If you do boxes with other builds besides hacker then youll realize how overpowered hackers are. Dont make the boxes harder for everyone just because they are too easy for hackers.

If you guys tried it with ma or a gun build youll see its not so easy. This just proves my point that the hacker builds especially howitzer and ballista are overpowered. I did a box 4 with about 12 people yesterday mostly with ma's and gun...

What builds are you guys using?

Me and 2 others finished box 3 in about 4 mins with viral attacks. 2 howitzers and one ballista. Box 4 was much harder and it timed out on us but we got to the final wave and killed several of them. We got a 4th person about half way throu...

Sure they do and your wrong on the timers. If I use a duelist ability all of the abilities for that tree have timers that dont let me use them. I have to wait a round. I can use abilities from other trees but then I get hit with a 1 round...

Alot of 47's sounds like your doing a pbox 3 mission. Hyper-dodge wont protect you from 30 npcs shooting at you. It might block a few of them but most will get through. Are you saying that none are being blocked? Whats your ballistic defen...

Actually you want to select your gun not self defense.

Unless your using viral attacks your style shouldnt be hacker. Switch it to self defense and your damage should go up.

Theres nothing wrong with hyper-dodge and with cr 2.0 your going to get hit more. No matter how hard you try to avoid it you will get hit inside and outside of interlock. You have to build your resistances so when they do hit they do very...

Thanks for reducing the decay. My angelic shoes lost 2 stability points during the event and I had to repair my bedlams twice. Message Edited by Renesis13B on 04-03-2006 02:19 PM

If you like to hang out at mara c and dont want to get attacked on vector create an alt and keep it below 16. Lots of people do this when selling items or when they just want to relax.

I agree its definately a problem right now. My bedlams lost 2 stablitiy points during a pbox 4 box. They are easy enough to get right now but if that was a hampton drop like a needler it would have hurt. I do remember reading a post from a...

Just for fun last night I loaded up some despoiler and howitzer abilities. Keep in mind my stats are all gunman and viral defense (27 belief and 30 focus). I had a total of 89 viral accuracy and I was able to clean out the npcs on the PBox...

I see what your saying but if theres an ability that only costs 1 mem point and is that powerful they are going to use it every chance they get. LiquidZ wrote: Renesis13B wrote: Im not sure how that would solve the problem. LiquidZ wrote:...

It might be releated but the stats screen is all screwed up. My accuracy and defense numbers vary so much day to day. I dont really understand why. Yesterday my viral deffense was 150 and now its 131. My ballistic accuracy was 117 and toda...

I think around 130-140 viral accuracy is the norm. Ive heard as high as 242 with upgrade attacks. Either your missing something in your loadout or your stats are set up wrong. I cant tell you how to do it since I dont use that tree but 100...

Thanks for the response HCFrog. I wish you could squeeze an update in before it goes live but I know time is very short right now. Theres some good feedback here about the issues with timers etc starting at around page 5-6. Message Edited...

MA's and Gun classes cant use specials back to back. They have to wait at least one round in between attacks while the timers expire. Hackers in interlock dont have this restriction which allows them to do more damage in less time than oth...

Im trying to make the game better and balanced. Im not trying to be selfish and destroy the game for you so I look better. Everything ive posted is accurate. My agenda is to make this game better not make my chosen class the most powerful...

Item decay has me worried also. My stuff has taken a beating on ep already.

Im not sure how that would solve the problem. LiquidZ wrote: I think what might correct this is putting viral accuracy back on the program launchers... TekMon, I understand what your saying completely. All of my testing the past couple of...

Npc balance and pvp balance are 2 different things. I still think the at interlock numbers are too high. Most are only a 10% difference which is basically nothing. If a fight takes 10 hits outside of interlock it only takes you 11 in inter...

Update 15 was the last patch so it hasnt been dealt with yet. They did make changes but it wasnt enough. I hope they make changes before it goes live but I havent heard anything.

Im a level 50 Duelist (Cant be a duelist without being level 50) and there are several interlock attacks I use and I get outrolled about 75% of the time in interlock for massive damage. Hackers should fear interlock but now they strive in...

Viral Accuracy of 242? Tell me one other class than can come anywhere near that number in offense or defense. I have no idea how an Akido GM can get that much viral defense. He must have been buffed to hell. I havent broken 165 with duelis...

You would rather have everyone using Hacker than Martial Arts? I find that really suprising and I think the majority of the players dont want to see that happen.

Funny how 90% of the pvpers are using viral attacks now. Whatever interlock penalties hackers have its not enough. If anything hackers rather be in interlock now since each round takes 4 seconds. They can launch an attack that does a lot o...

From what ive seen on EP so far hackers still have no problem getting hits in. Im also popping ab's like crazy with those dot abilities like Code Infection. Accuracy isnt that important if you can land attacks than do a ton of damage every...

Ive been fighting hackers on ep since this patch and im still getting destroyed in interlock. MA's I can handle but hackers still outroll me in interlock as a duelist with 30 focus. For those saying you cant heal in interlock is bs. Ive do...

Penalty is still not enough. Im still getting hacked to death in interlock with duelist loaded and 30 focus. Ma's are fine but getting into interlock with a hacker and im as good as dead.

Why not just use a hybrid build? Load some Viral hacks and patcher. If you get stuck in interlock you can heal yourself until you can roll out. Possibilities are there if you take the time to find them. If you stick with only 1 type of com...

HCFogs post made the points I was trying to make but hes a LOT better with words than I am. Message Edited by Renesis13B on 03-23-2006 05:10 PM

MA cant do much outside of interlock and Hackers arent an interlock class so I dont see the problem. You cant have the best of both.

My highest viral defense ive been able to get as a duelist was like 165. Having 200 viral accuracy and having no way for another class to get 200 viral defense is called overpowered. Its the same thing on live now with viral transmission s...

Hackers have been overpowered since the beginning of time. I say dont stop at this..keep going..Nerf away!

If you use any of the operative tree load up to Sideroll escape in the spy tree. Everytime ive used it ive rolled out of interlock on the first attempt. Ive done this as kung-fu and duelist/smg/rifles. You dont have to be a spy to use it....

Check out the spy tree. Theres a nice little ability in there that will allow you to roll out 100% of the time. Takes up some memory but worth it imo.

I loved that launcher and without it my IS regen is horrible. I wish they would have left it alone...now ill have to spend 30 mil for some widow moor lenses..if I can even find them

If thats true then his ballistic resistance is way to high compared to his melee. The most damage ive ever done with a gunslinger/rifles build was 77 dmg. Most hits are 20-30dmg. The Leo wrote: I can solo the zero one archive boss alone an...

Those numbers are fine. Your highest ability there is a level 11. Canceling your account because you dont know what your doing is foolish. Learn the new system like everyone else had to do or leave...Dont threaten the devs over this. Messa...

Most abilities that require a state do a lot of damage especially to npcs. Npc resistance is probably too low.

The health regen you can get with stacking Fast Healing 1.0 and Fast Healing 2.0 is rediculous. Its one reason why they are so hard to kill but if you hit them with Cancel Upgrade 2.0 they are screwed.

I have the old Caution boots with 50% speed and they work just fine on ep.

Thats my experience exactly but The_Wendigo is saying something different.

Im having a similiar problem to Liquidz. With Duelist getting states like dazed or staggered on an opponent is near impossible during interlock. Outside of interlock its easy but it rarely happens during. Message Edited by Renesis13B on 03...

Looks like the hampton guns have been fixed already.

There were a couple of other people there yesterday when I went and they couldnt do a lot of damage either. I still think my numbers are right and yours are wrong. Can you please go back there with duelist and try it again. Email your hamp...

As a level 50 duelist with some smg and rifles loaded my Dual Pistol Execution using bedlams does 58 damage to the taskmaster. I dont understand how you could be doing 200+ damage with bedlams. I can do 225 damage if I use a stinger, lance...

What gun were you using? Those numbers are way too high. If your using a hampton hideout gun (stinger, lancet or needler) then that would explain it. Those guns havent been converted yet and shouldnt be used for balance testing.

Seems really high since my strongest duelist attack only does like 60 dmg.

I heard hacker is bugged and doing more damage than its suppose too. How much damage were you doing to the taskmaster?

I have the launcher. You said you soloed him if im not mistaking. Message Edited by Renesis13B on 03-06-2006 06:48 PM

I spent some time trying to kill the Taskmaster in 01 today as a level 50 duelist using bedlams. I had no problem hitting him but the damage was only around 30-55 or so I ran out of innerstrength way before I could kill him. I got his heal...
