I had a little trouble with this as well. The advice I got = Do not put it in the power you want to use when Crit Strikes procs. Put it in the power before. With Energy Melee on Stalkers a crit in Total Focus provides two Focused Energy (2 fast ETs). If this is the same for Scrappers I would not put it in Total Focus. (I think I got that right) Anyway good luck @Camel And here is the discussion that showed me where to place it on a scrapper:

I did ask for thoughts.

@biostem I thought you nailed it with "If you can suspend your disbelief for one, then you can do so for the other.." @Zombra Do you have a microwave? A cell phone? Use wi-fi? Been on an airplane? Have any remote controls? Live inside? Spend any time on a computer? Drink water? Breathe air? Have electricity? Basically if you live on earth you are being exposed all sorts of radiation nearly all the time. Not so fun fact: Did you know Grand Central station potentially exposes visitors to more radiation than nuclear facilities are allowed to emit?

(I love getting to use this)

epeening in public can result in nerfs.. just saying.

Hopefully you meant that as an April fools prank..

Positron Secret Identity: Doctor Raymond Keyes Origin: Technolgy Archetype: Defender Primary Powers: Radiation Emission Secondary Powers: Radiation Blast Other Powers: Flight Signature Power: Overcharge also, its a game.

I'm also okay with them having different values. I would not propose a guaranteed drop of choice, just a better chance at getting something useful. This suggestion wouldn't change their value but merely adjust the drop chance based on the data points provided by that value. It's just my opinion but it seems like a reasonable suggestion to consider.

Good suggestion.

Understanding that "the spaghetti code" does not allow making Hamidon Origin Enhancements convertible, I would suggest modifying the drop tables to reflect current needs/value and revisiting it from time to time. There a pretty wide range in value / usefulness for the same reward roll. Convertors leveled this out for IOs. I am not suggesting taking this to the extreme just small adjustments to give folks a better chance to get what they are hoping for at the reward roll. The odds of getting say 3 Nucleolus's in ten runs is incredibly low. The odds of getting 9 (which isn't an uncommon goal for me).. I'll leave that to the maths folks. If I am using HOs on a character I am using level 53s. Since I can afford them but refuse to buy a 53 for 4-5x the cost of a 50, that means I am at times consuming three of the more desirable HOs which doesn't quite seem fair for others just trying to get one. Thoughts?

Why are these so expensive on the black market?

Faster than a spines fire.. solo.. might be able to. After all corruptors are the best all rounders. Gonna need something to take aggro though with lots of targets there is going to be spill over. Also, a setup might only be good for one run then there would be long cool downs before attempting again. The reason /fire brutes are popular is because they can cap fire defense and resistance while doing good damage. They can rinse and repeat very quickly. If you are looking to team with others the a Fire/Kin might be a great choice.

This was an April first topic. I hope you enjoyed.

Do not click that harmless link.. ever. While knowledge is power, curiosity killed the cat, and fun.

Thanks for checking back. More details: Link

We don't have to like it but that's the story. MCU Steve Rogers handed Sam Wilson the Captain America shield in Avengers: Endgame... Wilson rejected the shield, believing he was unfit for the job of Captain America. The U.S. government appointed its own replacement in John Walker, who went on to brutally kill one of his foes. That led Wilson to reclaim the Captain America mantle. Steve Rogers retired from heroics and left his mantle to Sam Wilson. He picked Sam. Meanwhile, January 2015 (Avengers: Endgame released in 2019) All-New Captain America #1 (legacy number: Captain America #664) Avengers: Endgame Old Steve Rogers : Try it on. Sam Wilson picks up the shield. Old Steve Rogers : How does it feel? Sam Wilson : Like it's someone else's. Old Steve Rogers : It isn't.

27-32-33 ( Defender - Kinetics - Dual Pistols ) it's the same AT and power sets backwards and forward, seems like fate. other rolls: 95 ( Widow ) been there, and they are amazing 43-31-29 ( Mastermind - Mercenaries - Force Field ) welp, looks like I am rolling a Defender

Fixed this for you Ciph!

"a character can benefit from up to five FOUR global benefits of Luck of the Gambler: Defense/Increased Recharge Speed, which gives a global +7.5% bonus to Recharge Rate" "While a character can slot the same (full or partial) set multiple times in different powers, they cannot benefit from more than five FOUR copies of each named set bonus of the exact same attribute and amount. This is a stronger restriction than simply being limiting to five FOUR copies of each set. It means that if two different sets give the same size bonus to the same thing, the character can't get more than 5x 4x that bonus even if they use a mix of sets." https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Enhancement_Set_Bonuses#The_Law_of_Fives

Not a bad suggestion.. other than the same same lose all the uniqueness's. Is it akin to saying an Elec/Rad Stalker has too many AoEs? Not really, though it takes variety to be able to plot stalker powersets on a scale of 'few' to 'many' AoEs. Other stalker sets with limited AoE examples: Ninja Blade has no AoE and one melee cone: Flashing Steel (7 foot 130°, 5 target cap) Broad Sword has no AoE and one melee cone: Slice (7 foot 130°, 5 target cap) Claws has no AoE, no melee cone, but a ranged cone at level 26 (30 foot 90°, 10 target cap) With pool powers, epics, and incarnates NO character really HAS to go without AoEs.

Gonna need to improve your search-fu. Be right back Rad Fire Brute (Fire) another Rad Fire Brute (Fire) Rad Rad Tanker (S/L) Lots of old builds here If there's interest in an overview of low budget farming or Spines/Fire

Tuesday!

@Rasset that's a nice twist. May have to do a One-Roll event. My favorite part of this event is seeing what folks get and if they are excited or begrudgingly trying something that they would not have picked!
