wesslen Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 (edited) 1 day, 3 respecs, and 2 T4s later - version 2 both performed better and is more fun to play. I don't like running with full mez protection as it basically removes one of the very few reasons to actively consider the enemies we're fighting, as opposed to treating them all as interchangeable target dummies. Unfortunately with the previous version I had to run Clarion to survive 4x8. The new version survived even using Ageless (after a few attempts to figure out the tactics), which is a lot more fun to play IMO. (Changelings kind of work like Blasters while mezzed, in that only some of the attacks are available.)

I'm happy to see the amount of commitment to chase some desired results. Tactics definitely come into play in here, which can help progress participants playstyles.

Auroxis Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 (edited) First Sentinel Benchmark: Dark Blast / Rad Armor Sentinel Pylon - 113s +0x8 w/ Bosses - 333s +4x8 w/ Bosses - 525s Comment: Sentinel's reliance on 10-target AoE nukes and the lack of a taunt aura really hurts solo clear capabilities. But Blackstar debuffs with Rad Armor makes you very tanky. Putting the runners issue aside, Ground Zero + Aim + Blackstar + Dark Obliteration is a very strong AoE opener.

mezzosoprano Posted October 16 Share Posted October 16 I wanted to try this with my Plant/Storm Controller, but the mission has too many spawns in the deep water. For several of those spawns, I could not reliably fire Tornado or Carrion Creepers. (I use macros to drop those at my current target. When the target was in deeper water, the power wouldn't fire, requiring me to unselect a target, click the power, then manually click a spot of shallower water.) All of that really threw off my muscle memory and timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of that really threw off my muscle memory and timing. I've thankfully not ran into that yet, as I too enjoy using macros for location AoEs. I'll try to block out some time when I get back from my work trip to replicate it and put a ticket in. I'd recommend doing the same, perhaps we can get some attention towards the issue.

Auroxis Posted Tuesday at 10:44 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:44 PM (edited) The other day I discovered Adrenal Booster from Experimentation has really good values on Tanker so I decided to give it a go on the test server: Bio/Axe Tanker Pylon - 81s +0x8 w/ Bosses - 211s +4x8 w/ Bosses - 300s Tanker (Bio Armor - Battle Axe).mbd Edited 3 hours ago by Auroxis Updated Pylon time from 84s to 81s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobbledigook Posted Tuesday at 11:03 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:03 PM (edited) Maybe dps to survivability should be judged also. Some of these Pylon builds look far less sturdy than they should. Why? so you can whack a static target that doesn't fight back with procced attacks? Also add a fun factor rating to builds/powers also 🤪 Edited Tuesday at 11:08 PM by Gobbledigook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Blasters have done it? If a Blaster can do it then i would say any AT can, so that test looks to be completed. Is it best of the best or best in class? a Stalker could not compete in clearing vs a Brute for example. Maybe do a test with SO's only after this. A comparison between basic AT builds on SO's vs the potential of a full IO procced build. Edited yesterday at 02:13 AM by Gobbledigook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not done the new Pylons only the old and best i got was 89 seconds and that was a freak, usually around 1.40-1.45 with hybrid on. SS/Bio Tanker. Maybe i should give axe a whirl 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
