Welcome back! I recently returned as well and it’s been great fun so far. With DA you need to really slot your attacks with End Red as I find it is attacks that drain your endurance the most especially a set like katana which is relatively fast activating and recharging. If you are using basic IOs I would slot your attacks with Acc x2, Dam x 3 and End x1 If you have kismet +hit then you might get away with just 1x Acc. If you need some INF to help you along send me a DM and I can mail you some.

I really think you are spot on it’s all psychology. I get annoyed with myself when I run up to a mob line up and wait for the animation and whiff I completely miss. I am like what the hell. It’s a stationary target and I am supposed to be a super assassin lol.

Still learning stalkers but it’s been great so far. One question I would like to ask the stalker community. I am missing a lot with AS from hide. I mean more than I would expect. It doesn’t really matter since I don’t reveal myself after a miss but it’s very odd that I miss so much. Is there a mechanic or a quirk I am missing? I have 58% accuracy and this is against +1 and +2 mobs.

I always favored the scrapper for melee characters and never understood the point of stalkers, viewing them merely as weaker scrappers who preferred stealth to direct combat. However, this perception has changed dramatically. Due to a character concept I had I rolled a BS/SR scrapper and levelled him to 28, but became disenchanted by the mediocre damage output, which many NPCs resisted. Curiosity led me to the scrapper forums, where I read about the superior performance of BS when used by stalkers. Encouraged, I decided to give it a try. Following the advice on the forums, I invested in two ATO procs, and the result was astounding. The damage output was phenomenal, and with the ATO procs, the character felt incredibly powerful and enjoyable. This stalker could not only match but surpass my scrapper in every aspect. In one notable encounter with a large mob, the Build Up proc activated four times, resulting in a spectacular display of critical hits and big orange numbers. Now, I am a complete convert—I absolutely love stalkers. They offer the ability to stealth, engage in combat effectively, and deliver tremendous damage, making them thrilling to play. I wish I tried them earlier

Thank you very much for your comprehensive explanation of the difference of the two. Really insightful and I think you are spot on. I feel that Necro plays a lot better overall and you can tell the update is well thought out and has really rounded them out. Demons have more AOE and can finish large mobs quicker but definitely not as safe. On missions with difficult mobs with two bosses or more I faceplant more often. I hope demons get looked at for next update.

So I recently levelled a Necro/Dark to lvl 50 and I am now doing the same for Demons/Dark and currently sitting at 47. I tend to do +3/6 from around level 30 and I have to say I am having a rougher time with Demons. I am face planting a lot more especially missions with 2 or more Longbow bosses in the same mob. I don’t know what it is but I expected an easier ride than Necro. I think the difference is the constant debuff from Necro henchman and Soul extraction is so strong vs Hell on Earth. i am curiously what are people experiences and if there are any tips for demons?

Malta Sappers are my bane. They slow me down massively and resulted in quite a few hospital visits if I don’t plan properly so it also depends on who you are facing also.

Pure solo that can do most content and varied difficulties settings I would say mastermind. Has all the tools needed as it’s pretty straight forward to play but you might get bored as it’s the minions that doing the killing.

Does anyone know if Demons will get changes similar to other Pets' powers in Issue 27 P5 - i.e. making enchant demons and Abyssal Empowerment able to buff the secondary powers of pets? Thanks and apologies if this has already been discussed but I cannot find anything in search.

Can someone help with a Guyver custume, I am struggling to get it close enough to the anime. I am thinking of making him Claws/Bio armour or MA/Bio scrapper

Thanks a lot

Can I ask which price of mark of supremacy and SCotMM you used?

Thank you very much. I will test the changes you suggested and feedback

Any thoughts on improvement on mb build?

My build actual sucks - I realised in game I dont have perma PA/Hasten and i am running out of stamina because of all the toggles Any feedback is welcomed

So I got my character to level 50 and I am starting to slot my end IOs. Those +3 HO are expensive! I have a question for those with good experience on enhancing IOs. I have 2 full sets of attuned Cloud senses because I thought I may need them if I exemplar down. The % coming from lvl 30 is pretty poor. Will it be better to buy new set and enhance them to lvl 30+5 to get better bonus?

I remember on another thread someone mentioned even though Howling Twilight is autohit the Procs needs “to hit” check so accuracy is needed. Not sure if you had issues with not slotting accuracy

Thank you - really appreciate the feedback

I noticed in some powers you only have 1 slot for accuracy like Poison Ray - is that enough for later content to consistently hit critters?

Thank you very much @Carnifax that is great help - I will look through your build properly but I can already see some helpful hints

I’m trying to do a full import of my build but MIDs is not letting me. I keep getting error when I try to export. I imagine it’s hard for people to see and comment. I will see if I can use the screenshot option when I get home

Hi all, Sincen discovering HomeComing I have been playing Illusion/Dark controller who is now level 39 and I am now planning ahead for end game build for when I hit 50. Below data chunk is what I came up with from reading the advice from the forums and my own rusty knowledge for when I played before sunset. I am looking for end game build to use for Incarnates and general high level gameplay. I never played any character into Incarnate level before so I literally don't know much about it or what is best for Illusion/Dark Controller so any advice is welcome. What I am generally looking for is feedback on: 1) Where I can further optimise slotting and IOs 2) Is my placement and powers efficient 3) Its not designed for ultra challenges like x8/+4 but I would like to be able to solo GMs and AVs as normal content. 4) What Incarnates I should aim for. 5) I built up a character chest of around 1 billion inf through playing the market and I am sure I can make more if I really put my time in so inf is not really an issue.

Amazing - such good news!

My hesitancy with blasters is the mezz - I always played characters that had mezz protection or ability to lock down critters before I got mezzed. So I don’t know how to play blasters in that sense
