It might be easier to just point you to a number of tools that you can use instead. The wiki and redtomax's stuff should cover most of your questions. Mid's and Titian Sentinel cover dealing with builds.

Part of Pajiba's review on it. A number of the comments say it's worth going to and mention how faithful it is to the book.

Sales don't validate, or condemn a rating for it. My often used example is Britney Spears since her first two albums sold over 32 million copies. I don't care if Transformers 2 sold over 400 million. It still was nowhere near a good film. The first one was decent. The first Pirates film was good, but anything I have seen from the following ones did nothing for me. People want entertainment. Critics want art. Sometimes those come together, ie new Planet of the Apes, LotR, etc... Sometimes they don't, ie Transformers, Iron Giant, Almost Famous, etc...

It's Posi's baby. It's the devs new shiney that they can use to get people playing and playing. I don't need to check the temperature in Hell to know this isn't going to happen. I wouldn't go down there to check anyway. They don't serve breakfast in Hell.

I think one issue with the incarnate system that doesn't really get talked about is slotting a T4 is just too expensive. Not only do you need the drops for a T4, you need to craft two T3s. Think about what needs to be done for a T4 Destiny. You have to unlock the alpha slot, interface slot, destiny slot, craft two T3s and then get the salvage for the actual T4. How about no? Many consider the T4 not worth it. Why? The cost for the reward is simply out of whack and since players "have" to max out their characters, this adds even more to the grind. This says nothing of the number of things that can be unlocked for your characters via the trial rewards like e-merits.

Funny thing I just thought of for Fire/shield. You could nuke and not lose your mezz protection. Ar/shield for rolling nuke goodness.

IIRC, CoH was built like this before it was released, but the devs changed it in part because tank mages were about the only thing rolled.

In snow.

I don't see why you can't have 3 slotted damage and an end reduc in there as well. All the more so if you are looking at getting sets. (thinking) The only sets I could really think as being an end drain would be Stone and SS due to the Rage crash. If you don't use Mid's you should. Go here and get it. Also use the Titian Sentinel link so you can log into the game, tab out, and then use the utility feature to export your build into Mid's form. This way you can post what your build currently looks like.

The 3 I listed all have PBAoE auras which means they play well with Time's PBAoE. No other builds that get Time has one. I think from a concept point of view Ill/time is amazing, but I just can't see myself rolling one.

Facing +5x8w/b while SKed with you and the farmer is going to out weight being on a full 2xp exp team.

It's that way for some people. I did not mean to imply it was an issue for you.

Did AE make it harder to find a redside team? Yes. I wouldn't say it's difficult to find them there though. Certainly not on Virtue. Virtue LFG Beta is a really good channel for getting teams on Virtue. Speaking of AE, players on either side can get to RWZ and run normal AE missions and there is no need for side switching. RWZ can be gotten to via Atlas and Cap, so it's easy for lowbies to get there as well.

It's more like someone putting a nice healthy meal in front of you with vegetables and then saying, "After that there is ice cream and cookies." How slow are you going to eat that meal?

Because mine will sell before yours. Not that it matters in vast cases, but if I'm in the sell it now mode, it works. Hell, I have bought Kinetic Weapons for 1 influ and relisted for 1 influ just to work on the selling badges and made influ doing so. I really don't feel like sweating 4 influ when I'm making billions.

Salvage will be even more out of whack due to 2x exp weekend. I honestly sell my salvage for 1 influ.

They said 8 hours a day.

CEBR and Lowbie Farming Maps

CEBR was done in 5. I can only see getting to 50 in 3 if somebody is PLing you. 30 hours from normal play I highly question the phrase normal play. You may now wipe the shock off of your face that these are in the brute forums. The kicker is SS/fire isn't the ideal build for these and can be done with normal builds that still meet the AoE requirements.

Fact. Slowest leveling I did during 2xp weekend was running radios at +2/+3 and I do have the day job badge for mission completion bonus. If that's massive exp, then what is doing a WTF instead? I could have done a Posi and 1-2 TFs easily in that time frame and gotten more exp for it.

The one that is actually exciting to watch, so the American kind.

Early contacts you can call after 1-2 missions. The higher up ones will make you wait longer. I think a recent contact that only had a short arc waited until I was 75% done before I got their number. Granted, it might have been after mission three, but it just felt odd to wait that long.

Let's walk though this. Do I think I am a bad player? No. Because I don't think I'm a bad player, I don't expect my teammates to due a lot. Because I don't expect my teammates to die a lot, there is no reason to take a 2nd rezz. I'm probably even competent enough to where I can support my teammates using the primary that the game deemed to be good enough to support a team. Because of this, I don't need to use the Med pool at all.

Now, you may suck bad enough at playing an Emp that this doesn't match up with your thinking and in that case don't play an Emp at all. Or maybe even a defender although FF is like Defender for Dummies.

I will second the controller recommendation based on your like of support and not caring about damage mindset.
