fun but unsure about DA looks nice but I am a Endo hog. -
Fire/Kin Vs Fire/Kin here(unless ya got another powerset) for General Farming.
While Trollers can walk in and control the spawn and take em down, my Corrupter runs in FS and Nukes or RoF+FB+FB..etc etc kills without much of an issue.
Anyone have both that can toss me a little experience between the two?
And yes I do enjoy farming and kinda looking for the best overall toon for farming/pl(as I always have to pl my wife's new guys and give her influence).
Can a Fire/Kin Troller keep my attention with its dps like my Corrupter does? -
Looking for some Melee Dom Builds, I have a Mind/Fire Dom that is fun as well as a Fire/Kin Corrupter so looking for something with some melee but still ranged(pure melee gets boring for me).
Thinking so far...
/thorn and /earth are great melee but looking for some options on Prim and if there are any other melee options. -
I have fell in love with /kin on my Fire/Kin Corrupter just love this guy to death very fun to play and have finally gotten him to 44 so with Elec mastery+fighting I have some nice resistance to take a few hits. I play in a static group with a few rl friends and my wife.
Now my friends dont play healer types at all so I'm normally stuck there which I dont mind and recently got my wife into the game(we all just got back into the game and this is the first time me and her playing together instead of just on one account) and she plays a healer type here and there but has gotten a real kick out of melee types lately so I am kinda thrown back into a healer AT and yes I know a Healer is not needed but it is nice as we like to take more then we can handle.
Now the question is other then Fire(as I have a Fire corrupter and have played a fire dom) what are some good small team and solo prims that couple well with /kin(like anything doesn't).
Thanks in advance.
