it’s a banger with the contagious conf proc in, though overall it does seem to be an odd mastery set for a dominator in my view. mostly redundant given permadoms have mez protection and already a good bag of controls. it competes with some very strong masteries i use the proc in my ST confuse on my mind/fire dom, procs quite regularly for some added chaos, one of the best procs out there for fun

no chilling embrace? sad ice armour noises it’s the pinnacle of the powerset

i agree - sirens call used to be amazing for PvP pre-IO. perhaps zone incentives could also be added, along with bonuses so people don’t take it so seriously - e.g rewards for dying X number of times

my ‘go to’ for introducing a classic CoH feel on TFs is to click enemies buffed, it really switches on the old game playstyles and has people cooperating quickly, even at +0

blasphemy! i have provoke even on my defender haha herding is a direct contributor to chaos, which is the purest way to play the game if people aren’t button mashing in panic i’m not interested

proper positioning and mob strategy is also a very effective survival technique, much more so than any IO set or power pool in my opinion unless you’re the lead tank for a team, then that goes out the window a bit 😛

wouldn’t that just be the original MLTF, the STF?

i knew the mega death rocket scooter could cause loss of life and limb, but i never thought it would be my life and limbs i would therefore like to request @Snarky for a refund

please keep arms and legs fully inside the mega death rocket scooter at all times to avoid loss of life and limb

i’ve always enjoyed soloing with my mind/fire dom, or soloing with a blaster back on live. playing with an AT without defense makes it much more strategic and fun from my experience

shameful - mods, ban this blasphemous spaghetti!

like snarky, i see posts where people have crazy amounts, tens of billions i tend to keep my main at about 1.98bn and store the rest (200-400m) in the AH. where i see a person on the forums who appears like they could use the support, i enjoy buying expensive procs or purple sets for people

the difference it makes in XP gain is so minimal it’s likely not even measurable unless the team was standing around watching each and every mob slowly kill themselves, it is a non issue

uh.. like, some sort of, archery set for blasters? would never happen

i think it’s balanced - if an AV is placated it’s not being attacked and quickly regenerating health, so there’s quite a large tradeoff to using the power

for high HP enemies like AVs and GMs, also consider the power of -regen as a significant aid also. it feels less relevant thesedays in the age of extreme damage, but still a useful helper

if you find a way to play on your phone, you should join a TF with @Snarky whilst figuring out the controls

i would drop one of assault/manuvers/tactics and pickup veng - always good to have on a defender. you’ll be outputting good def values to the team anyway, but the extra acc can be a lifesaver in some content

i assumed only the archived paragonwiki and CoH fandom (which i’m not a fan of the UI) existed the HC wiki looks great - clean interface and easy to navigate

ooh didn‘t know about this, i’ve always been using the archived paragonwiki

the confused xp scale works fine as it is in my view, never had a problem on my mind dom

i’ve played a kin/sonic defender for the last 3-4 years, the sonic changes were a big nerf to its ability to debuff, it’s still better than no debuff however. think i’d roll a kin/dark and slot for -acc if i was to do it again i don’t use sonic for assault but hear it’s a fair amount more damaging now

i thought all freakshow had a chance to rez if in melee range?

a lot of people rely on softcap builds posted by experienced players on the forum, copy it line for line then facetank every mob they come across without thinking about strategy, positioning etc all the gear no idea is the FOTM lately

i agree - i do like a bit of chaos and uncertainty, it’s where classic CoH re-emerges
