Viable in terms of 'quickest'. Surely some AV's can be done by blaster/defender, but _any_ AV is very very unlikely

Added, MA AV's, new challenges.

On villian side i would say brute. Wich exactly would be testing, but my granite would have sufficient defence and as we can have enough IO's, bunch of LotG's and doctor's to get enough +recharge.

On hero side, either they lack damage (tanker), they may be on defence issues (scrapper), i dont see defender or blaster viable doing so.

Mine are quite identical to Carni, although i'm a /trap wich include detonate. So a grant invis, send pet in and go boom, while having flash-nades as alpha takers.

Mine are all bind to my mouse, having 2 buttons combined with shift, ctrl and alt-clickies. (normal is goto/attack, shift is pet-specific goto, ctrl is follow 2 style, alt is def/agro mode - passive i just click the icon in my tray).

If you don't have a compatible NVIDIA graphics card and/or a 120Hz monitor.

This.
Only reason why the whole 3D stuff wont work, will never work. Added, this has been done years ago already, with the Nvidia TI series.

Eden trial, pre-agro-cap nerf ftw!

Hewwo, Be vewy qwuiet..Im humpin a wabbit.. hehehehehehe.

Anyway, reason why i moved to the US. From sewer buffing, farming, doing missions.. imho way stuff to do. And i combine with 6 other MMOs

Maybe confused with the 75% base hit players have? (30+40+5 = 75%).

[ QUOTE ]
Does 30% sound high enough? Could I go toe to toe against most enemies? Anyone have any ideas.

[/ QUOTE ]
Always look at both sides.
A simple mob (minion, your lvl) has 50% hit chance. There is a 5% floor, the 'always hit' chance. If you want to reach 'maximum' defence against this mob, you need 45% defence. This 45% is the so called 'softcap', going beyond 45% defence wont mater as the mob only has 50% and your 45% + 5% floor = 50%

Also combine, if you lower their accuracy, less chance to hit. More defence you get, the bigger the gap, and specialy /dark is awsome in this part (along -acc from graveknights).

EDIT: or do yo want a leveling build?

Afaik he did all this pre-nerf of the poison trap.

(making a EB/AV vomit all the time was nearly an exploit )

You're meant to celebrate 50s? Thought you just went to a trainer, got a grat's thread and then alted again.

But I guess I never did the whole social gathering thing anyway, well not since PDP was changed and the parties stopped

[/ QUOTE ]
I also play US side, in atlas its still alot of fun to be. sewer hunts, costume contests, lvl50s being happy etc.

[ QUOTE ]
Mercy has:

Trainer.
Kalinda/Burke (cape and aura mishes)
Black Market
A large plaza with a LOT of flat space and no enemy spawns.
Architect Entertainment
Snakes

[/ QUOTE ]
Entrance to RWZ? (aka, shortcut to PI from atlas).

And, wich is very popular US, sewers?

Even galaxy is way better then mercy (atlas > galaxy, always).

But like that huge golden temple, you cant serious go there 'to hang out'. Need to enter 2-3 doors, cant happy jump jump, its out of reach for too many.

Key of succes on heroes, its the starting zone. Lvl1 lvl14 or 50, all can hang out and do lotsa stuff. Like where do you celebrate your lvl50? Pocket D? Nah, atlas park for life baby!

use some google dude WoW has an entire scene for boxers, along with the 'echo' programs.

Even greater having a G15 while you're at it, macro's, custom keys, everything in the box

my max was 4 clients, 2 on each computer: tanker, spine/fire scrapper, fire/sonic troller and empath on auto-heal. Setting it up each mission is quite annoying, so i went back to WoW for boxing, way 'boxer friendlier'

Hm, i can find myself into your story.

Mercy is imho too big, too little. In Atlas, its packed, its fun and lotsa things to do (sewer thing, lvl50s hopping around, Ah nearby etc). Mercy you're on the top of some building, nothing around except a huge place with .. mobs.

All you do is run to some snakes, get lvl2 and run through entire Mercy just to finish some missions and move on.

CoV lacks places 'to hang out', such as Galaxy or Atlas, but even PI (main center of all lvl50 missions). Places that are 'static' to their missions are that 'scattered' nobody is hanging around the same place.

And offcourse, everything is dark, grey, sober.. why cant a villian work in 'friendly' places? (such as IP or such).

On /traps i never really needed stamina. Have a few blues as backup, but never really problems. Unless maybe you run a bunch of toggles, CJ, acro, 2 leadership, shield etc, in my case i only had the shield.

But, if i can fit em all in, i always try to pick stamina. Just makes live a bit easier

Depends on the AT he is, and AT i am.

Me tanker, he blaster and being too trigger happy?
Simple, i dont taunt a few and let him take a few beating.

Me healer, he same story?
Just dont heal him.

Those are with the 'n00bz', people just too damn annoying and think they are 'ubah' and 'funnehz!'. And thats where the difference kicks in towards a newbie, people who just dont know the 'roll' of the game.

Specialy as troller or blaster, it can be confusing how the tanker works (dash in, pull group, teleport a few etc), but they often get along in the mission quite fast.

But, i never quit. Because you only put yourself to blame, specialy if its hard to get a team. Exception is, if he is teamleader, other cases i also give the leader a PM telling about it. Some cases if he dies, nobody rez him and he/she will learn it rather fast.

But you cant always have 'good' teams, thats part of a community. You got bad people, good people, elite people and new people. Mix em, have fun

Only think i notice, droprate goes down, but quality goes up. Well, at least for now

Me thinks it also has to do with the mobs you fight.

Certain mobs has been farmed to oblivion, i gues they lowered droprate on that side.

I dont believe droprate is related to lvl if you fight the same mobs (thus as 50 and 49 fighting the same mob), added that its already quite hard to 'measure' droprate.

afaik u can have / or | in your name.

So i go for
w01V3r1n3

Lui had 1 billion a while ago.

Thats close to my slotting (my build has to tough/weave - took fly pool).

I never took the effort to put my full build in hero builder.

edit, uploaded a screenshot: clicky

Then i would focus on +regen and +health (for cap), then where possible +movement and use heroplanner to see how much you need on resist/defence to hit as high possible. Also get some psi def/resist sets, as granite lacks that part.

I'm really not familiair with IO sets, but i think you can get pretty far without 'borking up' your build.

But, for movement you will need a kin if you go rooted/granite. (granite or rooted alone you can move decently with just 3slot swift).

Whats you budget?

With weave and granite defence, you might be able to even go softcap defence, along with capped resist. Get some extra +sprint bonus, along 3 slotted swift.

But even with alot of +sprint, you wont move 'normaly' with rooted/granite.

or weapon, i would say mace. Slightly better then axe, but both look 'weird' on a supersize pile of rock.

I think valve can/could do this because they mostly have FPS. However in MMO world you need to be way way way more dynamic on system specs, the engine they use will has to work for several years (ours is like 5 years old), while valve and sortlike can come with a new engine every 2-4 years (crio, UT etc engines).

i dont know anyway that can keep 60fps at max settings in _any_ situation (hami raid, 8 thug mm etc), i for one not.

I consider the tier9 they use or freaks selfheal/rez as secondairies, kinda everything defensive based (hench they cant even keep up a normal bubble properly).
