But invulnerability, unlike rad, is a defense/resistance hybrid set. I don't think it makes sense to ignore defense on invul, unlike at least potentially rad.

If you wanted another zero-defense build, how about electric?

oohh good call- it would make sense to double down on a resistance based set. Ill roll up the rad/ss version, give it a spin then

December 9, 2022

The mo durable version is legendary no doubt (already build it out as a saves preset infact =p) I was wondering about the zero defense version that @Tsuko came up with, but instead of rad/ss it was invuln/ss

Defence is for teenage gurl : this build can free the 4 stars oracles solo

Is there a INV/SS version of this concept?? 😃

Here is my slotting for cross punch, all proc'd out. Double stacking rage helps the to-hit

I have 3 different builds, one is with procs for dmg/one for exemping/one for pure tanking but usually my cross punch stays slotted the same

October 9, 2021

Power creep has gotten so high that most t9 powers arnt in tune with set bonuses/incarnates anymore, but good on you for making it work for your play through!

Most players avoid or mule those powers, but in the early days they might have seen some use

September 26, 2021

If you wanna take your inv/ss to the next level, consider soul mastery (gloom/obli) and cross punch, all procc'd out

or Handclap (for rage crash mitigation)

Well, no Hasten and low global recharge jump out to me. Energize will have a 15 second downtime (66% uptime) which will have an affect on your endurance usage. No patron snipe or patron aoe are going to hold your damage back as well. Your AS recharges in 5.13s, and Crushing Uppercut in 8.85s, and Spinning Strike lacks a forcefeedback proc.

Take a look at my build. It doesn't use a patron AoE, the build is more single target oriented in role, but Mu Mastery is a great choice too for the ball lightning and zapp. This is a high recharge energy aura build that brings AS rchg down to 3.46s, and Crushing Uppercut to 6.21s, with double proc moonbeam at 6.29s. The total global recharge is +228.75%, or 248.75% with sg base buff. The enhanced value of AS is 348.63%, which is damn close to the recharge cap. Sprinkling in forcefeedback procs will cap out your recharge on things like crushing uppercut bringing it down to a 5s cooldown. All your damage is loaded into those crushing uppercuts and moonbeam so maximizing the recharge here has a huge effect on how the character feels to play. Energize and Hasten are also perma without forcefeedback. The build fit in 2 slots in Hurdle and 2 slots in sprint, and uses Musculature radial for a little extra in sprint in swift, the high unsuppressed movement speed feels great. Your toggles don't need to be slotted for endredux when energize is perma.

What's the attack chain for this build? @DreadShinobi im suuuuuuuper curious

August 28, 2021

Not to highjack the thread here, but what's your opinion on sav melee/dark armor?

the building skill displayed here is eye opening, and curious what I can do to improve or jsut scrap it and reroll

August 20, 2021

Ok, decided to make a base line here to share from the research I did. Really wanted to play with the tool box DA has to offer, in exchange for a bit of defenses

As the title suggests, word on the street is Kat/DA works well together. A resistance set paired with Divine Avalanche and low end cost primary, I would think DA auras can help Kats single target dmg.

Inspiration came from a samurai (Kenjutsu, Fear or presence on the battle field) so soul mastery for petrifying gaze, maybe dark wave attack for some ranged (also, opens up more winter sets), and combat teleport cause "Nani..?!" moments =p

Also, how practical is the presence pool for scrappers?

Any build advice or examples to start from would be super awesome!

CC baby, woot! 😃

Heres my combat teleport macro set up. Pick and choose your power and plug it in. Mind you, I have a corsair gaming mouse with buttons on the side MOUSE 4 and 5 so those are for quick access

------------------------------------------------------Teleport------------------------------------------------
/bind lshift+lbutton powexec_name Teleport
/bind lshift+lbutton powexec_name Combat Teleport

(( this is my main mobility teleport in general. Click a point in space and poof there))
/bind lshift+lbutton "powexec_name Teleport$$local *BAMF*"

/bind BUTTON4 "powexec_name Combat Teleport$$powexec_location target Combat Teleport"

(( this is my main one for combat^))

/macro BAMF "powexec_name Combat Teleport$$powexec_location target Combat Teleport"
/macro Recall "tell $target, I'm about to move you to my location.$$powexecname Teleport Target"

-Hold Right Mouse, then Left click aiming center of screen for max distance teleport-
/bind mousechord+lshift powexeclocation camera:max teleport
/bind mousechord powexeclocation camera:max Combat Teleport
/bind mousechord "$$powexec_toggleon Fly$$+forward"
/bind mousechord "$$powexec_toggleon Speed of Sound$$powexeclocation camera:max Jaunt"
/bind lctrl+lbutton powexec_name Spring Attack
/bind lalt+lbutton powexec_name Team Teleport
/bind lctrl+lbutton powexec_name Teleport
3) Using the numberpad, select a Teammate by ordered number and teleport to them: [[ /bind numpad2 "team_select 2$$powexec_location target Teleport" ]]

The example above is teammate #2. Set up a bind for each teammate 1 through 8. The tricky part about this is that it requires two clicks, one to select the target, and one to teleport. Just quickly double-click the key to get over there instantly.

invuln/ss is my vote

Ive been generic'd quite a few times, and solution I found was to have a costume for when out in public, and any favs you want for when your in a mission

Kinda like keeping a secret identity, cant wear the copywrite in public, only when with guild members or have an OC costume when visiting atlas/pocket d

keep the name ambiguous or a spin off, and you should be fine

Here's my colossus; I dont show it off in AP lol GM's will get you

Yeah, no.

The bind to end all binds. Ladies n Gents, I present to you, one-handed-at-will-ctp

/bind mousechord powexeclocation camera:max Combat Teleport

This will allow you to hold right mouse, then click left mouse and- ZOOM wherever the cameras pointing. GG.

----------------------------------------------------

other fan favorites-

/bind BUTTON4 "powexec_name Combat Teleport$$powexec_location target Combat Teleport"

this one is the same, but for regular teleport

/bind mousechord+lshift powexeclocation camera:max teleport

EDIT- FYI, it can take the stealth IO to hide you when you port for quick stealthing past stuff incase you fall short. I 5 slot mine with Adjusted targeting/1 slot teleport-stealth-IO-thingy

EDIT 2-

3) Using the numberpad, select a Teammate by ordered number and teleport to them: [[ /bind numpad2 "team_select 2$$powexec_location target Teleport" ]]

The example above is teammate #2. Set up a bind for each teammate 1 through 8. The tricky part about this is that it requires two clicks, one to select the target, and one to teleport. Just quickly double-click the key to get over there instantly.

I use this one ALL THE TIME when Im back tracking or caught up in steps.

DO NOTE, TELEPORT WORKS THROUGH WALLS WITH THIS (as long as your in range.

Also Nightcrawler has no KB protection. If he gets hit he goes flying!

Is this part of his cannon or just a pun on dark armor? =p

I have him built as Savage melee/Dark armor and with the new combat teleport, he's prolly the most fun toon I've ever played, hands down (So much, id be tempted to make him my main for a long time)

Below is a compilation of bind I've set to make the most of combat teleport

-------------------------

(This one is the side mouse button btw)

/bind BUTTON4 "powexec_name Combat Teleport$$powexec_location target Combat Teleport"

or, as a button for the bar

/macro BAMF "powexec_name Combat Teleport$$powexec_location target Combat Teleport"

/bind mousechord powexeclocation camera:max Combat Teleport

/bind mousechord+lshift powexeclocation camera:max teleport

Using the numberpad, select a Teammate by ordered number and teleport to them

Example:

/bind numpad2 "team_select 2$$powexec_location target Teleport"

/macro Recall "tell $target, I'm about to move you to my location.$$powexecname Teleport Target"

---------------------------------------------------------

Big conflict in my head about NOT taking Teleport Target or Fold Space. Nightcrawler has to see and touch the people he's teleporting and I feel like targeting someone across the map kinda is more of summoning thing... Fold Space is kinda neat tho and the only application I can see would be pulling a bunch of mobs into an aoe storm or off an ally, but then again, that doesn't feel very NC'y. I could see the power useful for a tanker, but I'm on the fence about it

Now team teleport I can easily see, and especially Incarnate Vorpal and the teleport recovery destiny, as lets face it, nightcrawlers super power isn't teleporting- its saving people all the time lol

F ? TW needs a drink raised to it, may it one day be practical or at least aesthetic again

How bad did TW get pooped on, and if so, how does it compete with other sets now? Im assuming there was a meta shift...

I know water is a popular option for corr (water/ice), but I'm lookin for a high recharge ice/cold build or just any build advice =p

my theme here is Shiva from the FF series, so id like hover/fly and able to freeze everything in place

I appreciate the time! 😃

Speed of sound is very fun, you can que up an attack for when you land and it's like fighting at super speed!

I ment where in the build would it be added?

November 10, 2020

Sorry to necro here, but seeing how Speed of Sound would fit in here would be amazing

with the new changes to teleport, we can definitely get some use outta the new BAMF mechanic 🥳

Dual blades revolves around the combo system. How will that work out with stalker and AS?

This is actually a really solid point, the mechanics are the best clue we have. Straight up damage and survivability overlap a lot between the various ATs and sets, I have stalkers way tougher than my fire brute. And my proc'd out Defender does better ST dmg (solo) than my elec stalker.

So applying mechanics:

Wolverine clearly gets enraged, which could be considered fury making him a brute. The question is does his fighting style lend itself more to fury than crits? I say no, he loves his head-shots and joint-shots, he's just an angry scrapper.

Hulk doesn't seem to aim his shots for crits, he just smashes, and gets particularly nasty when angry, so I think the mechanics are clearly brute.

And DD is clearly crit-based. So the question is does he use more stealth/hide/placate tactics for his crits, or straight up melee for crits? I remember quite a few fights where DD killed the lights to use stealth to his advantage, and he definitely has stealth/hide mechanics. But I also remember even more fights where he used/threw his baton mid-battle for nasty crits and headshots. So despite being far squishier than Wolverine, he might just be a /SR scrapper whose toughness is limited solely to avoidance, and weak against an enemy with massive ToHit leveling out his defense, aka Bullseye or even Punisher. Who are both Blasters? The mythical ranged Scrapper that ya'll have been dreaming about?

This, I can agree on, especially the points about DD and wolverine rage just a part of his rp.

Nightcrawler sets in mind? Like I said, savage melee seems super thematic in CoH cause of the t9 pounce it gets, but that can be replaced with spring attack. I could see sabertooth no questions asked about SM, but nightcrawler-eh? Since he's a good melee combatant, but not the best out there, one could justify his non optimal picks for acrobatic attacks out of the Leaping tree. Definitely a stalker, especially since the ATO does that rehide mechanic, which pairs nicely with the indigo fur bit

I chose dark armor OVER sr for nightcrawler. Crawler is agile, don't get me wrong, but he can get hit and often does (assuming he's not on the offence with teleporting) Spiderman 100% SR cause spidey sense, but nightcrawler not so much, hence the dark armor gig. I could equate it to his interaction with the dimension and darkness for the fear and aura stuff.

Attack set, tho..? Still cant decide. =\

*edit - typos

I was thinking savage melee/dark armor stalker at first... but im not too sure on the stalker part
