REST AND MM

[Lazarus]

Can we plz have REST also affect pets also on MM.

 

IT would be helpful to have a way to heal pets in-between fights.

 

not all pets have a way to heal themselves and not all secondary's have a heal

 

thx

Honestly... I'd rather not. There are times I'll throw pets against the last whatever's attacking me and back way off, enough to use rest - I wouldn't want them to stop attacking (and take the -def) when I do.

 

Now, having a command or power to put them into rest? Sure.

They might rest together with the player outside of combat.

Maybe within a certain radius your MM pets kneel down and start recovering? or whatever the "kneel" equivalent is for robots and demons and whatnot.

 

could give them a regeneration/recovery buff combined with an attack and accuracy debuff, that way they sorta recover but also are "weakened" by the Mastermind's lack of attention.

 

Though TBH with the buffs to recharge time on their summon powers and the ability to train / enhance every one of them within range with a single power, it's not that big of a deal to just dismiss the hurt/tired ones and summon new ones. I do that quite often throughout a fight because my ninjas run out of energy soooooo quickly...

You have to stop typing in all caps, sunshine.  Every time I see the thread title, I think it says "REST AND HAM" and wonder what you've been smoking.

You know, if you have the safe space to rest, you can just dismiss your critically injured pets and summon new ones. They will appear fully healed.

https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Power_Pools

Power Pools are supplemental power sets available to all archetypes, beyond the primary and secondary power sets selected during character creation. A character may select powers from up to four power pools per build. Unlike primary and secondary archetype power sets, a character may change their power pools during a respec. Each power pool has either four or five powers, which are unlocked at various levels, as described below.

Pool powers aren't as effective as their cousins in primary and secondary power sets. However, they can be used to cover a weakness in your power sets (Aid Self for a Blaster), provide support abilities to your teammates (Maneuvers for a Defender), or have a surprising twist or contradiction on your Archetype and power sets (Provoke for a Mastermind). The Travel Powers also come from the power pools. Utilizing power pools may require skipping one or more powers in the primary or secondary power sets of the character.

 

https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Medicine

Medicine is one of the powersets. It is one of the sets of Power Pools available to all heroes and villains. These powers grant very limited healing abilities

"You become an adept field medic, and can assist your team with basic healing needs. These close range powers should be performed away from combat because they can be interrupted."

 

https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Medicine#Aid_Other 

You heal a single targeted ally. This power is interruptible unless you have also trained Field Medic, in which case it is not interruptible.

 

.... but ....

... is much quicker and doesn't require a power pick or slotting.

.... and that is why I usually pick a secondary on a mastermind where I DO have a decent heal from keeping all my minions a live and active ...

Electricity does a great job on a mastermind. Heal, grant some end recovery, and an AoE shield! Target a nearby minion, and you most likely will get healed and buffed as well!
