healing is based on corr max HP kin and dark corrs heal like 38.xx% of ther HP

[/ QUOTE ]No, it's not. Healing modifier table merely happen to be in same scale with the HP table. HP altering does not change the amount healed.

Yes

Why the [censored] is he able to solo a lvl 54 elite boss even while he is getting shot at by my pets?

[/ QUOTE ]...Why wouldn't he be?

[ QUOTE ]

i mean when dimension shift end the mob are still here.
it's safer to kill mob that are held or stunned that healing and then fighting full health group.


[/ QUOTE ]Don't slot it for ACC. It'll hit some of the group, and you can kill those it doesn't hit, and then the rest when they unphase. And it really is more of a panic button than aggro control power.

[ QUOTE ]

Looks like you're doing good so far, but as you hit higher levels you'll need to concentrate on the buffing side of powers as much as the healing side.

[/ QUOTE ]I'd say even more than on healing, in a well working team healing often isn't necessary, at least often, but the buffs still are awesome.

First of all, get rid of the 4th heal SO in your heals, it does VERY little, and you have things like fort and RA to slot.

As for attacks, if you're teaming a lot I'd consider the AoE's, at least psychic scream. If you want to solo, or deal single target damage, TK blast, will dom and subdue are your friends.

They don't have health but all MM pets have a base regen.

[/ QUOTE ]They don't, however, have any special +regen, it's just the general base regen that all players and critters have.

[/ QUOTE ]

Which is exactly what I said

[/ QUOTE ]Your post made it sound like MM pets had a regen different from that of all entities (At least to me), so just wanted to clarify.

Both knights and zombies get siphon life with the 2nd upgrade. Lich gets drain life...either initially or with 1st upgrade. The heal enhancements affect only these drain powers, the henches have no extra regeneration powers.

ST immobs aren't that useful in PvE, but they are very useful for PvP, especially for plant control which needs -fly for it's hold to be useful.

Weird.. wheres the link to there, from here ?


[/ QUOTE ]Through the NoFuture forums. City of Data is still somewhat WiP and thus not integrated to the main site yet.

PBAoE attacks are classed as Melee attacks as far as Defense calculations are concerned.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, this is wrong. Test it with someone slotting a aura 3 acc, not using FA, BU or tactics.

I've tested it myself, with a lvl 50 spines/DA slotting 3 acc in DS and quills against a lvl 50 regen stalker with Hide one-slotted for defense. 17 hits and 328 misses.

[/ QUOTE ]

PBAoE attacks, especially damage auras classify as melee attacks. Hide ALSO gives melee def. Duh.

[/ QUOTE ] Quills=AoE

[/ QUOTE ]
Type Toggle, Melee

Contradiction.

[/ QUOTE ]That's just a description. However:
"Attack Types: AOE Attack, Lethal Attack"

That is the line that determines what defence is used against it.

[ QUOTE ]
sure that wouldn't apply to poison as well? seems to work in the same way

[/ QUOTE ]Nah, poison was originally intended to be LBAoE, but was changed to normal AoE before I5 went live.

Does this apply through misson doors as well?

[/ QUOTE ]Aye, went through the cave door in christmas mish just fine.

[ QUOTE ]

AFAIK this is still the case. If you drop a Mentor partnering or go out of range (door/portal etc.) your higher level pets will **instantly** despawn, just as your pets normally do when your Mastermind switches maps.

[/ QUOTE ]It's not instant, or at least wasn't few days ago. I could stay out of LK range for 15 secs or so without henches dying.

Disruption and glue stack since they're LBAoE's, and thus are actually cast by summoned entities, not the player. The rest don't stack.

[ QUOTE ]
May be instant if you actually drop the partnership...

[/ QUOTE ]

So if I stop sidekicking him, then his pets vanish? That sounds... odd? Unless that was how they stopped a low level getting high level pets in a mission.

[/ QUOTE ]They dont "vanish", they just die after ..15 secs maybe?

And it's much easier than coding pets with dynamic levels.

[ QUOTE ]
I honestly don't know if Intangible is one of those mezzes that drops toggles, or one which doesn't.

[/ QUOTE ]It doesn't, the player/critter it's moved on can act freely, apart for not being able to affect others, just like in phase shift. (Of course, to move around they'll have to overcome the low-mag immob associated with intangibility powers.)

[ QUOTE ]
If I remember correctly, (big IF since I dropped DS a long time ago on my troller), the enhances only affect the intangibility duration and not magnitude (unlike Domination).

[/ QUOTE ]Intangibility enhancements do NOT affect duration, only mag.

[ QUOTE ]
Likewise, someone who is large isn't necessarily a lazy bum who'll eat everything and anything put in front of them

[/ QUOTE ]Which also works the other way around, of which I am pleased

Take howl if you do team PvE, if you solo PvE or do PvP, I'd leave it.

Somehow tanking has changed thru out the times. Many tankers I meet nowadays don't even carry TAUNT? can U believe that? How the hell are U going to keep aggro and pull'm away from the squishies (exceuse the term here) w/o taunt??

[/ QUOTE ]Ever heard of Chilling Embrace?

[/ QUOTE ]

i dont think he was just talking about ice tankers, ive seen even granite tanks without taunt!

[/ QUOTE ]

They can get mud pots. All tank primaries get some form of taunt aura.

[/ QUOTE ]Aye. However, I wouldn't recommend the tauntless path for stone, because of the heavy movement restrictions.

[/ QUOTE ]To me it seemed he was talking about tankers in general, and just being plain ignorant. Which is enforced by the 'tanks can't kill anything' comment...
