Wavicle

It's valuable in most of the high level content. It's not valuable in PI Radios and the like, but that really isn't high level content.

Ah well, that's my mistake then. My first toon, and still one of my favorites, is an Energy/Energy Blaster. With her build getting very good I am now able to cast Energize REACTIVELY. I no longer need it up all the time. But regardless of that, putting that ability on auto absolutely cuts heavily into DPS and is a big mistake, don't do that.

Those same qualities also give them advantages. Please correct me if I'm wrong, my understanding was that the toggles suppress if you get mezzed, while the click powers don't. And aside from Energize the other clicks also are useful in other ways besides just the sustain, providing mez, soft control, or something else.

What's the problem? They are all either perma out of the box or easily permaable, and the one (Energize) that isn't perma gets other advantages (the End Discount is EXTREMELY powerful, and the click gives you a Heal in addition to +Regen).

No, that's your assumption. He did not say how it would be changed.

I don't agree. As I pointed out before, the Absorbs ALSO have debuffs attached (Reaction Time, Frigid Protection), come in a set that ALSO gets a heal (Inner Will) or also gets additional powerful aoe mitigation effects (Ice Patch, Time Shift, Spore Cloud). Seriously, the argument that (lol) Temporal, Plant, Ice, and Martial Combat are disadvantageously squishier than other blasters is crazy. Those are some of the strongest blaster secondaries for self protection.

But it’s not supposed to spare you the damage of big hits. It’s supposed to help you avoid death by a thousand cuts. The regen powers do LESS to spare you big hits.

It is baseless. Nothing Number Six said suggests or implies that it’s going to radically alter the set to be completely unrecognizable. That was all you.

This is a claim with no justification supplied.

I really like TA, but in this case I think Illusions is what's pulling the weight.

Leaving Sentinels aside, we’re talking about power sets, not ATs, for the most part.

This is great. Game balance is important for the same reason why Justice League sucked.

Just telling people to accept that their power set isn’t capable of performing at nearly the same level as others also isn’t solution.

I think in Incarnate content the pets are all your level, someone please correct me if I’m wrong.

I think you forgot one thing: SOON IT WILL BE GONE TO THE AMERICANS!

An exaggeration, but not without some truth to it. And this seems to be exactly what they said they hope to address.

This is the clearest demonstration of the inaccuracy that keeps getting repeated here.

And they still are. Sentinels are far tougher than Blasters.

I was exaggerating to make a point. They didn’t suck, but they are Way more fun and less prone to sucking floor since the buffs to Snipers, Nukes, and Sustain.

So you want them to suck like they did before. No.

No.

I agree. That doesn’t mean that some couldn’t use a little help, but yes.

There is a balance to be struck between not needing any one thing in particular and everybody being valuable to the group.

Careful friends, if you wring your hands too much they'll fall off, and then how will you play City of Heroes?

unfortunately, yes, I think it is. doesn't mean it couldn't be changed.
