It's funny how people are suddenly talking about rolling AR toons now that weapon customisation is coming.
TBH the gun is ugly as [censored].

You're forgetting the normalisation of tier1/2, they drop back to 1 and 1.67sec activation, that is a HUGE chunk out of the animation.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, burst activates really nicely now,
haven't noticed any changes for slug.
But when I've played it looks like ignite, flamethrower and full auto take slightly longer to activate nowdays.

[/ QUOTE ]
Slug seems wrong imho, doesnt match all other tier2's (too long rooting still).

The others seem to be related to the redraw fix (well fix..), sometimes i can already fire another power while de DoT of FA is still ticking.

13.37 sec, so leet!

Numbers look pretty nice, makes you feel bitty like Dual Blades, you have to look at good combo's in order to reach efficient high dmg bonus

Hm, so starting of with a snipe gives a awsome damage boost (Ice still has BFR to compensate it - and a huge ST attack chain).

But if you're right about cone's, FA would give a pathetic low buff (it has a huge cone range) not to mention LRM mission (snipe range AoE).

Sortlike, but each buff is static on time. Unlike fury wich keep going up as long you are in combat, defiance attacks will just end the buff after 7.5sec.

You got a perfect grade for "there are dumb people everywhere and they'll pay for anything lol"?

Education standards ARE slipping!
(back in my day that'd not get you more than a B+)

If you state it like that, i wouldnt even give a F.

Mine was luckely a bit more complex and morethoughted then such simpleminded view.

Thats correct.

Defiance 2.0 is bugged on the testserver

*already imagining a 100% dmg buff, Buildup and popping Full Auto*

AGAIN AGAIN!!

I have a more serious questions. Why someone who pay for PL would actually PLAY the game? If you want a ready toon, simply dont play an MMORPG.This is not going toward Donna, just generally my opinion.

[/ QUOTE ]
That is a whole different story, 99% based on opinions, PoV's and how the world is running. Specialy here, quite pointless to start a discussion about it.

(i wrote a report about this for school, economy, how it all affects each other and if there is any balance between it all - got a perfect-grade for that )

If I could blow my own trumpet I wouldn't waste time playing this game

[/ QUOTE ]
There is this picture on the inter... ah nvm that.

Just remind me to stay at least 10ft away from you ingame, you never know if you suddenly get the urge to blow 'someones trumpet'.

Yup, totaly replace the old defiance.

Blappers were stupid in the first place anyway

No to your edit:
(i), (ii) and (iii) are defiance 2.0, blaster only inherent.

The general balance is done to match ALL sets more together, of ALL AT's. Only those that wouldnt benefit, or would loose efficiency are left alone.

I asume the normalisation initialy came from Defiance 2.0 part (i) and (iii), but are extended to a full review of alot of sets, thus became a complete seperate 'global fix' to CoH/V and each AT.

It is not only activation time (hence i call it normalisation), but also redraw timing, rooting time and after-power delay. And for some even recharge time (archery).

Faster/shorter -> more shots in short time -> more little buffs in a row -> more damage.

The 'normalisation' however was more focused to balance out the sets, there was a huge difference. That it indirectly is linked to defiance 2.0 is just an extra to balance out future issues with defiance (ice could gain way more dmg buff from 2.0 then a AR could).

So in short:
animationchanges = Balance overall (as it included TA and Mace)
Defiance 2.0 = 12,5% ranged buff, mezzed tier1/2 shoot, new bonus system as in OP.
Normalisation is linked, but not part off defiance 2.0

i thought the AreaModifier is always to negative the buff, that its the single target powers that will get the bigger buff. (at least thats what i read from the testserver patch notes).

Snipe shots seem to give a nice bonus I wonder what FA and flametrower will give on buff (4 and 3sec)

GG is just a bot that insert random smileys at posts, with sometimes weird replies taken randomly of the net.

Yet programmed to persue the ultimate goal in CoH, animated hair.

Sometime scary though.

Actually is not that equal.When someone pays to powerlevel first of all allows thrid parties to exploit CoX intellectual property and make money out of it.Second of all the player paying hands over the account to someonone else temporarily thus having not the slightest clue what goes on from 1-50 regarding powers etc etc.

At least when i (i put myself in this position since i pl as well after doing the normal way quite a few times) powerlevel some new PvP toon i get the feel of it at every chance i get even when farming.

[/ QUOTE ]
Still equal, those who use the services may aswell be already very experienced with CoH. The only difference, when you do it, you keep the inf and recipes, they just get a high lvl char in return.

Its not the method, its the people.

[ QUOTE ]
If they are "well known" for taking payment for PL why the [censored] havent they been banned...this sort of [censored] spoils the game for ppl that actually like to lvl and find no other ******* has bothered actually playing the game, this usually ends up with a person at lvl 50 without a clue what they are doin, cant we start a name and shame on here or is that against the rules (oh and im still on my break for the forums but this has wound me up )

[/ QUOTE ]
They are equal as people do it 'for free'. Makes no difference at all.
The bad part? The hypocrite people pointing at 'bad' people.

Again can we get back on topic, Test run for tankie went well was in SC for 10 mins on Sat night, Energy stalkers still causing more grief than i'd like. Even with Res energies..

I have SO's slotted atm and they give about 20.3% res each

Need to look into getting the % higher and increasing my Max hp + regen.

Anyone that's up for badge hunting tonight get me in game on

I asume you do know AS has a serious high portion of unresistable damage, added as far i know the 'critical' portion of the hide->attack is also unresistable (or at least the scrapper crit is).

Even my granite cant survive multiple hits from stalkers.

Sadly we cant be all as uber ash you eh?

[/ QUOTE ]

True, you cant.

Secondly, Archery is pure lawlage in pvp. As globey said Assault rifle could work for a sniper build, based on defiance playing. Fire > all in zonal pvp and ice > all in arena pvp, blaster wise. My opinion.

[/ QUOTE ]
And thats why PvP in CoH remains the most gimped and pathetic PvP of nearly any MMO i played..

But anyway, continue your uberness..

[ QUOTE ]
The answers to your problems I already know.

In telling you I just take away all your fun in working things out.

Sorry.

[/ QUOTE ]
Easy, get a granite

Just for info, why you take manuevers? Only for the LotG?

I thought accolades will be only available on the lvl you have gained them?

Is the damage bonus based on your origen any good?

Today i'll be getting the perma wand/staff on my 2nd account, so might as well go try a troller on that side. I asume the perma wand/staff dont benefit from containment (just like SoM)?

My earth troller plays more 'easy', the -def really helps SoM and AS to hit alot, together with easier hit for sonic siphon.
The ice troller goes slower, but get hit way less due the lotsa -recharge (chillbain nonstop), misses are getting pretty annoying now.

It boils down on my idea of putting that AoE -res toggle on the pet. The stone version is pretty much imume to psi and mez, giving him 2 sonic bubbles he's cap resisted on all other elements too. But as i read, he's very slow. I seen jack in action often now, he's pretty fast and good dmg dealer, but just lacks alot of protection. Anyone has a stone troller that can shine a light on the stone pet?

And i have a WP/stone also (I basicly made every possible WP or DB set i could think off, day before the lvl36 bump)

Yet, those are tight builds, but you can leave tough/weave basicly out since you can migate a huge chunk of damage because of the 2 aoe knockdown/stun. Add a few ST stun/KD/hold and it does really lovely.

Downsides? End heavy, slow recharge and mainly SL. I did quite alot rikti missions on invinc, a very nice set that works lovely. It feels way more 'tough' then the WP/fire, although it does do somewhat less damage. -slow is your enemy, -end.drain is not funny, but outside that it works good.

All my attacks (fist, 2 hammers, 2 aoe, BU) were 2acc/2dmg slotted on -1 (35 SO on lvl36), i still was doing pretty good damage output and i never actualy got on very low health. SoW is up quite often, gives a good resist boost to survive just somewhat longer.
