Troo

I can see what you are suggesting though it seems similar to what I'm already doing. The damage over time being the additional attacks by targets if not defeated. Question: Are you using Dull Pain for the +Max HP? My favorite character is an Energy Melee/Regeneration Stalker. I have played Regeneration on a number of high level Brute combos, never on a Scrapper. Regeneration rewards timing and situational awareness. Keeping track of different incoming debuffs and different activations. It is more work. It plays different and is not for everyone. A regen can regularly engage 1 or 2 times the target cap solo. The HP bar jumps all over the place. I love it. There are lots of ways to play a Regeneration character. Common are Reactive and Proactive styles. Proactive being the use of Regeneration powers before they are needed. This is in my opinion is a safer way to play. perma Dull Pain (keeping it active at all times for the +Max HP) Instant Healing before a big encounter MoG for alphas Reactive being the use of regen powers at semi optimal points to maximize each use. This is in my opinion the razor's edge and squeezes a bit more out of it. Dull Pain at 60-70% health to maximize on demand healing Instant Healing as an 'oh shit' Regardless having a plan to get out of trouble or at least having a feel for when it might not be a good idea to queue up a 3 second attack is again rewarded by Regeneration. Here's a Brute build with survivability in mind: lvl 35 IOs and non-superior ATOs that has perma Dull Pain, approaches perma Hasten, has 43% melee def, and some res. Lots of room to improve with upgraded enhancements and incarnates. Brute (Katana - Regeneration) lvl 35s.mxd Other tidbits:

Why not populate one of the invasion events ala Brigg's Comic Con theme?

A giant version of Troo invading Talos Island?!! but red with horns, hooves, a tail and glowie pom poms.

Hey that's the Ohio state flower.

The upgrade/update appears to have whacked several areas, likely unintentionally. I didn't see a mention from @Cipher of any intended changes other than addressing the spam. I don't know that the reputation, calendar or others changes were desired.

new badges come out next month, don't worry.

I think it's Brawl

6-12 per account in a super group it could be down right cheap. 3 accounts x 10 players x 10 merits = 300 which possibly equals 3 things that cost 8M. Folks would figure out how to abuse it pretty quickly. Some $$ sinks still sound like a good idea.

might have to look at willpower and axe separately but they are there. willpower battle axe

I am unaware of any requirement to 'see' some fires in Mercy. There is usually some wrecked building on fire. Find a double or triple fire (typically on a roof of a wrecked building) and figure out how to Rest without getting interrupted (there are a number of ways). I like to have a full tray of medium greens and use them as needed. (forgot this i no longer an option) It's never taken a week, but then I don't bother until I'm around level 30. Here's a lvl 1 with no missions completed The view from the bottom of the elevators yummy

@Doc_Scorpion the ratio of posts to reputation was typically helpful for me at least as a gauge. Alone both are basically useless. @roleki you may be spot on regarding self policing..

Procs, an Epic and Incarnates will likely be your next evolution to get you where you hope to go. Specific to your question (quotes are from the linked below) "Note that all of your attacks here will do way more damage now that they are properly procced. You don't have to go all proc monster, but it is worth carefully considering where your most powerful procs will go and ensuring they make an impact. This includes the ATO procs as well." "One excellent facet of War Mace is that is doesn't need an epic aoe at all. It has a full chain in whirling >crowd control >shatter, though shatter requires a little positioning. It's part of the charm." It's has some nuggets in the discussion. Also some good reading:

You are correct. Since AoE typically was used to represent Area of Effect. ArcheType Origin Enhancements became represented by ATO. Fun Fact: They were Archetype Enhancements but AE was also confusing for some reason. To answer your slotting question, I'd +1 TwoZeroFoxtrot's response.

woot 187 188 189 190 so close !!

Never did make it to my goal of 200 thumbdowns sooo.. wat evah.. Counts were at least indicative of participation as opposed to: Meanwhile, the "Posts" count has never been correct, it's actually showing "Content" count. I've presumed it also includes image uploads, file uploads, etc.. ( posts as of today, not 4.5k ) I do miss my "Above the Law" title 😞

I wouldn't plan on different versions of the program behaving. Different versions.

two nailed it.

So combined with decent def and resists I'm hoping to avoid needing to chase more defense. Running Darkest Night over the top of something like the example damage focused build below. (It's a little skinny on end so may need to continue tweaking) A simple 100 incoming damage needs to get past the -23 ToHit, then the ~35% Def. (getting hit even 25% of the time is better than 95%, but for DDR) then the -Dam, and finally the resistance.

maybe too obvious.. http://www.cityofheroes.ca/global/includes/images/Issues/issue-3/screenshots/thumbs/kheldian_shapeshifter.jpg

I don't think combinations of controller buttons is supported HOWEVER buttons on the controller can = slots in our power tray. So if I had a fancy macro I could set up as one of the slots and activate it with the controller. If that doesn't make sense I can go into more detail. The best thing about using a controller is the movement and looking around is so smooth.

I'll check it out. I had to shelve my controllers and use a Logitech one which is awful.

@aethereal thats a good way to look at it for general purposes
