... have you seen the state of our planet? Pretty sure we don't need a thread or charts or any further data points.

My preferred slotting for most heals/absorbs/hp buffs is Heal/Recharge from Doctored Wounds, Numina and Preventative Medicine. I'm sure there's better slotting out there as that only gets the heal/absorb/recharge to 74.28% but I've found that's generally good enough.

You do know some people actually play from 1 to 50 where that's 100% useless, right?

Exactly.

I'm eternally baffled by those that think the taunt aura discussion has anything to do with laziness.

Then again, breaking something without fixing it is ABSOLUTELY negligence.

I didn't assign malice. Screwing up by making a change isn't malicious.

Wait... what? +HP automatically means +regen. Regen with True Grit in the build and slotted, my regen is at 1893%. Yank the power from the build entirely and my regen drops to 1861%. Edit: I'm going from my SR days. More HP means more Regen. Full stop. Maybe it ain't much, but it's the HP AND Regen that keeps me afloat on top of the scaling damres and defense.

And yet they exacerbated the flee code without logical reason.

How dare?!?!!?? Oh wait... honestly, that's kinda good use of a necro. 🙂

Isn't there a badge for taking out Neuron first?

My earth/earth dom suffered heavily at any attempt to solo the ITF until I was told to spam earthquake and quicksand. Doing so was game changing for me.

The team needs to reconsider their opinion on this topic.

You're still doing it wrong. Being evil while being viewed as a hero means I do evil better.

Not quite. All the Sentinel armors were tweaked so none of them are a straight 1 to 1 comparison and Sents have vastly less base HP. That said, being able to hover-blast with an armor set at all means Sentinels are tough as fuckin nails and built in mez protection means you don't suffer the pain every other ranged character feels for the majority of its life from 1 to 50. I honestly have no insight on the other topics other than this: My time/fire defender continues to surprise me with her survivability in melee or otherwise. She's a damn monster. I'll also give a nod to anything earth control, either controller or dominator but those are very late bloomers unlike sentinels.

No melee but easy soloing with AoEs? My Fire/Bio Sentinel is one of my most played characters. He was an absolutely breeze from 1 to 50 and now fully kitted out, he can hang well with blasters, not so much on kill speed but his extra survivability means he spends far less time running away with his tail between his legs.

That's not even remotely what I do when people lick me.

And Nrg aura with Entropic Aura.

I can't tell you how many verbose diatribes on various issued I've wanted to spew forth on these forums in the guise of game topics. Somehow... I've always managed to avoid them regardless of inebriation status.

THIS is scrapping.

I hate those things but no more than I hate knowing my taxes go toward making rich politicians richer. Edit: And don't even get me started on the grifting scams that are religion and insurance. It's a damn good thing we don't have base raids anymore. Can you imagine the insurance fee for automatic rebuilds?

Correction: They spend their time gaming the system to become far richer than anyone ever needs to be. Folks do it in real life as well. I mean, c'mon, if people weren't running around artificially increasing the "worth" of things by grifting every system possible, everyone would have what they need. Can't have that happening now, can we? What fun is existence if you can't look down on the have-nots?

Beer.

Cuz some of us are so OCD that just knowing they're still in the powers list is too much. I'm still annoyed that I can't permanently purge that one prestige power slide thing.
