Not that i noticed, neither did BaB say it did.

Chances getting bigger they leave ice completly alone, maybe only a little increase of tier2 (0.3sec in that case).

Energy is really amazing, just before the tier1 animation finished the 2nd one is already fired (they use same fx), nice change

However, from all tier1/2 i tested now (AR, arch, ice, elec and nrg), AR still seem to have a high noticable rooting with tier2, even extremely long compared to the new changed energy.

I can say, AR realy realy realy became way better

Too bad the 'zone to evade crash' only lasted shortly

Thats quite a while ago though.

bummer

Oh well As long they have lvl bump, i'm happy

The way i read BaB's post, it should be applied already. (as part of normalisation of tier1/2).

Never seems to do any good. I think I've seen none pvp'ers get more kills by accident.

This. AR is good for a pure sniper build, archery is laughable in PvP tbh.

I was just talking about Donna tbh. She is terrible at PvP.

Sadly we cant be all as uber ash you eh?

Easy on donna, they just are part of the 'be ice or fire, else you are gimped in pvp' group. Both AR as Archery got some nice loving in the new testpatch.

My initial new toon was arch/dev, but ran out of slots for the upcomming new sets. Probably making a new one soon

They still got alot of powers to take care off

First of all i was here Pre ED so i have a comparison and a pretty clear view.Second of all i have 8 toons with Full IO's including a Tank which allows me to compare Pre ED,post ED with SO's and post ED with IO's. When you manage to achieve perma hasten,perma Elude,perma AM,almost perma Auras,perma adrenaline boosts,Fortitude that has a 12 second recharge which allows to effectively fort not 8 but 10 people and in our case perma dull pain,ED like recharges on healing flames and taunt/attack cycles then yeah thats pretty enormous change and its close if not a lot similar to pre ED,and i still take into account that not all sets of IO's have been introduced into the game.When the epic IO's introduction is complete in next issues then yeah we will be really close if not prolly exactly to pre ED figures.

From my pov on my granite, i can pretty much say IO-slotting went beyond Pre-ED numbers. Ok my resist/def is somewhat lower, but having a nearly 60% recharge bonus, EE and rooted have more bonus then pre-ED could ever be slotted (ok maybe with HO's). I nulified the -recharge penalty of Granite, something that was plain inpossible alone pre-ED (my EE still has 90/90%ish recharge on its own).

Actually scrapps invincibility taunt is mag 4 also.

[/ QUOTE ]
If i look at City of Data:
Scrapper:
1.25 second Taunt (magnitude 3) to Target if (target = critter)
Effect does not stack from same caster

Tanker
1.25 second Taunt (magnitude 3) to Target if not ((((((target = Class_Boss_Archvillain) or (target = Class_Boss_Monster)) or (target = Class_Boss_Mito)) or (target = Class_Boss_Hamidon)) or (target = Class_Boss_RularuuFM)) or (target = player))
Effect does not stack from same caster

Actualy both 3?
Mudpots and BA stated as mag4, ice even has double mag4.

Good news that is

However, weird that suddenly they open up so much details about all the animation/casting since NCsoft bought it all. All previous posts regarding rooting/animation etc were never said anything about different values regarding rooting/animation/casting (even with BFR, only say faster animation).

The entire run towards issue 11, only defiance was info, but now all of a suddenly they totaly revamping the animations of the sets. Oh well, its good so im happy

Tank taunt is mag 4 iirc, scrapper invinciblity only hits 3.

But have to say, never experienced this, then again i dont have a ice tanker.

If i got enough inf by then to give Sinergy a respec (going for ice epic - hibernate) i'll join up for the ranged damage dealer But highly stuck on my build, so put me up as reserve.

Where IH was a toggle, burn didnt cast fear, no caps... where even Full auto did awsome damage

Maybe idea for the 5year anniversery?

At the level of Atta's you cant even speak about 'tankers', just scrappers with a bit more HP. Willpower makes an interesting change to this though

Isnt that the concept of the entire secondiary of MM? Buff, debuff, heal and hold? What would poison trap add to this?

Nah just the poor quality of those free image hosters

Minor note, it is MaceX without the space (else you sending PM's to my brute, that is Mace X)

Its not the first time they claim redraw became part of the casting, however thus far never worked. I will await results befor doing my /em cheer with pompom balls.

Although 'most of their attack times got shorter'? The current set is 3,5sec flametrower, 6sec Fullauto, 4sec ignite, even shortened i dont think its cut down that insanly it will be equal to the other sets. These are powers that do the damage, but have serious long casting.

(FT is 0.9 over avarage, FA goes way over 2sec, ignite has no equal - ok maybe burn).

Now Shout and Powerburst

Let them just put the changes on test, so at least we can test. Now it only is guessing on numbers.

That is a serious change, specialy /TA will be nice for all the sets using it (MM, defender, troller). Weird that Stun arrow remains 1.83, including the redraw it still goes over 2 sec.

Maybe my 41 merc/TA might be back in business Maybe.. really maybe.

Luckely they seem to focus overall performance first, lets see how the rest will do.

biggest bump post ever... o.0

i can stand in as substitude for the tanker team, although i cant jump or fly (lol @ hammer). Do have nearly perma hasten and believe perma EE. Downside, only got 1 slot in taunt..

At least by tonight i know, +4 vanguard still freaking hurts

So basicly the idea becomes:

-Tier 1/2 into 1 and 1.2 sec casting
-shortrange power acros the board to 1 sec (nrg/sonic)
-The target-AoE all to 1 sec (AR, archery, nrg - has delay)
-Flametrower to equal of firebreath/icebreath (or even align with nrg or sonic?)
-ranged mezzer all to 1 sec (nrg, sonic, ar, archery, elec)

That would make them casting/rooting wise more equal. Yet still Archery and AR remain with redraw, SL-syndrom.

Yet basicly you say TG, PvP is only for Ice and Fire? As they seemed to be gimped with a 0.5 increase casting, while the rest have powers way over 1,67 sec casting.

Oh well, within a month or so the first changes will be there, i'll see what happens.
