So at level 50, level 54 enemies have +20% ToHit against you?

[/ QUOTE ]
iirc thats 20% of the base 50% tohit, not 50+20%.

Ok emergency here, when i loaded up CoH went straight into blue screen. After reboot my HD cant be even found anymore.. it freaking died (found 7 badsectors already, still going).

Going to rush to computer store here, getting stuff running again, at least i know why i bought a laptop again

Currently the V_day event is running also, some might give that priority. I would, but i have the dissapearing tileset issue.

Tanker would be handy Or else a empath defender?

My pure empath moment earlier, got only 2 rad attack, rest is empath. Got in a team, trollers tankers and leader was blaster. Mostly fighting orange/red, HP bars happily filled.

Blaster: Dude, stop healing the scrapper, he is a regen
Me: I'm not healing him..
Blaster: Yes you do, i see green numbers at him
Me: He's regen, he got dullpain and selfheal, he's in my heal aura.
Blaster: No he doesnt..
-At that moment the team was laughing
Me: Instead, let the tanker grab alpha, so i can care less about a agro pulling blaster.
Blaster: I know what i'm doing
He runs to a group, fireball and SS about 100ft away, dies.
Tank grabs agro, we finish of the mobs, i go rez the guy.
Blaster: WHY U NOT HEALING ME?!?
Me: Oh just forget it..
-Quit team
Shortly after, i get a PM of the tank, Blaster kept saying in teamchat i was such a lousy healer, they are better off without.

Life of a empath, you gotta live with it

Wednesday i'm in Got pretty fed up with Union for a bit, bunch of stupid trashtalking KSing people over there..

I only check announcements, never the main website.

Events? Where?!? When?

Edit, nvm found it

So perhaps its less crowded at defiant, i enjoy it more atm. Made quite some new toons on both servers, on defiant several times during rikti raids i got a random invite from high lvl people and got skéd up, dispite the few fighting we stand ground and had a great time. On union however, trashtalk, scolding, insulting or nonstop KS'ing (had a lvl37 following me nonstop all around atlas, he kept attacking everything i tried to hit).

And a big thx to the lvl50 empath that kept me alive

Nope, defiant ftw! If it goes, i go with it

I got my hand on 2 of those lovely -4 KB IO's (resist and defence one) and put them in my firetanker so i can drop acro and take TF.

I was doing a few rikti missions, where i faced quite some drones. Now i noticed a few times i did got knocked down, so am wondering is the KB IO only for knockback or do these drones stack up more then my -8 i currently have? 6-7mil isnt that much to get another one, but prefer saving the money

Yes i know i'm earlier and there is already a topic.
But as we are tankers, we are the ones focusing on our defence. As i read:
[ QUOTE ]
The set offers decent smashing, lethal, psi and toxic resists, and poor resistance but decent defense to fire, cold, energy and negative energy. Tankers and Brutes have a taunt aura called "Rise to the Challenge" that raises regeneration for every enemy in melee.

[/ QUOTE ]

So kinda like a inv tanker but with def-per-mob, a regen-per-mob. I wonder how much regen that would be, as inv gets quite some defence from his aura.

As it seems to be based on passive, this could be a end-friendly set. But i do wonder, is regen good for a tanker? Imho it needs quite alot to migate the damage such as def or resist.

On my granite i hardly notice anything on my 200-300% regen of rooted.

If you go for a melee drainer, its pretty nice addition to AoE damage, specialy if u have short ciruit/powersink slotted with 3endmod. Around a tanker it provides a nice PBAoE damage also.

The holds are part of the strength of elec and ice, they can solo hold bosses, wich is great in soloplay. Some combo's can even get close to hold a EB/AV solo.

imho storm is quite relying on situation/location. Instead of gathering them, often happens huricane actualy scatters them making debuffs from rad and dark way less usefull. Office/hitech maps are nice places, but in openfield/cave it often can go wrong.

In officemaps etc we can just use bunch of cornerpulling, but its the open places and big caves where we go wrong. Or even just stand behind some obstacle and trow em from there. Believe we get 5 blank-AoE's (1storm, 1dark, 2sonic and 1 TA), should be enough to strike a full group of mobs on alpha wich include lotsa KD and capped slow.

Bots, zombies instant detonate destroying pet, like a mini-nuke.

Merc, thugs and ninja try to plant a bomb like tripmine with a very short timer. They can survive it however.

/mace looks rather funny in granite, like holding a ice-lolly.
I have /SS, love it, like it. Specialy the 'strength' feeling of a clumb of stone smashing other mobs and footstomp is a awsome damage migation. Old SG member had a stone/fire, nice too.

p00t p00t!
I used to have munition on my blaster, it did a few KB's once in a while, i mostly used it pre-LRM -> blizzard

18.15 for the UK, 19.15 for me

The radius of Frozen Aura is only 10ft, although its the animation of footstomp (15ft), 10ft is too small to grab a group. I used to do this, but its imho way to dangerous as most mobs in melee can be pretty dangerous, specialy at the lvl you get the power. Pulling on a icepatch is way safer, specialy with CE running. Its marked for me as 'power never to get'.

As for sleep grenade:
Launches a Sleep Grenade at long range from beneath the barrel of your Assault Rifle. This small blast does minor smashing damage but affects all foes within the blast radius, and can knock them back.

We used to play with 7, due French kiss having computer issues, wich seem to be resolved now But you can always join up, i gues its not possible to get everyone online at the same moment.

wednesday sounds good, although i have to go earlier, got exams on thursday

Not wanting to correct you or anything, but if the team is doing invincible missions, and the blaster is 2 levels lower than the Mission owner that minion could be 4-5 levels over him and without a chance for Sidekicks.
So, theoretically, the blaster could have a bit of problem against the minion alone. And the situation i just described are of a quite common occurence.

[/ QUOTE ]
Now that is one of the theoretical situations a blaster finaly can use his defiance

I say, close to 0
