5.13 max absorb on self on live Beta doesn't list any absorption for reaction time.

I just keep fighting when that happens. The monkey's fart cloud is OPaF.

Yea, I don't get the whole movement nerf that's on beta right now. Seems pointless to me. Movement powers should stack. I'll be quite annoyed if I find my fire/bio sent's hover speed ends up on the nerfed list, but I expect it.

Post it.

Posts by BillZBubba are based on non proc-monster builds and have been shown several times to be inferior to heavy proc builds. Masterminds (MMs) are also broken against pylons since their pets are even con against them unlike everything else in the game. Heavy-proc build EM users appear to be ... godly.

I have seen far too many posts from blasters saying they can tank. It's sad really.

And some of us will always consider this a bad thing.

Here's my sr/mace tank. Maybe it'll give you some ideas.

Something's very wrong with the Mids link. I barely see any Set IOs.

They gonna update the link on http://www.cityofplayers.com/coh-modder So that it doesn't frag the new launcher?

Come to think on it... that +300% cap SUCKS!

Hilariously enough, since the defender cap is +300%, I hit it solo on my time/fire defender since enhanced values are taken into account for the cap. It ain't hard to hit +200% on your own. Edit: With assault running, and she's lvl 44, I'm starting at 57.75%, I click on Aim (single slotted with Gaussian CFBU) and Power Buildup, and I'm at 267.75%.

I find that I have to agree with this in part. I can absolutely see many people building their brutes for the tank role (we do get taunt auras and a real taunt after all) but scrappers and stalkers? Yea, the job there is to kill and stay standing while ya do so. Unlike blasters who kill and then lick dirt.

Makes sense. My farmer lives blueside so all my alts do as well until I change alignment to go help someone do something redside. Granted, with the beta changes regarding slotting and the ease of getting SOs at lvl 2 and keeping them green, I may very well spend more time redside in the near future.

On the topic of melee running leadership, yea, on my tanks, maybe. Scrappers and brutes, not a chance. Max recharge + max damage = I'm gonna need body/nrg mastery for more end so I can go barrier\rebirth instead of ageless while still maintaining all my defensive toggles and taking down AVs solo.

Hit the damage cap with just two of them?

That's rather interesting.

I think The Boys version was FAR more uplifting and pro-female than the garbage in A:E. Although I will add that when I saw A:E in the theater I grinned a lot when Thanos headbutted CM and she didn't flinch. And the look she gave before he punched the crap out of her with a power stone infused smash was genuinely well acted. Just think The Boys is a vastly more realistic view of how most humans would be with super powers.

True statement. I've always avoided gloom on my claws users due to redraw but now that we can just run with no redraw it makes little sense to avoid it other than needing to go Nrg/Body Mastery for more end.

Makes one wonder what everything would feel like if ALL powers were set back to the original equations and then adjusted for arcanatime.

I'm guessin that since I solo so much I always forget to add that part and just think it assumed. I gotta quit doin that.

I did the Werner rules ITF without DN or RoP on my SR/Claws. DN will make it safer but you don't need RoP at all. Be sure to crank up your Nrg/NegNrg DR though.

I generally look at as a place for an apocalypse set. I always need another 10% more recharge. Although.... maybe on the tank or brute I could just make sure I have enough global recharge to push followup, gloom, focus, slash and get a couple more procs in there....

Max diff, no faceplants (and this means no cheating with the base porter macro,) no temps, no amps, no insps, enemies buffed ITF. Go do that successfully and then we'll discuss one's ability to tank.

Fire/Bio. Hands down. I've done beam/bio, fire/nin, fire/sr, ice/sr, rad/regen, nrg/inv, nrg/nrg and those are just the ones I've not deleted within a few levels. For absolute purity of tankmagery goodness, fire/bio all the way.
