Solarverse Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 It's been, well over 15 years since I have played a Stone Armor Brute/Tank/Whatever. Was Rooted ever changed so you could actually move without a Kin buffing you? And is Teleport still the only truly viable Travel Power? Or has it changed since then?

Bill Z Bubba Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Rooted recently had its movement penalties removed. With the incoming page 3 stuff, granite will even be able to jump over curbs but not any higher than that. Change is often good but if you're losin the OG crowd, you're doin somethin wrong.

Solarverse Posted November 17, 2021 Author Share Posted November 17, 2021 So is the Rooted penalty being removed current or will that be after the patch? Great news either way.

Great news either way. Pretty sure rooted's is already gone. Don't recall which patch but should be in the notes. 1 Change is often good but if you're losin the OG crowd, you're doin somethin wrong.

Meknomancer Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I haven't noticed many problems running about with rooted on and the new teleport updates mean its easily the best pool for stone armour especially with the new combat teleport dropping you into mobs at a click. I used to have tp and superspeed on stone toons now i feel pretty mobile just with tp, even without stacking a ton of run bonuses from sets you can get about quite well. Athletic run and sprint and you feel like you have a mini superjump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovera Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Do we still need to be 'grounded' for the bonuses?

Testing right now on my Ice/Stone brute, level 17, the status and debuff protections remain active when I go to the top of a high building and leap off (takes several seconds to reach the ground). Going to check with a P2W flight power, hold tight. Hanging out high overhead in AP with a Jingle Jet, Rooted's buffs remain active. Been up for over a minute, combat attribs all show no change.

For those not in the know, it all started here... and then it snowballed. Meme away. It's funny... I thought I'd be remembered for my TA and Archery guides, or for my acerbic wit(lessness), or even for treating archetypes like off-hand suggestions, if nothing else, but no, my thunder is stolen by a nerve-damaged nipple. I suspect that my epitaph will read, "Had a bad nipple, tried to play it down/died a boring death, nipple got a crown." 2 1 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.
