Awwww.....Get a life Maelwys, you must be like many on these forums, less play, more talk and un play like numbers


[/ QUOTE ]In case you didn't know, the game is, in it's core, just a lot of numbers

[/ QUOTE ]

You didn't take the "like many on these forums" bit personally there, did you MaX?

[/ QUOTE ]Just geting a bit tired of the "Stop posting and go play the game" non-argument

I will try it. I may or may not play for any length of time.

[ QUOTE ]

Really? im nearly sure theres a protection somewhere i remember seeing it in a power description in the new combat stats giving a resistance to placate. I'll get back to you.


[/ QUOTE ]Resistance != Protection

[ QUOTE ]
Stone without Granite plays a lot like Ice. You've got defense vs. physical and energy based damage and resistance vs. the elements. Instead of a slowing aura you've got an immobilising one, but it offers less mitigation through recharge penalties and damage debuffs. You can't get as much elemental resistance, but you get a little physical resistance in-set. You don't get an endurance drainer, but you are resistant to endurance drain, and have an accelerated rate of health recovery. One big plus you have over the Ice tanker is that you get specific psionic defense. Advantages the Ice tanker has over you would include easier mobility and the option of turning invulnerable to recover health and endurance.

[/ QUOTE ]And your defense numbers are going to a lot lower, since not only are your shields slightly less effective, you're missing EA which is a BIG boost.

And the lack of mobility is very nasty.

I'd love to, but
1) I've no free slots on defiant
2) I've a mock exam coming on friday and should, if not study for it, at least be awake >_>

[/ QUOTE ]EDIT: Was looking at the wrong week, and weekday

But still, the fact remains I've no free slots

60+70+90 (bonus, self, IO)
450 / (1+2.20) = 140sec recharge with a 120sec duration. 20sec is nearly enough for me.

[/ QUOTE ]Will be more like 25 secs since hasten won't affect it's own recharge once it's down.

[ QUOTE ]
You would be better off aiming for the HP cap for blaster which is 126% (1606) HP AFAIK

[/ QUOTE ]Which you're pretty much at with just accolades.

[ QUOTE ]


hmm, my bad then, it says knockBACK in MIDs, at least in my version.

[/ QUOTE ]Mag .67 knockback, ie. knockdown.

I'll obviously be there. Exemping one char or another, probably MaXina Infernia because you guys need more AoE damage

!= means "Does Not Equal"

[/ QUOTE ]

Since when?

I actually had to read it and give it the benefit of the doubt. I am sooooooo used to having what I say get taken the worst way possible

[/ QUOTE ]

OK it does when MaX types it at least. I dont recall seeing others use it so maybe its just one of his quirks

[/ QUOTE ]Search fir it in wikipedia and you'll see it's used by other people as well

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
!= means "Does Not Equal"

[/ QUOTE ]

Since when?

[/ QUOTE ]Since always?

It's quite commonly used, easier to type than =/=, or ≠ which isn't even supported on these forums for that matter.

[ QUOTE ]

Normally im one to happily point out the errors of someones ways if they appear new and still learning.. but this was a 33 month veteran.. so i didnt pursue the subject. Even if I have seniority over him, its only by 6 months and at that stage to start an argument is only to see who has the longest reproductive organ.

[/ QUOTE ]Veterancy != Understanding of game mechanics

Get stamina (from the fitness pool) as soon as possible. You'll need it as a spine/SR.

[ QUOTE ]
why does it matter?

[/ QUOTE ]Because the general discussion board would be a total mess if all server-spesific threads were posted here instead?

[ QUOTE ]
I currently have a psi proc in chilling embrace so when the patch goes live will it just stop working? Or will you just no longer be able to ADD a proc to taunt auras?


[/ QUOTE ]You won't be able to add them. so you'll be fine as long as you don't respec.

It's best to max both, but you should probably focus on the resistance over defense.

Keeping the same powers, I'd go for something like:

Improved it a bit without lowering enhancement persentages anywhere more than one or two % (except in the case of endmod in EA, which dropped 10% to make way for more def, which is more important IMO), and without altering slot numbers. Not much else I can do without reducing some stats, changing slot numbers, or using purple sets.

Mechanically, the double (buffed) damage is unlike any other buff in the game

[/ QUOTE ]Except for scourge, and scrapper/stalker crits.

Guess will have to try that AidSelf idea and carry break frees

Regards using Stun Ive been told that combined with Energy Punch and other energy melee it is more effective.

That said; if you are using two powers to get Punch and Stun, you may as well go for Taunt and Fear

Thanks

[/ QUOTE ]Wait, you don't have energy punch? It's your highest DPA (Damage Per Animation time) attack.

[ QUOTE ]

Can someone help clarify if acrobatics or tough/weave can help stop you getting stunned/disorientated ?

[/ QUOTE ]Nope, there's no pool power that will.

It's -10% for both ToHit and Def. And both do show in Mids' in the effects tab.

Negative Power Boost suffers similar problem as -DEF: resist based sets are hit more often, therefore mezzes land more often. Reduced mezz protection = toggles gone = game over.

[/ QUOTE ]Mez protection powers can't be buffed or debuffed.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes they can, otherwise "Weaken" or "Power Boost" wouldn't make it less or more difficult to mez a toon. Any Buff/Debuff that affects the Mag or Duration of a mez effect also affects mez protection strength.

[/ QUOTE ]But mez protection is technically negative mez effect. If Weaken worked that way, it'd apply all mez effects if used on a target with no mez protection. Which I'm pretty sure it doesn't.
