Infinitum

For AVs and hard targets yes only TF FET But All I was stating was in a saturated mission environment mixing FET and FPC yields really good results because its immediately repeatable.

ET will drop just about any Lieutenant, so drop one hit 6, drop 1 hit 6 - its effective and repeatable.

Its useful if you have both PC and ET on a stalker, PC feels really good on the stalker when surrounded, you can run FET then PC to consume the stacks and mobs melt. AS - TF - FET - EP - AS - EP - PC - EP - AS usually i get too excited and mess that all up and it still works lol

You can edit mids easily for the tank brute stalker changes, but adding the scrapper its easier to just use STJ because its almost identical to how scrapper EM is. I think they need to know what it will be on live HC first before they will update.

Why yes, yes I did. :-) you have to use STJ in place of EM though cause it doesnt exist on mids yet.

On IOs it's there, and it's within 10s of every set around it. The test is more for balance of all sets than testing 1 specific set. For instance different primary, secondary preferences may pair better. WP is across the board in the middle.

As with any of those sets that number would go up with better enh and sets. It is a ST set so to maximize your takedown power you need a good portion of recharge, and for my tastes I like to maximize survivability. Like Rep stated its within a few seconds of a good many other sets in that test - which is actually good because the melee sets are pretty darn balanced at this point with a few outliers at the bottom needing a buff IMO.

I'm not really sure how that relates to EM - because its a lot easier than any of those.

No, that was a mission simulator on SOs. If you look back - my pylon number are pretty darn good and I'm not building for max dmg. I think the unique take for a TF Crit on EM is you have the option for the best dpa attack in the game twice in the matter of seconds in fast ET. The overall number doesnt matter if you are getting max DPS or DPA. Even old EM wouldn't keep up with the max burst number of GPB on insight with a crit, but you also dont get locked out of focus like you do insight on GPB. With focus you can literally do it as fast as you can recharge TF.

I play DB, and STJ and new EM really isn't anything like them. DB you HAVE to attack in a certain order or you dont get a bonus across 3- attacks. STJ you HAVE to lead with potentially weaker attacks at least 3 times to get max combo for the big hitters.

Did you happen to see my pylon clear times? And again pylon isn't the end all be all, because my EM EA scrapper clears the infernal mission faster than my Stalker, but the stalker has a better pylon time. Kinda like GBs office scenario, it can't be the best AT everything - then you have another TW situation. If he could only learn to slot WP.... ;-) I think thats also the cool thing about the new EM - its very versatile, and it plays a bit differently across all 4 ATs - very much not cookie cutter - which I honestly wish was a sentiment that was expanded more with other powersets. Cause you really want each powerset to feel unique when you play it on a different AT.

No, I just didn't have room in the build and opted for PC instead.

You dont have to, i did because i couldnt fit it in, and i wanted the utility of having PC as an aoe cause stalker EM previously had no aoe. I am a conservative builder - survivability first - so i just couldnt fit BS in the build as i wanted it to be. Even conservative im hitting pylons at near the minute mark sometimes. averaging in the 1:40s which all depends on how your hide procs and the BU proc fires. I would imagine if you could fit it in, and adapted BS in the attack chain it would further lower those times.

Yeah and its not awful on them honestly, but What they gain is from what they already have, Fury, high dmg cap. Stalkers get ST love, tankers get a mix off st and aoe Scrappers get ST that gets set up by AOE use. Thats my perspective anyway.

I think brute is the AT that got the least out of the changes, but if a talented brute can get to their dmg cap it could get nutty.

Go back and read.

Those were tanker numbers. I need to record my stalker numbers. I'll get something for you soon.

What AT?

Keep staring at your power tray to see when Build up is avail.

Yes ive gotten 1100+ on TF and 1400+ on ET on my fire EM tank.

Your the one that said it, go back and read.

You... Are.... Getting all that. Its so shortsighted to want to give up the rest of what this gives to have something that wouldnt even make the set relevant. When what you want is there, its just not exactly what you want.

You don't have to look at the power tray to play this, its not that hard. LoL if it is that hard for you original EM was too hard for you too.

Thats the thing about the objections I don't get, the words have to and essential are being thrown about like gospel truth. But even without any of the optimization from top to bottom the set is improved.

Its not even inconvenient when its a power you are going to use anyway.
