My vote will go to... The person who can moderately use contractions. Is that one of your strengths? Perhaps you're generally opposed?

Sorry, no vote. Too many threads to explain why, please see other threads.

Sorry, have to vote no. Too many cases where this is a functional reduction in capability. One such example is dull pain, where an invuln tank gains a large +Regen, due to the larger hp pool.

Co did exactly nothing that could even blow pong out of the water. CoH is vastly superior on all fronts. And the block mechanic is beyond stupid.

50+ water/SR sentinel... Between dehydrate and defensive opportunity it's tons of healing as I spam attacks. Hard no vote on removing the healing component of opportunity. It's amazing.

Co was the worst kind of terrible. Costume creator was garbage. Everything looked pastelly. Stupid default border art. Character proportions were retarded. Necks 12 inches long, faces twisted up, feet too big, arms like stretch Armstrong. Movement was worse than bad, running looked completely stupid. Costume clipping was horrid. Blocking was epicly dumb, I have to block to... Why? Powers were boring and generic. Small world. No content. No community. Nothing. It was a beta version of a poorly haphazard game that was cobbled together and abandoned. They should be ashamed.

Inv is going to be tied with stone for top tier. Inv can: 120%+ to s/l 67%-89% all others +10-20% more resist to all from tank ATO proc +7% more from scaling DR from io 45% to defense when 10 foes are around you Massive hp pool causing huge Regen, especially when you hit dull pain Another heal with rebirth. And this is with taking cardiac alpha and hybrid assault. In combat, spamming attacks, an invuln with a fully kitted build (this will be expensive, 1 billion) will have around 80-90% resist all, even psionics and will have 45% defense to all types, save psionics def.

I'm not opposed to any of this. Toggle suppression keeps getting mentioned, and I no vote it due to end drain, and also people ignore 1 facet: if you are a tri-former, human shields are supefluous because they cannot be slotted at all well enough to be of any use. So the point that we need it so badly because we go human and need to retoggle... Is really a non-issue. That said, if the time investment is low for development, and there's no end drain, I'm ambivalent. Status prot in shields is good, it would help mono and bi formers. Pets aren't bad off. I would welcome a buff. Knock to, no vote. Damage cap increase/buff should be 1 priority.

How would this affect bind tray swap using Kheldians? My WS hits form, and bottom tray swaps to the proper tray, so I can use the bottom tray as my 1-10 keys. I've never had an instance where the trays are out of order. Bottom is 1, or I can change it with the arrow/key, next is 2 etc.. I'm not quite clear on what you're thinking? Help me a bit.

Sorry, have to no vote.

Has anyone else been running into this? Whether in mission, in base or in the open world, rubberbanding spells and fits have been frequent and excessive. I bet network load is extreme, as we're all using the interwebs in different ways than usual. I would be willing to wager this isn't a HC issue, but rather so many people in my area, Southern California, doing internetty thingies!

If you plan to exemplar here's the simple rules, 1. Attune all no purple sets (attuning is the process of either buying it attuned or catalyzing a non attuned) 2. Attune ATO's once you hit lvl 50 3. Do not attune purple sets, they are attuned by nature, +5 them if you want 4. Regular io's: get the io lvl to be 3 levels above the lowest level you will exemp to in a power that is available at that lvl. For example if you regularly exempt to 22, use 25 io's in any power that would be unlocked at 22.

Not that I'm against it, but you do know... Make Savage melee look like claws melee. So, you're gonna get that objection. Myself? I don't mind either way.

There doesn't need to be a drain. There's no negative impact to leaving it and there is potential harm to inf conversion. ROI on nay work on this is infintesimal.

You're kinda arguing just for the sake of having an argument. It's plain not everyone wants to do those arcs, but this is proof of concept that having only 30m inf by lvl 40 is doing something wrong. The example I used was just one series of arcs, there are plenty others. They all have similar rewards, so discounting that the data supports the claim by mentioning that not everyone wants to do that series doesn't invalidate the point, by lvl 32 story missions arcs, merit conversion to converters and auctioning them at 80k each will get you more than 100m inf easily. Further, and I hope this helps you on your next Alt, don't waste merits buying sets, you threw away literally 100 million inf. By converting those to inf and buying attuned enhances as you level, you get much more return, 100 merits = 1 ATO 1 ATO = 8 mill inf 100 merits = 300 converters 300 converters @ 80k each = 24mill inf For 100 converters you could have bought 3 ATO's, if you bought them from the AH for inf; instead, you bought them from the vendor for merits. It's horribly expensive to do that, as you can see from the math above. And that's not even considering io's that only go for 2-3m each, like posi, mako, oblit, etc. And that doesn indeed support my previous statement. As for the opinion that incarnate salvage/locked/must have way out... Not valid, as allowing conversion to inf would cause dramatic inflation. Further, there is no supporting evidence that there "must" be a way to sell it, as the incarnate system works fine. So there's threads that you don't use. Is there harm? Does it really matter? Would there be a dramatic improvement to most aspects of the game if it was changed? Would 80% of the player base care? No vote. TheROI on this is infintesimal, even if it weren't a bad idea, and there are 1,000 other things that would be so much more important to spend time improving from a game development standpoint.

My db/ea stalker is at lvl 34. 46% defense to all types but psi already. 5 lotgs, ATO stalker's guile full set in Assassin's blades, other stalker ATO full set in power slice. Very high recharge already, 6 seconds off perma hasten, by lvl 39 will be perma. Attack chains are as follows 1. From hide long AS on bosses, BU>AS>AB>SS>PS>repeat with or without BU if recharged 2. From hide or not fast moving team, BU>AB>AS>SS>PS>repeat with or without BU if recharged 3. With AoE extra attack in chain of I am primary damage and have to AoE more than ST, BU>AB>AS>SS>PS>OTC>repeat One of the ATO rocs has a chance to instantly recharge BU, and it happens often, so you end up having crazy high spike damage from constant BU. Put Gausian's BU proc in BU. Ignore combos. Focus on getting enough recharge to get these attack chains with no gaps, and the damage gets crazy high. Because sweep combo is: BU>AS>AB it will fire off regularly as a bonus, but don't worry about it. Dps on these chains has been shown to be about 450, pretty darn high. Some get over 500 which is in the neighborhood of sub 2 min pylon and enough to overcome AV Regen.

If you only had 30 million inf by 40, you're doing something wrong. Even with double XP. 1. Street sweep atlas to lvl 5 2. Go to hollows 3. Talk to Wincott, do his whole arc. 4. Do Flux's arc 5. Do Julius' arc 6. Do talsok's arc, turn off xp at 14.9 level, if you hit 15 you can't finish his arc Once done in hollows you will have nearly 100 merits and be level 15. 100 merits x 3 converters we merit = 300 converters 300 converters x 80k each = 24 million inf 24million - AH fee = 20 million inf approximately by level 15. Next: 1. Go to faultline 2. Talk to Jim temblor, do his arc 3. Do Penelope yin's arc 4. Do doc Delilah's arc 5. Do agent G's arc Once done in faultline you will be lvl 25-26 and have another 100+ merits easily. That's another 20-30 million. Next: Go to Croatoa 1. Talk to Gordon Bower, do his arc 2. Do Skipper LeGrange's arc 3. Do Kelly Nemmer's arc 4. Do Buck Salenger's arc That's I think 80+ more merits. By this point you will be lvl 32. With over 100 million in inf from merits to converters and drops, with double XP booster and inf earning off. It's that easy. Also, these arcs are fun.

I refer not to have additional things on my PC by default, so, no thanks.

The inflation shock from this would be unavoidable and undesirable. I sternly suggest NOT embarking down this path. Additionally, you never need to spend 100,000,000 for incarnates, everything you need to craft is given to you for regular game play.

Oh look, my horse. Hey, anyone have a stick?

Has anyone seen my horse?

Katana and SR go great together. The beauty of the two is Kat is fast recharging, needing no hasten and SR has clickie mez, so your autofire skill is used for mez, not hasten. SR also has +recharge and +speed. You have two paths, pre and post 32, usually. (Although I never took DA personally) Pre 32 you will use divine avalanche to supplement defenses. By the time you hit 32, if you invest in io's you will not need divine avalanche. My fully io'd Kat/SR scrap is so durable she doesn't need medicine pool and her defenses are all 54%+ without DA and 49% s/l resist, 20-30% others not counting scaling DR. Rebirth at incarnates is there for healing, I've only used it once. Golden Dragonfly, like most scrap t9s will routinely 1 shot bosses. Pumps out solid AoE and huge single target damage. SR blooms late, so the ride to 50 was planned early and I invested in io's early so I had no problems. Under full kit, SR is set and forget unkillable defense and you go full scraplock. Amazing combo.

That was the worst, back then. I actually loved grav more then because I could summon 3 singys, and I actually skipped propel. When they changed pets, grav took it in the shorts. I miss my 3 singys. Make propel a targeted AoE with a .5sec faster animation, make singy spawn in a duo, cut wormhole animation by .7-1sec, replace AoE intangible with AoE gravity pulsing knockdown... Much better set.

I posted way back on page... 2? I didn't even read after that. I clicked the last page and saw flame... And bought marshmallows 😁 So toasty... If I take my salvage to the bathroom... Is it yellow salvage? I'm not sure we can salvage this thread.
