  1. Dragon bracer with Flat Blades. I like it and cant see me changing until I get Talsorian. Then I want some ice looking ones as well
  2. I was sure I posted a compliment but I cant find it now. Nice work Psy

    The ONLY thing I would like to see different about the FF powerset is a different colour bubble for PFF and Detention Field, so people can tell them apart from the rest.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well Detention Field has that ring effect around the captured foe but it does tend to get slightly hidden once Dispersion Bubble is over it. Tho its unlikely to happen and look downright silly, I'd love a big arrow and the words "YOU CAN'T DEFEAT THIS ENEMY FOR NOW" under the captured target

    I like to stand next to the untouchable enemies doing a funky dance along with a message to the team not to attack this one 'till the lizard stops dancing

  5. There's nothing to stop the two tanks both running aura's really. If an Ice Tank turns off CE then the whole team suffers as it had a -dam component. Invul wont want to turn off invince and as stated WP wont want to turn off RttC

    WP and Inv tanks will want to be in the group for the longest though, and other tanks can fetch mobs for them and take care of strays
  6. 10ish sounds reasonable, my bodyclock is screwed at the moment so 9am may be optimistic

    [/ QUOTE ]So change the set name to negative blast.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That would never work.
    What a pointless set that would be.
    It would fail every time.
    What's the point of trying?

    That negative enough?

    Assault is for the most part pointless as Spirit says but I have it for 2 reasons:

    1: Maneuvers is poo (unless you're gonna slot it with something a LotG +rech which again is largely pointless with kin)

    2: For that bit of extra dmg before you get your first Fulcrum Shift off

    All your endurance worries are over once you get Transference (slotted anyway). Difference is just how often you need to bash that button

    Assault = Slot 1 - 2 end reds (if you even want to run it?)

    Maneuvers = Just the basic 1 - 2 end reds. This power is basically pointless as the defense is so puny. Unless you plan on doing some interesting things with IO sets such as LotG etc dont get this power.

    Tactics: Mix of end red and tohits with focus on end red. I havent looked much at the new tohit sets so I can't really say anything about that yet.

    I'd have thought the Chance For BU proc in it would be nice unless you relied only on the imps for damage

    WP guide?

    A PL'd character might not write the best guide until after its been played a while as well you know
  10. I only have one Rad blast more than that. I have Electron Haze as well. I rarely use it but its handy for the flyer in the STF and things like that.

    Iradiate - Multistrike set
    Cosmic Burst - Acc/Mez, 3 Dam/Range
    Electron Haze - Acc/Dam, 2 Dam
    Neutrino Bolt - Not in Tray

    adding on

    Thunderstrike - Sirroccos Dervish set
    Sands Of Mu Vet
    Blackwand Vet

    Most of the time I only use Iradiate + debuffs + powersink except for AV fights when I use thunderstrike and Cosmic Burst more
  11. Should be on new years day, might be late depending when I come round, I mean wake up

    Happy new year guys
  12. The only rad attack that would be worth it would be Iradiate really as it has a nice high % to start with. but to be honest I dont know what you'd have to be fighting to need extra debuffing in your rad blasts
  13. Am getting the impression you might have died a bit on the way? Did you consolidate your debt?

    Grats on your 50

    MoG isnt really worth it

    There are too many things that can [censored] pwn u

    Revive is worth it becoz of the amount of times u will face plant

    [/ QUOTE ]

    MoG is all about knowing your enemy and when to use it. Yes, sometimes it might decrease your chances of survival rather than improving them, but when used in the right situation there are still many times where it will save your [censored].

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Nice to hear someone else say something good about MoG. Only had it for 17 bars of XP and its kept me alive plenty of times already. If you know what you're fighting its a 100% safe power to activate
  16. I have an Ice/Blades at the moment that is slowly leveling up on an SG team.

    WEAKEN is my advice from blades. It has made a big difference since I picked up that combo. Blades are very end heavy though, and I dont plan to take the whole set. I also want sweep. Am basically looking to get damage mitigation from the blades rather than damage as they seem quite poor on that front.

    For survival on fire obviously you're looking at healing flames as your main tool.

    Dont really know a vast deal about fire tanks and am only just learning dual blades so will leave it there. I think its probably a good combo but might be a tough one to fit everything in. I'd be more concerned about slots than power picks cause it seems slot heavy in my mind

  18. I have lots of small things to do that weekend, err this weekend, um then and I dont know for sure how long I'll be able to be around, if I am

    You'll want Integration ASAP (I know you're not able to yet, but when it becomes an option take it). Its your status protection (stops you getting held) and also it gives you your base Regen rate. I'd pick up Dull Pain and quick recovery soon as well but yes you do want a travel power and Hasten will only improve your healing rate (it will bring Dull Pain and Reconstruction back quicker)

    I dont tend to use Instant Healing on my regen unless I need to. Its duration is only a minute and can really pull you out of a bad situation. I'd rather have the other powers in and slotted first to stop the bad situation in the first place though
  20. I like having two fully slotted holds on a blaster where available, I'd take that over the leadership pool. Means you can hold bosses. Unless you have some plan for the slots in Aim and BU I'd just slot them 3 rech and leave it at that. Oh and I'd try to fit hasten in (you wont hear me say that often but I think you'll benefit more than you would on most builds)

    Is this a PVP build? If not with the damage mitigation you have there's no need for Aid Self for PvE. If you're in a team you should be fairly safe, if you're solo you should get most problems delt with by Ice Patch and your two holds (see my first comment)

    Also if you're going elec epic it can only be for EMP. Fantastic mitigation and well worth having.

    Of course if this is a PvP build ignore most of the above, though having both holds fully slotted would still help for solo or zonal I'd imagine

    Exactly. If I know a time I can try to be on, if I dont I will just log in when I feel like it (which isn't all that much at weekends when sleeping and reading are also options)
  22. Was good to see you ding on the LGTF on Sunday mate. Grats on another 50
