  1. Here's some suggestions:
  2. Here's a slightly different build with some suggestions.
  3. I apparently have to continuously say this... If you are not slotting up, 😁KICK😁 >>>> 🤬Boxing🤬!
  4. Not Shulkie-related, but apparently Marvel's X-Men debut is going to be titled "The Mutants", because "X-Men" is "outdated". Fires expectations into the Sarlacc Pit...
  5. Bingo. If you're barely getting hit, what do you need to heal?
  6. Basically your default Defense with Invincibility set to 1 enemy is WAY too low. Sure, with full saturation you're okay. But anything going for ENFC damage is going to PASTE you. Again, if you're taking nothing in Boxing TAKE KICK AND PUT A FORCED FEEDBACK PROC IN IT! Here's a rework of your build. Starts out normal-soft-capped with one enemy in range. Saturated, of your typed Defenses, only Psi is low. Everything else is 60% Defense or better. Also, using Diagmagnetic, you're applying a ToHit debuff with every hit.
  7. Avalanche, I've never really found a problem. Mainly because it's low level KD, rather than KB. And yes, there's SOME value. HOWEVER, Invincibility is going to provide most of that. Fully saturated on the build I showed you, you're above 60% on SLENFC. EN Resist: If you're above soft-cap and you're in the 60-70% range, you're essentially immortal to all but a few pieces of content in the game. An extra 5-10% doesn't make that huge of a difference. Unstoppable being the only place to stick Gladiator's Armor +Def. Uh. No. You stick it in the first available Defense power. In this case, Invincibility. LBE vs Hurl: Cosmetics. That's all you gotta say. And yes, most of my builds are built with an eye towards enhancement value, rather than gimmicks.
  8. Also note: Compared to my build, you're expending 41% more Endurance to do 5% more damage. Also, as noted: Procs aren't affected by Rage crashes. And if it doesn't proc much, I'm okay with that. I tend to build for "dependable" output, not trying to "gimmick" things via proc builds. Because, simply, trying to figure optimal damage output with procs makes my poor, empty widdle head hurt.
  9. I'm reading. Note. Looks okay. You're over-slotted on your Defenses. Note: You had Invincibility set to ZERO ENEMIES in range. Here it is with ONE. Converting back to dual LOTG (Global and Def) brings E/N back down to 44.47 and S/L/F/C all remain above 50. Let's just say I'm *NOT* a big fan of Hand Clap. And I'm even less of a big fan of Stun sets. Your crowd controls are more or less complete without EITHER. Toss in the fact that you're doing NO damage... Nor are you even accomplishing any sort of potential self-buff (like the Force Feedback proc). As such, it seems like a waste. Also, your power pick order is all over the place.. I have a preference for a somewhat natural progression in power order. Also, things like Jetpacks avoid essentially wasted power picks. At the level of performance you are operating at, UNSTOPPABLE IS AN UTTER WASTE OF A POWER PICK. It's simply a 2 minute suicide button. As is Boxing. If you're not looking to go fully-improved cross-punch, you're simply better off taking Kick (technically you're almost universally better off taking Kick) and slotting a FF proc in it. Note: The small amount of Recovery gained from the double-slot of PP is just that. Small. Suggest tossing in the Regenerative Tissue Proc or the Power Transfer Proc. Paybe a Preventative Medicine +Absorb. Any or all of them are useful. Here's a rework that might be more to your liking. And I know people hate how slow Hurl is. But for 50% more damage, I'd sacrifice my own mother. (Kidding...sorta...) 😁
  10. I don't know if anything can "be done" about it. Generally it's cave-style maps that have this problem. And trying to tweak these maps or fiddle the game engine to stop this is basically opening up a big slopping bucket of crazy for the devs. So we're left with a couple options. 1: Don't use KB. 2: Keep someone around with TP other, or equivalent powers. 3: Use AoE powers to cook embedded enemies. 4: Get a GM.
  11. L&T suffers from "BIGGER! BETTER! MORE MORE MORE!"
  12. Don't get me wrong. Yes, I have problems with the latest film. But the basic "conceit" of the films is something I agree with. The first film is the full and "alien" majesty of Asgard in its prime. Where Thor is woefully unprepared to deal with Earth/Midgard and the initial growth from being a child. The second film shows his further alienation from his home culture and his assimilation of Earth culture. Plus the traumas involved when his home is threatened. The third film is kinda the "Rebelious teenager" entry in the franchise. It's not that Thor's being rebellious. It's that he's taking on more responsibilities with his own people, while still assimilating Earth culture. And the Immigrant Song is the initial melding of his life as a god and his life on earth as a whole. Infinity War MAJORLY FUBAR's Thor's growth. Sending him off looking for himself after the end of the two films. In L&T, he's managed to find a new balance in his life. Yeah. Unstable and a bit crazy. But whose life ISN'T? And the story of the loss of love and his acceptance of a different path for his life kinda ties it all back. 1: Operatic->Cinematic 2: Cinematic 3: Cinematic->Rock 4: Rock
  13. https://www.thermal-grizzly.com/produkte/522-cpu-contact-frame-for-12th-gen-intel-by-der8auer Long and short, the Intel CPU retention mechanism for 12th gen SUCKS. Using it results in excessive flex of the CPU, and leads to improper contact between a CPU cooler and a 12th gen CPU. Thermal Grizzly has come up with a replacement for the lever action frame that eliminates most CPU flex.
  14. Who built the laptop? I know Dell has SmartBytes. A content download manager so broken that it actually qualifies as malware.... If you've got that installed, open up the services manager, and disable it. Then reboot.
  15. Also! Why didn't Hyperstrike take the self-rez? Mainly because you're pseudo-tanking. So if you die, 90% of the time, they're going to park ON YOUR HEAD and proceed to teabag you until you go to your base or the Hospital. It's annoying. I've had enemies run halfway across a map to death blow me, then just...SIT THERE. Meaning any self-rez or even a rez inspie... or one of the P2W self-rezzes. The second you stand up, they start chopping you down... A-FARGIN-NOYING!
  16. Pimpin' ain't easy! (Or cheap!) But yeah. It's essentially an exercise in stacking bonuses. And some of them, early on, do a LOT more than you'd think they would. "Wait! I shoulda died there. I'm just huffing. What'd I do "wrong"?" 😁 And you should wind up pretty Beast Mode in the end...
  17. I honestly couldn't give you a good assessment. I have a long-term sub to PureVPN. Works fine for what I use it for. https://www.purevpn.com/order $10.95 month to month. Yearly for $3.24/month 24 (+3 free) months for $1.99/month They also have a $0.99 1 week trial. Basically found I can drop into any of their nodes, pretty much any place on the planet, and it's fine. This kinda thing also DOES protect you when you're on the road, using shared wifi in hotels. Others can't see what you're doing. Downsides: Run out of Pakistan.
  18. This is my thought as well. One possibility here: Are you just going straight through the wifi? Or are you using a VPN? If you're going straight through the wifi, yes, a super-strict policy. Note: A lot of hotel wifi is somewhat locked down since they're extremely SHARED bandwidth and games can be VERY "noisy" on the network. Suggestion: Try a VPN client to mask your traffic, and see if the game will route out the VPN instead.
  19. Not getting any bites elsewhere... So I may have another one of these (a FTW2) available here after the 20th.
  20. https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=04G-P4-1357-KR On the cheap end. $200 for an EVGA GTX 1650.
  21. Basically NVIDIA is trying to clear the market of cards BEFORE ther 4000-series cards hit.
  22. Here's one that's arranged more or less in leveling order.

    Too strong

    Personally, I love walking into a fight and spending most of my time shaking hands with the villain's FACE. The cherry on the top is having someone who isn't acquainted with EXACTLY how insane Tanker builds can be, looking at you afterwards going "How the *PANCAKE!* did you do THAT?" Hence, my signature...
  24. Hyperstrike

    Too strong

    When you can essentially fight (not necessarily BEAT) an enemy indefinitely. Because REAL Tanks have no problem taking 3 WEEKS to sand off an opponent's hit points. And flat out "can't kill one another" scenarios can be seen as a "moral victory" for the Tanker. 🤣😂 🤣😂 🤣😂
  25. There's nothing wrong with doing +0. Not everyone is equipped for high level slog. Not everyone wants to. And yes, a portion of the player base do it for "mercenary" reasons (XP, Merits, etc). Don't like that? Simply run your own TFs. Afraid of a level bug? Pimpin' ain't easy!
