    +4/8 Dark Armor

    in Tanker

    Posted

    If you're planning on just farming, endurance management becomes more of a reliance on Ageless and less on powersets. As well, the amount of AOE in a set matters less. You'll want be more focused on having one or two really good AOE attacks and then using AOE from one of the patron pools.

    This means radiation melee, martial arts, electric melee, and psi melee do just fine for farming, in addition to the sets people are mentioning above. 

    Savage melee pairs very nicely with dark armor, as long as you dump your blood frenzy stacks before hitting 5 so you don't get exhaustion.


    All of that is assuming you're not trying to build a real character that can farm on the side.

    Is Radiation Melee just kinda… fine?

    Ugly damage aura that is either bright and eye searing or dark and obscuring, so people don't love running it. Same reason cold domination isn't as popular as it should be based on how good it is. People don't like powers that hide your character, and Irradiated Ground kind of does that.

    It's also weird to rely on a damage aura as part of the ATTACK set, for a significant portion of the set's AOE. Especially with its high end cost.

    And then its good attacks are all slow. 

    It's not a bad set though, just a lot of little things that make it not as fun to play as it could be,

    This is not a good idea.

    Rename/Rework Dual Blades: Dual Wield

    in Suggestions & Feedback

    Posted

    As I stated in the text of this very old revived thread. I don't think a rework is necessary but people complain about damage types not making sense if they aren't blades.

    I'm aware it doesn't need to be renamed to achieve the same result. But if the devs are using that as their excuse, then this is a solution.

    Base Showcase Nature/Other August 17- Sept 1

    Base Code: EXPLOREONFOOT-20176

    Globals: @Wravis/@Jibily

    Shard (aka server): Everlasting

    Special Considerations: Explore it on foot first... that's why I gave it that code. Fly around after.


    Base Code: Cabin-8752

    Globals: @Wravis/@Jibily

    Shard (aka server): Everlasting

    Special Considerations: Kind of the protoversion of Exploreonfoot. But there's a cabin, too. My earliest base!

    Wravis, with your permission, I would rather hold this back for next month's Showcase, Nature/Other? Since it's pure nature. I'm not putting it in the Tour hubs yet, pending your response. Please feel free to choose the next appropriate base for you to show off. 🙂

    That's fine.

    Return First Appearance Date to Normal

    in Suggestions & Feedback

    Posted

    I don't see where the First Appearance Date toggle is listed in patch notes but I think it's a terrible change. What was the thinking behind this change? What does it fix?

    First Appearance Date helps see if a character might have met another at glance. Helps determine if a trouble character is a fresh troll. Helps spot new players.

    Obviously it doesn't accomplish these things perfectly, but it's a useful tool for at a glance info.

    Report Costume Issues Here

    I am being charged for Scales +1 million influence every time I load a costume file I saved. I was not able to duplicate this bug on any other character, including other level 50s. I've had this character since 2019, and so I typically will save costumes and load them to get around the 10 costume limit. This started three weeks ago.

     

    I begin with this outfit. I'm at the Atlas Park Icon.

    I load the SAME outfit over it.

     

     

    I am charged 1 million influence for scales.

     

     

    I bite my tongue and pay it. I now save the thing I just loaded over the StacyOrange file.

     

     

    Now I load StacyOrange and... it doesn't charge me yay! Everything is fine yay!, Right?

     

     

    Except now I zone and come back. I do not talk to ANY other icons or make any other costume changes.

     

    I try to load the same exact file. The one you JUST saw me save and we know have the same scales.

     

     

    This will happen with any costume I load, even if I save all new ones. This is not repeatable on any other character, even ones whose scales I've changed in the past. I thought maybe this character had become corrupted somehow, but I was told by support to post it here.

    I tested this and have the same result.

    If you alter a character's scales and save the file, when you load that exact file after zoning, you are charged for changes, despite no changes to the costume or scales occurring.

    So a short duration AoE Stun and a moderate duration Cone Stun with a single target Hold and Immobilize is enough for it to fill the Control slot?  While I will agree that it at least has some control, is a Warshade's Control so much better than a Corruptors ability for Support?  Or a Defenders ability for Ranged Damage?  Or an Ice/Ice/Ice Blaster's ability for Control?  Oh, but you say, we're talking about a broad overview of the AT, not individual powers, right?

     

    Enter the Fortunata.  If we're talking about a broad overview of the AT, is it OK to give the Widow a Control Role, when only one powerset has any controls?  So if you bring a Night Widow onto the team, a character with literally zero control powers, magically the Control Role is fulfilled?  Literally every other AT has access to more controls than a Night Widow, including a Sentinel, but sure, ya lets call them a Controller, because they are Epic! Must fill 3 roles!!!

     

    Heck, the fact that Soldiers and Widows fill the Support Role (and are even listed as Support in Character Creation) boggles my mind, because outside of a debuff or two, the only real support they have is a built in Leadership pool.  If that is what's considered Support, three toggles that are accessible by every character in the game, while Corruptors are not, then there's a fundamental problem with this design.

    Widows also have Link Minds which is a group unenhanced 10% Defense, 5% Tohit, 30% Psi Resist Buff. And their Leadership power give nearly twice the Defense % of regular Leadership.

    I agree with you on assigning them the control role being stupid. Night Widows don't have a single control power.

    The only other change that should happen with Sonic Resonance is making Sonic Siphon a true Siphon by giving + RES.  

     

    Sonic is a much better set now that Liquify is actually up for almost every spawn now or every other spawn.  

    That doesn't address any of the issues Sonic has. Sonic is weak compared to most other sets, and it's weird they aren't really addressing any of the issues other than Liquefy when they're doing a pass on it.

    The liquefy change is nice, but I think sonic needs more love than this. Other than being the king of handing out resistance to a team (and thus providing less protection than a bubbler), it really shines nowhere else. It's not even king of resistance debuff. Poison, Cold, and trick arrow all debuff a single target just as hard. Poison and trick arrow are also better at the AOE debuffing. 

    It's not even the king of handing out resist buffing. Pain Dom dishes out the same amount of +resist with one click. And it's easy to make World of Pain permanent. And Electric Affinity has a better mez protect.

    Sonic does nothing better than any other powerset.
