I'm a basic b*tch and voted based on how hard or annoying I felt the individual groups were. Circle as my favorite to fight because I didn't find the update to be too jarring, and I like some of the new visuals and powers being used (I sort of laugh evilly when storm blast is used on my characters). Their biggest annoyance is still what it was before the updates... before they even went incarnate: the darned -ToHit auras. Tsoo as my least favorite cause getting your recharge, movement, and endurance floored by 4 different blue pants dudes sucks. They're a lot beefier than Sappers and show up ealier, too. Oh amd teleporting sorcerers with -ToHit auras. And the 47 different types of bosses they have in the middle levels that make it impossible to track what powers they're gonna have. So yeah. Simple stuff. Points to nuNemesis for integrated counterplay mechanics and Blackwing for looking stylish (and immediately making their stuff available to players).

Bit of a long shot but try: SonicManipulation_DoT

I love quirky builds like this, should be fun. Only two things I'd note looking at it: 1) End Use/Recovery delta seems slim to me with all those proc slotted attacks. Without Ageless Core constantly up, it could run itself dry pretty fast. 2) One of your Downsides is neatly reduced by one of your Features: if you hit flying enemies with web grenade, it should ground them.

I delete characters because unless I really, really love them and have sentimental attachments, it depresses me to see my characters go unplayed. Their costume goes to the save file. Their IOs go to the base storage. Their one-word noun/adjective name goes back to the name pool. And harmony is restored.

I'm not sure if Alt F4 is a default bind for the game. I've had mine set this way for so long I've honestly forgotten. Type this in and it will rebind so you can quit to desktop like you selected the option from the menu: /bind alt+f4 "quit"

You basically described my Pain/Dark Def. Just the AoE heal and the Aura. That's enough healing. The rest is blasts, buffs, and debuffs. Doesn't sound Bizarre to me at all. Seems like a good character build.

Not sure if this is a bug, but it's strangely inconsistent. None of the other vanity pets require the player to be fully grounded to summon. Even close enough to the ground that I could execute Foot Stomp, I still couldn't summon a Mini Nemesis pet. I had to toggle fly all the way off to do so. The only other pets I could see that had the same requirement are the START vendor combat buff pets (fairies, drones, wisps). With the pet out, I didn't see any hidden buffs being applied in Combat Attributes, so I'm assuming it's not intended to be behaving the same way.

<.< >.> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I was actually looking forward to UM so make arbitrary number go up more faster....

Making the first one a global proc would bring it up to par IMO. Scraps and Stalkers each get a global "proc" to boost damage so there's certainly precedent for this change. And no tweaking the rage value lower, either. The sets are mildy bad. This is not a load balance; they need help.

Which is ironic since the adjustments to the rage crash are the exact same proposed 6 years ago. The big variation being instead of avoiding the crash when not stacking Rage they gave a toggle instead. And now it's being pretty well received it seems. Which is funny (to only me, I'm sure) because having a single stack of crashless rage would be better than UM is, and we could have had it 6 years ago.

Really digging this art of my tanker Glyphica done by elliezeekaye! They originally were open for half-body comms, but when I sent in references for the character, they offered to do a full-body artwork. Made me feel pretty special, and it came out great!

That's what I was afraid of, ok. Thanks for the quick answer.

Misunderstanding. I'm asking how do we accurately see that +70% crit chance out of Stealth can drop to +40% once into combat, as stated.

Got it, thanks. How are you guys able to capture this with in game numbers? I didn't see a place in Combat Attributed that reflected crit chance. Also that 40% feels like it's working hard. Certainly one of those times where the XCom effect is happening in reverse.

I don't know if I'm not understanding what you're saying here, but I was seeing a lot of crits throughout combat...

Apologies if this was asked and answered earlier, I'm late to the party and 13 pages wailing and gnashing of teeth is a lot to parse through. Does the +30% crit chance on Shinobi for Sents stack additively with the new inherent crit chance? If Sents hold their load, on a /Ninja build, can they effectively sit at 70% crit chance in battle?

The lighting on your character here is really good! How did you achieve that great foreground lighting without cranking up the gamma and washing out the background? With the reflection on her costume it almost looks like you have a ring light behind your perspective.

"Don't Attune me, bro!"

I didn't know this! Thank you. I'm now off to make "Tiny Guy Samurai" who will weild a comparatively huge legacy katana.

Luigrein provides a great synopsis here. I don't fully agree with every point but they put the work in, so I won't nitpick. For Rad Armor, they have it right. I don't really know if Rad Armor has cons, which is why it's regarded as one of the strongest sets. I believe it has a Cold hole which is generally negligible. They didn't include Regen and Psy Armor. Both sets are new on Tanker and both work very, very well when built properly. Regen is very sturdy and doesn't require the same level of reactivity/proactivity the older version did. Possibly the only set with a toggle that builds on stacks of attacks taken rather than enemies in proximity, which reduces ranged enemy effectiveness. Psy Armor is a unique beast, offering a hybrid Def/Res/CC/absorb shield approach to offset incoming damage while having an ability that boosts Regen/Endurance based on nearby enemies. Similar in clicks to Bio or Radiation.

Do you mean items to click and get a popup? I think a few I've found on a solo run myself. Nothing that I personally felt warranted a whole character roll and level to max just to solo it for the clicks. If you mean something similar to the Hero 1 or Rikti Kong fights, yes. But you'll need to run it at 4 Star with a Master Of badge already earned.

There's an entire category of enhancements that boost knockback strength.

I did this without having a costume on. Can confirm it works that way currently.

I honestly thought the HC team had used AI to write his dialog at first because of the seemingly haphazard use of accented letter Es all over the place and the variety of random italicization. Folks, what kind of accent do we think the author was going for, here? He also has a tendency for verbosity that doesn't help him come off as uh... endearingly nerdy. Brevity, Soul, Wit. Some guy who wrote things said once.

So all of these except Worth Opponent used to be run on Everlasting, when the Everlasting Taskforce leadership bench was a bit bigger. I think if you swapped to Everlasting and put in a request, you could probably get these all knocked out in a week. I'm not around enough during US prime time to know just how frequently the stuff you're asking comes up regularly, but Altair and Lionors who run a lot of the content now seem like good folks and I wouldn't be surprised if they ran an MoKeyes and MoTinPex for you. I see RHW pretty frequently on US Saturdays. Not every weekend, but enough to know it's still being run. Worth Opponent.. a little bit tricky but if you advertise in Everlasting TFs global channel on an early Saturday afternoon, I'm confident you'll have takers. Some people will want the badge. Some people will just want to help. Most of the people in that channel know each other and have been doing content together for years.
