Murcielago

I didn't choose the click life, it chose me.

It depends What your playstyle is like What you prefer What primary you're choosing What secondary you're choosing But ultimately just pick one and try it out. If you don't like it, re-roll it and play it as the other AT. Or just log into Justin Pineapple and try out both without much time invested.

Also what this tells me is Sentinels need some buffing. I'm playing one and it a few steps away from anemic. The trade off with Blaster's damage is mitigation but man it feels like a huge difference.

I like it, thanks for changes!

I wish people would stop asking this censored question and just play the game.

So what you're saying is nerf brutes?

ALL THE MELEES

Its 44.5% ranged soft capped defense. I am currently working on a s/l/e soft capped build. Its much easier to get.

No AT is needed but Scrappers NEED Super Strength

Sentinels are not able to choose shield defense as a secondary.

Now this build is bonkers amount of recharge, it follows the kill or be killed mantra.

I'm re-rolling a lot of my old live characters and decided to make my Spines/DA Scrapper into a Brute instead. Dark was always a mix bag of end hog, resistance, and some defense but with set IOs endurance is less of an issue. As a brute he gets superior conditioning rather than conserve energy which allows me to slot 3 performance shifters into the build. I was trying to hit 35% positional defense to all three and round it out with some decent resistance and keep dark regen up as often as possible. I didn't take hasten as I really don't like it so the build is fairly low on recharge, so we'll see how long not having hasten lasts. Any feedback is appreciated.

I put both in long recharge AoEs. One is in Explosive Arrow and the other is in Rain of Arrows.

I have zero experience with psy melee but the shield part looks fine. Only thing I'd change is the force feedback io in shield charge. I find it doesn't add that much overall recharge to the build. I vaguely remember in live it averaged out to 5% which is nice but not huge.

If you don't want to hear the game is too easy, don't come into a thread about nerfing a set that is making the game too easy.

Ironically said in a thread about nerfing titan weapons.

TW/Bio is an absolute outlier with sets but I'd wager that it is really the only outlier when paired with that combination. Bio covers almost every weakness TW has.

I'd speculate a large minority of the game population doesn't use SOs either. Where the problem lies is: A. Availability of IO sets. It is way too easy in this game to make an absolute monster of a hero now. What used to cost billions and billions of INF is now available for maybe 500m INF if you're patient. My build for Murcielago before VR sets became ungodly expensive would hover in the 1.5-2.5 bnINF. Which leads to. B. Difficulty of content. Because set IOs are so easy to come by the content difficulty has because laughably easy. Its fun don't get me wrong but ultimately the root cause is IO sets and their easy availability. Seeding the market with salvage was great for the beginning but it's added a layer of "too easy" to the game. If something needs to be done, its the devs need to adjust the drop rates of recipes or enhancement converters and make IO sets expensive again.

That's how I would slot for SOs That's how powersets are created. IF all powersets were created with IOs in mind they would MUCH different than they currently are. I cannot even fathom what sets would be like if live Devs had made them with IOs in mind.

Outside of IOs TW sucks. People seem to forget that you cannot balance a set around IOs. IOs are variable. SOs are not. With just SOs TW is middle of the pack at best.

In order to access the game you have to send 1 billion inf to @murcielago

Why stop at +6? Why not just make it a slider that goes all the way to +9000?
