@InvaderStychI really wouldn't mind at all for that post to be stickied somewhere. Great info and thank you for the time you spent on it.

Once you're at the softcap, DM's tohit debuffs become a wash. Adding KD to Spin and KB>KD to shockwave plus Focus' chance for KD will provide a TON of mitigation to allow for (as DG2005 states) your natural regen to do its thing. DM's damage output can be nice but really only when Soul Drain is fully utilized. It's aoe output is not very good, even with the recent Shadow Maul buff.

My farmer goes with FU, Burn, Spin, FU, Shockwave, Fireball. I wouldn't mind tightening that up some. There's usually a gap between SW and FB that gets filled with Consume or Fiery Embrace or whatever.

Gotta keep that secret identity secret.

Sometimes I do IF I'm playing with my SG or my brother. Other than that? Nope. I'll also assume those that have invited me are not using voice chat unless the team leader specifically broadcasts as such at the start.

Because it's a bunch of nondevs making the suggestions in the first place and there's zero difference between the two?

Again, I see no need for enduring. Does Invul have some kind of +end power? If SR gets to combine passives and get a Sent based +recovery, shouldn't Invul? Shouldn't Shield? Like SR, it doesn't get end recovery until the T9. Of course, Shield's T9 isn't a steaming pile of uselessness like Elude and Unstoppable. I get what you're going for. I also get Troo's distaste for altering the set too much. It's actually easier for me to make the argument that Bio and Rad armors provide far too much in the "extra" department, as do ALL of the Sentinel armors, and to perhaps nerf them all, rather than continuing down the road of power creep and making already godlike sets even godlier.

I see no reason to combine the other powers thus freeing up that slot. Having played SR on a Sent, I think it went overboard. It does feel like something that isn't SR. Melee SR doesn't need enduring. It's overkill. Edit 2: And, yes, other sets with click mez protection should be given the same option.

I'm fine with the power order being tweaked. Scrappers absolutely get evasion far too late. I'm fine with melee SR getting the exact Sent treatment regarding PB and MB, where PB remains exactly as it is or you can choose the click +absorb and the mez protection gets moved to the toggles. I'm not keen on any of the other proposed changes.

I usually go with the ragnarok set minus the chance for KB and replace that with a KB-->KD sudden acceleration.

A lot has changed in the last decade with colocation service levels.

Yay on the quick restoration! Great job, devs! I'm very curious as to what was the root cause.

Claws. You've already done bio and rad armors, so go for the untouchable blender of doom that is claws/sr.

Pics. I want a Maine Coon so bad. English Mastiff was my favorite dog so far. Figure MC would be right up my alley.

I rather enjoy runnin repeatables in DA.

I have one tanking tank. Inv/Ice. All the rest are scrankers.

Ouch! Heal fast. 48 here. Feel 55. Big bro Green Dwarf is 57. No clue how old he feels.

If you ever get a hankerin for a tank, try claws there. Just... trust me on this.

I'm ok with that. You wouldn't be the first to question my grasp on sanity. This is why more choices is always the best course of action. It's why Sent SR was done correctly. People have the choice to go with either a click that adds absorption, thus radically improving SR's survivability and making mez protection passive, or to continue on with a click mez protection for... reasons.

That's only true for stalker claws.

The only change I'd like to see for claws would be for eviscerate to be given swipe's original animation (cat going insane on scratching post) as an alternate choice.

I really should take this to heart. Playing SR for as long as I have has me always chasing positional defense.

Nice. Thanks, everyone!

Oh, the horrors you must have seen. Bless your heart.

If I load up a Dark Servant (or some other pet the like) with Chance for +Damage procs, will those procs attempt to fire off whenever the pet uses any of its powers?
