I feel like the Carnies/Malta scenario isn't a very good one. Almost every build is going to struggle in such a scenario regardless of AT.

ITF and soloing Silver Mantis are good examples. As far as I'm concerned, it's the reason SD is so good.

They absolutely make sense. If you don't like them, don't use them.

I disagree, that stacking DDR is amazing and it's what puts Shield Defense over the top. There is good info in this thread

Gonna have to disagree here. Ice/Fire is a good example as that combo extremely complementary. Various slows and knockdowns to keep things either away from you or in your burn/hot feet patch. Sure if somebody wants to remain strictly at range not all secondaries complement that specific play style. But that means those secondaries don't complement that specific player, at that point the primary doesn't really matter. And that's ok, nothing wrong someone not caring for the way a powerset plays.

Nyghtmaire's reply is on point, but I wanted to touch on this specifically. While Domination is up the bar stays full and never recharges. If you have the recharge to make it perma the bar will never move. Anytime Domination expires the bar completely drains and you have to build it from the start.

This is true, but it is super easy mode.

I'm not ignorant of how it works.

I'm not a fan of definitions that include a variation of the word being defined.

I took Provoke on my Arch/Time Blaster, so I think the solution is more taunt for everyone, not less.

All secondaries also have some sort of additional endurance and regen to help keep you alive and constantly attacking among other various buffs. There's also generally some sort of crowd control power like an immobilize, hold, patch, end drain, etc. They are all about helping you stay alive longer, and part of that is punching people really hard in melee.

You can also stack them, and with the added DDR in the Shield version, that's definitely a significant buff. I like it as is, but again it wouldn't bother me if given the option proposed. Unless that means click mez protections have any negative adjustments to compensate for the added convenience of an additional free auto fire power.

I actually ended up getting a WM/WP to 50 and built up and it's awesome.

We tried that already and it just led to Tankers making people wait while they herded large groups of enemies. I'd rather see the entire AT removed before we go back to that. edit: To be clear, I don't want Tankers removed.

I second stone attacks, my Earth Assault Dom attacks feel extremely powerful, especially since I use the movement effect that breaks the ground as I walk.

Actually now I'd rather have the ability to use the power analyzer on people.

To be clear, I'm not laughing at you, but with you. I've done this myself and other similar things. I'm just glad I'm not the only one lol.

What would be the benefit to such a suggestion?

I wouldn't be mad if it happens, but I also don't think it's necessary. I feel it's part of the cost of a power and I'm good with that. I keep the mez on auto and manually fire hasten. My thinking is if Hasten drops and I didn't notice, then it likely wasn't needed much at all at that moment. So I prefer it to remain as is, but again I wouldn't be upset if such a thing were to be implemented assuming there was no negative changes to such powers to balance out the new convenience.

I already pointed out when you intentionally misrepresented what I said. It's all there on this page.

Well yeah, I pointed that out a few posts ago. Also pointed out what you were thinking somewhere on the last few pages. So been there, done that.

Your disapproval of farm builds is in your post history, you said that yourself. And me pointing out you lying isn't speaking for you, just demonstrating a verifiable fact from posts on this page.

See being disingenuous again. I didn't say those builds were exploitative, I said content was made to exploit them. You just intentionally misrepresented what I said. It's cool you disagree, but your word would carry more weight if you were honest.

Yes That's absolutely what I'm doing. You disapprove of farming builds entirely, so a logical(and correct) conclusion is you disapprove of content specifically made to take advantage of/exploit such builds. I already know what you think.

The person you responded to absolutely knows this, they are one of the people that is opposed to farming. Their objections and points the last few pages are disingenuous seeing as how they are actually one of the people we are talking about.
