    Thats exactly what happens to my friend. He is premium, but can play kheldians no problem. Maybe because he unlocked the AT before Freedom?

    Would love to have an official answer about this issue.

    Hi all,

    My friend, who started playing at EU Beta (and stopped a few months after the game went live) is able to play Kheldians, but no SoAs.

    Arent those two ATs supposed to be locked for Premium players? I'm asking because my friend wants to play a Warshade, but doesnt want to see it locked in the future in case he can only play it because of a bug.

    So, can premium players play kheldians? Is my friend safe to roll one or should he stick to the noon-epic 10 ATs?

    Thanks

    Fire/Fire build?

    POST-ACTION

    Hi, I just returned from a loooong break (I left just after CoV went live) to see what goodies Freedom has brought

    I have undusted my fire/fire tanker, with her 53 SO build, and seems to perform well enough (after 3 respecs in a row...)

    I now want to build a IO build for her for farming/grouping (emphasis on grouping, I dont mind if the farming is "slow" since is already fast enough for me with SOs). Money is not a problem (as long as there are no purple sets), since I am enjoying playing the market and getting steady income

    I have never used IO sets before, so this is an entire new world for me. Any help would be very much appreciated!

    Thanks

    Hi there!

    I stopped playing just after coV came live. With CoX going F2P I have reactivated my old account, and started levelling a MM (Demon/Dark Miasma) while I try to understand all the changes (Market, IOs, etc)

    My MM is almost 50 now, he is slotted with normal IOs, didnt want to bother with sets until now. I have been playing with the Hero Builder, and after 1 hour I came with this

    I would like some criticism. I have been able to solo some AVs while levelling, I my main objetive is to be able to do that at 50. I dont think I will keep a VIP account so no incarnates for me, I will get the IO license monthly and thats it.

    Im not sure about some powers. Is Hasten really needed in a MM? Should I throw it away along with some other powers (Vengeance? Recall friend? I must say that I like having those powers fro grouping, specially RF) and get Tough/Weave? I also have one slot free that I honestly dont know where to spend

    Money is not a problem, I have been able to get a good amount of influ without ever trying, and I have a level 50 Fire/fire Tank in case I need farming.

    I want to build a powerful character, not necesarily able to farm, but would love to be able to solo +4/x8 with AVs (or at least, as much as I can).

    Also, is my understanding that having level 30ish sets usually works better beacause I will get more use from them when I exemplar down. Anyway I plan to have a SO build in case I dont want to pay for the IO license or if I exemplat too low (for Flashbacks, Hollows Trials, low level TFs...whatever). Am I right?

    Any explanation on why to change and why is welcome, since I want to learn from my mistakes, not just copy a build

    Thanks!
