easy ways to get permadom is to use 5 purple sets and 5 LOTGs, that only takes out 30 slots so you have room to build for otherthings and that will start you off with a hefty 72.5% global rech bonus
i also recommend using the basilisk gaze set in other hold powers as thats another 7.5% or more you can slot in for only 4 slots
as for defense, maneuvers tough, weave, and preferably defense based armor (ice or mace masteries), most of those will get you your defense, and you can throw a steadfast 3% def IO in tough (i have a similar setup on my mind dom but no tough or weave)
later today when im back at my computer with mids i can try to whip up an example build -
Quote:you can also toggle it with /screenshotui 1Originally Posted by StarGeek
Press the Prt Scr button. It will save a jpg of the current screen (without the game interface) to a directory in your CoH directory.
You can go to Menu->Options->Keymapping tab and scroll all the way down to other to select a key under "toggle screenshot ui" to toggle whether the screenshot includes the UI or not.
to toggle off repolace the 1 with a 0 -
isnt this the 3rd thread about this just this week?
as others have said, HELL NO to server merges -
Quote:the new mids will still allow old builds to be used, in place of the inherent fitness it will have a thing that says LEGACY fitness, which means you still have the fitness poolOriginally Posted by Superrpgman
Wouldn't a lot of builds, outdated or otherwise not use fitness?
I'm thinking like in terms of the date the build was last updated.
in order to switch to inherent fitness you just simply deselect all of your fitness powers so you are not using the fitness pool anymore and they will be added into your build automatically as inherents -

Just hope that the class wasn't geography...
US timezones have been second nature for a while since I've followed US sport from about 1980. When following a crappy radio signal to get weak, weather-dependent reception it was good to know when I should be hoping to get the signal.
East coast (New York) is 5 hrs behind UK local time and west coast (california) is 8 - save for a slight discrepency around the change to/from summertime/daylight-savings . -
Quote:i think just giving lusca extra merits is enough to suffice, you get 2 merits for a GM, for lusca you have to kill at minimum 7 GMs worth and to make up for it not being too hard just make it an even number like 8-10 meritsOriginally Posted by Madadh
Totally agree. I wish there were more incentive for all the GMs, but Lusca especially since she's extra hard. Or at least extra time consuming. Not sure if more merits, or a special tip goodie, or what that extra incentive should be, but I really think it would be nice if something could be done to make GM hunting more enticing. The risk/reward seems a bit out of whack here, and not to the 'too much reward' side.

Quote:really? didnt think it would work like that, would be much easier if the advanced search just let us choose up to 3 like we can on the architect options screen or when creating an arcOriginally Posted by BackFire
Actually, yes, you can. You click on the "match keywords" radial to expand the options iirc.
most of the search is not bad, i personally like the 1 random button (although it would be better if it would also allow variants such as 5 random or 10 random, since that 1 random may or may not be what you want lol) -
Quote:/thisOriginally Posted by _Klaw_
Welcome to the forums. DON'T use this build it's way too old. There are no restrictions to travel powers or origin as far as choosing powers. Origin affects which type of Single Origin or Dual Origin enhancements you will need to get later in the game.
There is a big change coming to the game in 1 or 2 weeks which will allow you to choose whichever travel power you like at lvl 4 so just go with whichever scrapper sets you like.
definitely need to update mids lol, it looks like your using 1.21, the current version is 1.94 -
Quote:i prolly overestimated a little lol, still working on memorizing time zones and all that lolOriginally Posted by Judgement_Dave
Did the Atlantic suddenly get smaller?
when i made that post i was getting bored to death and really tired in one of my classes so i prolly wasnt thinking straight either lol -
right now, no we cannot search by those descriptive tags such as "canon" "horror" "non-canon", ect
honestly never made sense to me why we couldnt as that is a heck of a lot better than the current search which is actually very vague
easy thing would be if you dont set any, it cant be searched that way which would make story arcs much easier to find actually since most story poeple set those -
not a bad idea, forcing poeple to search would definitly alleviate the 4 star dead zone and from 5 star farms from being the first thing they see
however i feel the devs did the right thing with i21 by disallowing ANY rewards for free players until they either buy the liscense or get a high enough paragon reward tier for it to be permanent -
heh, must have had good defense to avoid getting interrupted long enough to use it lol
and if you didnt have that line in there i would have thought that you were talking about nemesis and their blasted LTs which veng everything after they die (very hard fighting nemesis on toon thats defense based) -
heres to hopes they put the prestige slide and other stuff from the coh collectors edition

Quote:ah, thx for clearing that up, ive never seen a clear explaination of how it worked, kind of always figured the purple patch worked off both con and actual lvlOriginally Posted by Muon_Neutrino
The purple patch doesn't work this way; it's based only off actual level difference. Higher ranks of foes like AVs may well have various mez or debuff resistances, but not from the purple patch. You'll have to go to an actual +level AV before the purple patch kicks in. If you'd like to test this you could use a power analyzer, although AV debuff resistances might make it complicated to see.
(Basically there's a difference between 'con level', which is based on both level and rank and determines the color of an enemy, and simple plain level - the purple patch uses regular level, not con level.)
Also, Kyriani, keep in mind that the double magnitude part of domination doesn't last the full duration - what dom does is activate a second mag 3 hold with a longer duration, so the hold is mag 6 for the first 2/3rds of the duration and mag 3 for the last third. This will complicate your calculations somewhat, best bet is to use city of data to find these numbers. -
targeting never heard of, the inspirations i have noticed seems to have like a 1 sec delay on applying their effect as ive monitored my attributes and popped insp. the last thing is usually caused by server lag, if you are alone then idk

Quote:usually depending on the name, some poeple really like getting a mostly functional base for solo use or restarting the group with little work on their part aside from forking over some inf or some other tradeOriginally Posted by MaestroMavius
That said, I can't really see there being much demand for a used base.
the biggest factor though is the name of the group -
im disappointed they wont revisit old GM encounters, compared to the seed of hami encounter, the old GMs are lackluster, kind of like boomtown vs revamped atlas or mercy
if they are not planning on revamping old GMs, i do hope that they add in more GMs though, i feel every zone should have at least 2 GMs for variety and to have something special happening in the zone -

Hmm, your picture doesn't match the topic at hand. It clearly depicts Winter's Gift.

if the leader said he might not come back and appoint you the new leader, then thats up to you if you want to wait
if your still have sentimental value in the sg then i would keep it and just wait for now, but if you are looking for a more active group then i would look into selling it to a good owner
in the end its really up to you -
in the US a 6 hour maintenance still lasts till like 4 pm or if it was like the last 6 hour maintenance where they had to pull it down again for emergency maintenance, it can stay down till like 7 pm or so
sucks when we got a day off and game is down for all day maintenance lol, although i do appreciate the hardware upgrades -
i havent tried specifically, but i got a broadsword and katana toons im rerolling as brutes (one is stalker one is scrapper) as soon as i21 is out
i dont really care if its better than on a scrapper or not, i just like brute AT better lol -
here is more info about the purple patch
edit: this is also stacked on top of the AVs base resists as well
edit2: the way i was thinking it worked was slightly off, but the wiki page still has the info about it -
the purple triangles do add 50 protection to most mez (this is on top of whatever base protection they have)
the purple triangles do not show up in the combat attributes if you use power analyzer or surveillance
and you have it right, basically just stack up enough mez to get past that threshold and it will permahold if you keep it up (its essentially the same thing as perma confusion through the purple triangles)
while it is possible to do with holds, its much harder to do than with confuse due to the purple patch shortening the duration on the mez slightly (so your 50 sec hold wouldnt be 50 sec vs an even con AV) -
Quote:pretty sure faultline is stone armor/stone melee/earth mastery (the immob and quicksand are gotten in the tanker earth APP)Originally Posted by Obsidius
There are some combos normal players will never have access to, that signature characters do. EX: Stone Armor / Earth Control (Faultline).
now if you want unobtainable combinations:
BABs = super strength/energy melee/invuln
kadabra kill = gravity control/empathy/kinetics
and im sure there are more but those are the 2 most common -
Quote:they are not dropping the feature until the game officially opens to f2p poepleOriginally Posted by tanstaafl
Make it a IP feature <shrug>
I hope it gets revisted sooner than later. Its a feature I like.
Means only can level pact with the sets available at release, not beam weapons/street justice iirc
it will still be available during the VIP head start (street justice wont be out till Q4 this year so that wont be able to pact unless its fixed)
