Can I get auto-firing Fireballs so I can stop pressing that annoying button every spawn. You think shielding people every 4 minutes is a pain, people expect me to be attacking and using Fire Sword Circle every 10-12 SECONDS! Buff bots have it easy.
I'd also like the game to auto-target the most dangerous non-boss/EB/AV mob and then mez it for me for an hour after I activate Char when I log in. -
Quote:That pretty much sums up how I designed the builds the wife and I are using. I put Assault off until the early 20s, since the lower level spawns died plenty fast (not sure how it would have worked out in the late teens though, the Posi TF leveled us to 20, so we had blaster damage to pull us along through those tougher teen levels).Originally Posted by Fulmens
Instead of Swift/Hurdle, Health, Stamina you take Assault, Maneuvers,Hasten and (eventually) Tactics and you let the RA's handle your endurance needs. I imagine there will be slow patches until Adrenaline Boost- hasten will not be perma yet, so there may be times with no RA. On the other hand, +70% damage (Fort + 2xAssault) will speed things up in the DO levels quite some, I would think.
I haven't done this as an organized, dedicated pair yet. I should.
I am wondering about the wisdom of Tactics. With CM, we have +perception, with Fort we have to-hit. We have Tactics, but I am thinking it is uneeded (although maybe later it would be a better choice, as you indicated, I probably just took it too early).
Jump in and do it. The low levels fly by anymore, a good night or two of fun and you can be 20. -
Quote:Possibly. Scrapper and brute defense powers, corruptor and controller buff/debuff powers probably had no intent to cost more.Originally Posted by tarrantm
If that's the case, shouldn't there be equivalence in balancing endurance per defense as well? Controller/Corr/MM toggles (and powers) should cost less than Defender ones due to being less powerful. Right now MM toggle costs are higher than those for Defs and do less. Ooh, and Controller primaries would get a huge end discount over the Dominator primaries too right?
MM buffs/debuffs, OTOH, were purposely increased; the design intent seems to clearly indicate that they were meant to spend more for less. -
Quote:Might as well go with a Sonic defender at that point. 1 Emp, 1 Sonic, 1 Fire. Burn it all. Of course, at 3 people, now the force multiplication really starts to kick in and dropping the blaster becomes more desirable.Originally Posted by BlackBellatrix
I think I'd better just rope a third in and do two Emps and a Blaster. :P
It will be interesting to see if perma-AB and rotating RAs will make the Emp-Emp duo better than the Emp-Blaster duo. -
Quote:I am interested enough in this question that I have started an Emp/Sonic duo with the wife to compare. Its possible we should have gone Emp/Rifle or Archery, but I wanted to go Sonic for the value vs. hard targets. The wife and I both enjoy playing Empathy anyway, so it will be a fun learning process (we have run multiple emp teams before, just never together and never on purpose).Originally Posted by Doomguide
Will the emp+blaster pair be close enough often enough to overcome that deficit in strong bursts of performance *shrug* honestly I'm not nearly enough of a number cruncher to know. All I can say is I feel that is a lot of ground to make up for the lack of mutual support at all levels and builds the emp+blaster duo is facing in comparison. I see the blaster+emp duo as higher peaks and lower valleys. The emp+emp duo meanwhile is essentially a plateau who's height is somewhat less than the others peaks but higher than their valleys.
Its hard for me to imagine outdoing a Fire/Fire (or /Elec or /MM) blaster. Against an AV, the stacking Sonic blasts might overcome the better base damage, but vs. anything else, I think the AoE of the blaster, combined with a ridiculous single target capability will be hard for a defender duo to beat.
Conveniently, we got to team with some blasters while on our duo. We were joined by one SG mate on their AR/Dev; we leveled from 9-14. While we could both Howl, Scream, and Shriek, we could not draw aggro from the blaster (a straggler here and there, of course, but generally the blaster got it all), even when we attacked first, after Buckshot or M30, they would all switch off of us. Once we hit 12, everyone had Fort, of course, and the blaster got the double; spawn melty goodness.
Another SG mate logged in with a level 12 blaster and we ran Posi. We found it was much better to double Fort both blasters, and forgo it on ourselves.
At low levels, on a small team, IME, the emp-blaster duo performs "better" than an emp-emp duo, defeating enemies more quickly and moving through missions faster. -
Quote:Yeah, that is a general proposal that would seem to fall in line with keeping ATs separate. Tankers and defenders would still take longer to kill spawns than blasters and scrappers, but they would not also take (significantly) more endurance. It removes a double penalty (currently they spend more time to kill spawns and must spend more endurance to kill the same amount of enemies, taking longer would seem to be a main part of the design intent, taking more endurance seems to just be a side effect of how things were designed).Originally Posted by Rush_Bolt
For the sake of conversation, I'm using made up values.
Currently, a Blaster spends 1 END for 10 Damage. A Defender spends 1 END for 6 Damage.
Under your system, a Blaster would spend 1 END for 10 Damage and a Defender would spend 1 END for 10 Damage.
Am I understanding you correctly? -
Hover is viable (although it can take some practice), but I would try to max its flyspeed. If you do not mind dropping Blizzard, the following is an idea. Personally, I'd get Build Up sooner, but I exemplar a fair amount.

CoX lets me enjoy all those styles. Which is more fun? All of them. -
I am hoping that the discussion of Dark prior to I16 indicates they will have all the Dark proliferation (blast, control, buff/debuff, manipulation, assault) in for I17 (if such an issue is going to exist; I thought I saw a reference to I17 in a redname post).

Here is a start. The following build is not meant to be used, but just as food for thought, a starting point. If I get more time, I might work on it some myself.

Quote:With CJ, even the slightest of degree off 90 seems to allow one to "climb" walls. On a true 90, even the small window ledges allow one to scale a wall quickly, as if climbing. One would think they could do something with that mechanic, but they have a tendency to prefer to do things the "right" way or not at all (a good thing, IMO, despite the fact that I think they err that way when they do not need to on rare occasions).Originally Posted by Seldom
Hate to say it, it's a limitation I doubt will be overcome. The way much of the game seems to work is around flat surfaces, vertical surfaces seem to function as nothing more than barriers. (And not so much an intractable surface.)
But that's just my assumption from watching the game do its thing -

Bottlenecking them, pulling, or making them come around a corner into an ambush aren't valid strategies? I think they are. Maybe I'm wrong.

Since I can't be a DP / Inv scrapper (sigh), I will probably end make an Emp/DP defender or maybe a Sonic/DP defender.

Quote:With a high recharge build, I can CHOOSE to slow down attacking and use less end. Without a high recharge build, I cannot CHOOSE to speed up attacking.Originally Posted by Redlynne
The only problem I can see with the +Rech route is going to be your endurance usage. Yeah, it may sound great on paper ... but having your end bar continually bouncing to zero makes for a lousy tanker.
If you can't sustain your attacks with all that +Rech over a nigh indefinite period (think steamroller team or mothership raid) then you're a lot better off going with the soft capped DEF build.
Making the build high recharge does not mean you must run out of endurance, but it does give you the option (for as long as the end lasts). I'd rather have options, personally. -
The looks pretty good to me. You could take the Adj. Targeting in Fort and make it a To-hit/Rech or just use a Rech common IO.
You could slide the Triple LotG out of Weave (you only lose 0.2% defense and stay range capped) and into Adrenalin Boost as the Miracle End/Rech (which is pretty cheap) to get some more HPs (or into Ball Lightning to get more recharge).
There are a fair number of mez effects that are not typed Ranged, so this will help, but not eliminate mezzing. -
Solo Build - It would be nice to supplement with a pool attack, but melee attacks are out of concept I guess.

Team Build - You want your single target hold. Taking out a sapper, a sorcerer, and bosses with hard control is a big part of the job. AoE immobs on a team draw more aggro than you need to deal with, are of limited benefit, and often prevent your team from whatever positioning of enemies they want to do. I moved it to late in the build, because they aren't bad, used wisely, but you could replace it with Fallout or Mutation or Lift, IMO. You are mostly designed to work from range. World of Confusion is of dubious use for someone who lives in melee. It's wholly non-useful for this character.
