[Build save command]

Ah, I didn't know it was a separate command.

[Build save command]

So, we have the excellent /buildsave command, but there's one limitation to it...

 

Can we please allow it to either take an argument (that would be the name the build saves as) or have it name the file the character's name? 

 

Right now, if you want to to save multiple builds, you have to go out of the game and change the build.txt for name to something else or you just end up overwriting the file.

[Can we stop calling them Pages?]

Page 7 is big enough that I'd consider it a full issue, but most of the pages are smaller than the issues we were used to on live, which is where the "page" name comes from

If redraw bothers you something  to consider is less clickys on secondaries during combat

Redraw is basically not a thing anymore, you have your initial weapon draw once per mission and that's about it.

[I desire a little build help please. Fire/Ele/Power for 3 person team.]

I've recently leveled up an electric/electric defender and also played the set on a mastermind.

 

Electrical Affinity is a really strong set, but I find myself buffing at least as much as I'm attacking, so I'm not sure how I would feel about the set on a Corruptor.

Carp Melee and Carp Armor

[Non-Plant primary for /Poison]

I've wanted to try fire/poison but can't come up with a build that deals with the endurance issues it would likely have.

[Beta, page 7: Informal PI Radios tonight]

I'd love to try out my Arsenal/Traps controller to see how it fairs in team situations, but that's right around the time I have dinner, so no promises I can make it.

[TF Enhancements sets]

On live there were certain costume parts that were locked behind content.  I disliked it, and I still dislike it.  Page 7 has some costume stuff locked behind the mongoose badge, I'm against that (even though mongoose is relatively easy to get)

I'm not seeing much point in Cloaking Device.

 

I can understand why it was added, perception reducing powers exist in the form of Smoke and Superior Invisibility on other control sets but mechanically it's redundant to have both of them. If the purpose of it was to provide a power that obscured the player; Smoke Grenade does that and more, the only real benefit is that it grants +DEF to the player and doesn't have a target cap. But, when compared to the Stealth pool power, it has the same stealth radius, but lower defense. Compared to Superior Invisibility, it has the same defense, but a lower stealth radius.

 

So with that said... why not just remove Cloaking Device? It's way more viable to just pick Stealth, and Smoke Grenade has way more versatility. It would be much more beneficial to have more control in the powerset, something like an AoE slow? The PPD have a Glue Grenade power that would work extremely well with this powerset. Either that or add in Wide Area Web Grenade from VEATs.

 

 

 

It actually has the same 200' non-breaking stealth radius of Superior Invisibility.  Looks to me to be an exact clone of it.  Also, Cloaking Device means you don't have to use one of your 4 power pools to get it.

[Spirit Drain takes Melee AoE sets]

Spirit Drain in the Dark Mastery APP still takes Melee AoE sets, it should take Ranged AoE sets instead.

[I'm New and this is going to be a dumb question.]

Mastermind self damage is laughably low, unfortunately.

 

Solo, I generally just leave my pets in bodyguard mode then use my attacks, you yourself don't do much damage, but your pets will attack whatever is attacking you.  On teams, it's a little more complicated, and I find myself switching between offensive and defensive modes pretty regularly.

 

Note that if you do want to do more damage late game, /storm is an excellent choice, though very endurance heavy.

[Nature/Storm - Help with power selection and slotting?]

Yes, Leadership is still a good skill line to take

 

As for nature affinity, it depends on your goals, I like high-recharge builds for it, so I've got the following powers slotted as such:

 

Regrowth - 6 Preventative Medicine

Wild Growth - 4 Recharge/Resistance IOs, 1 end redux (thats really only necessary on an MM)

Spore Cloud - 4 Dark Watcher's Despair

Wild Bastion - 5 Panacea, 1 recharge

Overgrowth - 5 Adjusted Targeting

 

Corrosive Enzyme is a 1 slot wonder power, just an accuracy will do.

 

As for Epic pools, Mace mastery is always nice because it provides defense.

Soul Mastery is great for power boosting Regrowth

Rune of Protection in Sorcery is a great power, as it can act as a break free.  Not an epic pool, but just a thought.

[Focused Feedback: Arsenal Control]

It might be interesting to see Beanbag instead of Tranquilizer.  I personally don't have any problems with Tranquilizer, it has its place, but it just seems a bit of an odd power to be shooting out of a gun.

[Focused Feedback: Various Power Updates]

@Argentae Thinking about the lack of -knock it makes sense.  This means that Levitate still has its full effect.

 

I like the concept of the new TK, but I still think I'll skip it in its current state.  Bare minimum I'd like to see the end cost cut dramatically and/or the 30 second duration removed.

[Focused Feedback: Remote/Temporal Bomb]

Maybe it just feels long because you're kneeling there not doing anything then, in which case, I retract my previous comment.

 

I did notice something weird one of the times that I cast it.  it was on an enemy, i tried to detonate it, but my gun drone killed the enemy before it went off.  This caused the bomb to drop, then detonate, but it looked like the bomb was still on the ground.

 

 

[Patch changes are up, it's huge.]

I'd suggest posting your thoughts in the correct "focused feedback" thread so the devs get an eye on it.

 

Great in depth review of the new TK BTW.

I've noted that MidsReborn forum exports aren't working correctly, with the exports being faulty and incapable of being properly shared. 

 

Anyone have a solution for this? 

 

Thanks!

Yes, just attach the file

I've got an inv/titan tank that is a beast.

 

Really, pick a set that sounds fun and run with it.

Tbh the set looks awful. And if it is like any other of the new power sets made by HC, I can't see it being used much!

Have you actually tried it or are you just nay saying?  It's got a lot of good mechanics to it and is pretty fun.

[IO sets - Is it easier to fill missing +defense or missing +resists?]

Defense is easier to build for partly because Power Pools have a lot more defense in them than resistance (Tough is the only power pool power that has resistance in it), it's not entirely about IOs, but there you have it.

 

[Focused Feedback: Remote/Temporal Bomb]

ok, trying it a bit more, I feel like the animation time is *really* long for the set up.  I'm assuming it's the same animation time as Time Bomb originally had, which was too long (one of several problems with that power).

Surveillance (Arachnos Soldier AT, unsure if other ATs affected) aggros mobs, despite the "Enemies will not notice this attack" flag.

 

Do you have a proc slotted in there? I just tried it and it isn't notifying mobs for me.

[Best lazy boy AT?]

Bots/Force Field would get my vote as well.

[Focused Feedback: High-Level Council Revamp]

I just want to say that I was playing my Arsenal controller and confused a Galaxy boss… it proceeded to cast the Warshade version of Fold Space, aggroing a bunch of other mobs.  Hilarity ensued.
