Yes, when I see people asking for specific ATs or roles in LFG, the first thing I think of is the rise of fascism in the early 20th century. I thought I was the only one. First they came for the Warshades, I said nothing because I'm not a warshade

Last night I created an StJ/Elec hero Brute named The "Universe's Long Arc" a play on electrical arcs and “Let us realize the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” by Dr. Martin Luther King

unrelated but is there any lore ama around mot especially how diabolique came to control him or even about the trial itself? I noticed it had a "berserk eclipse" feel especially once inside mot. Click the link, and do a CTRL-F and you can search around...it's very well indexed... Thank you.

You have piqued my interest, last I checked PPMs went off modified recharge which does not distinguish between slotted or global recharge but if you know better please do share. PPMs use only the recharge in the power (from enhancing and Alpha incarnates), it does not use the recharge provided from outside buffs, such as set IO bonuses, Hasten, buffs by teammates (e.g. Chronoshifts Shift), etc. As a rule of thumb, if you want to know what MRT the PPM is using, right click on the power, look at the info, and see what it says for recharge time. That is the MRT used Thanks.

isn't the dmg crash extremely significant? I never was a Rager but I seem to remember the crash negating a significant amount of dmg on those in the "crash" state.

On the Lore AMA the following questions covered Kallisti Wharf. 347, 385, 397 https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Lore_AMA/Sorted unrelated but is there any lore ama around mot especially how diabolique came to control him or even about the trial itself? I noticed it had a "berserk eclipse" feel especially once inside mot.

Isn't there still a huge -dmg penalty when it crashes?

I really wish the original score team had allowed the character Data to escape into the wild before contact with NCsoft occurred.

Not unless you're confused

This was not an issue when you couldn't cross over. Also let us know forget that the original devs intent was that masterminds were the tankers of COV. Not brutes. Granted the original devs dropped the ball on that one, the pets do not even give some form of aggro control. Which is something I wouldn't mind discussing in another thread, adding aggro and threat mechanics to mastermind pets to turn them into the villain tanks. This was only shared with the player base after Bodyguard mode was introduced making that statement about the original intent for MMs to rather dubious imo

Disagree While the demand for garbage SHO's will increase & cause an increase in price it won't turn the least wanted SHOs that people are disappointed to get from LSRTF/MLTF & sellers can't sell for much into 40 million dollar windfalls, prices will normalize across the board.

SS should indeed do more damage for scrappers than it does for brutes, for the same reason every other set should. The issue is that in a straight port, it not only would do more damage than an SS brute, it would do more damage than most or all other scrapper sets, because of the differences in damage buff scaling. You know, it shouldn't be too hard to mock up a DPS spreadsheet entry for scrapper SS, right? Then at least we'd have some concrete numbers to work with. that would only be during rage, which now comes with an unavoidable crash

I really need to get around to building a base. I resisted for a long time, but my son totally begged me to let him build one, and now I would never go back *Teleporters to most zones, Blue, Red, and Gold...Great for running missions *NPC Trainers for leveling, Quartermaster as a universal store, ICON employee, Nurse for Inspy's *Salvage Racks, Enhancement tables for my low level toons, and Inspy Storage (I put the large ones in there and now that it's full, I can always go back get a large inspy for a tough mission, instead of paying 50K+ for them *Crafting tables (which are conviently next to my salvage racks)...don't have to run to the few University's that there are *Medbay as an alternative to the Hospital, and more importantly to evade Prisons on CoT or Council Missions. Nice

I have gotten 2 or 3 purple drops on my all T3 & T4 Time/Sonic def i don't feel like the drop rate is worse than live.

It's easier to add significant defense to a resistance build then it is to add resistance to a defense build, so most of the time people would recommend going for a resistance build.

One of the few toons from live that I have recreated in homecoming with exact powersets & AT is a DB/Fire Brute so I'm definitely a fan, that said Claws & it's animations have never really interested me, that said a ranged ability in DB would be nice & fit the concepts I play the set for.

Unslotters work, but it's wasteful for just moving enhancements around, which is purely visual This.

I feel confident saying that this would also piss off KBers, and I'm speaking as a person that took an AoE immob to stop my own knockback 90% of the time. I thought of it as a compromise that will leave no one side happy 100% of the time.

This is also a problem, that should be fixed.

While you make some points worthy of consideration the bolded part isn't a bad thing.

As a melee & aoe aficionado I absolutely despise dealing with KBers in pugs I don't complain I just leave after the mission is complete, obviously that doesn't work for TFs sigh. Rather than a blanket solution that pisses off KBers, the KB vs KU/KD issue should be in the hands of team leaders.

IIRC Traps/Poison Trap deals unresistable -Regen making it imo the best Buff/Debuff set for soloing AVs & GMs.

2 defenders sharing sonic blast for massive -res potential but i actually recommend having 1 have Time as a primary & the other having a resistance set that way you'll both have high def & resistance.
