Force Redux

Thank you, I grabbed Criminal Offense

Set bonus is only applied to you unfortunately not the pets. I generally don't seek out damage bonus regeneration bonus etc for that reason.

I'll have to look at Mid's and compare why I made that choice. I think you'd be fine either way TBH.

Once your are ready you can solo Brigg's S/L cave farm. I'll grab you the ID next time I'm in. I've done it many times on my Thugs/Time/Mu before I retired him.

Geez, you guys are gonna make me roll another alt with all this talk!!! Ninja/TA... Who knew the day would come???

A safe start would be allowing shield buffs to affect the caster also, not every buff. No one is making that argument I think.

Understood. The values would have to be examined for self buffing. But currently there is no parity with sets like Time, for example.

How's your journey been going?

I would think if this ever would happen it would apply to any support secondary that buffs on any AT.

debuffs from separate sources should stack, debuff from the same sources may or may not stack depending on the power.

I like it for the bonus regen and Damage on Bruiser or the team tanks or high Damage dealers, but it's really skippable. But on teams I rarely use it TBH, I hate single target buffs.

I like having it on my Water/Regen as it's a good backup heal and a rez, so my (admittedly rare) defeats are just a blip on the radar. I don't bother with anything more than a single heal/recharge IO. It's a great one slot power.

Thank you, folks

Not really. GoTo tethers pets to an area they won't leave from. Just don't tell them to attack specific targets. I leave mine in Aggressive. Works well for 90% of content. That HC AI fix is awesome sauce!! 🙂🙂

Interesting. How do you get to the secret sub base? My search fu has failed me.

Thank you!

I saw someone in Pocket D using emote while idle - holding a smartphone while texting with two hands. Not the /e smartphone emote, as that one has you speaking into it. I didn't see anything in the menu... Any ideas what this command is? I'm sure I'm overlooking the obvious...🤔🙄

I leveled up a TA/Archery to 34 this weekend. I find it to be very busy. Maybe too busy for my taste. I might try this as a Beast or Ninja MM instead. Let the pets do their thing while I debuff. Sadly the numbers won't compare to Defender numbers. My old Illusion/TA on Live was also pretty similar to MM I think, as PA covers the busy work of interactive with the mobs woke you debuff and control as needed. Do others find TA combos this busy? Could just be me... Maybe I need to keep at it and find my rythym?

Invulnerability is a solid choice. However I'd also recommend Super Reflexes. On sentinel, SR is a fabulous set. It's no hassle. It requires minimal slotting. It gets to defense cap easily. It passively helps your endurance and resistances. It has an absorb clicky to shore up any damage spikes. It has a speed/recharge boost. And agree with Fire Blast. Easy. Reliable. Straight forward. I'm playing one now. Fun, relaxing, satisfying, durable.

You're correct about Cap au Diable, the TP point is at the Uni next to the base portal! Very convenient.

Very welcome. Hmm, not sure what happened. Should be: Nucleolus Exposure (ACC/DAM) Superior Mark of Supremacy Acc/DMG Superior Mark of Supremacy Acc/DMG/END Shield Breaker : % for lethal damage Touch of Lady Grey : % for negative damage Achilles Heel. : % for Res Debuff Shield Breaker is a flex spot, however. You could put a Gaussian there or something else.

You are a gentleman and a scholar. Sometimes when I read the forums on my phone instead of my PC I overlook things!

I missed that, thank you!

Would anyone mind posting a build? This seems to be a very slot heavy combo... So I'm probably missing something 😛

Here's a Mid's data chunk. Pets are just over soft cap. ITs a bit of an end-game build to shoot for, because I use a few Hami-Os, to save slots for more procs, but you can easily get by on standard crafted IOs, that's how good time is with thugs. I didn't put Pistol In, but you could swap out a hold for it and add a bit more to Ranged, but its all up to you. Time is busy enough you can ignore attacks if you like, or not. There's plenty to do usually. There are a million ways to build this, so feel free to tweak. I find I did not need to cap ranged if I had Time's Juncture going, as I typically don't get targeted due to the pets taking almost all aggro. The resist armor is there to bufffer my health when I do. This is my old build by memory. | Copy & Paste this data into Mids' Reborn : Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1509;718;1436;HEX;| |78DA65944B4C13511486EF74A6625BA08552CA5328AFC220A555962626A0A248950| |44274451A18DA49FA0AA5892CDDBAD4447CEC8D6E4CDCA8316A628C0226AEC48082| |1ADDB8425DE8C685E3E9FC87769269D27C73FF7BCFFBCEC42F9DA8BE3F7EF9B8907| |C63E944A130174F1496B5A58C9E5D70CF68F3A96C2E9D4BAEC84208D78C9ED13A67| |52C56415AD82957373D3C54C26978D94B60A218B3E5A5C5C8C94ACC86956CF17D38| |9653D97159EA95C2E1D3995D693A965EBB3D77C9ED4120BDA5221A5E7DDE67A3AAF| |690B2D27F3FA7CC4E23A5EE444579A289901FABF740AFE194E718CA0C8E2C03EF78| |831451CFC2A83DF691D5684FB0FF4AD40D956887B92A96D93264153A4B3D0DC93E0| |A138F31CF33CF8816C64D8C8F24387A9753E663E613E025F51BE4E8EE90C210F177| |5B6CA0C6A38AA02F019DAC5F9F00EE8A1332EB673B5A29E3572E4E1DA3D5C73F594| |62EE55CF82B5FF5073ED5BF8F1BD20FA155147FE6A1053AAE1986D3E7087EAF1B25| |FEF269D6F27BBF760FD16D8B80D36FDE53C1FC0769D72AA63DBBADFD8ABFF86B33D| |1BC85B5D07875E83B1357097E2FAB9F77E8EDBC0711A387E23C7EFE1B87EAA23C07| |504EE4253EF805DB417843F2938885E37313728CF6673D286B3997BD7B2CF0BE85D| |DB4530BC829EA963F0FB89F26C454CB9757F5E9264F639E4C7BABB3450CA5334127| |86EED7CF60DC5EE60AD83EFC067F2D9059F4A9743366DBB65A602F638C1D83BE4F1| |856C7AF9DEF5F29DECBB86BDBE695E5F41EE4FC9B49F73EE1FC1DE40941944AE034| |730876784419EE1E0759C39BCCABCC1BC090EDD62DE069F936D846718E1190EF30C| |877986C33CC318CFF023D511E57E4447D1C736C5F26E1AF413AA4D89DA94984D396| |A53466CCAA44D895714A3F442F1174148E6AECB577EDF8D3D37ED4AD6DD9F15C521| |4DA01A6516DD5142E8F00F9BD52FAB5527EE84E32AFAE35805C7D54A56A72DCF67D| |4F277C09850CBF7DAF80F2026FEB2| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
