  1. It's been a while since I've logged in, more than a year.

    I remember there being some dispute about streaming.  If I remember correctly, the devs didn't want the attention.

    I totally get that.

    I have no complaints about that.

    I just wondered, in the intervening time since I logged on last, has streaming become acceptable yet?  

  2. So when I hit 50 for the first time this week, what should I do first?

    I've not done any of the task forces, i wanted to save them for late game merits and incarnate stuff(I think?)

     

    What are my priorities as a newly minted lvl 50?

  3. I don't know if I'm making this up, or if it's a real memory from when I played in live.  

     

    I thought there was a way to manipulate your characters level so that you could run low level content with your level nerfed to the proper level.

     

    Is this possible or am I making it up?

  4. Can we get the CoT a

    Lighting Budget?

     

    I've had to log out of the same mission 3 times because I cant find the exit in the black void that is CoT tunnels.  

     

    I'd be fine if I had a flashlight.

    bear in mind that depending when you left live, you may or may not be familiar with the pvp diminishing returns mechanic, which regen is effected by.

     

    however, max health is not affected by DR and your regen is based on your max hp, so regardless of your choice, getting as much hp as possible will get you more regen than stacking loads of regen bonuses. 

     

     

    if you wanted to tryhard, i would say go dark, you also get life drain which would synergise well with the concept

    I was thinking Dark as well because it will make them miss me.  Every time they miss me is a tick of regen of a ton of HP.

    /regen is the king of sentinel 1v1 builds, against non-spike damage you are ridiculously tanky. /bio can work too with the same idea of just having loads of heals, while also have utility like end drain resist and so on. other secondaries can work, just avoid all the defence based armours, sentinels get the same dr curves as the squishies and so defence is just pretty nonviable. ive been theorycrafting a /fire build for a while but ive never been able to make it work 😞

     

    I'm working on a Willpower Tank right now, a weird labor of love ive been trying to complete since Live.

    I have been stacking every possible, available +regen boost from IO sets, regen at the cost of all things.

    The tank I did this with in Live was pretty obnoxious in the arena, very hard to kill, long fights.

    I think I want to do something similar with a sentinel.

    If I were going to do this with full passive regeneration in mind I'd go Willpower again, my attack would have to be rad, being able to 2 slot analyze weakness for 10% regen in every attack is nice.

    But if I were to ease off a little and just pick the best attack power for PvP, I'm not sure which way I'd go.   I like the idea of Dark because, as a total passive regen build, making my enemies miss gives me more ticks between hits.

     

    So it's really between rad and dark.  

    Make me harder to hit or make them easier to hit, tough call. 

  7. The Numinas Convalescence IO set,

     

    One enhancement says it gives a regen/refresh boost for 120 seconds.

    Is that only if its slotted into a trigger power, like an attack, or will it still go off if I slot it into an auto power like "Health"

     

    Will it trigger regularly if I put it into a toggle?

    Keep us posted. I'm curious as to whether or not it's ppssible.

    My original super regen was a SS/Wpr back in live.

    I was 1 Numinas set away from completing the build when the world died. I can't remember the regen amount any more, but I know it was enough to piss off the arena.

     

    When I got back I did some numbers and think I can squeeze a bit more regen with Rad Melee than SS, plus it fills the damage aura hole that Wpr has.  This is now my pure regen project, just wanna see what the highest HP per second regen can be, passive, no powers active.

     

    If I did Rad/Drk, that would give 2 damage auras, a boatload of resistance, and I could slot it out for a few hundred % regen so that I'd never have to be healed.  I think this will be my next project.  

  9. Yeah, I wasn't looking for any defense, this guy will be pure soak.  Resist/Regen combo for immortality.

    My Rad/Wpr it the Pure regen, minimal Defense Minimal resistance, ridiculous regen experimental thing.

     

    But for realistic Team Play I wanted to go more resist focused while still building a couple hundred % regen on IOs.

    Dark could work well with that kind of slotting for mitigating the cost of Oppressive Gloom.

     "Though most would say regeneration isn't the best form of mitigation given its reactive nature (it doesn't reduce incoming damage like Resistance, leaving you open to being one-shot, and it doesn't reduce the chance of being hit like Defense - so it doesn't kick in until after you're hit)."

     

    I know, With my willpower build it's more just to see how high I can get it.  Personal project sort of thing, That's why I was looking for a prime resistance set where I could sacrifice some of the regen from the powerset, but still stack a ton of regen from IOs onto it.  That way when the enemy does hit me I take the reduced damage because of the top tier resistance, then I heal it back as fast as possible because thats how I'll slot it.  Kind of double mitigation.

     

  11. Cool, I could have some fun with Dark as a regen build.

    I'mt trying to build the most regenerative character possible.  

    I'm working on a Farming build that will allow me to pull everything on the board, turn on my damage aura, and go get lunch.

  12. I'm working on a /wpr right now.  I'm overslotting it for regen, trying to see how much damage I could meat soak and regen and still live.

    I was thinking about finding something that went hard on resistance and slotting it for pure regen.

    I take less damage and passively heal it immediately.  So that In PvP, you gotta One shot me or you can't kill me(I hope).

     

    I was also thinking of doing something similar with a Sentinel, depending on what the most soaky armor is.   

     

    I'm not a fan of Stone Armor, it's one of the few sets I have a hard time playing because the Graphic just looks so wonky to me.

     Is there a strong runner up?

  13. What Tanker Primary has the most potential resistance?

    From what I understand, Invulnerability is the cats pajamas of Defense sets.

    What's the King D Mega Big Cheese of the resistance sets?

  14. I'm building a WPR/RAD Tanker

    Heightened Senses just became available but I'm not exactly sure what constitutes environmental damage.

    I'm thinking of skipping it.  What are your thoughts?

     

    As for Strength of Will, For the build I'm working on, It doesn't seem like it would be useful often enough to use up a top tier slot for.

     

    Am I wrong?
