Heatstroke

I started to go Dark and for some reason I chose Storm...

New Update.. The Shield/Savage Melee is AWESOME. Its just fun.. with Spring Attack nicely proc'd he has three Teleporting AoE attacks.. just fun hopping around mob to mob.

Functioning in my self proclaimed role of the champion defender of the Sentinel AT.. Vulnerability is perfectly fine. Vulnerability is Auto-Hit and ignores level differences. Vulnerability debuffs the following: Damage Resistance Defense Mez Resistance Stealth Resistance to Endurance, Endurance Discount, Recovery, Regeneration, ToHit, and Recharge Very few things in the game Debuff as much as it does.. as many things as it does.. To one target and it is AUTO HIT.. It works.. PERIOD.. Is the Tank chided because it doesnt do as much damage as the brute or scrapper. Is the Brute chided because it doesn to as much AoE damage as the tank? Is the Stalker chided because it isnt as tough as any of the other ATs and its main focus is single target damage in most cases? Are Defenders who dont heal looked down on ? Here is the reality the viability of an AT IMO is really about two things.. The Player.. and the specific build, how functional you are is dependent on power choices and your build. For Example off the top of my head. My Fire/Rad Sentinel Single target attacks- Flares, Fire Blast, Blaze, Blazing Bolt. AoE attacks- FireBall, Fire Sword Circle, FireCages/Rain Of Fire Combo (I always use them together), Inferno, Ground Zero ( heavily Proc'd). Pyronic from Incarnate. SO I can do a little bit of everything, Im not limited in my ability at all. And because I have more than One AoE, I can cycle them and always have something ready to use. And as said by @ Exqzr984 on another post A dedicated, skilled Sentinel player knows the value they bring to any fight and this value does not need to be confirmed by anyone else. We know we are often last one standing. We know we can do 90 to 95% percent as much damage as anyone else while at the same time sharing aggro as an off tank, all the while peeling or controlling as needed. My wife, also a Sentinel player (not for lack of trying other ATs) put is best. Who defends the Defenders - Sentinels. Who Plugs the holes the Tank/Brutes miss? - Sentinels. Who chases down the runners - Sentinels? Who holds the line when all else fails? - Sentinels.

just saying that doesnt fit every characer concept. It would be nice to have another option. Thank You.

It would be great if you could post your build. Most End issues I have seen on builds is usually from horrific slotting. IOs do go a LONG way in end managerment, I would definitely suggest starting to look at how to make IO based builds because it will help. Here is my guide to End Management and Stamina.. Its what people have taught me and what I have learned over the years.

Yes I was on another toon but it was me.

ooooh you know what.. I think I am on performance mode.. But still when I tried chaning the power at a trainer.. it wouldnt even set.. when leaving the trainer it would reset itself back to the original and didnt even consume the tailor token.

Reported this in game and then was told to report it here. Excelsion (sp) Force Field Option not working Windows: Playing on a Bots/FF Mastermind. Tried to change to the new look for force field in PI at Incandescent. While I can chose the option it does not take. Used Free Tailer token. Didnt work. when I exited shield was normal and when I went back to her it didnt show me that the new choice was selected. Also tried this on a blaster with the FF mastery. Also didnt work. So then I tried going to the tailer in Steel Canyon. I can make the choice and it shows I made the choice when leaving, but the graphics dont change at all. It just looks like I picked a regular force field bubble that I can change colors on.. It doesnt look like the Excelsion bubble at all.

what kinds of issues are you having? Mine seems to be working fine.. obviously there isnt a page 2 full updates yet.

Couple of things 1) With all the changes to so many powersets, Some even getting the ability to slot different enhancements, or having new power options.. why were Freespecs not handed out? 2)The new customization option in Force Field doesnt seem to be working. I selected it.. paid a token and it was exactly the same look when leavling the Costume customization.

are we getting a free respec?

Thank you for that clarity. I thought they had ALL been changed.

Admittedly when I made that post Arsenal Control and Assault didnt exist.

I notice that Foot Stomp from Super Strength is not on this list....

Thanks this is very helpful. Then I wont add it to my Plant Controller, but will probably spec into Flash Freeze with my Ice Controller.

Are these new Deep Sleep Powers now worth respecing into? I have an Ice and Plant Controller that never took the sleep powers because it was kind of pointless. My Elec Control characers makes better use of that sets sleep. Are these new sleeps changes like that one ??

bumpity... updated recently

I have a WP/SS 1) End Management is not an issue with WP as you can use both Quick Recovery and Stamina, so this helps you when Rage crashes and drains some end 2) WP is less effected by the -20% Defense Debuff when Rage crashes. 3) Its a build that doesnt need Hasten.

PLEASE !!!! and while your at it. take a look at Meltdowns long animation time as well. VERY long for what it does now. Should be much faster like a build up..

Aka Nemesis Plot

I'm concerned that none of the Devs have commented on how hard this hits SS, which without rage running full time is a woefully underperforming set, and limited in its AoE.. This tanker change hits that set really hard IMO

How is this done.

There was a small Beta update today but no notes on the forums?

Im highly upset about it considering I have Three SS tanks.. but also realize that they simply are not going to do anything about it.

Again pushing for TWO mutually exclusive versions of this power like you have alternates for others, Some of us like Power Surge the way it is and have build characters around it. dont force those people to make a change they dont want to make.. Keep the newer power.. Rename it.. for those that want that version.
