Vitality

I'm guessing this should easily be possible.
I want to make a Dark/Dark/Dark Defender that can solo.

I'm trying to come up with a blapper build.

What are some of the best?

Thanks for your replies. I have started digging into the SS and Stone secondary. I was interested in the DM but it didn’t fit my concept. I also decided that the weapon sets didn’t fit my concept either.

Heraclea your guide was helpful. Great summary on the attack sets.

G_tanker you said you saw a lot of WP tankers face plant on the 54 boss farm. Why do you think they face planted and how can you build a tanker to avoid that? Does WP suck at Tanking?

[/ QUOTE ]

Let me answer for G_tanker.
I'm going to guess the WP Tanks he saw faceplant either did not have Tough and Weave or just were not good at Tanking.
It could also be the lack of mitigation in their secondary depending on their build.

My WP/SS easily stands in the middle of the pack against level 54 bosses.

The other form of mitigation in Dark Melee that Willpower benefits from is, of course, the to hit debuff that almost every attack has to some extent. These stack as well, and can be stacked fairly easily on high priority targets. This also strengthens Willpower's defensive side, which looks unimpressive on paper, and do still more once Weave is in place.

This benefits Ice and Shields even more, of course.

With set bonuses WP's Defensive numbers look very impressive.
My Energy/Neg is at 40% and my Fire/Cold is at 46%.

I'd imagine nothing will change with respect to villains getting patrons at lvl 41 and heroes getting epics at lvl 41. A villain AT will probably have the patrons open up at lvl 41 just like they do with heroes and the epic power pools.

The only diffenence between patrons and epics is that it never ocurred to the Devs players should have to complete a story arc to have access to epic power pools.

In hindsight the Devs perhaps wish they had created story arcs for epic power pools. Maybe a redname will chime in on that point of speculation.

What I'm wondering is...if I bring my corrupter over to the hero side do I get to select Epics since I can no longer do the Patron arcs.

[/ QUOTE ]

We really don't know, Vitality. The Devs haven't announced any information along those lines yet. All we can do is speculate.

[/ QUOTE ]

I got that...I just don't think that person understood what I was asking.

You see the Green.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's [censored]...but oh well.

It activates every 4 seconds.
Does it just heal you passively or do you have to see green numbers every 4 seconds?

I'm looking forward to leveling up my necro/pain MM.
World of Pain has the potential to be perma.
Suppress Pain gives me the potential to heal 3.2%/sec.

What happens with your Epic and Patron powers?

Say your a villain and you switch to a hero...do you get to select Epic Powers or what happens?

I know I could probably search for information on this combo but I'm wondering what the pros and cons for this build are.

I've been messing around with this build in mids.
I would only be taking the powers from Pain Domination that also affect the user.
How survivable could this combo be?
Has anyone rolled one of these?

How are Masterminds in PvP these days?

I'm wondering how Pain Domination will fair.

What is the "best" way to slot this?

Does this increase your regeneration also?

This seems great for a magic concept build.

What are the pros and cons?

Daaaammmmnnnnn....

Looking for advice on the best AV killing build.

About how much Inf is needed to softcap a /SR Scrapper?

[/ QUOTE ]

My /SR is sitting at 42.5% to all positions with just the 3 SR toggles, Weave, CJ and the Steadfast +3% Defense.
I will be softcapped when I pick up Stealth for my next power.

I'm using level 30 generic IOs.

To be honest I see the OPs point.
I remember I could take my level 50 to PI and easily get on a team.
Now I go to PI and it's almost completely empty.
Now all the level 1 thru 49s just stand in the AE in Atlas to join farm teams.

I'll admit I took my Scrapper from level 30 to level 43 in a couple days of AE missions, but when I finally went out to get on a team for actual gameplay missions there was no one to team with.
So much so that I was forced to either solo or go back to Atlas to join another AE missions team...which mostly consist of farms.

[/ QUOTE ]

No they don't. I have only entered the AE building for the Explore badge marker and to get that infernal contact off my list.

My apologies...not "all" of the players do this.
It was an over exagerration to get a point across.

Mercs...aka Soldiers would be a perfect fit.

Generals, Commanders...even the President (sometimes) are considered heroes.
They deploy Soldiers to war and look at them as expendable.

Ahhhh honesty ... so refreshing

[/ QUOTE ]

I am being completely honest with my answer.
I would probably be happy about my Tanker surviving more but it's the fact that any player can roll a Tank and survive just as easy as I can without knowing what they're doing.

An unexperienced player cannot protect teammates as good as I can so thats what I enjoy most about my Tank.

I enjoy survivability more when I play my Scrapper.

First; I like the fights. I like massive chaotic knockdown-dragout brawls that last for five minutes straight. Most of my really fun memories in CoH usually revolve around those types of fights. A guilty pleasure is watching my group wipe (multiple times) on the same fight and reform while I'm still going at it the whole time, to eventually overcome that particular encounter.

[/ QUOTE ]

I personally cannot stand when I let my teammates die in battle.
I play my Tank to protect others, and if I can't do that then I fail. I'm a Tank, it's increadibly easy for me to survive most things in this game without help...my challenge is keeping the team alive.

Male is my gender...but I'm not 300lbs.

I am going to put an end reducer in Smite...I'm going to slot the Heca damage proc in MG...I'm going to replace one Mako for a Numina Heal/End/Rec in SL.

As for the endurance problem people mention...I would not be running Tough...but even if I did I believe my DC and Conserve Power will basically give me unlimited endurance vs AVs.
