Team TP is nearly worthless, that's what I'm trying to tell you. For what you want to do, especially. And having it, plus Flight, means that you've got three power picks that could be going to something that makes your build better. Do you see what I'm trying to tell you?

Well, one of my AE arcs has you fighting mutated cows, chickens, sheep, and sheep dogs. I could probably modify it to a secret cow level.

Hey! Don't you dare age me a year! That's all I've got until I turn "old!"

This is the best idea I've ever seen here.

This is highly variable, and we can't tell you. We can GUESS how much it will cost, but I'm not sure how much that would do for you. Your build (the worse of the two, in my opinion) with all of the purples that you decided to go with, could cost in the billions. Mine might cost a few hundred million. However, it's dependent on you to place lower bids in the auction house and wait.

That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about why you took both Flight and Teleport.

Okay, see, it's things like that that would have been helpful BEFORE I made this. That's what I was asking for.

1) Why don't you use Hasten? If you want a lot of recharge, it's the easiest way to get it.

2) Why don't you use Aim? It's a decent damage buff, and you can make sure you hit stuff.

3) Snipes are good for what they do, but they're not great attacks. You shouldn't be using it all that often, unless you really need to pull.

4) I used level 40 enhancements because it puts in the max level enhancements of the set. Some sets don't go up to 50, but that doesn't make them worse. The enhancement values might be a little lower, but the set bonuses make up for it.

I took a look at the build you provided, and it's a lot worse. Your set bonuses are again all over the place. The sets that you do use you don't have enough in the power to get the bonuses you probably want, you're underslotting key powers for their effects, you've taken and slotted powers that you don't need, you haven't slotted Stamina, and again you've got two travel powers for seemingly no reason.

I honestly don't know what you're doing, and why you're doing it. I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just trying to understand why you'd ask for help, and then not actually take it.

Same rules will apply there, from what we've heard. First one to get a name gets it. I'm not sure how much of a "mad dash" there will be, but I'm sure that some people will go there to get some names. But if you're not intending to use that server much, having a really great name there won't do you much.

I'll probably use it to move characters I don't play much anymore off of their home server to free up the names there.

Eh, I'm not too worried about that. Unless they specify, I generally don't include any purples, and try to limit the number of high-influence IOs that I use. Sure, some recipes are fairly expensive, but most aren't worth 2 billion. I generally assume that people will work on the builds over time, and will be able to get there without too much farming.

It's an anteater who's not afraid to TAKE ON THE WORLD!!!!

Understood. Doesn't make it any easier for me to work it for him, though. I mean, let's say that I give him a build that is soft-capped to range, or something like that. But he doesn't care about defense, he just wants to shoot stuff fast. Recharge would have been better for him, and I could have built that way, had I known.

Basically, if I'm going to pimp out his ride, I'd like to know that he has an aversion to the color red before I paint it.

Yeah, this helps me not at all. What do you consider "balanced"? Do you just mean in terms of primary/secondary powers? Or do you want it to be able to do anything and everything?

What do you plan on using this character for? What is your general playstyle with him/her? Basically, give me some sort of direction to go with.

Is your build okay? Sure! Could it be made better? Definitely! Do I just want to throw random IOs on him and give him to you saying that he's been improved? No.

In theory, yes. However, a delay to one might not necessarily mean a delay in the other. I am betting that they will release them the same day, but they don't have to.

Yay! I'm successful at something!

This is still bugging me as well. None of what he is saying makes any sense to me about this. He's thinking of deleting a character to make a new one with the new powerset, but doesn't want to respec now because they take time? I really don't get what one has to do with the other. Then he's mad that he doesn't know how many slots he'll need for the powers in the new sets, when his current build schemes don't make any sense anyways.
