Why doesn't it have +15 to poision resist

I think it should do you

Why is the PP chip ingame then?

Whats so huge and overbalancing with +15 poison?
BECAUSE +15 poison is overkill HURR HURR???

i Say give it +15 to POR, and then +3 to CON. Muh.

I don't see any reason why this would be unbalanced.
Chip should've had it to begin with, though.

15-02-04, 22:00
nah.. the dev does fire damage above poison anyway.... my melee pe has 0 poison, and can still kill a dev tank ( most of them, not the really leet ones )... it is all in the inquisition and fire resist...

anyway.. back on topic...

Resistor seems like it should carry +15 poison.

Heavyporker
15-02-04, 22:14
naw...

if it gonna give POR, then lower all the + resists on it to +10

then it'll be fair. you gotta consider it in relation to all the other faction items.

Hows it giving it +15 all unfair?

While I do like the idea personally, I think it would be too much compared to the other ER rewards. It's already an insanely good chip.

Boost the really wank rewards first (DRE I'm looking at you).

Here's an idea you add the +15 of poison resist and fix that epic reward? ...or is that too much work to do for a company getting payed to provide this game and listen to ideas/complaints/thoughts towards their product?

Changing all the bonuses on the PPR to +10 to make this change wouldn't be "fair" it would make the chip WORSE than it was when it didn't have poison.

I wont say how stupid that idea was ¬.¬

Same number of points but evenly spread.

seems the only thing tanks and apus want to use nowadays is poison devourer and poison based spells. Poison is an attack, a chip which is based on resists should include all resists not just almost every resist but one.

Depends on how your char is setup. Tbh for many people it would make it worse as the points lost would be in the 2XP/point bracket not the 1XP/point one so maybe it would need a little extra somewhere. I wouldn't go for 15 all round though, it's too much, too easy.


/edit : @QD - yeah :p.

fine, 12 to all resists.


and DRE gives a perfectly nice apartment, thank you.

Granted, its a little dingy, but its no less useful.


Actually, that gives me an idea - make two different DRE epics, but you can only do one...

One run would be no-pk, meaning tradeskillers, PPUs, and LEchipped guys can do this, but they get the dingy 15 cab OZ apt...

The other run would require PKing, but you get like a 8 cab version of the Diamond clan apartment - you know - the one with that FUCKING sexy front room with the 4 citycoms, huge meeting room, captains room, and that little side room with bed/GR/gogo? Granted, it has to be trimmed down - like no safe in the captain's room, only one bed/gogo/gr, fewer tables and benches, and only 2 citycoms in the front space on that pedestal.

On a devourer its not the poison that does most damage. And a poison beam is ssoooo weak its silly....25 poison stacks (<-count em) on a tank with about 30 Por and he outhealed it with TL3 and fucking medpacks.

Boost poison to an acceptable level of damage and i will agree with that change. Its not that i wont benefit from it (my mains got PPRs) but it just isnt fair.

ok use a non poison modded devourer and then tell me how effective it is. Until then your just bullshitting.

Boost APU poison beam

Boost various other epic rewards (for example DRE because, well you know :p)

It should also be in a DRE controlled housing area and have fixtures and features appropriate to the faction that awards it.

I really dont care about the poison bonus (or lack thereof) because in most cases now, I can pop a poison resist potion, use a basic resistor 2, and with my FH2 bonus I can out heal poison. So unless poison gets a massive boost I see no reason to change the PP chip, but if it does get changed then one of the other resist bonuses has to go.

All of my threads are true. :) When am I ever wrong? :D

In regard to the thread topic.
If there was a +15 POR on the PP Resistor Chip, I would consider using the Experimental Heart 2 instead of the Filter Heart.

Roughly Translated: omg yes! for diversitys sake!

SypH
16-02-04, 04:32
Well that is a point, cause lets face it, for the most part the other heart imps are next to useless.

Artie
16-02-04, 05:25
POR ISN'T A RESIST APPARENTLY YOU MONGS!!!


(according to KK logic, lol)


Apparently they have a good reason to exclude POR from the rest....for example...



(Late nite at kk)


Prog 1: Hey nubs, let's make por different from the rest!

Prog 2: OK!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111oneoneoen

Yeah, I love how a little chip in your brain can make you resist force (and subsequently pierce) damage more, but it can't make your brain release some hormone or endorphine or whatever that makes you resist poison more.

Heavyporker
16-02-04, 07:01
it isn't endorphin/hormone, really.

its more of enzymatic/antibodic in the case of organic poisons like from snakes - they shoot up horses with dilute snake poison then after a bit, draw out that blood. Serum and all that shit.


Brain chip prolly operates on the basis of numbing your nerves a bit so you can't feel shocks or burns as much. Wouldn't work well agsianst poison because it actually acts on the brain itself as opposed to fire.

Lifewaster
16-02-04, 07:14
I'm actually using the neg 15 poison heart atm, and I still get good poison resist.

The neg 15 just means u get +15 from hazard buff at ops instead of +30, so can adjust your con for that easy nuff, its just 3 levels worth.

Heavyporker
16-02-04, 07:24
that and the point that the +con, +hlt, and +end you get from said heart far outwieghts the measly -15.

I mean.. ffs... just about everyone on the face of Neocron has like 60+ in HLT... meaning that the +15 HLT saves you 30 points, minimum... more ppl prolly have 73+, meaning that the +15 HLT saves you 45 points! And the +CON gives you 10 more hp on top of that HLT.

And the +END is a boon to anybody that likes to run and shoot at the same time.

Believe me, that heart;s more than good.

Sheesh. What a buncha whiners.

Very true.

Basically you can only REALLY TRULY use a EXP/STR Heart if you're going to have no POR.
EXP Heart is even worse because of the XRR Malus, since most people aim for high XRR in CON, though this has been less of a problem since xray bones came in, it's still valid.

though for people with shit resists, EXPH/STRH2's are great.

A +15 to POR would help out greatly!

IceStorm
16-02-04, 08:53
then it should also give +15 Resist PSI...
I have over a cabinet worth of Defesive Psi Field 3 and Psi Resistor 3 CPUs. Resist Psi my ass. I wish they'd yank those CPUs from the drop pool and the subskill from Psi.

VetteroX
16-02-04, 09:21
its the pp resistor and posoin seems to grow in threat all the time... add 15 poosin to the resistor, if you have to change force to poison do it, but please add it.

Yeah, true. If KK saw this they would probably replace the +15 FOR to compensate but I'm a Tank and I already get a good amount of FOR with armor and imps (total is around 150-160 unbuffed), so having the +15 POR over +15 FOR is a huge advantage and something I'd give up in a second.

Spies wouldn't give a shit if they could work out that BR2 + Basically un-needed STR after a certain amount of TRA = PLENTY FOR.
o_O
APUs?
Like I said, they might care.
As an APU, though, I'd prefer to use MOVEON Most definately, at this point in time.

wrt Spies - Indeed. I have plenty of FOR on my spies.

wrt APUs - I rolled a new one a few days ago and I'm still working on that one - numbers wise the PP looks a lot better to me but I still kinda like the look of the MOVEON setup for some reason.

hehehe, there are more than one ways to use the moveon to get better con than PPR ....though I admit the difference is most noticable on a PE o_O (would be more on a tank but since most tanks use PPR+Moveon+marine+herc or something close to that anyway.....heh :p)

and?

it is an "resistor" so it should add to ALL resists, like some ppl said in this thread.

+15 NRG
+15 Fire
+15 Xray
+15 POR
+15 FOR
+15 Resist PSI

simple, and thats only 6 attributes so it would work, too!
