Lockpick

The way this thread was going I was really expecting that you find out that you are indeed a robot... 🙂

I've been playing a few PA characters including a BS/PA scrapper. Here is a MA/PA build I have planned, but not started playing.

Thank you both, got it to work!

I remember seeing a post at one point where you could create a macro for hasten tagged to the W key, so whenever you were using W to move it would presumably click hasten if it was available. Can anyone provide this macro?

I almost always go Ionic because of the ease of targeting.

Thank you! I'm probably doing a Psi/BS Tanker next. Any chance you can share that build? I have never gotten a Tanker past about level 10, so have no experience with them.

Oh my! I tend to agree with the 1st part, but the fleas curse was quite descriptive (and troubling). 🙂

I've been playing a Broad Sword / Psionic Armor character and was hoping for some feedback. I went Broad Sword for Parry, so I could have soft-cap melee defense with one application of Parry and RoP for capped resists for S/L/F/C. Psionic is capped without RoP. I'm currently 47 and have not used RoP yet. I'm not really clear how to slot the following: Devour Psyche: I can't tell how well this is working. Aura of Insanity: I am planning 2 Lvl 53 Endoplasm Memento Mori. I am planning 1 Lvl 53 Endoplasm and 1 lvl 55 Health IO. I have not really used Memento Mori at this point. I used it a bunch with my Stalker, which is why I decided to go BS for my Scrapper. I have Psychokinetic Barrier on Auto-click, which seems to be working well. Anyway, feedback is welcome. Here is a build picture:

Is that a Tanker build and are you willing to share it? This thread has piqued my interest in Regeneration and I'm trying to decide what character to make. I was considering a BS/Reg stalker or an AR/Reg Sentinel.

Thanks for all the responses. I didn't realize the disconnect time was so complex, but the explanations make sense. I love the fact that I have played this game since launch (except the down time between shut down and HC) and I still learn something new each week.

I would like to see options to reduce the speed of SS. I use SS mainly for the concealment portion and for traveling. In maps like caves SS is annoying. I would love an option to reduce my speed in caves.

So, when I log off a character to switch characters I see different disconnect times in seconds. I've seen 19, 14, 4, and 0 (might be others I suppose). I understand when you are in some safe zones it is 0 (Oro or Base), but it is not clear to me about the rules for the others. I was in the Hive and logged off in the secure area near the vendor inside the protected area and it was still 19 seconds. What are the rules for the disconnect times? Curious minds want to know...

Haven't seen anyone call out Smoke and Mirrors. Depending on character this can be run between 6 to 8 minutes for 12 merits and between lvl 25 and 32 the XP is very good as well for leveling.

Kudos and thank you @The Trouble! I always enjoy reading posts that try to shed light on the math, since I am horrible at it. I usually put that ATO in the 1st or 2nd power selected because I never knew how it worked, so put it in the lower damage powers. At least now I can come back to this thread for some info for new builds. Now to figure out a way to bookmark this thread...

This build is AR/NT and soft-caps Range and S/L, so I run a lot of toggles. The issue with End is not to bad unless I get in a sustained combat. I decided to try 2 lvl 50+5 Heal IOs and Synapse Shok End + 5 and Synapse Shock End/Increased Speed. I don't have SS or the concealment run power, so thought I would try it out. It is interesting to see how many different ways people are slotting this power and their reasoning. I'm also 5 slotting Health on this build with 5 procs, so there is that. According to Mids my Regen is 606%.
