Granted I have like a lot of Dual Pistols characters . . . three DP Blasters (MC, Time and Ninja), a DP/Kin Corr, a Time/DP Defender . . . crap I don't have a DP Sentinel . . . and Sentinels are getting love . . . So I could make a DP Sentinel and it would be for testing . . . yeah that's it. Looks at watch to see how much longer before leave work . . . excellent. Dual pistols on Sentinel's is surprisingly good. It's particularly sexy with super reflexes, energy aura, or invulnerability (from my stable anyways). Bio is ok, but a bit squishy for a melee nuke. Of all the sentinel blast sets I have played dual pistols the most fun and it never gets old. It does lean a little heavy on procs, so the day that system gets revamped will probably sting.

You think there are angry posters now, just wait. I know absolutely nothing but there are some builds/ATs that can do some pretty amazing things with procs. Whether that merits a rebalancing is debatable though. I enjoy it while it lasts. I for one love throwing out fully procced put Carrion Creepers in large spawns and seeing all the orange numbers 🙂 1

Nvm i read it. Slightly useful….wait no not useful for Dark Armor. I was going to say to mule defense but the early morning fog cleared and i realized i do not build defenses on Dark. Overall a reasonable power alteration and completely weak sauce for most applications Edited October 18, 2022 by Snarky
Shred Monkey Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 I don't see myself changing anything I currently have... although I might make a sentinel and then never feel the need to play anything else ever again. 1 Active on Excelsior: Prismatic Monkey - Seismic / Martial Blaster, Shadow Dragon Monkey - Staff / Dark Brute, Murder Robot Monkey - Arachnos Night Widow

I may be wrong but the Sentinel upgrade looked...okay? Not OMFG I Gotsztah haz I have an Elec/Temp Blaster that will (obviously) outdamage any Sentinel. Played to it's strength it can easily out survive any Sentinel as well. Do not see that changing.

Zepp Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 I am surprised they brought this out so quickly. I look forward to reading the Sentinel pages over the next couple of days... also, I really hope that Mids is updated soon so I can start on my respecs. I was really excited for Illusion Control on Dominators, but it is more of a ST traditional control set than the chaos control of the troller version... so I think I may pass...

roleki Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 I can't tell from the patch notes, was the Dominator version of PA still tauntless? CEOs come and go, and one just went/The ingredients you got bake the cake you get

SeraphimKensai Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 Just saying pushing out page 5 as fast as they did seems very rushed. There was some stuff in there that I personally didn't think was ready for production but then again, I guess we'll see how it pans out. 1

It was rushed, but rushed for a reason and not a random decision. Faultline is off and away for a while due to RL and he was/is the compile guy so until he is back no more patches. So Page 5 had to be done before he left. 1 2 - Simple guide for newcomers. - Money making included among other things. - Tanker Fire Armor: the Turtle, the Allrounder, the Dragon, and compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Tanker Stone Armor: beginner friendly (near) immortal Tanker for leveling/end-game and Stone Armor framework. - Brute Rad/Stone and compilation of Brute Stone Armor builds.

I'm still on 2.7.2.10 and the only one I saw people using at one point was throwing a virus scan issue (prob not a virus, you know how AV software can be overcautious). But I've been praying for an I4-compatible Mids/Hero Designer, and now I guess we are in I5. The one thread or two I see about it looks old, with the most recent comments being vague. I mean, I havent looked this week, but ..... I wonder if there ever will be a Mids/Hero Designer for I5. I used to love doing all my toons on paper anyway, writing down columns for all the numbers and totaling them up and stuff. Good times. :)

Black Zot Posted October 18, 2022 Posted October 18, 2022 So with Page 5 now moved ahead to the staging server, is there any point to further testing or is it a formality?
