Looks to me like a buffed-up Photon Seeker/Seeker Drone

It was planned that you'd get a damage buff when attacking from stealth, but it didn't go live. It's just a text error now.

Beeing able to play them = Open beta

[/ QUOTE ]Fixed that for you

[ QUOTE ]


And for the part of waiting how things turn out...... history of CoX shows that once something went live it tends to stay that way or needs years to get adressed.

[/ QUOTE ]Being able to play them != Them having gone live

You know what's boring? This thread.

Ah well, at least it's not quite as bad as US side, we don't have people saying how all kheld powers were new and original...

[ QUOTE ]
In attacks, 2 ACC IO's and 2 DMG IO's is sensible slotting, the other two you can use on Recharge IO's, End Reduction IO's, Range IO's or just procs.

Using 3 IO's is a waste.

[/ QUOTE ]For accuracy yes, less so for damage.

I prefer 1 acc 3 dam for attacks when using SO's or CIO's, with additional end and rech as necessary. It's good enough as long as you're not fighting mobs several levels above you.

[ QUOTE ]

Because you were around issue 5, then you'll be aware of the Taunt caps and Enhancement Diversification (ED).

[/ QUOTE ]ED was I6, actually, and AoE caps were....damn, not sure, somewhere between I6 and I7?

[ QUOTE ]

One question, though - how will a Fortunata be differentiated from a regular psi Dominator?

[/ QUOTE ]They won't suck?

[ QUOTE ]
2 dmg 3 acc 1 rech

[/ QUOTE ]3 acc in a PvE build? Do you regularily fight +6's or something?

1 acc is enough for most powers for sensible PvE, 2 definitely is. 3 is simply overkill.

[ QUOTE ]
Any chance I can download this video from somewhere? Streaming it means I watch 5 seconds every 2 minutes.

[/ QUOTE ]That's why streams have a pause button, just wait 'till it's fully loaded and then watch it.

[ QUOTE ]
with the statement by Major Tasker "If your of natural talent"
does this mean the VEAT's will be able to pick any origin rather than stick to one origin?

[/ QUOTE ]Nope, they're all natural.

[ QUOTE ]
I noticed one of those crab spiders was wearing a (recoloured) mu guardian helmet.

[/ QUOTE ]There was a wolf spider wearing a lipstick helmet as well.

[ QUOTE ]
my only question is:


why lvl 24 till we get to decide?

[/ QUOTE ]Why not?

If you have stone skin and granite, you're already resistance capped against smashing and lethal, so the only useful power in fighting would be weave.

I don't think the problem was CE, but Invincibility and RttC, since they also buff the tanker instead of only debuffing mobs.

[ QUOTE ]
I started Chilling Embrace and found a lowly group of Hellions to play with and to my surprise saw them (very) occasionally get stunned. My own stun protection/resistance did not change when this happened.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why would it?

[/ QUOTE ]Because your "mez protection" value is actually the current sum of the positive and negative mez effects you have. So if you get hit by a stun, your "stun protection" value decreases for the effect's duration.

That's whirling mace, and it can be executed in air like all the other powers sharing the animation. (FSC, Whirling hands etc.)

For fairly good survivability without skipping all the attacks, I'd go for (keeping to just SO's) something like this:

Oh yes...also with Hover, you might not be able to pull off your AoE attack (Crowd Control?). With my Super Srength tanker you need to be on the ground to perform Footstomp (funnily enough! ^__^ ).

[/ QUOTE ]You don't need your feet on the ground to swing a mace

[ QUOTE ]

My Ice/Energy used to be able to hold anything (when he had just the two holds from Ice) much faster than any other combination of Blaster

[/ QUOTE ]Considering how slow BFR is, that's just wrong. An Ice/Elec fire can fire off two holds before BFR has even finished activating, and a third not long after. And that's without even taking BFR, although you could stack it on top of the three others if you want overkill.

Here's a sample levelling build to L40:

There's some changes you could make for personal preference, like change of travel power (would still have Hasten in there somewhere, lovely for trip mines and RoA), Taking the snipe, possibly taking stunning shot and taser for control. If you've any questions, just ask.

[ QUOTE ]
Saturday is looking a little doubtful at the moment, I tried to log on last night and it seems my account has been deactivated/hacked or something because my username and password are being refused =( Talking to the support guys now to try and find out what's happened.

[/ QUOTE ]Could it just be that your client is trying to connect to the US servers for some reason? Check that the shortcut is pointing to cohupdater.eu.exe

[ QUOTE ]

On the other hand, the LRM missle will add some damage to my build, will look really cool, but the bad sides are weapon redraw time

[/ QUOTE ]Doesn't LRM use the assault rifle as well?

[ QUOTE ]
Many moons rised since the original post and I'm wondering if there are any - well - news on this?

[/ QUOTE ]The Vault is currently being reworked due to a potential security issue.

[ QUOTE ]
The damage will probably be sub-snowstorm

[/ QUOTE ]Snowstorm does damage now?
