If I'm doing my math right, a brute with capped Regen and base HP will regen more HP/sec than a scrapper with capped Regen and base HP. At capped HP, the brute would pull even further ahead.

Not saying it wouldn't be nice, but why would brutes need their regen cap increased?

A bunch of flying Swords/Axes/Maces (selected in the customization screen) swoop down from above and cut/chop/bash the crap out of everything around you (PBAoE) or around your target (TAoE).

EDIT: I was wrong:

There are no new Tsoo bosses.

Apparently, Longbow has taken over Fort Darwin, and you'll start in the actual city part of the zone now. Some of the new missions will send you to help retake Darwin.

That's a long-standing flaw with the system. People who go to a physical store and buy game time cards and never use a credit card/paypal can still "cover the subscription". Fortunately, CoH: Freedom will fix that.

You can hold 3 tips, or one for each empty fame slot, whichever is less. On that fifth mission of the day, you still have one tip (the current one) and when you complete it, the tip disappears and the fame slot fills. If you're working solo, you CANNOT do more than 5 tips per day (plus an Alignment mission if your Alignment bar fills, plus the Halloween tip if it's the appropriate season, plus the Mortimer Kal unlock if you're a villain or rogue).

If you do tips on a team, and get a full complement while doing OTHER peoples' tips, you can do as many as you want of the others' tips, then run your own three. However, you will still cap at 5 Fame points per day.

I put in a Kinetic Crash: Rech/End instead of the D/E or A/D on Explosive Arrow, and got pretty close to the numbers I was looking for. If the JV triple is as cheap as you say, I may go with that slotting. Thanks!

Correct.

Procs can only fire when a power activates (subject to the "once per 10 seconds") rule. Toggles fire every second or two, and each pulse of a rain or patch is a pseudopet is also a power activating. Long duration powers still only activate once, when first clicked.

Note that the 10 second limitation only applies to a single application of a power. For example, down in the Brute section, someone mentions having a build that gets Burn down to a 6 second recharge. If he droppen a Burn patch with a proc in it, the proc would trigger right away, and again 10 seconds later. If he dropped a second burn patch as soon as it recharged, it would proc right away, and again 10 seconds after it was created. Therefore the proc would trigger at 0, 6, 10 and 16 seconds, and this would be fine, because the 0 and 10 procs are on a seperate timer from the 6 and 16.

For the same reason, procs are popular in naturally fast recharging powers. A proc in a blast with a 4 second recharge (slotted to 2 seconds or less) will trigger every time the blast is fired!

Yeah, but how old is he in Arcanatime?

In any persistant power - this includes rains, patches and toggles - the proc fires on activation and, if the power lasts 10 seconds or longer, once every 10 seconds the power lasts. Note that this doesn't apply to blasts or melee attacks that have a DoT like Mignight Grasp or Flares.

Also, in case you didn't know, the chance for damage is checked individually on each target. It is NOT a "hit them all or hit nobody" chance.

Adjusting the slider does nothing for rolls: Random Rolls are always at your level, or as close as possible for things with a limited level range. The slider affects the levels of direct purchases only. I believe it's olny useful at the vendor if you're buying TO/DO/SOs or common IO recipes.

To the OP: I roll Bronze or Gold 10-14. I don't have a lot of choice though - My farmer is level locked at 10 and farms Neogumbercules' lowbie farm map.
