    Darlin, look at his Avatar, the only thing he wants to do to the Loyalist Tyranny is to be in charge of it.

    I'm now getting about 1/3rd of the damage from ISM's under identical circumstances.

    The Fear effect was a non-issue in cutting ISM damage down, the main issue was the damn Assault Bot following up Incendiary Swarm Missiles with plain old normal Swarm Missiles, and knocking half the spawn out of their burn patches...

    Oh, and to the OP, this is the thread you're looking for, and as far as I'm aware ISM's are still running at about 1/3rd of the total damage output they used to.

    To me though, Robotics has a bigger problem which has had no dev response that I'm aware of - the piggin' moronic AI which is determined to run into melee regardless of range to target, current orders or anything else I've tried to get them under control. Why yes, it does annoy the hell out of me, why do you ask?
    Most MM sets have some sort of godaweful AI quirk about them, really with what the devs know about pet AI they really need to go back and redo all the MM pets from the ground up to avoid all this stuff, but they won't because the players would ***** for years about it.

    It really has to do with Spec Ops being really under par, their stuns/hold need to be stacked to mez bosses, but the AI is not smart enough to time them properly, the only control effect they can use at a decent interval is the single target immobilize, and their cloaking/sniper rifle combo does little in terms of adding damage.

    and really they do not feel very "spec ops" if you ask me.
  10. I learned that bringing in 8 Dopplegangers means you should probably bring freinds.
  11. I would like Mids, a nice recipie/Invention database....and an app that lets me connect to global chat servers while not in game.

    Please?

    .....I will marry war witch if she does it!

    That simple.
    People need to stop spreading the crap that the heals off the healer are what makes Romulus unkillable.

    Go Look at the Debuffs the power gives for half a second, 20% Damage debuff to your entire team, plus a tohit debuff on top of that, plus the Slows the summoned fluffs give.
  13. I was posting from my phone at the time. I knew it was maimed but didn't care to fight to fix it.

  19. this could be awesome...i hope i can mod my main to full planeswalker levels of awesome
  20. if this is meant to be a compliment to Dual Pistols, how about we toss in a boost range clone instead of blinding powder or sleep powder, i've toyed around with it and a Range boost helps out DP alot.

    It's so dumb how the AI keeps them at range when they're primarily a melee set
    But if they reduced the damage to properly* fix the guys people would ***** endlessly.


    * Note : When I say Fix properly, I mean remove freaking Dark Blast and Gloom and give them light versions of dark Regen and the PBAOE damage aura from Dark armor, and add -fly to the zombie spit..or ignore the whole flying enemies thing to begin with, that is what the Mind part of the Master Mind is ment to deal with.
  22. My admittedly Heavily Ioed out Radiation/Dark defender farms the Nightshroud mission, the enemies do not have mezzes unless in melee, and those are the NRG melee small chance to stun stuff, a Rad/Arch could probably do it pretty quickly with the damage boosts from the debuffs and AM.

They're probably even assigned to you by your Patron. They're probably not going to like you going over to Paragon City and being best buddies with Statesman.

    It would be a lot more logical to have new sets of Epic Powers for villains that have no pet at all, allowing them to have a fifth power more similar to their hero counterparts. Meanwhile, the heroes might be able to form an alliance with a Freedom Corps Patron and gain a Longbow agent they can summon to help in a fight. That way, each player gets to decide for himself if a pet power is useless or not.
    Meh, At the end of The destined one arc Recluse tells you to do whatever you want to do anyways...so *shrug* Rachnos is all about respect through curbstomping I don't see why they would care what you do after you stomped em.

    Edit : I do want to say, that the Corruptor and Defender pools would work so much better on their cross faction counterparts, a Defender needs the extra damage that the pet can dish out, and a Corruptor could abuse the snot out of a High Damage melee attack like total Focus or Thunder strike.
