Jiaozy

I think of Rage as a situational power, maybe the fight is goin wrong, the healer died, kick in Rage, finish everyone off and recover, that sort of things.
Indeed I'll slot a taunt in Invincibility, after 6 slottiing Fire Blast I'll put the slot in Invincibility, then at lvl 50 i'll put the remaining slot from the lvl in Rage, to make it 2 recharge.

Uhmmm is it only me that thinks that goin from 67% resist to S/L (Temp Invuln, RPD, Unyielding 3 slotted with +2 SOs) to 90% can make the difference?

[/ QUOTE ]
You can only get to 85% I think with tough ( assuming 3 slotted powers ). However that makes a huge difference when fighting S/L enemies.

[ QUOTE ]
Tried this out and stil can tank bloody well(when it's not a portal behind Infernal...)and i think it helps a lot, almost any enemy makes Smash or Lethal dmg, so I advise that you take Tough, with 3 slots it will give you almost 24% more resist to S/L dmg, weave with ED is not worth pickin tho.

[/ QUOTE ]

I believe Weave is well worth picking as it provides about the same damage mitigation as Resist Elements and Resist Energies combined ( according to DrRocks CoH Damage Comparision program ).

[/ QUOTE ]In Sherk Silver's Hero Builder resistances to Smash/Lethal, with 3 slots filled with +2 SOs are as follow:
Temp Invuln: 47,07%
Unyielding: 7,85%
Res Physical Dmg: 11,77%
___________________________
66,69% Res to S/L

Tough is 23,54%
___________________________
90,23%

Not much more than 90% but at least at the cap..

Can you tell me how to make Dr Rock thingy work pls?!

@ Shannon:
Sad but true, often in pug it happens to be the one that has to recover the aggro from the random troller that tried to stun the whole mob while u were fighting another one, the random flying healer that aggroes the catwalk behind him without noticing and such..
But that's what make a tanker really good, dealing with such problems, nonetheless, a tanker really shines when he's the one to take the aggro and manage it from the beginning of the fight.

What is wrong with the tanks of CoH?

Most of a tank's life is spent complaining - about i5, about sappers, about psi, about ED, about i6, can you not just play the game? Its fun if you just give it a go, away from the complainfest in this thread.

I am a tank, and i admit i haven't played as my main much in i6, but it really doesnt make difference if you are GOOD at what you do, and if you die, who cares? If you do it is quite a decent source of comedy which you can exploit with the rest of your team, which could clear the angry obsessing tank stereotype we have on CoH. But then again, you could just complain some more.

Also, good point khaine, but the other rock tank powers are very good if you slot them, and i much prefer not being in GA (No offence bedrocks of the world 0.o).

[/ QUOTE ]Very true..
All those whiners that say that tankers are dead.....
WAKE UP PLEASE!
You just have an AT that needs to be played WELL to work, not just the unkillable herding machine of before!
I have an invuln tanker, currently lvl 42 and I'm having big fun with him because every situation has not to be takne lightly because it's a possible faceplant!

Maybe you all need to re-learn to play your toon because everyone that says"I reired my tank because of I5" makes me laugh..

Go and have some good time and stop complaining please!

If I don't make it in time with the level I'll gladly leave my spot for another one who needs the badge, cos i alredy got it as Jiaozy, so if more people turns up for this TF don't be shy and kick me off if i'm not with Brute

I already said yes so I can't miss this
Plus you'll need a tank to save Lord Phil squishy A55, lol!

If Hobo or Stage don't turn up I will gladly lead the PA drop team DK!

That is if you want to be a tanker, the scranker route is another way around..

The build of my tank has changed slightly during the levelin, I made him more tanker than scranker, this is what he looks like now:


01) --> Temp Invulnerability==> DmgRes(1) DmgRes(3) DmgRes(3) EndRdx(11)
01) --> Jab==> Acc(1)
02) --> Resist Physical Damage==> DmgRes(2) DmgRes(5) DmgRes(5)
04) --> Dull Pain==> Heal(4) Heal(7) Heal(7) Rechg(13) Rechg(13) Rechg(15)
06) --> Swift==> Run(6)
08) --> Unyielding==> DmgRes(8) DmgRes(9) DmgRes(9) EndRdx(11)
10) --> Combat Jumping==> DefBuf(10)
12) --> Taunt==> Taunt(12) Rechg(15) Rechg(40)
14) --> Super Jump==> Jump(14)
16) --> Health==> Heal(16) Heal(17) Heal(17)
18) --> Invincibility==> DefBuf(18) DefBuf(19) DefBuf(19) TH_Buf(23) EndRdx(23)
20) --> Stamina==> EndMod(20) EndMod(21) EndMod(21)
22) --> Knockout Blow==> Acc(22) Acc(25) Dmg(31) Dmg(33) Dmg(33) Rechg(34)
24) --> Air Superiority==> Acc(24) Acc(25) Dmg(33) Dmg(34) Dmg(34) Rechg(37)
26) --> Tough Hide==> DefBuf(26) DefBuf(27) DefBuf(27)
28) --> Resist Elements==> DmgRes(28) DmgRes(29) DmgRes(29)
30) --> Resist Energies==> DmgRes(30) DmgRes(31) DmgRes(31)
32) --> Boxing==> Acc(32)
35) --> Tough==> DmgRes(35) DmgRes(36) DmgRes(36) EndRdx(36) EndRdx(37) EndRdx(37)
38) --> Foot Stomp==> Acc(38) Acc(39) Dmg(39) Dmg(39) Dmg(40) Rechg(40)
41) --> Char==> Acc(41) Acc(42) Hold(42) Hold(42)

Planning to go for Fire Blast and Fireball as in the original post, with either Rage or Fly at lvl 49, with only 2 slots, after 6 slotting Fireball.
Every people that teamed with me thusfar said my build is workin and after tankin +3/+4 Pretorian AVs with not much difficulty I think I can say the same.

Make that 1.9 lvls!!

*puff pant*

Workin hard, hope to get 43 today(posting before work xD )and hopefully get to 44 on sunday or monday noon..

@Jiaozy signing up for this, I need a tiny bit for this badge, so i guess it won't take long for me.
Jiaozy, lvl 50 Ill/Kin/Psi troller.
If more people than can fit in a team will show up i'll gladly leave my spot after my 20-30 illusionists!

2.3 lvls away, hope to make it in time!!

[ QUOTE ]
J. Brute, tanker - hoping Jiaozy can work for the level

[/ QUOTE ]Workin hard, 4.5 lvls to go, hoping to make it only 4 or a bit less tonight!
Otherwise i think i'll join in with Jiaozy to see how it is to fly around the SS

Ask Doulos too, I'll tell him of the mish cos he needs the badge for the Atlas Medallion because he's staminaless and he will need that accolade

W00t so I wont have to offer a taxi service like every other ss tf ever

[/ QUOTE ]*whistles*
Quite a fast TF, fastest of the SS i think!
The insane one has been the Dr. Quarterfield, it took us like 14 hours to finish(we started at 9 pm, someone *couch*Phil*cough* played till 6 am but then they've gone to bed and we finished that the next day....
That's hardcore playin, i've felt asleep on my chair(literally)at 3pm.....
If I'll reach the level with my tanker I'll join in!

Anyway, everyone come to the meeting point, so if there's enough people we can do 2 teams

Signing up any of my toons for this, depending on needs and time, send a tell to any of the one in my sig(most likely my tank, tho, wich i still enjoy playin ).

[/ QUOTE ]Err.....
You never counted me on any of your posts...Ok, i understand when I'm not welcome...

If it's a power based script, then it will fir it up even if he's just gone above 50% and we'll put him down again, I tried a little while ago with marauder's unstoppable..
With the current recharge for unstoppable he cudn't fire it that often, we had the time to come back from the hossie after a wipe, bring him down after he regenned up and he fires Unstoppable once again..
So I guess that with Hami it can work the same way..

Signing up any of my toons for this, depending on needs and time, send a tell to any of the one in my sig(most likely my tank, tho, wich i still enjoy playin ).

Here's some of the Screenie!!
Entrance!

Rock Wall Room

Only a little of the Crystal DEs near the Titan, there were like 1000 or more...

[SPOILER] Crystal Titan in the background

[SPOILER] Titan getting some beatings

[SPOILER] Titan doin his rainbow footstomp

As you may notice from the timing in the screenshots(the name of the image is the date + time at wich it was taken)from when we entered (21.04) and when the titan fell (about little time after i got the last screen(22.30) we made a damn fast job

Had his level 50 deleted? By whom and and under what circumstance would such an event have occured? Sounds rather unfortunate indeed.

[/ QUOTE ]
was deleted by my GF after a big fight

Did that create an evil bigger fight? If so what did you do with the body?

[/ QUOTE ]ZOMG!!!!111!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLLLLLL!!!!

Soz to hear that pryo...

but I'm worried my toggles are going to cause problems.

[/ QUOTE ]They won't cause any problem because you won't need to turn them on...

[ QUOTE ]
P.S. I want a rematch in the titan room :P (where i dont have to clean up after you )

[/ QUOTE ]Whenever you want!!
Good fun, this has been one of the most amazing moment in my CoH history, never saw inside of eden spire before and it's really worth it, amazing location and the Crystal Titan is awesome!!(I've been off the fight for about half his health takin screenshots )

[ QUOTE ]
Now the DPS is lowered thanks to the same ED that affected the holding. With such low damage output I really doubt we can take him out in 1 min.

[/ QUOTE ]Not true, with 1 acc, 3 dmg, 1 end red and 1 recharge u can achieve the same exact dps u had with 1 acc 5 dmg(most common slotting)at that time for ppl without Focused accuracy or Targeting Drone.
Test

If this
[ QUOTE ]
It hasn't been definitively proven if this has been changed, but Hamidon used to have higher mez resistance the more people were standing in the goo. This may or may not be true now. But even if this has been changed, having more people around the controllers does make their lives difficult in other ways, in particular by adding more lag around them.

[/ QUOTE ]is still true, can we try and decrease the number of people in the citoplasm instead than increasing it?
Maybe 2 full trollers teams with as many */Rad-Kin we can find to help the recharge...
Best case imo wud be 2 full teams of grav/rad or grav/kin for recharge buffs(AM or SB)and to try and have asm many as we can out, leaving the Hami tank as far as taunt can reach and the healers as far away as possibile to hope they can be out of the citoplasm to not increase his mez res..
This is IF it hasn't changed...

6. If no tank available, bring Doulos.

I spammed with my tank, but Doulos took my place I think!
Big grats Elec, see you around!
