Quote:the sleep chance for heal is not half bad when you have it slotted in aoe such as mass hypnosis or any of the control sets mass sleeps (except for elec control)Originally Posted by _Pine_
It appears that the devs were so afraid that this IO (as well as the sleep Chance for Heal) would be overpowered so they made it not worth anything. -
pretty sure its the total of the 3, the avg base dmg per seeker is around 65-70 unenhanced x3 would put it around 210ish unenhanced

Quote:/this, i always random roll reward merits but rarely alignment meritsOriginally Posted by DarkSideLeague
I turned off xp on my Fire/Ice tanker and my EM/Regen stalker - my tanker grinds tickets solo, then spends them on Bronze Rolls - My i21 Builds called for lots of Doctored Wounds/Efficacy/etc. My Stalker grinds tips for A Merits - when my Beam/Nrg blaster hit 33 I turned off xp so I can grind the 10 tips and then run SSAs for easy rolling potential - all my 50s use A-Merits for things like Performance Shifter Procs and LoTGs (I don't like a random roll that has no possibility of giving me something usable).
I don't necessarily sell them - the Performance Shifters are for my TW/WP, and so are the LoTGs I make. Usually I make a huge amount from random rolls in the end, but I just can't bring myself to "Waste" them (rolling with no possibility of benefiting from it). -
Quote:the concept of the set is sound but i think your numbers need to be balanced some, -50% tohit is massive, the only thing that i know which can do that much at once is powerboosted blackstar (dark blast nuke), powerboosted darkest night may also be able to reach that for short durationOriginally Posted by Twigman
Agreed ... not all that complicated
I'm surprised move of the vet players don't want this, most of them don't take the tier 9 ability anyway, This would be similar to having SS rage on a armor set. -
i usually use alignment merits to get LOTGs since a large amount of my builds call for 5 LOTGs and i refuse to pay market price for them
if its on a lower toon i will sometimes do the random roll but about half of the time ive gotten nothing but junk from that -
Quote:i think that is why the find contact button was added in to make it easy to find contacts the player has never talked to yetOriginally Posted by Winterminal
I agree with most of what was said in the original post. That said, "variety is the spice of life." To new players, who want to be "super" immediately, the quick xp with the good rewards is very enticing. However, if a new player levels up to 10+ with the DFB (and many are going higher) and then gets bored, they are really left on their own to figure out where to go, and that's the one danger of which we need to be aware. With contacts, when you out-level one, they introduce you to another one, in a zone appropriate for your level range. For a totally new player, the game is huge and overwhelming enough without having to find what they are supposed to do next.
As a disclaimer, I do not think this is a current issue, merely a possibility that should be considered.
as per the OP, personally the DFB is fine but i hate playing it past lvl 12 since i wont get all my powers -
Quote:the league window will not change regardless of which team window option you have setOriginally Posted by Samuel_Tow
The horrible, garish colours, the bloated, ugly menus, the over-large goofy buttons, the unnecessary gradients... Oh, where do I start?
Is that really what it would look like if I lost all sense of reason and swapped to the new teaming interface? -

Character copying tool is also not working btw.

i went with dark/energy and im actually enjoying it, majority of the blasters i have played never felt like ranged dmg toons they felt like half ranged dmg half melee dmg and i do not think they should have any melee powers
i went with energy because a majority of the set is click buffs, powerboost basically doubles the -tohit on all your powers and improves the duration of your mez powers and your heal (slotted the nuke, blackstar, could potentially have -71% tohit with powerboost active), boost range will help all of your cone powers, and conserve power helps with recovering from the nuke or if you are running low on end in general
the only melee attacks i even plan to have are total focus and the default power power thrust (one as a heavy hitter for anything that gets too close and one fast charging one to push back stuff that gets too close) -
Quote:basilisk gaze should be fine, just dont use the proc and save a 5 slot on the power for the lockdown proc, the proc in basilisks gaze is fairly negligibleOriginally Posted by SchroedingerCat
really? not basilisks gaze? My character can really use the recovery, recharge and defense for only a few slots investment.

Quote:our area got about 5 inches but still had the downed trees and such, we lost power from about 3:45 till sometime between midnight and 2:40 am (my parents say they woke at midnight to see the power on and i woke at 2:40 am seeing the power on)Originally Posted by Madame Pistacio
More like 12 inches of snow in October and a ton of downed trees and power lines! After an exhausting (and freezing) day one of the hotels got power back. I am in the hotel now. Really bummed about how this weekend went though

Quote:/this, you cannot stop someone from placing personal items in a base, you can stop them from using the normal base editor but not from adding personal itemsOriginally Posted by Bloodspeaker
I'd have to double-check, but that setting does not prevent someone from "Adding a Personal Item" to the base, which is what elvnsword09 is referring to... I think. Things like the comic covers, weapons and trophy cases, and the Arachnos and Longbow Flyers.
Personally, as the main base designer for two bases, if someone adds one without asking, I reciprocate the consideration by deleting it without asking. Harsh, maybe... but I really do have better things to do than remind people repeatedly not to do this without asking, especially when I *have* all the aforementioned items available. If they were wanted, they'd already be there... -
Quote:can always test it in AE, his natural level is 54 but GM scaling code makes it irrelevantOriginally Posted by Silas
Well then that combined with my own experience leads me to believe he would be very soloable. We were able to spawn him with two bombs, not sure if he can be spawned with just one. I doubt it.
-
Quote:he has around 73,000 ish hp, approx the same as the DE monsters in the hiveOriginally Posted by Silas
The tricky part of that is actually getting him to spawn. I don't know how his hp compares to normal AVs, but I'd bet an Ill/Cold could solo him given time. Could probably even solo him quickly with Lore pets.
-
it would be easier to perma drain them with elec/psi, drain psyches -recov paired with the -recov in your attacks will floor just about anything in about 10 seconds (GMs and AVs take slightly longer maybe 30-60 seconds due to their massive end count and -end resist)
-
i like to make other toons to be able to do this, yes i have an ill/cold who can solo AVs easily and whatnot, but i have other toons to fill in niches that the ill/cold cant
i have a mind/fire dom which ive used to solo ITF and could solo LRSF and i have a demon/trap toon that im working on who can solo GMs and AVs (scrappy is a PITA though with all his running) -
Quote:you cant specifically get those mishs, you would have to run through the entire arc till you got the specific mish (i believe the mishs are in the flashbacks)Originally Posted by Wing_Leader
Isn't it also possible to never get either of the two Hydra missions (one from Tina Macintyre, the other from Maria Jenkins) that awards the Multidimensional badge (required for the Portal Jockey Accolade)? You aren't guaranteed to get either of those two missions just because they become a contact, are you? As far as I can tell, neither mission is available in the Flashback list.
-
firstly the set would be ridiculously easy to kill as soon as the tier 9 was popped, 100 hp is nothing, most lvl 50 minions can hit for that much, even with capped resist and regen a AV can hit you for 10x that, 2 shots and you would be dead even with capped resist
secondly if your going for a hulk type of theme just make super strength/wp or super strength/regen and you get the same effect -
when i summoned him his name is Black Whip, i have no idea where your getting coach whip from
-
i agree that hide should prolly be an inherent and placate be made into a target aoe instead of single target
i also agree with most of the replacements for hide in the powerset should it go inherent -

Bumping because I updated the OP and due to the nature of the post.
I know it's against the forum rules to bump a post, but I'm putting all updates in the original message instead of posting them way down here where people might not look. As you monitor this thread, please check the TOP post first for updates!
and its appreciated that your taking all necessary steps to protect user data -
Quote:true you cant outlevel it, but you still cant retry it if you do fail to get the badgeOriginally Posted by DumpleBerry
But, since Efficiency Expert is of level 45-50 range, you can't ever accidentally out-level it. Also, while it's pretty wonky, it's possible to fail some of Pither's tasks and still get the badge.
-
i dont think so since corrs dont get scourge
-
yes through ouroboros flashbacks
there are exceptions though (efficiency expert is one) -
Quote:for tank i would aim for 10+ kb protectOriginally Posted by Sir Hextor
Piggy backing off of this, what levels of -KB matter. I've seen some people say that -4 is ok for most things, -8 is useless unless you're on your way to -12. What about -11? Just curious sine that's the goal on my DA tank.
4-8 is usually the best for squishies since they shouldnt be the main targets of the enemies
