Basically, all of this, there is some minutia wrong but its irrelevant. Point is some effects are resisted by duration, others by magnitude. The ones resisted by duration can have a 10k res cap as resistance follows a different formula than the magnitude based effects. Magnitude based effects are generally hard or soft capped at 100%, even if there is no hard cap to those effects, you are not able to resist the magnitude of anything beyond 100% as that turns the magnitude into negative values. Almost nothing that can be resisted by magnitude can reach 100% resistance. Some entity classes or stats have exceptions. For players, Repel is one such exception, as players can become 100% resistant to repel.

There was no intentional nerf to the MoG mez/knock protections. Will look into what's going there as soon as I can but note that player KB resistance cap is 99%. Repel resistance cap is 100%. Having anything above 100% is not just overkill, but certainly a typo from someone years ago thinking 100 in a spreadsheet meant 100%. MoG still gets players to the cap, making any protection over mag 1 only meaningful while facing irresistible auto-hit knockback (i specify autohit due to the high defense the power provides).

Scrapper: Second Wind Duration Rez Issue
Captain Powerhouse replied to ItashuLead's topic in Bug Reports
Not sure if this is what is happening to you but there is a bug where the rez is not being refreshed if you do refresh the MaxHP buff before it expires. There is a fix for that in the queue. -
Powers Reverting balance changes for future balance pass: Glittering Column explosion internal recharge. Hypnotizing Lights Proc split. Radiation Therapy adaptive recharge and DR adjustments. Plant Control > Spirit Tree: Fixed a bug where this power could be repelled moving it away from its visual fx. Thermal Radiation > Power of the Phoenix: Fixed a bug where the Defender version of this power was only usable on foes. Epic > Dark Mastery > Soul Consumption: Fixed a bug where the Defender version of this power was recharging in 1000s instead of 600s. Fixed a bug where the endurance drain and +end of the Defender version of the power was scale 2 instead of scale 1, as the other versions. Regeneration > Second Wind: Fix for an issue where refreshing this power before it has expired would result in no refreshing of the self resurrect effect. Psionic Armor > Impose Presence: Fixed an issue where this power was available at level 10 instead of level 8. Confuse: Fixed an issue where most AVs and GMs became highly resistant to confuse. Regeneration > Reactive Regeneration: [PvP only] Corrected a bug where only Brutes got the base +regen reduction change, change now also applies to Scrappers, Stalkers and Tankers. [PvP only] Reduced +regeneration stacks from scale 0.25 to scale 0.08. [PvP only] Regen Resistance granted by stacks in this power has been removed in PvP. [PvP only] Reverted the removal of -Regen Resistance, as it was removed from the incorrect power. Tasks General - Advanced Mode Arachnos Soldiers/Arachnos Widows who own the Bane/Night Widow stealth powers are not targeted by map-wide DoT effects. Mission Maps Igneous Lava Cave Fixed a minimap extents error on this mission map. Enemies The Awakened Lowered Conduit Psychic Battery from 40% to-hit to 10%, 20% damage buff to 16%. Lowered Psionic Blast damage from scale 2.12 to scale 1.8. Standardized Psionic Wounds to scale 1.64 DoT.

I should had added recharge enhancements to my test... Anyways just calculating: Ground Zero is 90s 15ft radius 3s cast time That is a base 57.7% PPM multiplier with no recharge Doing this in a bit of a rush as I'm taking a very short break from some chores, but this Is what I am coming up with: This seems to match your results. Are your expectations based off 8ft radius calculation by any chance?

@Maelwys I just ran a test, and keeping in mind I'm working locally on a newer branch it seems to work as expected. Against 10 foes, I hit 9. This was on a scrapper. Edit: I tested with Touch of Lady Gray and although I still saw a few more misses than I would expect, it still is RNG on 10% floor and that can go any way. I dont see any reason why proc rate of any power would be affected here.

Thorny Assault Impale activate time slower than listed
Captain Powerhouse replied to victusfate's topic in Bug Reports
Are you queueing another attack after for your test? Because the entire animation is longer, but it only locks you down for 1.43s. You should be able to execute another attack and start moving even if the animation is not entirely over in some powers (like this one). -
Pyrotechnic controller losing power slot choices

A fix for this is already in the queue. -
Thorny Assault Impale activate time slower than listed
Captain Powerhouse replied to victusfate's topic in Bug Reports
The Activation Time only determines the time you are rooted. The projectile timer is extremely slow, and there is also an additional delay if you are activating it from no-spines drawn. If you are popping out the spines from idle combat position, its Animation Time takes 2.07 seconds, plus the time that the projectile takes to hit. -
Did any feedback matter in the threads? Or…
Captain Powerhouse replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
A long time ago during the Force Field revamp we considered changes to Detention Field, we were told by many that they use these powers in combination to disable AVs in multi-AV encounters as they tend to have strong mez protection but no Phase protections. Due to the feedback offered at the time, we left Detention Field untouched. Sleep is another tactic, but AVs will instantly wake up if anyone accidentally hurts them even with Deep Sleep as AVs are highly resistant to the effect. It's a non-exploitative use of the power that did not need to be removed for this change to be introduced, so it was not removed. Someone would have to make a very strong case about exploits to have the phase element removed, or an alternative considered from there. -
Did any feedback matter in the threads? Or…
Captain Powerhouse replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
Because it allows the power to retain functionality it always had for some players: the ability to stack it with other similar powers to take certain targets out of a fight temporarily, targets that are usually nearly impossible to hold or otherwise mez. -

Captain Powerhouse replied to Snarky's topic in General Discussion
If you bump into any critters that entirely resist the trawl effect but are made intangible with a single activation of Black Hole, please list them in a bug thread. Almost all enemies that entirely ignore trawl also have phase protection. -
Focused Feedback: Sleep Revamp - Deep Sleep
Captain Powerhouse replied to The Curator's topic in [Open Beta] Focused Feedback
@Auroxis There is a short lockout to prevent rapid pulses from powers like Telekinesis from instantly breaking the sleep, I don't have the value at hand at the moment.
