    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.

    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)

    currently 90% of us like grinding that funny-50-tf-i-never-do or running tunnels ~80 times to gather ~1150 million inf (250 prisms) so their character can enjoy an aura. if you dont think prisms from pvp should be a thing - do you think the drop rate should rise outside of literally less than a handful of places where accrual isnt punishing?

    i find a lot of people who complain about ganking call being killed in pvp in any way, ganking. could you end up with hunt packs in zone pvp, yes. its dangerous. a stalker or stealth becomes greatly more valuable, and a persons on their toes. were someone truely following you for an extended period, theres a bunch of zones. death happens, asymetric death happens, in pvp. to me, its part of what in totality is the most dynamic and challenging play type in the game. it beats rolling over council on repeat, where the primary concern is 'can party memver x get a hit in at all before the mob explodes'? people want to be powerful, they do not want that challenged by another like them. because while they may feel its unfair, they are aware that it was human vs human, and they lost. to some that stings a lot, but it doesnt have to. pvp isnt screaming pog loudly while remembering to thank your sponsors, patreons, and onlyfans - or it never used to be.
  12. honoroit
    yes! itd work, shiny and bright, magpies and treasures. its 1150M for an aura costume. i dont wanna run the tunnel map 80 times. dunno about the rest of you.
  13. honoroit
    baby lard?! your eyeballs? - you crazy! i fear youve been eating bark at the teamroom in baldurs 3? pvp is good!

    an extra toggle to let you hover, but sink to the ground as if anti flown, would be nice. geavity toggle, basically. you could still hop about but if you stop pressing space bar... down you go. its help with trying to use earth powers as a flying type.

    even if it were more of the posi 1 style clones, putting it in peoples face and integeating with pve, can lessen the 'i hate pvp' gut react some bring. take guild wars 1, youre playing normally, then you enter a mission where, without warning, the oponents are live. that 'mesmer' or 'warrior' is a player!! they did it very early level also, like 4 of 20. i dunno... is there even an mmo with pvp anymore? last good ones for me were eq2 (nagafen Figs, the illusionist - everything about eq2 pvp was great imo), aion (rifts!), blade and soul (BAD monetization, great pvp), wow (southshore lpwbie waves and waves)... and coh...eve online doesnt count. and of course guild wars 1 (more than 2 imo) anyway, not much these days, and by these days i mean decade, is there?
  16. honoroit
    cold domination / fire ? if you think so. though id probably corruptor, for scourge on fire, higher dmg, and enough on the defender set.
  17. honoroit
    ^ pvp was always great on live, i thought! agree theres a bad rep pvp enjoyers, umm, enjoy. i think that bc most homecoming players are slow and bad at pvp, probably... so they moan about even going red side, and hero fantasy rupture and so on and endlessly (see what i conflated there!?) nothing matches the zenith of pvp madness, kupo! the tanker with a warmace who superjumps (from nowhere) onto your face and connects monster hits. we've all had our bits that get the blood running, if your're in the know, right? just wish it could still be part of CoX. because non-heroes exist!
  18. honoroit
    interesting responses! you know, kupo, bribes work. bribing people to pvp would probably work. now gank squads? thatd be awesome! it can actually be fun when baddies pounce, if there's enough people to respond in kind. i dunno. i just want prisms AND pvp (invasions most). and also hot buttered porridge with raw honey and raisins. my desires are plain. prisms, pvp, and porridge.

    therss a set of multiple builds for any character, and I'd agree some are more or less advantaged in powers deoending on choice of character. as @biostem mentioned: Introduce a PvP mode that relies solely on a special build with only SOs or some equivalent... i like the idea of stripping down to SOs, accolades and incarnates etc removed - that flattens the set bonus madness and overpowered nonsenses that might otherwise arise. take something like ffxiv pvp - its poorly balanced. and, its not fun. but people play it, because the daily takes 20m and is about half a level of xp. coh pvp IS fun, in my opinion, but theres no reward incentive to make people play, nor a queue option. i think if it were a prism drop at a high rate, 20% or so, youd see some show up. i dont know if they can cross server queue, my guess is no, and unit centric design of system might make that overly complex - a shard it to exist as a monolith shard, or was, and so is. generally there, its might be time to merge some of these shards? if cross server pooling cant be achieved. we're down sub 100 on a number of them, yet those 100 would boost the remaining well. id love to see zone invasions, or if were all a ghost town of it - spawns from player builds, as with posi 1 last mission. itd be fun to encounter more like that, even if theyre server controlled. more generally - i still contest youd have floods to redside if there were loyalty-by-staying-time improved xp rates, or prism drops. prisms are a good one to mess with, as they do not affect player power, and the market prices for them could use a taking down. ~1150Million for an aura costume, or 450M for a tier 2 costume, is a lot.

    for player kills?! not that i know of. hope so!
  21. honoroit
    simple - would you pvp, arena or zone based, if prismatic aether things dropped when you killed people?

    Figs build MK2... he's pretty wonderous. I think to myself on TFs and team activities: - *they know I'm the strongest here! they must think I'm so cool!* sometimes, I even say so - tell them its OK to think I'm really great. that always goes down well! - got body mastery instead of picking mu for a couple of ranged abilities - in this only take superior conditioning (extra end), where I put a chance to self heal on this auto - picked up proton sweep - I'm ALWAYS in melee, and often between AOEs want something like the cone... among cones its not bad, and its yet another AT primary mechanic producer / consumer (contaminated). ty again to @Riot Siren and @Spaghetti Betty for build inspires. Figs (the famous) - mk2.mbd
  23. honoroit
    made a defender and corruptor build - def is elec affinity/storm, corruptor storm/storm. blaster - probably storm/elec.... or storm/energy... or storm/plant... or storm/ice ---- storm / ice would probably be good. corruptor - Corruptor (Storm Blast - Storm Summoning).mbd storm def - Defender (Electrical Affinity - Storm Blast).mbd
  24. honoroit
    Its stormy out, there's thunder, and the drinky people nearby are whooping at the sky. so I'm going to make a storm blast 'something'.... but what's the concensus? what's the best of best AT for storm, in your opinion??
  25. honoroit
    there could be costume contests in cap au diablo. thered need to be security for the lowbies, or the lvl 2s could fight the lvl 12 mu and brickers around the central square as if they were raid mobs. thered be blood on the streets! judges would assess if you look cool as a corpse pre-release. red side is so great! but no one cooperates! after costume contests... everyone would go to sirens call and pvp lots, and thered be leagues in the arenas, pocket d battle-with-bets... everyone would be so happy!
