Also, the drift is kind of a pain.
-
Has anyone found a useful power in the Epic/Ancillarys pools? It's almost as though they were designed meek to counter the early power curve of Sentinels.
-
Do you leave it on in combat? I always found Flight mega annoying to fight with.
-
Is there a way to do these with just a couple people, other than getting someone to join just through the first door? Ouros, or the queue, or something? Thanks!
-
Is this useable in combat, or do you drift like standard flight?
-
Thanks - so you know where they are in the base menu? I can't seem to get a teleporter working. Thanks!
-
Thanks. Aren't the telepads free now? But we have to unlock the beacons the old-fashioned way?
-
How do I place working teleporters? Thanks.
-
Thanks - so PM gives dam buff and def buff? Why pop Fortify Pack in that case?
-
That was it - thanks.
-
I only get 30% resist and 20% AOE def. Where am I missing the extra 5%?
-
Thanks for taking the time to do this and post it.

For Brutes, Evolving Armor caps at about +10% resist and +5% Defense from Defensive Adaptation. With the HP buff and another 10/5 from other powers, I could see that making a difference when tanking.
-
I agree that the set is very different for Tanks than it is for Scrappers or Brutes. Are you sure Evolving Armor buffs past 10 opponents for Tanks?
-
Definitely. The minimal FX option is fine, though.
-
You'd have to slot your build to maximize Defensive. Just switching it on doesn't provide enough of a boost to turn you into a tank. I'm sure it can be situationally useful. I'll probably just IO 45% defense to S/L and run Offensive. Giving up 50% damage just isn't worth a few hp and maybe 15% resist. Unless there are some other "hidden" powers. ;)
-
50% damage loss v Offensive. I agree that Defensive is nice when tanking, but not really for Brutes or Scrappers. I suppose if you have 2 builds you could mini-tank when needed, but for the most part I think it's a waste. Maybe what the Tier 9's were meant to be, minus the crash?
-
What Generator said. It's hard to make informed decisions on the new powersets, so I just wanted to contribute to the database. Something like that should definitely be in either the description or the detailed info. Defensive Adaptation is not exactly Stone Armor, I don't see many situations where losing 50% damage is worth the extra resist.
-
Important stuff you don't find in the power info: Offensive Adaptation gives you -7.5 resistance. Defensive Adaptation gives you -25% damage. This is in addition to losing the bonus that the other gives, and is kind of a big deal.
-
Sentinels seems to be END hogs, which makes the Rad Armor an attractive secondary. I tested Gamma Boost today, it looks like at 2/3 hp you get an unslotted Stamina and Health. At full hp you get 1.5 base Stamina. At 1 hp you get 2.5 base Health. Not sure if it's set defining, but a very nice power.
-
Still no joy. :(
-
Thanks, does not work with underscores or without quotes.

Anyone been able to get bind loads to work? This is what I used: /bindloadfile "c:\coh\binds.txt" Thanks!

Homecoming News: PayPal Woes and Arena Foes
Tankshock replied to GM Tempest's topic in Announcements
Paypal has developed some very poor customer service. Looking forward to some decent competition in that market. -
Funny story from the early days: I was playing an energy tanker, and would run around helping other heroes then hit a bind that said "No charge for my power". I'm all about the bad puns. Finally someone said "Is there a charge to make you go away?". Which was an objectively funny response. That's when I learned about "kill stealing". It's good to get outside our own bubbles.
