Yeah and nerf regen !

Sorry, i avoid such things to protect Homecoming, you know 😄

Beta EM is a "difficult" set compared to the average level of skill required for CoX, as Stj for instance, even harder on a stalker with the Crit fast AS mechanic. So people with 1 hour of "test" on grey Hellions in atlas will be 100% influenced by their old memories from live, years ago.

dont know if it s already point to you but there are graphic issues with TF with mystic flight. (i ll private the vid and there are no tags or title on the vid) EDIT : the tankers and brute EM need something compared to the double FC of stalkers and Scrappers

Scrapper - EM - Radiation Armor E27 beta.mxd Scortch => Energy Punch (Mélée) LVL 1 Fire Sword => Barrage (Mélée) LVL 1 Cremate => Bone Smasher (Mélée) LVL 2 Build up LVL 6 Breath of Fire => Power Crash (PBAOE) LVL 8 Confront LVL 12 Fire Sword Circle => Whirling Tickle (PBAOE) LVL 18 Incinerate => Total Focus (Mélée) LVL 26 Greater Fire Sword => Energy Transfer (Mélée) LVL 32 This is my test of this week end, this build can tank GM as Ghost of scrapyard (or solo a pylon and take hits of the dropship) and he s between 1m45ish and 2min on the pylon.

ty 🙂 I need it, 7th respec on the beta server on the same toon :x

Proc "balance" will be the end of SS "power" builds.

But EM for tankers and brute badly need something for them, Both stalker and scrapper can use double Energy Focus.

yeah i feel NRj as a the niche solution when SS will be nerf in a way of another

but EM dont buff "out of set" attack with SS rage : Gloom, Dark obli, rad therapy, ground zero, burn, Mu aoe and so on 😛 Edit : not to mention, the Soft cc of SS with the Hand clap / Foot stomp combo

My EM / Rad scrapper has "only" rad therapy and Fireball as aoe avoiding the poor EM aoe. She's between 1h30 to 2m in st pylon, but she can kill the pylon with agro of rikti 54 or bieng hit by the Dropship. She also solo the ghost of scrapyard without temporary powers.

100% agree, maybe giving an utility to the T1 and T2 would be better. I tested Beta EM on my fiery / EM tanker and it's fine : the "cost" of ET is a huge + on heavy end consum builds and/or armor with no or poor endurance management. But i feeled that Tankers and Brute could enjoy something too : Crit At can use both - regen - special AND fast ET. Tankers and Brutes could enjoy a boost to soft CC like having a chance to KD on Total Focus, Whirling hands and Pwer Crash + a 100% chance of stun with Energy focus. My EM/rad scrapper just solo the ghost of scrap with no temporary powers at all, stacking -250% regen on a scrapper is something to consider.

only in case of "crit" on TF, i think. Beta EM on stalker has more st dps than TW scrapper 🙂

Arf it removes the Attack set FX too 🙂

ho you talk about whirwing hands, ok my bad 🙂

it's the chance to crit.

that's great, Thank you ! But this supress ALL fx no ?

hey ! i took so many EC in my face in RV back to live that i knew the size of each boot of hero/heroine :x Now it's NOT yours only anymore ! HAHA ! 😛 @Bill Z Bubba and @Sovera have tons of posts about Claws cooked on lot of AT 🙂 check their history Yeah that 5% miss chance (and his counter part, the 5% chance to hit) are old fashion habit of MMO. a set / power or whatever ways to avoid this would be welcome, overpowered with the fight mechanic of CoX, but welcome. About stalker, in Pve, it's easy they almost never use the slow AS, just to open on an AV or to try the one/two shot on softer targets.

dam i had not read, 530 on a shield in single target only Oo grats lol Could you share the build pls ? 🙂 i could use it on a thematic toon 😛 (sort of Captain France :p)

then tank with a scrapper 😄

non criting scrapper ? no ty

Not to mention, Dragon tail is an awesome soft control, with a good / very good DPS ST attack set, now with kinda good debuff and a bit better multi target clearing...

and idk if you notice but mélée ST IO slot in EC will remain, so if you had "by chance" an hecatomb proc on your EC... 😄

So i tried EM on scrapper and stalker. The set is balanced, the DPS is kinda not bad, the clearing time is good. Nothing to mention. And i think it's the real issue that i feel till yesterday during the 10+ hours i spent with both EM stalker and scrapper : it's boring. Why play 2 classes make for fun critical and big bursts with an attack set ... with no critical. Sure the Stalker has very very good dps but all is flat. Flat and Boring. EM (on scrapper mainly) feels ... average good. Yeah it's the word, average good at best. No way to unleashed insane burst : it's clean, average and well balanced. But EM still has lost the crazyness and fun of his former glory. Tbh and with all due respects, i cannot stop thinking that you were too shy and / or afraid by something, maybe to create a new TW like monster, i dont know. Why spending so much of your precious time to proliferate an attack set with no offensive critical on a class with ATO and innate ability fully based on... critical ? In a world of Rend Armor, Crushing Uppercut with 3 stacks, Greater psi Blade, Clobber (and i forget a lot) criting with almost no limits, why keeping energy tranfer with a healing ability we dont need ? I 100% agree that energy mélée have the job done and it's even impressive the work done on EM. But i cant stop feeling that it lacks this little something that made players make :"WoW what the f...k was that, this was violent !" You did a good job, but being a bit more "crazy" seems necessary to me. Dont get me wrong, i dont cry for more damage or something, but more burst, more fun, more "omg" moments.
