So, I realize that this thread is about two years old, but I just stumbled across it... Is the information in it still valid? If so, what exactly does this mean in terms of practical application? Should I start saving up and focus on getting my toons IO'd out with level 25-30 enhancements? What comes after that? Do I just hang onto those and I upgrade to higher levels as I have the influence?

Boy, to have known all this stuff going in would've been tanfastic. I've got a level 17 fire/fire blaster and it's been working pretty well for me so far... but I *do* seem to make a lot of trips to the hospital... As of right now, I've been alternating between primary and secondary powers, never skipping any. So, on the primary side, I've got:
Flares
Fire Blast
Fire Ball
Rain of Fire

and for secondary:
Ring of Fire
Fire Sword
Combustion
Fire Sword Circle

My travel powers include fly and hover... Like others, my character is a concept character so I don't want to go too crazy in which pools I choose from... but what would you guys suggest I do next? Should I start looking at other pools entirely, or just keep doing what I'm doing?
