New Dawn

Well I can promise you that there is nothing that can be done by the scrappers in the scrapper section that can't be done by people in the stalker section or all by yourself for that matter. Asking someone is basically asking someone to of worked things out for you.

A straight attack chain has to come from your build, you can use the DPA order of priority given to you by Siolfir and compare it to what the Combos would give you. You are better off from having various chains depending on the situation.

Lets say I said that because of my own experiences Elec can't tank. From that you can guarantee half the players reading it, can see that I still haven't learned to play and to top it off I am insulting someone else by limiting them with my lack of intelligence.

In game this is how myths are made, someone says with no authority at all that something needs this or that, or a perfectly doable TF with team that has all the assets within them if they worked together properly is impossible.

My elec will tank.

I haven't been bothered to look into the stalker DB attack chain for anything because my first instinct from looking at the combos was take every attack. I hate doing the maths when my instincts tell me stuff like that.

You can be soft capped to all with SR without Elude as long as you are okay on living without it. Quickness is another one but I find those powers that take a simple slot useful. You can have that at a level when you want slots for everything else and to act like a recharge in every power until you can get to slot them for recharge.

I have a DB/SR Stalker but am discouraged from posting my build as she is personalized but would be very fast at helping someone with theirs, it could have slotting similar to mine but atleast it will have someone elses personal touch remaining which I think is much better as we all play differently anyway.

To help start someone I suggest:

5 Serendipities enh in the toggles
4 Attacks with Touch of Death set.
2 Attacks with Eradication set.
1 Mako set in Assassins Blade.
Passives what needs be.

Rest is down to what power choices people make.

I was min/maxxing Elec/Elec this morning, I ended up losing Power Surge. This will not be the result for everyone. It is simply a case of me, hedging my bets for now, that I would prefer everything else, more often. Initially it was about +rechg for damage and end drain over time followed by keeping the endurance down but found in going for +HP then frankenslotting I had even more recharge!

In giving yourself Elec/Mace to play with you have given yourself something to really think about, play and learn from (think of it as capable because I said it is ) and rise to mastering it. I love the Thor concept, he doesn't fly or superjump does he? He throws his hammer and holds on to it XD. I would go with fly. Yes you have grounded but still, fly. I swapped out Havoc on the /Elec for air sup and then decided to fly myself.

Your basically not relying on the taunt aura alone with Ice and Fire as CE debuffs and if you have icicles does damage and Blazing Aura does damage. They contribute to threat. You should rely on those auras alone.

Taunt adds flexibility, that is essentially what it does. The game favours tankers with taunt for what I can't believe is anything other than the most obvious reasons but one massive reason seems to of flown right over some peoples heads and all the way to 0z. You are theoretically well on your way to tanking any part of the normal PvE content for most any team with that power. I like to have it early at level 10 just because, some people wait until mid 20s and some 40s. Mid 20s is a good middle of the road area as earlier or later you may have powers you prefer first or need to slot well.

Holy thread necromancy. Do whatever anyone else does and post a build for people to look at.

A swing line could come from the netherworld or be some form of unexplainable magic like when Zatanna puts her hand into her hat which then becomes a big hand from the ceiling and picks a man out of the audience. A portal with a hanging rope is available to you every so often. You could have a whip that lashes out grabs a bird or at night a bat from around the ankles.. It would be copycat to do swinging it really unless in an expansion a zone full of vines or something was available to everyone as it fits with the zone.

But I think that Tunneling is the one that fits.Tunneling would be the easy one to do first. There are a lot of earth controllers or dominators and stone tanks or brutes that would so much cooler with it, they could move faster underground. As you can be so far down so as to not tear up the road it could be a stealth power that nothing can detect. You don't have to tear up the road where ever you go, just at the bit where you come out.

I don't care too much about them powers tbh and it would be better if CoX did something different or new. I've always wanted motorbikes myself, to ride up buildings and across buildings would be a bonus. A customizable Jet or a Chopper would be cool too, stuff like that.

Cassieopeia, PB, over 4 years, lvl 50, a mere 329 hours total played at roughly 45min session averages.

Ulyssa, WS, technically exactly the same

What are the rules of the test?

My priorities go Defense, Resist, Heal per Sec (with DP + Accolades you can cap HP) then Damage, Endurance, then Regen because we are talking about an Invuln. In short I think you can make a better build still including build up.

I did exactly the same for soloing. You ever noticed that as a team defender you get invited to a team, help everyone else do their missions and then everyone splits leaving you to solo your old one? You may log and have a string of old missions to do that when you log in again and invited to a team just gets passed over. That was pretty much it with the empath.

I don't really know what Offenders are, Defenders can have an attack chain and use their attacks, an offender would be someone completely lost in them.

I think Caltrops would change to a taunt aura with a tohit debuff or something.

It's nice to see someone else's tank that recognizes defender goodness. I keep hearing how controllers are better than defenders but some controllers in how they play knock that idea round out the back door and across the garden. Why? Because they have an "It's all about me" attitude which you don't have and that is partly imo probably what makes you great.

I think you can free up slots for more fire/cold defense. I realize that S/L really counts but I am intrigued into how Going Rogue make the game look like cake. Pure damage types could do that.
