Oh. On that front, I just don't see it as activating any power to regenerate. That's just the meta. Could be the healing going into overdrive, adrenaline boosting the healing.

I actually, feel Regeneration captures the Wolverine/Deadpool...characters that can regenerate more. Willpower can as well, but I just feel it more with Regeneration myself, which is why I want it to improve. I also feel adding the defense to Resilience keeps in line with them. Without going Spider-Man defense levels. This would allow people to build for more defense easier. I'd also still like to see Integration get a regeneration boost, at the very least allow us to actually enhance it.

I'd argue Wolverine and possibly Deadpool, have a bit of S/L resist outside of just their Regen abilities, especially Wolverine. 😛

I was doing that with a WP Scrapper. I'm not so sure it's the single AVs that's the issue, but the idea of being able to build up to 4/8 content.

Yes, but adding Incarnate Powers to the other secondaries allows the same thing really.

Love the pink pom poms. Miss the old Energy Melee. It never felt the same! I main WP/EM Tanker until they ruined Energy Melee. I didn't even mind the heightened animation time, I just didn't care for the animation. Been looking at making an EM/ Brute (Scrappers need EM!) just because I do love the pom pom animations 🙂 but some thoughts... If possible, give ET the Spinning Strike animation! Throw a kick in there, the feet don't need the pom poms! Doesn't even need the AOE, just a better (okay, it's opinion based) animation and faster! Total Focus...Crushing Uppercut. Maybe even lower both their recharges down to 15-18 seconds. Let us use them more! Though it could just be one of them. One of the things I loved about the set was it's ST focus. Got a PBAOE to feel like a bit of AOE was going on, and big hits! 🙂 Also the pom poms.

That's why I suggest the Defense. Allows Regen to build for a popular defense. With no -To-Hit or Defense Debuff, it'd be more about taking the alpha. As for it working with the theme of Regen, the set already has a defense power. Though, I'm also of the thought MoG and Resilience should give Resist/Defense to all damage types and defenses (positional and typed). Allowing Integration to actually be enhanceable in the regen area could also help.

I think we'd see more people take Ice Armor, if it had a no FX option. Ice Armor's FX hides the outfit and if they had a minimal FX option, it'd work with a lot more concepts. I know plenty of players who didn't want to touch Bio Armor (considered the best by many) until they learned it had a minimal FX option.

Wow. As someone who mains melee, I have no problem with it and enjoy it.

Is that new, because I recall the damage aura in the armors not critting on live.

Didn't need it to survive 4/8 content. Didn't need it to solo an ITF without Incarnate abilities. Nope, had enough survival that I didn't need to rely on a PBAOE knockdown with /WP.

While it may not be a concern, I have to wonder, would that make it more powerful in PvP? Isn't that reason Regen got nerfed so much to begin with?

Yes! As for what I'd like for Sentinels... Improve the tier 1 or 2, so they're both equal in use. Could be different in how they do it, but I always hate that I may have to use an inferior attack, if it has the better animation. 😞 For sure don't care for seeing the Passive tied to tier 1 or 2 choice.

With that combo, I'd think it's better on Brutes, due to two damage toggles. Scrappers don't crit, at least with the Armor ones, can't recall with Quills.

I like the defense option I suggested a bit more. But anything to help get the feeling of survival I can build for on many others. I felt my Fire Armor and building for Resists was more survivable.

Been trying to get Regen to feel as strong as I feel a lot of the other sets can feel, and when building them, I'm saddened that... 1) Integration doesn't actually benefit from Heal IOs 2) Instant Heal doesn't benefit from Heal IOs 3) Moment of Glory doesn't also give Positional Defenses ...and what I got to thinking, was maybe what Regen needed, that I don't imagine would impact PvP at all, but help in working up the defenses in PvE, is an equal amount of defense as resistance in Resilience. Also, give the set the Psi Resist/Defense in the Resist/Defense powers.

I put it in my StJ/Nin's Build Up recently, on a respec, but that's only because I found Adjusted Targeting bonuses were better for the build.

Looks to be overkill on the recovery and end red. Also, he could repeat the slotting of Stamina in Quick Recovery and have the Performance Shifter, or just +5ing two End Mods and not need the third.

StJ/Nin/Mu Tier 4 Preemptive Radial Flawless Interface Tier 4 Assault Radial Embodiment Hybrid Tier 4 Musculature Radial Paragon Alpha 5:24 (246.17 DPS) w/out Hybrid Toggled 3:57 (289.62 DPS) w/ Hybrid Toggled Crushing Uppercut > Heavy Blow > Shin Breaker > Rib Cracker > HB > SB > .608 Pause > Repeat I'd use Combat Readiness during that pause or my End Recovery Power. I do have Zapp, not sure if it would help. I don't have Hasten, and I'm thinking if I went Body I could put in Physical Perfection and Conserve Power. But, you know, wanted Zapp and Shackles for the concept and I like having the range and hold for LGTF.

Blinding Feint > Attack Vitals Combo > Repeat. Easy peasy. It's DPS is as consistent as every other sets, people just feel it's bad, because they may miss an attack in the combo. However, in the end, still averages out to the same. The combo can also make use of 2 purple sets (so two of the purple damage procs) and two -Resist Procs in the Attack Vitals Combo. I wouldn't even worry about Sweep Combo, though perhaps take the PBAOE attack for added AOE.

You have that build? I've been trying to work on a build that can survive more and still do good dps. I've been trying to go the Resist/Recharge route.

So, there doesn't seem to really be much of a change between using -HP Proc and using a Damage Proc like Preemptive.

Love the Vengeful Slice animation myself, it's the 1k Cuts I didn't care for. BF > Attack Vitals > Repeat worked very well for me on live and when I was looking it over, I believe it could be made to do even better now.

That's likely more because of many players wanting to be tough and self reliant, than relying on their team.

Done all Scrapper on all the regular TFs and Apex and Tin Mage. Always fun 🙂
