Hey, I'm kinda new to CoH and just read this thread. Good original post, and many interesting points in the later posts.

I have a AR/Energy Blaster at lvl 16, and my question is if the points made in the original posts (and in later posts) still are valid, after patches etc? I mean, what has changed since it was posted?

Also, I'm kinda unsure about the the usefulness of Energy Manipulation as my secundary power. How do I make the best use of it?

Thanks
