Thanks for the reply.

He's already lvl 43 so no worries about the single target damage.

I haven't respec'd yet but I have started IO'ing my old build out and with the recharge and end bonuses im not really waiting for consume as much as before...so I may try and fit it in somewhere.

Please take a look at my build and tell me what you think.
I did rush it so there are a few mistakes like the missing 5th slot in ring of fire but i'll do the fine tuning later.

My idea for this build is to leave out consume (I hate having to rely on such a long recharging power) and get as many end bonuses from sets as I can...along with a nice bit of recharge and acc.

I haven't played this tank in over a year and I made him a new cossie last night and thought .....damm he looks good, im gonna have to play him now

No PL f0 j00!!

I have been very inactive for quite some time now because of defiants lack of PvP.
Its very hard for me to reroll and play on union while my main is on another server.....I know that sounds dumb but thats just the way my brain works.

So when server transfer comes I will be transfering Window Licker over to Union, and becoming much much more active....cant wait to start PvPing with you union boys again
and the eX defiant people who jumped ship (TG )

"I'll woop ya head boy"

[ QUOTE ]
One of each. I like having either an empath or a kin when playing my Rad. Both help muchly.

Play the one you like the most, get someone else to play the other

[/ QUOTE ]

Funny you should say that, I actually ended up rolling both, a rad/son and a kin/psi, i'll just lvl them both.

Thanks for the input guys

Ok what would you rather have on your TF to speed things up... a Rad/? or a Kin/?

Im gonna be making a dedicated TF hero and im a bit undecided between the 2.

ty for help

And it is still very easy, even with the nerfs to imps

If I make an effort to IO out my ill/storm on saturday, you can certainly count me in

LionsBane:

The problem is not that aid self is overpowerd (I dont believe it is) its that you are trying to mix concept with PvP, this is a mistake 99.9% of the time.

Ever tried PvPing a M.A.N build /e Shudders

EDIT: me spelin aint so gud.

Hehe, yep it is all that.
I too have seen it in action...i was so impressed I rolled one
You da man Stalk!\

TBH these guys dont know what they are talking about, get group fly and group TP and no one will be able to touch you in PpP!

Ice/em fire/em blaster
Ill/ice/Storm/rad troller
Rad/psi rad/son storm/son storm/psi defender
ice/em fire/em tank
spines/regen spines/SR BS/regen BS/SR

If you want a dueling build on heroes any of them will do the trick....from personal experiance Ice/em blaster and Rad/psi when played well will pretty much Pwn all!

Oh and Illusion/Storm is also very powerful imho

Just out of interest where can I see these S4 vids?

Thx for the warm welcome back guys

Hold the cake though cause my come back is being held up till next week when my new PC comes

I logged in and tried playing a couple of nights ago and it was like watching a slide show, I dont remember it being that laggy before I took my break

PS:Whens I9 coming???//??/??!!!11!11omgwtfbbq!11!111!!***

Hey fellow CoXers, just thought I would pop in and say "hello I'm back!1".

I been away for quite a few months and missed the game so much, I just logged in and my Global friends list is empty so anyone that knows me please trow me a global @Aphex Twin.

Hope to see some old friends in game

OK I have 2 more for the list with 2 more coming not long after that.

WindowLicker? fire/kin/fire troller

AphexTwin? Ice/EM blaster

And can you update my other troller Window Licker he now has primal mastery.

I will try and be there...only just seen this so I may be late.

EDIT: Not gonna make it unfortunatly...47 minutes of DL till my test client is ready

*Grumbles* Stupid formating *Grumbles*

It's RyStorm. He's like one of the best PvPers in the US.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, have a look on Youtube..he has made some good PvP vid's

If you PvE slot it 3 rchg 3 heal...if you PvP slot it 3 rchg 3 heal

It still has a big defence buff but the +HP is a massive + anything that hits you ...tickles really.

OK im gonna throw my hat into the ring here...Having a lvl 50 Ill/Storm myself and I PvP alot with it and it Kind of Pwns ..so here's my build.


It's full of HO's atm but they have only just gone in.

I haven't duel'd anyone whith the HO's in yet.

Not nececerily powers in that order..I only really PvP at lvl 50 so power selection for me isn't an issue.

I did't bother with Lightning storm or Phantasm...they are OK for PvE but the dmg and usefulness in PvP is minimal.

If you want to see it in action PM me or send a global tell to @Aphex Twin

PS:I would have loved to fit Steamy mist into the build but alas....no room(start the fight off in SI then switch to Steamy mist During battle....Use SI to drop toggle debuffs once its recharged )

I reckon a stormie would beat most /sr easy enough.

Most regens too

[/ QUOTE ]

You would think that wouldn't you...but in practice its not that simple..cause of the slow resistance it makes it easy for the SR to get away from tornado and FR.

I would say im pretty good 1v1 with my Ill/Storm and I always have problems vs SR, although saying that the last time I fought one was before I spec'd my build so it might even swing my way now.

PS: Ill/Storm Pwns Rgn!

Stalk is dead on the money I hate to say

Although I still say PB doesn't boost -res
