Actually i really do think saying you surpass the dmg cap is accurate. Without FE your example attack is dmg capped at 750 but with FE its now capped at 1088. melee and Spines/fire DoT is already part of the attack in the first place. FE is something thats is now added and increases your dmg even if you are are the dmg cap, i.e. having you surpassing it.

I see, I read that awhile a go but couldnt remember who said it (could have been the king of wrong). So i wasn't sure...pretty sure i can trust YOU with that info though. Glad i finally know.

I find it quite hard to actually stay at the dmg cap 100% of the time even with stacked rage. Esepcially if you team and they dont feed you reds as veng only makes up about about 1 small red while you loose a ton of insps. But it is possible claws could pull ahead at higher levels of +dmg.

Oh, i actually forgot about that too haha.

I generally run 5 missions (one arc) counting everything but load times. And yes use insp, but that time you go and load un on t3s should be counted as time you spent farming for that reason i only use what is dropped. Just like how i see people often go over and buy reds at the vendor before a mission, that should be counted. Everything but load times, which the player has no control over, is counted including time outside of the map.

You dont count your load times...it's really quite simple but requires a bit more work on the part of the player. I generally have just as long to load, i remember getting numbers for PLing someone to 50, i spent 27 minutes alone just in load times i believe.

It is a metric to gauge kill speed but on its own i just don’t believe it's accurate enough to gauge actual efficiency when it comes to farming, i.e. making money.
I guess it's not that i don’t like that people are using inf/min it’s just that that’s ALL they are posting, generally the settings is all that’s included. There is stuff like tix/min, kill/min (how many bosses, minions, and LTs but i dont know if hero stats gives that), damage for each power, how many times you used each power. And let’s not forget you rarely see someone give averages from a large number of missions.

Edit: and insp used as well should be included

I had thought it was determined that SS was better than claws for a couple of reason
Follow up is single target
Spin has a slightly higher ATT than foot stomp
It's easy to finish before a rage crash.

....redraw? i had heard it actually does slow you down, yet i have also heard it *doesnt* slow you down.
Billz, you better get some numbers. :P
I personally think they are really really close, i just like the SMASH rather than SLASH


You dont hear about SS/SD a lot, i think, because the extra +dmg SS gives goes largely unused for SC (this is the reason i dont play mine, not a fan of always being over the cap for SC). SC was also recently...ish nerfed. Don't get me wrong though SS/SD is the ****, very good middle ground for dmg/toughness. And i think it can likely do better than FA for a lot of content, for a lot cheaper too. It's just less AoE and its more balanced in it's dmg mit, so you arent nearly unkillable against 1 dmg type without any IOs.
I personally dont like that you have to always have the dang shield out.

Not true, you actually HAVE to hit about 50% of them because of streakbreaker

Like i said, watered down versions of the original.

I guess i can kind of understand... think 24 people with lowbow nulllies (or even 8 for that matter).

You dont carry concrete with you? I know i do, last thing you want to be be stuck with is a wood floor to rip stuff out of.

On a pure farming build, yes. It's ALWAYS +rech, +rech, +rech, +rech. Period, no exceptions. (rather than two sets of aegis you can get an extra 5% +rech in a imp skin set, for example)

It will only take 4 small purples to keep one at the soft cap if you have literally no def, and its likely you will have at least some. Keeping that up is easy enough to do when solo (brutes only need about 37% def to be unkillable in a farm for the most part so they only need 3). For teaming and when your insp drop rate is lower it can be pretty tough to ALWAYS have enough purples up, so you get veng.
It pretty much boils down to this, insp can get you def...they can't get you +rech.

That is correct. Hits dont show up only the misses. Need to use tohit and dmg taken for that.

Well, its highly likely that is doesnt have anywhere near as many powers as its RV heavy counterpart. I know for a fact the nulli dont have...whatever that -res power they have is. Seems most Lore pets are watered down versions of the original. *sigh*

I actually kind of like it, nice and compact.

If remember right in apex clocks do 10.5

Pretty much, some suprised me though. Like the robot drones, which i thought would be like bot MM things, are just like device drones or the vet powers. And the light things are like croatoa wisps rather than PB light form.
