AV Information

Hi,

Apologies that this thread isn't strictly Scrapper related, but I figured you lot would know

I am trying to find an AV that doesn't mez, and is the least resistant to negative energy damage, I don't really care what kind of damage the AV does though, but I don't know where to find that kind of information.

Can you help?

PS: The intention is to find out if an AV can be soloed by a Warshade. I would like to select an AV, run the numbers and then settle down for the inevitable long fight.

Thank you, I will head off and survey her resistances tonight

Yep. Bobcat isn't just unresistant to negative, she takes EXTRA damage from negative. So does Shadowhunter, but he has a bunch of mezzes.

I ran through the list I've got of AV resistances and came up with a list. I then went through all of their power entries on Paragonwiki to make sure that they didn't have mez effects. Some of them do, but they're not particularly reliable and/or not particularly devastating, so I included them with a note that they *can* mez (generally with an attack that has a chance to mez).

Archon Burkholder (chance to stun)
Vandal (multiple chance to stun)
Arbiter Sands (can immob and KB, upper level version has reliable holds and stuns)
Night Widow Nocturne
Silver Mantis (can immob, has unstoppable)
Wretch (chance to stun, has unstoppable)
Baphomet
Clockwork King
Psychic Clockwork King (can but only with Psychic Wail low hp attack)
Hopkins (multiple chance to stun)
Jurassik - not the GM - (weak to negative energy, chance to stun)
Terra (weak to negative energy)
Citadel (chance to stun, can knockback)
Synapse (chance to sleep and stun, can knockback)
Nemesis (chance to stun, can knockback)
Battle Maiden
Bobcat (weak to negative energy, can knockback, has unstoppable)
Diabolique (phases in and out, can knockback)
Foreshadow (chance to stun, can knockback, has elude)
Infernal (can knockback)
Dra'gon
Lord of War: Hro'Dtohz (multiple chance to stun)
Captain Castillo (can immob)
Colonel Durey (couldn't find a powers entry, presumably no mez effects beyond immob)
Ruladak the Strong (chance to stun)
Mary Macomber (weak to negative energy, can knockback)
Luminary (multiple chance to stun, can knockback)
Mynx (has Elude)
Valkyrie (has MoG, has Resurrect)

Depending on your strategy, you should be able to get around some of the AVs that have chances or even multiple chances to use mez effects by avoiding melee.

Thanks Umbral! Thats what I call excellent help!

If you do bobcat, I'd suggest you attempt to fight from range only which improves your survivabilty by a ton from her. Also, once she pops unstoppable, you've won.. it crashes eventually, and it's short work to finish her after the crash.
