Boost ? Buff ? Interchangable surely?

It effects base damage iirc (i.e. adds to base damage of attack before other bonuses).

Not relevant to the essence of my point tho.

[/ QUOTE ]Incorrect.
Base damage boost=Changes base damage, and thus for example 10% base damage boost would give 10% boost to end damage.
Damage buff=Multiplier for base damage. Enhancements, and all damage buff powers are in this category. If you have no damage buffs, a 10% damage buff will be 10% boost to end damage, but if you have 100% damage buff, a 10% buff will only be 5% boost to end damage, and so on.

Assault is definitely a damage buff instead of base damage boost, last time I checked.

I know it's not said in the info, but try the same mob with and without ss on, and then tell me . I have done it several times, and have noticed myself a really noticeable difference

[/ QUOTE ]Notice all you want, it has no +def.

Get stamina from fitness pool by at L20, buy EndRdx SO's at L22, pick up conserve power and energy drain as soon as they're available.

[ QUOTE ]
I was thinking the same thing, but the only other thing I'd put that particular slot onto is Swift :/

[/ QUOTE ]

You have no RechRdx or EndRdx in your attacks, those would be useful. Oh, and drop the knockback enhancers and put something sensible in those slots.

Also, You really should get bone smasher and total focus there somewhere.

[ QUOTE ]
im just a noob , but im pretty sure 3 acc in sniper isnt neccesarry

[/ QUOTE ]If you do sensible PvE (even levels, +1's, +2's), one acc is fine in most powers (apart for AoE controls, and powers that really need to hit, like ToHit heals). If you fight higher foes, or PvP, 2 is good. 3 is usually overkill, only useful when against high-def targets in PvP.

It gives long boost to fire attacks, and shorter boost to non-fire attacks, so it's worth taking even without fire melee, even if not quite as powerful.

Ice is very nice to corruptors due to ice storm+blizzard+scourge, and will propably outdamage sonic at later levels, especially with /cold.

I have played a 6 man MM team, all with assault and tactics. They simply ripped through enemies without a pause. Accuracy was capped and Boost to base damage of +90%.


[/ QUOTE ]Assault is damage buff, not base damage boost.

[ QUOTE ]
Fitness? for an MM? Rubbish.

[/ QUOTE ]Not for the proper MM's

Archery is very low end usage, I just about never never run out of end with my arch/dev.

Just a shame that some people still have their artificially boosted post counts gained from the thread...

[ QUOTE ]
and i dont think you need any invisibility power to ghost.. am i wrong?

[/ QUOTE ]You're right with that, a capable person can ghost quite well without any kind of stealth. With PFF, invis is not often needed.

[ QUOTE ]
Final question is, do you think a illusion/ff troller should still get SI/GI? and why?

[/ QUOTE ]I would take GI, invisible team can have it's uses

Slotting up Health and Stamina is generally a good choice, even with QR.


[/ QUOTE ]Stamina, sure, but health? Only if you REALLY have too many slots, and have already 3-slotted fast healing.

[/ QUOTE ]

It all stacks and iirc health adds 20%-ish to regen rate so why not?

[/ QUOTE ]Because the bonus from health is pretty small. It's like slotting CJ for defence, it will help, but not all that much.

FF/NRG used to be great for solo, then came Ed... :/

I still wouldn't class it as worst, that would be sonic, since it has more ally-targeted moves.

[ QUOTE ]

Um which scrapper epic hold actually has -recharge?

[/ QUOTE ]Scrappers only have onje epic hold, which doesnt have any additional effect.

Can someone explain Taunt Auras please?

[/ QUOTE ]When you have your aura on, foes near you will be taunted at you.[ QUOTE ]
Oh, and is it worth picking up the fighting pool?

[/ QUOTE ]Depends, personally I'd go for aid self over tough.

[ QUOTE ]

Well it depends on what people you play with usually, resistance based sets (especially tankers with their 90% resistance cap) get more out of sonic, defense based sets might like force fields.

[/ QUOTE ]Vice versa in most cases, actually. Defence and resistance together are superior to either defence or resistance. Combine both of them with some healing or regen adn you'll have really high survivability.

[ QUOTE ]
well there goes that plan. any1 know of a way to beat regens with a spines/sr?

[/ QUOTE ]-rech will still be best, web grenade combined with spines powers should be able to give quite nice -rech even when you cant slot it.

Slotting slow wont do much, it only increases the actual slow (movement reduction), not the recharge debuff.

That's usually when you have around 3/4 attacks.

Positron is clearly shown to be an energy blaster, not the Rad defender/blaster hybrid he appears to be in game(Surely not a case of Cryptic screwing with the background of a toon just to make him harder in game ).

[/ QUOTE ]
I'm pretty sure the nature of his powers changed somewhat when he was trapped inside his armor
[ QUOTE ]
Also, why in the Recluse SF does Miss Liberty state that her belt is responsible for her powers when the novel clearly shows that's not the case and I had no idea until I read the book that she's meant to be Statesmans daughter

[/ QUOTE ] IIRC the belt boosts her powers, but doesn't cause them.

[ QUOTE ]

So it would affect the to hit buff portion of buildup/accuracy, but not the damage portion? Or is there a difference between 'To-Hit buffs' and 'Accuracy'?

[/ QUOTE ]It affects the +ToHit of aim and BU, yes. However, accuracy and tohit are two different things, abd uit doesn't boost ACC (Then again, there are no accuracy buff/debuff powers in the game anyways)

Yup, if you're over certain height, you'll spawn eagles. Twenty four of them for a solo player however.... Shouldn't be that much, if you ran straight towards the bank.

I'd say sonic is better for teams, while FF is better for solo.
