Snakebit

I read this and I think "What problem"? If I have a concept for a melee toon that I will inevitably be playing solo at some point now I don't have to chose between a Brute and a Scrapper. I can now throw Tanks into the mix. That isn't on option with the Live version.

Has anyone Solo'd the Market Crash? I was talking with a friend tonight about duo'ing the TF and can't make up my mind if I should suggest 2 solo capable scrappers or a brute and a support. It'll come down to budget I guess, I've got 120m to spend but probably don't have a toon that would be a lot of help in an AV fight, except maybe an Ice/Rad corruptor, but the adds... Traps seems iffy because of the AoE. Anyway, what's your thoughts?

I've crafted and sold about 25 of them in the last 2 days, I post at the average of the last 5 -10%. I do that on every IO I sell. I've decided to forgo recipes and just buy IO's. I have kept bids on a few that I can reliably buy at less than 300k, and to my surprise they flow in at a pretty decent clip. I feel like if I use merit converters then I can afford to use 9, if I used AH converters I can use 6. I went from 20m in seed money for a newly PL'd fire farmer to 170m in two days. I took a break from converter roulette and did about 9 Super Packs along the way. I kinda like them. The return is worth it. I do still craft, but not nearly as much. Recipes I want to keep and defense/health recipes that I can convert. The defense/health recipes I'm not willing to pay enough for to get a lot of.

I thought it was WAI, but yeah you can't convert that IO in type.

I'm not 8. You can better believe I'd report a Nazi themed character making racial slurs. If that toon wasn't generic'd within a reasonable time frame I'd not hesitate to make some public noise about it. If there were no adjustment made, I'd drop this or any game environment in a heartbeat and I'd put it out there as a place that promotes racism and white supremacy. Because it isn't ok. And frankly, it bothers me that there are people who would tolerate that. Fortunately, the OP doesn't appear to be a person to behave in that manner so it's a bit off topic and I'll leave it at that.

Here's the relevant snip: What I believe is being said here is that you may not create a player character signature character. You may use them in a backstory of a player character. You may not play Ms Liberty, but you can say that you are her BFF. You may use those signature characters in the AE as you please.

It isn't. Scrapper Crit ATO is only good for 3.5 seconds and the animation of the attack must finish inside that duration, so long duration powers like Spine Burst or Thunder Strike are kinda hosed. It's awesome for builds with 2 damage aura's/really fast animating attacks. Not so much for the big hitters. Stalkers also get the Build up proc, which refreshes the recharge on the Build Up power. It triggers globally, meaning it will fire from any attack, not just the attack it's slotted to. I have seen it fire 3 times in a row. I can with my BS stalker from time to time run for 30-40 seconds under the Build Up buff with a couple of procs from Gaussian You figure careful management of AS hide proc and placate for crit on demand, coupled with the team +crit bonus and you will leave a BS scrapper in the dust for damage output. Way way behind. The hardest part is efficient target switching so you don't overdamage with the T8/9. Additionally, the stealth proc fires more often than the scrapper crit proc. The scrapper crit proc is only good for 3.5 seconds, and the animation of the attack has to complete before the timer ends. Building and slotting a stalker to outdamage a scrapper with the same attack set is trivially easy. It's just expensive. That said there are OFC scrapper builds that will run neck in neck with a stalker builds, and I can't imagine solo farming +4/8 on a stalker but I'm sure there are people who do. Probably not as quickly as say spine/bio, but it would be doable. I haven't tried a Elec/SD stalker but since Chain Induction, LR and SC don't crit the scrapper version has to be better.

Not sure what fleek means, but if you mean dab as in "nail and torch" I am in.

Stalkers are the bee's knees. They got it right. I wish there were more Stalker oriented content, where stealth matters more than fighting but I get why there isn't.

@brigg2? Just sayin...

Not a roleplayer but the thread caught my attention so I'm posting a reply: You should go with a John Banner/Sgt Schultz type of buffoon. Teaming with someone that is spoofing Nazis would be a hell of a lot more palatable than your OP.

Personally I want a weapon that is invisible until you get aggro'd by something. Then it animates grabbing and swinging that something. Kill skuls with skuls. I'll settle for a scythe, because a Carl Childers toon running around with bags of warsh and eating biscuits and mustard would be freaking epic.

The game is driven by math. The math works. I cant get behind a suggestion to break what works because of feelings. There are in-game solutions to your issue. You have been given multiple resolutions, but you insist on changing everything else to accommodate what you want. /jranger

You aren't constantly missing though. You're under the effects of selection bias caused in part by higher accuracy on high level toons kicking the streakbreaker into action. Your miss limit at level 10 on +2 mobs is 3. Your miss limit with over .9 acc is 1.

Wut???

It's already improved. Without any buffs or bonuses, you have a 63% chance to hit a +2 mob at level 10. A level 50 toon only has a 56% chance to hit a +2. If that's not good enough for you get IOs.

There's 2 versions of the premium sprint (ninja/beast run) which are serviceable and there's 3 varieties of the prestige flight (Flying Carpet, Rocket Board, Void Skiff). The prestige flight can't be used for combat but it is pretty fast. You also have to retoggle after using it, but it's worth it if you don't want to burn a power on a travel.

I could get behind optional client side range and radius indicators if they were subtle. Maybe a toggle that overlaid your UI with low opacity range rings. Yeah, I could see that. I'd bet on it would being an ironclad bitch to implement though.

The source for that is from a GM post in these forums. What was posted paints a picture of the change being impossible without the resources of a full studio. It's either 17 for everyone or nothing. I did spend a few minutes searching but I don't have the link.

Synaptic Overload (Electric Control) Spirit Tree (Plant Control) Rise of the Phoenix (Fiery Aura)

I'm pretty excited for the changes myself. I was inserting some snark into the hyperbole.

1) Right click enhancer> send to tray x 2) /trayswap x y (swaps the contents of tray x with the contents of tray y) 3) click+drag to select more than 1 enhancer to right click (this would be nice for salvage and recipes too!)

Helpful and informative.

Chain Induction and Spring Attack. Savage Leap.

What an amazing person you are.
