    hm... so I can't tell properly @Onlyasandwich - the monsters in perigrine in my quick test didn't live long enough... /dark I'm not so sure of.. solo on brainstorm everything I do makes me compare it to /fire... however, I think /dark assault might be a good idea, that whole contributing layered -tohit. symphony pet - I am not impressed... but it shows promise if it doesn't die a lot (which I don't know). the delay on recast of aoe stuff is VERY DELAYED, to the point where its going to not do much in groups. it is nice to have the echo on things like cone sleep, and its quicker for single target echo, or was as I noticed. I think when things are chaotic, it'd be useful as support /dark 'dark servant' is nice for what it goes about doing (despite having to repeatedly summon it on loop, which is annoying) ....the ULTIMATE /xyz assault to go with symphony.... not sure yet, its definately one that lets you stand back with the cones. dark seems decent as I end with 1x good melee, a life drain, powerboost, negative dmg, -tohit, a press pbaoe, a crap cone (nightfall is skinny) that does OK damage, and a good ST ranged attack chain. in my build I could probably drop the ST confuse for disruptor blast in scorpion shield, for procc'd aoe. i have too many ST abilities with my recharge to not have either that or lifedrain sitting unused. its thematic tho... I'm calling him 'Eldrich Figs' - i dunno if i'd be better dark/dark...

    i want prisms! and... i want pvp! i want hot buttered porridge, and clay jars of raw honey! I want hairy lichen on the trees, silver birch by a beach cliff, and salt in the air. but all i hear is skill issue. you should git gud. -- honoroit

    you dont think lady liberty would fight back in such an implementation, like npcs get zapped, or that gankers would do well against ppd lasers? but 'could' it happen? sure. someone 'might' be able to solo org as ally.

    maybe @Neiska is missing 'server flag' in my commentry on open pvp, like pvp vs pve servers in other games. hence, people interested in pvp (open world) would (likely) move characters there. and so, youd be less bothered, no?

    wouldnt people have innertube beach parties, or film exotic rp gmvs along the coasts of a deserted pvp zone? 🤔 thatd be appreciated, they could all wait nicely in line to get shivan kills or whatever it is one does for badges, and thered not be a baddy about to attack. just peace, cosplay, and level auto-conn'd mobs that grant pretty good xp compared to regular street hunting. all the pvpers would be busy being attacked on their new characters by the p2w lady in atlas, and loving it.

    excelsior, huh? so theyre junked up all no pain. makes sense, crazy grins and that. theres superdine for trolls.... there should be a street drugs of paragon (and rogue isles) page on the wiki. purely for academic purposes, of course. what other ones are there i wonder.

    ill test it on beta. the way the ability is worded it does damage for the duration of the stun... i think... the in game description (in character designer) strangley has the words 'when target is awake'?? but the extended description talks about doing damage while stunned. so my simple thought, make that really long at mag 6.

    on dom tho? could not agree more with your thoughts on dark affinity for controller! bit, rather id hope the powerboost in dark assault would work to extend the stun on confounding, which extends its dot (or so the tooltip says) the same can be achieved with jowling twilight and dark affinity, and im sure its quite good. but dom tho 🙂

    my thought was the pvpers would banish themselves all to a flagged server, and everything would be wonderous for everybody. the pvpers would pvp, and pve too, they do that... and the 'i hate pvp' people would be free to listen to the empty wind on the shores at sirens call. i know there was/is a 'pvp server' in so much as theres an official RP server... but i think that melted. one thing of note, theres been an upsurge of red side this last week. i want to join in but i need 1150MM inf to be able to make a symphony/dark dom or other something-i-better-be-damned-sure-about... no cosplay, no new character... so im trapped in the tunnels, again.

    does this look decent?? Figs the warlock! symphony / dark, which seems like it might be quite a pita for monsters. Figs the warlock.mbd

    !pvp is wonderful! a forced flag SERVER OPTION would be pretty great i think. thatd open stuff like pvp in hazard zones, or, gasp, atlas park thats not rv. in ffxi, where, as with homecoming, i was also extra famous -- the first NA summoner to obtain fenrir...at level 60... we only had kickball for pvp, and i ran a taxi service, and did indeed dance for gil in jeuno, kupo.

    or cyberpunk maelstroms.

    if bad lady, clamor, is anything to go by, and she holds up her stockings with safety pins into her legs(!), those suits do not come off.
  14. honoroit
    your reading my mind, kupo! i would love nothing more than for everybody to be (forced, as a server option) to enjoy pvp with further integration in the game, and indeed with existing opportunity that exists. i dont think the OP (me) intended the thread as a learning resource enumeration, or assessment of need therein amongst new player community. but i would definately support such contribution. anything that makes more pvp, and ideally drops more prisms - are my selfish intents.

    i dont even know how to start one. my play loop is 1-50, and through the incarnate unlocks if i like the character. then its typically, dismantle them, drag them off the first 2 pages of characters, and begin again. so my accrual potential, outside farm for cash, is very low.
  16. honoroit
    imo, never take the epp pets, for reasons above. categorically terrible. they die in a heartbeat at +4/8. if you really need slot diversity that can only come from pet/long-recharge-pet set ios, one might suppose. but you probably don't.

    blaster/corruptor (enough support) tanker / brute (tank range and cap) scrapper (sort of) / stalker (sort of) controller - aside from illu/dark for false tank, excludable dominator - fun, but excludable sentinel - wont even make one veats - fortunata can be ok, excludable, can argue improved leaderships heats - fun, excludable so, were left with 6ish optimal AT. in todays meta. cc classes need more damage, it really is horrific. can you fire/kin controller? yes, but you can fire/kin corruptor and be better. can you xyz/dark affinity controller - its unique, but dmg is subpar. hence illu/dark. defender?? if you insist. but aside from niche in storm summoning, where youve nerfed yourself compared to support rile sets, or the possible exception of poison... excludable. i dont know how to fix that, but to me seems the meta right now.

    the mids picture saying 'inherits blah' is confusing when read, but to my awareness, it does NOT snap calculate damage at time of summon in a way that reflects your current damage % boost. summon at 0% damage boost does same damage as summon at 300%. id love to be wrong about this. (psst - illu/dark - you have a taunter immune, you make things bad for mobs, you can heal, and have best rez)

    if it brings people to the zones to pvp, and engages others as lure, and if.... it drops bloody prisms outside less than 5 activities at a rate >2/hr, sounds good to me!

    theres so few of us, itd be crystal clear. hmm, whats that cluster of n people in zone xyz engaging in multibox behaior 123. oh, its these n accounts. talk to them, if you want to jiggle the player(s) / verify. maybe theyve hooked up chatgpt or ilk to their multibox? maybe. more likely, admins know who does what, generally. what stops bans, might only be weighed against - there arent a lot of people, so some slides. step back to proceeds, thered be accrual, store, potential aggregate, and spend. those player(s) would have oddity there.

    I'm upset about Figs, my stalker - someone said nasty things about stalkers in general, and its been grating on me. the player complimented my damage, but, they said i have to hit things one at a time, and up close mainly. Figs is rad/rad, so i can aoe somewhat. i have combat teleport for gap closing... ...but theyre right! ultimately, Figs is not a blaster. so it hit me, what else is moxed type like blaster for slotting diversity and general offense? Dominator! I'm a dominator fan too, i probably have 20 or so random ones at 50. but i want something new! so i want to try something ive not done: symphony gravity fire /something any advice or favorites? i like damage and wildness! -- honoroit, the untamed

    dunno, eq2 nagafen got pretty gank squaddy. i loved it! there were level ranges and what equated to forced exemp, but with power rescaling. however, yes, never felt terror in game more than in eve - when flying a freighter, with double wrapped MANY bp originals, moving ops to a new corp. galante high spec space to minimitar near their start system. i never went below 0.5, but id have lost all-the-things if anything at all had intercepted me.

    if you're famous, like me, in CoH, prisms comes down to one thing:

    same kind of people pull their internet when they get invaded in dark souls. but strangely, still get online. guess they want co-op at no risk, and dont mind having to reset when it happens. in a world that were perfect, itd be a type of server/shard. no 'force me to engage' or anything exciting like that.
  25. honoroit
    power items, like epic class weapons, or artifact sets, or other else granted power in game, and were oft best in slot for pve, or provided significant advantage beyond cosplay. prisms are for cosplay, and we change the theme weekly even on excelsior! i would love two things: 1/ prisms to drop from a range of activities that reflect the players actual play at a reasonable rate, if time gating is goal. 2/ more pvp! (3/ pvp invasions into city zones, even within faction)
