I may have to revisit INV. I think the last time I started an INV toon Unyielding locked you in place. That was my first Tanker. But I think INV would be pretty good the way it is now. Dark Melee would boost Invincibility/Tough Hide.

I am not going to say the Warriors are OP, but some powersets like Regeneration are not given the powers needed to to counter the speed of the Warrior's new Boss and Lt. attack rates until level 30 or so. At level 21 my Regen Scrapper is slaughtered by Warrior Bosses in under 10 seconds usually. You really need to hit a near full slotted Dull Pain as the battle starts to have time to get off a fully slotted Reconstruction even with slotted Resilience. I don't have major problems with Warrior bosses with any other powersets or archetypes so maybe it is Regen that is nerfed too much for low level Content in it's present form? Although Regen can defeat Family mobs/Bosses with the same challenge level as other powersets. You can say don't compare powersets at low levels, but the game should be shaping up better by the early 20's also. Anyway, been playing since the old days, new Warriors vs Regeneration Scrappers is a mismatch. I feel more like a 2004 Blaster than a Scrapper. Of course there is plenty of other 'scrappy' stuff to do. 😉

Kinetic Melee is too slow or too weak for a Scrapper. Feels like a Tanker with half the armor. Looks good on paper so maybe it's the animations. Repulsing Torrent is a good interrupter, but you still get overwhelmed by mobs which seem to take too many attacks to put down. Even Freakshow which should be weak to Kinetic attacks. I'll keep leveling it though.

I certainly like the gameplay with Tri-Cannon. Keep that as is. Maybe it would be possible to switch the Tri-Cannon to a robot at the tailor. We can't do that yet on any archetype as far as I know, maybe something to consider for the future. I guess I'll get robot pet after level 50 for my character concept.

I would feel more like other Controllers/Dominators with a special pet. Assault Bot or similar would do this. Maybe include it as a power appearance selection at the tailor like your rifle's appearance.

Please not the Auto Cannon power from Devices. No one takes that. If they do they never use it. City of Heroes has evolved such good pets over the years, have Tri-Cannon be some kind of robot. It can do the same damage and even be called Tri-Cannon, just not the Auto-Cannon animation. What kind of Pet is that for a Dominator or Controller in City of Heroes 2024? Also, are those damage figures right for Trip Mine? They seem too low in the pip.

Thanks! I see how the patching works now. Got it working!

I tried Mids version 3.5.5.7 from loadedcamel, but looks very old. No Sentinel AT, no Blaster Ninjitsu, etc. Errors on start. I have the old Mid's Reborn on my older PC. Is that going to be it?

Seems like Cortex didn't count towards the Epidemiologist accolade for me in the Graveyard Shift TF. I was missing one before fighting Cortex and still missing one after the TF completed and I had defeated Cortex. I am not repeating Graveyard Shift anytime soon. Can someone link the locations of the the Graveyard Shift bosses in the Abandon Sewer Network?

Add Seishinteki Kyoyo to Ninjitsu. You could drop Caltrops. I never even take Caltrops, when I did I never had the need to use them. You force me to take Unrelenting by dropping Seishinteki Kyoyo from Stalker Ninjitsu.

Seems to be a bug then.

I ran into something I didn't understand; when slotting Venmous Gas for range it listed as PBAoE range 70 boosted to 84. something. What is being boosted to 84 feet? I am wondering if Dual Pistols is Bugged somehow with Poison. I have never seen it so weak even when fully slotted with IO's for damage and now running Assault as well. I have other Corrupters with Dual Pistols and they all fair pretty well. As far as chains, I shoot whatever is ready unless I need AoE specifically. Getting Stunned all the time even with Scorpion Armor and Defense around 26 percent base.

Sorry, at level 40 I just have a rudimentary build of power choices on Mid's. Damage powers all have damage maxxed, got all those except pistols. Have all powers in Poison. Venomous Cloud had 2x Endurance Reduction and 2x ToHit Debuff IO's, though I get stunned for sure at that range. I got that -1lvl Gunslinger boss by popping 3x Luck, 1x Righteous Rage, followed by 2x Phenomenal Luck, 1x Resurgence, 1x Emerge when I was stunned and almost went to hospital again. Are we playing the same game? Maybe you folks didn't solo much at level 40? Scorpion Armor will help with all the purple inspiration consumption once I get it. But I do thank you all.

Oops! Just died to a -1lvl Gunslinger boss on the 'Find Info on Quatrexin' mission. Stunned first of course. Obviously I am after the Scorpion Armor, but am I supposed to take 3 purple inspirations for each -1lvl boss until then? I have the Steadfast Protection Defense IO and Shield Wall resist 5% IO. I almost never level up through the Mission Architect XP farms. I prefer normal content even though it is slower. I really don't see how anyone could accept Poison as functional at level 40 for solo missions. Which you always need to do sometimes. Unbroken badge just now. And died again to same -1 lvl Gunslinger boss. :0

It's a low level issue. There is no way the toon could run all 3 Leadership toggles at level 40. It can't even run Dark Armor and Stealth and get through a mission boss battle. The wimpy Crey Scorpion Armor bosses in the current case. They send my Pistols/Poison corrupter to the hospital almost every time. For now I will get through the solo content on -1 level which I never had to do before. It could be a Lethal Damage issue. The build is good. Most new players would not have a build this good.
