Looking at Fire/Katana the only thing I can really point a finger is at how badly it exemps. One tap of Divine Avalanche softcaps and more stacks will just help with defense debuffs. This in turns frees so much slotting that Hasten goes down to 125 seconds. Easy rotation with a 0.2 gap of Divine Avalanche, Soaring Dragon, Golden Dragonfly. Nice place for a FF proc.

 

But dat exemplaring. All the way up to 35 with only Flashing Steel, Divine Avalanche and Burn. We -could- take and/or slot the T1/T2, in a world with infinite powers and slots, but if exemped to at least 33 those powers and slots would gather dust uselessly.

yeah but i use my all mighty Fire claw mid range bomber for exemplaring :

On a Tanker:

Energy Punch w/ 3 50 Damage IO's @ 1.056/s: 153 per Activation

Total Focus w/ 3 50 Damage IO's @ 3.432: 544.4 per activation

 

Energy Punch DPA for 1.056/s: 144.9

Total Focus DPA for 3.432/s: 158.6

 

Energy Punch's damage adjusted over 3.432/s: 497.25

Energy Punch over 3 activations (3.168/s): 459

 

Energy Punch if it misses 1 of 3 in 3.168/s: 306

Total Focus if it misses in 3.432/s: 0

 

TF>BS>ET>BS chain: 9.768, 1,743.6 damage, DPS of 178.5

DPS of chain w/ one missed TF: 122.76

DPS of chain w/ one missed ET: 107.1

DPS of chain w/ one missed ET and TF: 51.37

24.56 attacks per minute, at 5% miss: 1.24 attacks, of which 2 in 4 (50%) chance of being ET or TF ("equally" devastating).

 

EP>BS>EP>ET>EP>B: 9.372, 1,609.1 damage, DPS of 171.69

DPS of chain w/ one missed EP: 155.36

DPS of chain w/ one missed ET: 97.27

DPS of chain w/ one missed EP and ET: 80.95

38.41 attacks per minute, at 5% miss: 1.92 attacks, of which 1 in 6 (20%) chance of being ET (most devastating).

 

Purely for analysis. TF > ET chain is more promising, especially towards procs (if they can be included), but it takes a strong amount of global recharge to keep their probability up. EP inclusive chain is more forgiving on demands and is also more forgiving on misses, has more low-tier variety that one missed attack doesn't necessarily sink the proverbial ship.

 

If my time on Kinetic Melee taught me anything it was: (Big Animation = Bad DPS) if (Big Animation = Best Attack) and (Big Animation * 2(Best Attack) = Very Bad DPS)

Should that be TF > EP? Both chains have ET where only one has EP. Admittedly it is very early here and I am not fully awake, so I may have misread something that makes it clear whether it is ET or EP.

 

Edit: never mind me. I take it it is saying the chain that uses TF then ET is better, rather than saying that the chain that uses TF is better than the one that uses E(T orP).

(I guess I am just used to ">" being "greater than")

for a tanker, hitting above 1K is already silly on the most resistant AT of the game ^^

This is another thing. Mids' numbers always confused me. What do they even mean? When I use them it is just to compare since they never seem to match what I get in game.

2:54 with Assault Core Hybrid toggled on for my Fire/EM tank. Musc/Degen/Assault all T4. Had a much worse 1st run but then stuck another KB protect in Fly for 12 protection. Amazing how much DPS goes up when you're not getting blasted on to your ass.

I always cheat and create a SG to get the KB protection from the base empowerment.

So I kind of oops'ed this build a bit.

I based it off a pre-sunset build and then worked into today's environment.

 

It's got the stats where I need it but the power picks aren't in the right spots.

I end up playing a lot of my characters as if they were a tank.

 

My favorite "tanks" include:

Rad Blast/Fire Manipulation Blaster

Poison/Rad Defender

Plant/Nature Controller

Elec/Cold Controller

Elec/Psi Domi

Water/Storm Corruptor

Rad/Dark Scrapper

Warshade

Crab/Bane (the Soldier/Widow use select build macros to hot swap back/forth mid mission)

Fort/Night

Elec/Bio Stalker

 

and lastly the actual tanks:

Elec/Rad Tanker

Invuln/MA Tanker

Arcanatime shows the truth!

I wonder if Arcanatime still exists in the game. I was doing a test recently with a Scrapper's Eagles Claw to see how the Critical Hit buff window works. I tested the follow rotations (I used the alternative animation for Crippling Axe Kick and Storm Kick):

 

EC > CAK > SK 

 

EC > Cobra > SK

 

Crippling Axe Kick has a cast time of 1.6s while Cobra Strike has a cast time of 1.67s, however both have an arcanatime of 1.848s. So you would think Storm Kick would have the same Critical Hit performance as it begins its cast 1.848s after Eagles Claw ends. However, the performance is far better for SK when it follows CAK (1.6s cast time). I don't understand why this is and I may never get around to looking into it further, but it does make me wonder if the arcanatime from Live no longer is the same as it is on Homecoming. 

 

For what its worth, the critical hit buff from Eagles Claw is +33% for 2s. Storm Kick has a 15% chance to crit, so the expected "good" performance is 48% crit rate. I saw 42% in my Test 5, and I saw 21% in my Test 8. The perfromance skewing below expections for "good" and above expectations for "bad" may just be randomness from the relatively small sample size. But it is possible the "good" sometimes misses the buff window while the "bad" sometimes gets the buff window. Either way, there is clearly something up that seems to not follow arcanatime like we would expect.

 

[nihilii]

I've always felt something was wrong with Cobra Strike specifically. It feels much longer than 1.848s. I attribute it to the look of the animation. Maybe there is something else there. How would we go about testing animation times? /demorecord and then parsing the resulting file for tics between activations?

I wish I had even the remote sense of a possible clue to even begin such an endeavor.

I have to say, this is one of the best, most-informative threads. I thought it was gonna be just a bunch of d!c$-swinging, but of course I should have figured that, being the tank forum, it would end up being super helpful. (That may sound internet-facetious, but it's totally sincere.)

For the most part, this community has mostly been helpful and informative. . . True sometimes we argue and bicker - usually over math (which thankfully I am to dumb to argue about) - but the OG (Original Gamers) are usually exceptionally helpful. 

I think the biggest issue I have with this thread is I need to quit reading it because everytime there is a new response I make a new tank!

I never used demorecord, but if the fidelity is good, that sounds like a good way to go. Other options could include summoning Arcanaville. If you @ them 3 times, they may appear Beetlejuice style.

By super slim margins.

[Sovera]

@Bill Z Bubba! @Bill Z Bubba!

 

Check this out! 😄

 

Fire Armor/Rad melee, all T4, no clickies.

 

Using Reactive 75% chance of fire DoT:

- 3:02

- 3:10

 

Using Degenerative:

- 3:38 (bad luck streak here)

- 2:59 (zoly crap, finally beat the 3 minute barrier)

 

Both are still super close together beating the common knowledge that Degenerative was supposed to be the best option VS pylons.

 

And just for luck Degenerative + Assault 65% chance:

 

- 2:20

 

I used a rotation of Burn, Gloom, Radioactive Smash, Radiation Siphon, Radioactive Smash. Fit very neatly together. Gloom could be exchanged for Contaminate and free a butt load of slots for only the small price of going from 389 damage to 139.

 

😛

 

The numbers are not super incredible since they fit the norm (both Martial and Claws had times ranging between 3:15-3:30. Even EM had a 3:30 time, BUT, consider the set has the utility of a built-in heal AND it does passive AoE! Astoundingly good passive AoE.

 

It might seem I'm being facetious with the AoE claim but anyone with a Fire/Rad knows of what I talk where Burn + burn patch + damage aura + Irradiated Ground is melting stuff around us while we focus on a boss.

 

The ugly: I stripped the build so much to reach my goals that for once it actually detoggled while facing the pylon. I had to use Recovery Serums to do the tests as Consume did not keep up and I didn't even have Tough or Tactics turned on (not much reason to use Tactics anyway, other than niche reasons, as it is a mule). In multi target scenarios Consume kept up better but it was still touch and go waiting for Consume to finish recharging. Which makes sense since the build is so stripped down (damn those Kinetic Combats).

 

There's room for improvement in that aspect as even a single Kinetic Combat being taken off would help with slotting.

 

It might finally be a case of taking Cardiac. MAYBE. Because as long as Recovery Serums and Consume can be alternated (Recovery Serum is not perma) and the Serum is worth 10k a charge there is no reason to GOT TO SUCH EXTREMES!

 

I also removed Atom Smasher since I needed all the slots I could scrounge. I went to test in a Comic Con and it cleared well but having Atom Smasher would have helped.

Both are still super close together beating the common knowledge that Degenerative was supposed to be the best option VS pylons.

I’ve found Reactive Radial to be best in my own Tanker testing on level 54 AVs, but since it was all Martial Arts, and I generally only checked pylon times after determining which option was best for AVs, I didn’t want to draw any wider conclusions. Interesting to see a similar data point.
