For the power placement order, yes. Slot placement levels will be up to you.

Not in PvP, and hopefully eventually, not in PvE either.

Actually, it shows he does understand OP. OP wants it so that if you've achieved 100% accuracy, you can't miss. You can also achieve 100% resist and 100% defense in the game. The caps for those mechanics are effectively the same thing as the "clamp". The comparison made is quite apt, actually. Well I get it. That being said, what the OP is asking for is a little less ridiculous than 100% resistance.

You recall incorrectly... or at least confusedly. The game can track higher numbers than whatever any given attribute is capped at, but the "hard cap" is whatever that cap is. Your statement would suggest that there are no "hard caps" at all, because the game will retain whether or not you're getting +400% or +4400% recharge but provide "no benefit beyond" the 400%. Defense is a "soft cap" because the game will calculate a tohit reduction of up to ~200 from the enemy's base, but then replace any result lower than 5 with 5.

Yes. Sort of. As Pixie Knight indicated, accuracy and tohit multiply each other. If your tohit has been floored to 5%, +100% accuracy still only means a 10% final chance. These pages will be of interest to you. https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Limits https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Attack_Mechanics https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Enhancement_Diversification

Toggle animations can be over-ridden (try running Slide and Ninja Run together, for example) and I'm explicitly not asking for attacks to be permitted. The P2W travel powers aren't and shouldn't be "as good as" dedicating a power slot to travel.

I'm weirdly impressed by your commitment to bad testing. FWIW, the CoT Lt and Boss class enemies with defense debuffs are uncommon (the only CoT Lts with -def are Possessed). The most common Council enemies with defense debuffs are Nebula and Penumbra enemies, although there are scattered others. I'm not actually out to waste your time, so let me clarify two points here. First, we already know what the outcome of a perfectly accurate test will be: just about 5% more hits taken in difficult content, with a higher subjective impact if those hits mez or debuff and a lower one if they do not. That's "noticeable" as far as I'm concerned. Second, changing the tohit clamp without changing the accuracy clamp won't accomplish what you initially said you wanted to do; you'll still end up in situations where you see that dreaded 95.00% and popping Aim won't do a thing to change it.

They were changed because the set animation times were altered, and those kicks don't match the new (much faster) animations. It'd be nice to see them come back in some form, though.

The Shield Defense version does. Other click mez protection, like Burn and Kuji-In Rin, have other benefits that improve with recharge. SR would benefit much more from updating PB to this standard. I have a proposal (which also changes Elude and rejiggers a few other powers slightly) here.

Because additional recharge allows you to stack it. Clickable mez protection powers like it and the one in SD currently offer the best mez prot in the game. It would be better to keep it as it is and also add other stackable buffs into it.

Not +4; just 'enemies.' -1, if you'd like, as long as they still get attacks off. ~30%ish defense is a pretty normal amount on a reasonably kitted res-set toon, but pick whatever amount you feel is best. Since you're having some trouble, the following villain groups have -Defense powers on all critter ranks: Arachnos Banished Pantheon Carnival of Shadows Cimerorans Circle of Thorns Council Crey ...I could move on to groups starting with "D" if you like...

/invuln is the best stalker secondary.

Here's what I've suggested in other incarnations of this thread.

I was expecting this to be about how weak Interface is compared to other Incarnate abilities. So, y'know, /signed for buffing everything other than Reactive and Degenerative, but also probably those too.

Hey, cool. What would be a lot more interesting, though, is if you limited your posts to one proposed set and gave a rundown of the nine powers you're proposing. Having a sentence for theme is nice, but it makes it hard to see how the new set would add something to the game. For example, what kinds of powers would "tendrils" have? Would they be basically similar to powers in the "spines" set? Or when you say "Goliath" would add "boosts for your team"... well that's pretty vague. What boosts?

This is an interesting question even if the short answer is "we're not considering that." The reason we aren't looking at it is because Tanker survivability can be so over-curve as to be irrelevant. Right now, many Tanker builds are sacrificing "tankiness" because it's just not contributing to the team; it's better to get 5% more damage than 30% more mitigation. I think in practice, some of the higher-damage current Tanker builds would feel a bit of a survivability hit since they tend to rely on AoE damage to contribute (which is part of why one of my suggestions a page or two ago was to to step this aspect up). But I think they'd correct easily, and end up feeling a lot more superheroic as a result.

Two out of twenty-one attacks on that screen were affected by clamp, or ~10%. Further, those are the only two attacks of those 21 from boss class enemies, or 100%. You were fighting unusually weak enemies for +4, or are otherwise mistaken about your set-up; a +4 minion has a (0.5 * 1.4x =) 70% base hit chance, and 15 of the 21 attacks against you were made at a hit roll of 65%. If you'd like to re-test against something other than a pack of debuffed minions, you may achieve more interesting results. I'd particularly encourage you to -- rather than going in with 0 defense -- go in with ~30% defense but no defense debuff resistance, and fight mostly enemies that debuff defense. For now let me say, no it bloody well wouldnt and you can find me in RV most days. If you require further proof ill spend a while collecting combat log data to throw your way. The tohit clamp occurs sequentially before the accuracy clamp. Combat log data won't reveal circumstances when, eg, a 140% tohit would be passed to a 0.9 accuracy modifier and result in a guaranteed hit (with your change) vs an ~86% hit chance (now).

I wasn't able to upload one at all, but the same image uploaded to imgur works fine.

tl;dr : Don't use Rune of Protection. Fighting + Moment of Glory probably does more for you. Rune of Protection from the Sorcery pool has an uptime of less than 50%, and you already have a "cooldown" power that maxes all your resistances (Moment of Glory). You could use them together, and what that would look like is activating Moment of Glory to start the fight, activating Rune of Protection about 13 seconds later (since RoP takes about 2s to activate), letting it run for a minute and a half, then activating Moment of Glory again. At this point both powers would be on cooldown for over a minute, and you'd be at your base values; presumably you'd use Instant Healing to cover the gap. This doesn't synergize very well with Brute play; you have to interrupt your attacks to activate these powers and planning a defensive rotation like that interferes with your ability to move smoothly from one group of enemies to another. Having higher baseline mitigation from Fighting would most likely allow you to be more selective about using Moment of Glory, rather than needing it as a gap-filler just to stay up. You could consider dropping Maneuvers (Leadership) for the Sorcery pool as more of an equitable trade -- you do have several blank power slots to work with. I like the MA/Regen build with Fighting a lot more. As you noted, Storm Kick is a great power. The one reason I might caution against it is that you are trading in all the active mitigation of KM (knockdown and -dmg) for a bit more single-target damage. My playstyle does better with a lot of knockdown and debuff attacks. I don't know which you'd find better. If you do go that route, drop Thunder Kick from your build and re-slot Crippling Axe Kick for damage. Here's a version of that build that softcaps melee defense. To keep perma-hasten, you'd need to +5 both IOs in it and use something else as well (like a Base Empowerment attack speed buff).

Thank you for the comments! For this challenge, I use exclusively L50 "vanilla" IOs. Part of the idea behind it is that a build like this is extremely simple for a new player to understand. If a new player does adopt one of these builds, I'd definitely expect them to eventually replace the build IOs with multi-stat and/or set ones, but it's not how I'm handling the design. Although I intend the slotting to be easy to understand, I myself take a crunchy approach to designing the setless builds. The reason I almost always stop at two damage is because at that point, recharge slotting provides more dps than +dam does; two L50 damage IOs provides +83.3% damage while three provides +99.1%, an increase of only 16%. Replacing the third damage slot with recharge increases that power's damage by 42%, a gain of 26% dps over the alternative. Before the combo changes to stalkers I might have gone with the damage anyway... but as it stands they benefit from recharge as much as any other DPS AT.

/jranger in pve right now this change (other than breaking the game) would merely kill resistance-based players noticeably faster. in pvp it would wreck... everything. however, pve defense sets already need an elusivity component imho, and this entirely precludes that for... a minor dps benefit for a vanishingly small number of players.

Currently, activating several of the P2W travel powers deactivates all toggles, presumably to keep them from being useful in combat. I bought the void skiff. My Dark Armor tanker looks fantastic on the Void Skiff. He also has 12 toggles, 9 of which are self-only. I use the jetpack.

You mean like the ones in my signature?
