Quote:You're right with the Super strength guys it's always been about the knock back!Originally Posted by SuperFerret
I agree, and as someone who's already admitted a love of melee combat, it's somewhat contradictory in some people's eyes when I say that I also love knockback too.
It makes the battles feel more dynamic. Superman and Doomsday didn't stand in one spot on the street and pound each other (well, okay, they did, but not throughout the whole fight), they knocked each other across the entire United States before ending up in Metropolis.
Also...call me crazy...and I guess I should of expected this but...I had no idea Domination ups the chances of Stun in the Energy Assault Set lol. *blush* -

Well, I already have a 37 Claws/SR Scrapper. And a 13 Claws/Elec. And a 3 Claws/WP. Do I really need a 4th Claws? >.> <.<
Yes! I have like 4 Plant Doms lol. -

Quote:Heh, my first toon was a Ill/Stormie as well! It sure taught me a lot about end control!Originally Posted by Carnifax_NA
My first character 5 years ago was a Illusion/Stormie so I'm used to knockback and general chaos at this stage
I noticed last night I could queue Power Push and Bone Smasher so as they went flying they also get clobbered which is great fun (and means they're probably dead anyway by the time they land).
I understand whatcha sayin'...it's not that I CAN'T handle KB...I just can't handle getting kicked from teams b/c of KB(I freak out). Like several friends have told me though, as long as you play smart on teams you have nothing to worry about. If they kick you just b/c you dish out kb you shouldn't team with them anyway. -
I'm not a fan of KB since I've had some traumatic experiences with other players for having a toon that KB's...even though I shouldn't let that affect me...it has a bit regardless.
After the buff to Energy Assault I've been dying to try out the set. I was planning on making a grav/nrgy or mind/nrgy but I think I will go Plant/nrgy. I know nrgy's soft controls keeps you alive but plant should be a good back up b/c it's so awesome. Plus plant is slowly starting to be my favorite control set besides elec. -
Indeed Huntsman bring SO much to the table! AR blasters bring dmg...and that's about it.
-
Consume now is AMAZING. So much so I had to change my build on several toons just to include it!
-
awesome!
-
Ah! I have friends like that who pick powers sometimes based on looks. I can understand where you are coming from somewhat. I'm glad you decided to squeeze it in once the stamina thing goes down. You will be glad you did!

Quote:I'm a bit torn between dark and storm...I do know though storm would do more dmg...but dark would bring more safety.Originally Posted by beyeajus
very thematic too. their ST-damage on top of the -resistance from freezing rain would make them cut through mobs like butter. actually, since you're going with bots, the burn patch on top of the freezing rain would be brutal, or Tar Patch if you go with /Dm for that matter.

Quote:Ok...I can't help but meddle...I have to bite...why did you skip it?Originally Posted by ToxicMantis
Hey, well I didn't even get a travel power, and I don't even have Ninja Run.. and it's not like my guy isn't any good right now, so he is only going to get stronger, which I am happy about.

You didn't take Bitter Ice Blast? @_@

Quote:Ninjas and Merc were my first test MM's. I love the Chaos of ninjas so I would love ot mix them with something like Storm just to give myself even more of a headache.Originally Posted by beyeajus
enjoy, they're awesome. Give Nin/Ta a try sometime, it's pretty chaotic.

Quote:Thanks so much Simon! I spent 20 minutes trying to see if there was a thread discussing the changes. I just gave up. TY for the help!Originally Posted by SimonSayz
Here's the thread that talked about it:

Also, the fear effect is gone and it does less damage than before primarily because it seems to be using the new scrapper's burn patch pet.
I might actually make a Bots MM now *gasp* -
Quote:I know sorry. I meant to say compared to the old redside prices it's very affordable. Sometimes I slip up and say redside/blueside markets.Originally Posted by Jetpack
Market is merged - there is no blue side or red side market now - just the market.
-
I'm not a MM player at all but I believe I've seen on team that the Ignite patch/burn patch that bots lay down after their 32 upgrade no longer causes fear correct? I know the Thugs one does but I'm not so sure about bots.
-
LOL, why the Venom? A SS anything can do the same thing. Plus Ice/Ice doesn't kill that fast...well it didn't until we got access to sleet. mwehehe :3
-
Ah ok.

Quote:Yeah J. The price has dropped a crazy amount on Red side...I would say by several million on red side for the crafted enhancements. You can also actually find them on the market now. Blue side had a bit easier though. Even Luck of the Gambler is affordable!Originally Posted by Jibikao
Wow.. price has dropped that much?!!! I haven't bought them for a while. Last time I checked (was probably a month ago), there wasn't even one for sell at lvl 20 and there were a lot of bidding so I didn't bother.
Did you just get lucky?

Quote:Yep, I pooped on my self as well man. The only catch is you can't use powers like Fulcrum Shift and whatnot. the only powers you can use are power like Fort, Forge...stuff like that. I used SB on them but I doubt it works b/c they are pets.Originally Posted by Nalrok_AthZim
... holy @$%&.
Seriously? -
Quote:Yes. I mean if you don't use it that's cool I was just asking. It seems with this game that there's still so much to learn even after all this time...for instance I didn't know you could buff Phantom Army is you Phase Shift! I just found out last week from a vet friend lol.Originally Posted by Leo_G
I think they misconstrued when you said "DA/Parry provide rather silly amounts of mitigation" as "DA/Parry provide bad or inconsequential amounts of mitigation".
-
That sleep power makes me cry happy man tears. Seriously.
-
Wow, The lady Grey Proc added some nice dmg and debuff I likey thanks for the heads up!
-
No Problem Bio. I read up on my powers and abilities but my patience for anything math only goes so far.

Oh! Sorry you mean as a constant chain! No, by no means can you do that but you can do it in bursts. Pretty much what stops it from being a chain is the recharge on Placate.
Positioning indeed doesn't matter for that attack. If they are close they will be hit even if they are standing behind you. I just tested that on some LB who were crowded up close to me.
I wish mids could show you the numbers of attacks when you manage to crit from hide.
