    Hi there and welcome to the CoH/CoV universe
    Tell us a little bit about your character. Archetype and so on. Coz you can always join one of the SG's in the "1at Coalition" which is one SG for each archetype who's all in coalition with each other. Which means we chat, team and stuff between the SG's. It's like a community in itself
    Anyway. Glad to see some people start up on the forums when they start playing

    Welcome!

    Ice is interesting but remember to quicksave before every fight.

    Fire gives more resistance to energy and toxic and far more resistance to fire, slighest less resistance to ice than invul. Can eaily reach resist cap to smashing/lethal, same as invul altho for this u need tough if u chose fire.

    [/ QUOTE ]You can hardly hit 75% resistance to S/L with Fire Shield + Tough, not to mention capping it..
    Invulnerability has a built in Knockback Resistance wich fire doesn't have, not a must but it surely helps when fighting CoT and nemeses and you won't need to get Leaping pool to have some protection to Knockback...

    As for the melee, i would suggest as X said, Fire if you're goin for area of effect attacks and energy if you're goin for single targets.

    SS has a good mix of AoE (the most cool looking in the game bar PB Flares) and single target(again the most cool looking punch in the game)and it looks pretty damn cool!!!

    Chilling Embrace and Invincibility have never made ToHit rolls AFAIK.

    [/ QUOTE ]But they don't do dmg while Icicles have to make the tohit roll cos it's dmg.
  7. On sunday i'm deffo up for this one!
    Jiaozy - Copntroller - Still lvl 50..
  8. Philosophy: the only way to speak for century and never say something useful about the thing you're talkin about.
  9. Good, so far we have the following line-up:

    J. Brute - lvl 44 - Tanker
    Double Shade - lvl 50 - Warshade
    Gilgameesh - lvl 50 - Tanker
    Morgan Le Fey - lvl 50 - Blaster
    Stryker - lvl 50 - Defender
    Lucky Mark - lvl 50 - Tanker

    Thene there are 2 more people on the "maybe" list: Kinslayer and Mr. Knockout, so we ufficially need 2 more people that are sure to make this to start this TF!
  10. Dammit, can't make it for friday, got problems with work, so my spot is free...
  11. Meh, not during the TF :\
    Bad luck, can we have a second session on sunday?
  12. LoL, me and Mr. KO have been the sole tankers online for ages in the AC if not for some little return to the heroic side of Rock Eagle and yesterday all of a sudden there were 4 tank online from AC and 3 of them were in same team... °_°"

    Tank question(s)

    Ok, forget what I said..
    After some testing and thanks to Dr.Rock sustainable damage calculator I've found out that Res Energies and Resist elements add very few to your survivability and that weave, combat jumping and invincibility stacked can give you a lot more survivability.
    I tested it out on the test server with both my old build and my new one and i can say that the difference is huge..

    Thusfar i have: Res Physical Dmg, Temp Invuln, Unyielding, Invincibility and Tough Hide from Invulnerability, plus Tough and Weave all 3 slotted for Defense/Dmg Res..

    According to Dr. Rock my average sustainable dps is 494,15 while without Weave but with REl and REn it was 366,58..

    So despite what I said before DROP REl and REn and 6 slot Weave(3 def buff and 3 end red cos of his damn high end cost)!

    I kept RPD because it adds loads to the sustainable dmg havin the S/L dmg res capped, cos those 2 types of dmg are the most common in the game...

    I really hope Dr.Rock calculations are correct(wich i trust they are)or else I'll have wasted a respec! xD

    I would love to bring my pb along so it is the 15th yeah? and I could probably get my mate to bring his 32 blaster (lvl 32 not 32 blasters )

    [/ QUOTE ]Cool, 4 full team of Blasters °_°'
    Sign me in for this one either with my lowly troller(most likely) or my WS.....
    But now that i think about it, I'm not likely to plant as my WS, so, troller it is!!!
  15. Jiaozy

    WS V PB

    PB is more powerful as you start cos you have 2 regen powers(dull pain and reconstruction)and thus far more survivability than a WS, but from what I know, the WS gets far more powerful in the late levels due to Eclipse and the pets..
    I got bored of my WS before getting Eclipse, but all those that managed to get there said that after that it's a breeze getting to 50...The only problem are the first 38 lvls.... -.-'
  16. If you're in no haste to get the badge you can do it the 17th with us all: Clicky!!
    Otherwise good luck!

    Tank question(s)

    [ QUOTE ]
    Hero Planner numbers must be out of date then, I was sure that I could get up to 92% resist to S/L with those. Oh well, back to drawing board.

    So no slotting boxing?

    G-Force

    [/ QUOTE ]Yes, those numbers are a bit old, try this Hero Builder, it's very accurate and update every patch, with ED diminishing returns and a lot of nice other features!
  18. Tank reporting for duties, gimme a good empath *hint Manf hint* and i can take plenty of Riktis on(till i reach the aggro[LOL]cap, that is..)!

    Freaks ARE easy, no matter where you face them, but they've been good xp in the second respec!
  19. Deffo up for it with my tank, that silly hat shud fit well on an 8 feet tall giant ape.......
  20. As from the title, I would love to do this TF again as my tank because it was uber fun the first time as my controller, I'd say that this will take (iirc) 5-6 hours, mainly due to the problems traveling the SS, I hope the jetpacks will help a bit tho.

    Every info we may need is here.
    Level range is 44-50, 22missions of wich 9 are visit location, so make those only 13 indoor mishes, with 5 AVs in them, one of wich gives a nice badge(Baphomet).

    Sign up here or send J. Brute an in-game mail with your subscription!
  21. 44 and counting if i can be of any use with my Tanker
  22. 43.55 and rising shud be there in time and if I am i wanto phil there, to poke him asking TPs around xD
    W00t!!!

    Tank question(s)

    Boxing is better, less end, shorter animation, shorter recharge but not even worth 1 slot as it's only a way to Tough.
    Dropping Resist Physical Damage i'm afraid to say you won't reach the S/L cap because it's needed for it, you'll have something around 78.5% res to S/L with 3 slotted Temp Invuln, Tough and Unyielding having +2 SOs in them.

    I advise you try and fit in any power in the Invulnerability set, because every one of them adds to your survavibility, wich is what tanks are made for.

    [/ QUOTE ]Yep, I know, I was with my troller tho..
    i was with the tanker when we faced Mayhem and there were 3 tanks and a scrapper overtaunting each other!LoL!
  25. Make the tank 44, otherwise i can't join, but I'm currently 43.3, so I hope to make those 7 bars tomorrow afternoon, anyone willing to help?
    If I can't make it in time count me off to leave the spot to someone else that wants to do it.
