I was here since beta- I was upset my EB Games preorder didn’t have the sprint I wanted 😞 thar being said, I ain’t an old fart!! Okay I’m 33.

I really don’t play psi without cross punch lol

My problem with the set is the huge delay between animation ending and the hit, due to the shurikens flying and the explosions being delayed. its also not too strong given Its damage typing... compared to like dark which is so rarely resisted it hits hard..

My new water/poison build for cor that I just redid today is at 45%+ SLER... working just fine, still proc heavy.

1. I have an electric/thorns at 50/incarnates, which totally doesn’t work lol well it does but it definitely doesn’t “jive” with itself. Lol I don’t think any set really does, but a sleep-oriented one definitely doesn’t lol. Maybe one day I’ll do a dark/thorns or an earth/thorns... 2. plant is the way to go, honestly... fire, psi or savage... savage is pretty great and really strong. And super fun. Gave myself a Dark/Thorns makeover... little sad that it's just short of ranged def... >: (

Time is good for a first time run (seeing how it’s so good lol)

While I don’t agree with starting bot/ff (zzzzzz), I do agree that you should probably start /away/ from poison, as it leaves a totally bitter taste on low MMs...

Is there any data on Poison Trap proc % here? Can it handle recharge like mids suggests?

Thanks, Except it's actually fine. As in, I finished it. Played it. End doesn't drop.

Okay Okay... I'm back... with another poison... This time trying maybe Dual Pistols? And it's not that my poisons underperform, I just really like poison... and corruptors (hence why its not a defender :P)... (although I think PTrap needs accuracy, so i replaced the obliteration with Arm Acc slot to get above 95%...) I'll try it without Cardiac first, but I hate endurance problems so yeah 🙂 This'll have 45 S/L/E/R

Ahem. I know this is actually known by a lot of people right now... But Frigid Shield is granting such a miniscule amount of absorption it's totally broken. 😛 How broken? Mine gives +81 HP Absorb. 81. Yup. Broken. It stacks to 162 sometimes for a second before it erases. There are theories that it's supposed to stack up to a higher absorb, but well it doesn't. And the power doesn't do anything else besides 10% slow resist.... sooOo can we fix it? It's oddly not even as good as /plants +absorb from Blasters, which for some reason despite its low numbers makes you take a crap-less damage, whereas this isn' even noticeable 😕

I’ve seen a few. I also have one. I have an AR/Ice sentinel... she’s ... special...

Works just like Hit points. Just like how your def/resists go before your hit points, your absorb goes before the hit points. So Defense -> Gets Through -> Gets Reduced -> Gets Absorbed -> Green bar goes down

Playing on both TB and Excelsior, I have to say -- I see a LOT more doms/controllers on Excelsior than I do on TB. I can't get a team on Excelsior without 3-4 Doms/Trollers... lol

You're welcome

Nah, but you should still do it.

No, that's why I can't really ever use it -- it would be me fighting vs the game to use it out of preference. My Plant/Sav is Hawk, Leap, Vicious, Stranger, Unkindness, Roots for its attacks (chose to go roots rather than a PPP for now, which seems to be working quite well -- primarily because I didn't really have enough time for another regularly-used AoE anyways... things die so fast with plant/sav... so I just went Water Spout, at least for now. I kinda really want fireball, but I do find use in Hibernate since I'm a bit... overzealous. Although I like Psi, Tornado is too slow to use for the speed of savage... so I just kinda said 'meh' and decided throwing roots out was fine enough [and it is]... Kinda interested in Mu as well... but we'll see if I decide to switch things up. Likely could end up with ice PPP, as sleet would fit in just great over Spout.)

Yah, I'm keeping it for now - but I still think the tab-ability of say call swarm is pretty appealing vs hawk. It's probably because I like call swarm but can never actually use it on any character lol... xD

CO hd a bad launch. And had a period of good times. And has been on a deathbed since they lost their sub model. That being said, CO was a lot of fun for a long time for me, just doing random characters etc. The problem really is the cookie-cutterness of it. You basically had buckets to fill - which CoH has within each powerset, but CO only had certain powers of certain types to fill those buckets. And the lack of buffs/debuffs/controls weren't very fun. You also weren't able to feel very super (aka overpowered) in CO if you didn't invest time into understanding items, which the game didn't make that very easy to do until, well, you spent time thinking about it. I think a lot of people couldn't get past a lot of that, so they never got to fully understand it. I have like 12 level 50s on CO that all do very well, but it took a long time into the games life before it all really clicked. I havent played it in over a year now, but yeah. A lot of people that talk badly about it didn't really play it, and that's fine. First impressions are lasting impressions.

Your MM /sonic should already have zombies at 90% without barrier 😛

Oh I know. It’s a struggle.

Okay, it's all IO'd out and incarnated... but Im questioning if I want to keep Call Hawk (which notably does a crap ton of damage) or just load its stuff into Swarm and use that -- at that point, I'd have no "consumers" so i can spam away and keep my endurance reduction without worrying about exhaustion... right now I feel bad sometimes using Hawk because itll consume my endurance redux 😞

So for something like... Carrion Creepers, do you have to do the proc chance % for each ability the pet casts, assuming you slot recharge into Carrion?

Interesting you find dark so bad, as I find jts damage quite for a dominator assault set... mostly from the lack of negative resist
