    This.
  2. While I have never played a FF past low levels, I have played Sonic and I would go for that one.

    Not only does sonic halve incoming damage but placing Disruption Field on an ally will severely weaken any baddie's resistance around that toon.

    Cold is also a friggin awesome set. However if we are talking strictly Sonic or FF, I would choose Sonic.
  3. Would plants/thorns also be decent in PvP?

    Thanks for the suggestion! Is there another the comes close?

    Genius!

    I actually have 2 of them sitting on a hero...when GR comes out ill switch em over.

    Thanks for the suggestion!

    I guess slows are a forte of Ice/Rad, with LR and the blasts. Ice Storm and LR would slow a group pretty well. IMO the problem is that slows are a nice side effect rather than a goal. So while I love the slows on LR, Sleet, etc, I generally skip powers that are explicitly slows (like Snow Storm, even though its a pretty beastly slow).

    Ice/Rad is a great all round team and TF char though. High ST damage for bosses and AVs, fantastic debuffs and a highly desireable team buff in AM. The AoE is a little on the weak side, as you've noted. Frost Breath is fairly meh and while awesome, Ice Storm just doesn't make up for a lack of a proper TAoE like Fireball.

    Thanks! At least I will have something to look forward during his last 9 levels...Now..if only I had an End Game build...>_>
  7. Hey all..Ive tried a couple dominators back in the day and never had luck (blah blah same ol' story :P)


    Im basically looking to try one and put some effort into it. I LOVE AoE and cant get enough of it...I would like a dom that is great in PvE and at least decent in PvP..

    What are some great pairs for that?

    I figured /thorn would be a good choice...Looking at mids, it seems to be strong and AoE-tastic. It's Lethal/Toxin but I can get over that :P

    What would pair well with Thorns?

    Also, there is a moderate chance that i will wait 3 weeks and make an elec dom for my GR toon...

    Thanks for reading and I look forward to your responses!
  8. Hello all,

    I've had this Ice/Rad for over 2 years I would say...the last year he's been shelved at lvl 40 partly due to breaks and no desire to play him.

    Frankly, I don't even remember why I made him but I don't want to delete him because he's my highest villain on my home server.

    My question is, what are Ice/Rad's good at? TF? Teams? PvP? Farms? (lol) AV's?

    I guess my main issue is because I am an AoE *****..I hate the idea of only using ST attacks so I even grabbed Frost Breath, but I don't like it so I never use it. Ice Storm isnt bad AoE damage tho I suppose...

    TL;DR:

    What are some of Ice/Rad's specialties?

    Thanks in advance!
  9. Ok cool...I think ill give it a shot!

    Am I a healer?

    do we say build in this game?
    Yes sir.

    Quote:
    again, do we use class here?
    We tend to use AT here at CoH/V. AT stands for archetype and is essentially the term used to seperate different types of characters. Blasters, Tankers, Controllers, Defenders etc. are all different ATs

    Quote:
    Thank goodness this game allows for me to have two separate builds (?). I will probably have to ignore my first build for awhile until I can change it.

    (I will need to look up when a character can and how a character can change a build)
    Indeed, it wasnt always like that but im glad it is now hehe. Once you get to lvl 24, you can do a respec (or respecification) trial. Upon completion, this will let you re-choose your your powers up to your current level. Also, as you spend more time in CoX you will gain veteran rewards will can sometimes offer you free respec's as well..

    Here are two sources that I cherish and can become dear friends for you:

    http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page (A smorgasbord of information about this game)

    http://www.cohplanner.com/ (A hero builder used to avoid making mistakes as much. It lets you see power descriptions, real-time stats and lets you build all the way to 50!)

    Good luck and welcome to a game that has kept me coming back for 5 years!
  11. I see..thanks!

    What about if you proc up DM? Would it still be sub-par?
  12. Hey guys...which one is better?

    And may I have an explanation please?

    Thanks!

  14. Really? I was under the impression that it was a weak set? Did the minor tweaks make that much of a difference?

    So, do you suggest that I take Pet Gaze?

    2. Moonbeam's not worth taking if you only give it two slots, and spending money on purples just for +regen on a squishy is a waste of inf. Take Veng instead and put in another -KB and LotG.
    Do suggest vengeance over PG?

    Quote:
    3. Your HP is still pretty low. Try to get it past 1450 if you can, preferably upwards of 1500.
    Im working on getting some +HP accolades. Other than that I have no clue how to configure set bonuses to give me that much of an increase..lol.

    Thanks for you input!
  16. Ok, I took a little of everyone's builds and I made a better version of mine. Now, I know that a dark/dark Defender is not gonna be raking in the kills, but Ive had this toon for a long time and I think I will enjoy it.

    Here is the new slightly more expensive build. It doesn't have all the trimmings that I would like (mostly because im poor :P) and it will take a while before I get those apocalypse's..but this is the current plan:

    A Question

    Quote:
    No, it's the Defending AT.
    FF/, Cold/, Traps/, Trick Arrow/, Sonic/...none of those heal. My own Sonic/Sonic never needs to heal. They can be healers, but it's not required.

    Brute PvP Build

    I don't think /EA is good for PvP..but I could be mistaken.
  19. Thanks for the suggestions! I will definitely incorporate some of your builds into mine.
  20. Shut up Nex...lol.

    Anyway, based on further consideration I have further tweaked the build...just changed regen bonuses for +HP bonuses and added a kismet...

  22. Hey all,

    Im trying to find use out of my current D4 and I feel as though he can we well as an arena PvP'r.

    This is a build that I made and I would like it to be critiqued. I don't have endless pockets but I think I will be able to afford this.

    Thanks!
