Jinse

Thank you once again for all the advice, I've started playing on Freedom red side.

I've tried Brute, and its okay, nothing to complain about, but I kinda went against the advice on starting an MM first.

I fell in love with bot/dark, I may not be the best at controlling the little buggers but setting them on defensive/follow and running into a group of creatures so I can spam twilight on them seems to work.

Only level 17 so far but dies a lot less then the Brute I started to, as in Brute died 4 or 5 times between 1 and 6, MM died twice so far, both in teams that took on a full room+boss and everyone wiped.

Suffice to say, even now I still don't know much about the game, like what the heck is an IO and SO ect?

Still planning on leveling my Brute up, might end up being more fun once I get past the "dies if I don't have any heal inspitations".

Oh I finally figured out how to set a chat handle so I'm now @Jinse on freedom. Thats a neat change for me, used to most other games where you base it off charicter names.

Thanks for all the advice.

As far as severs go, I'm currently on Virtue, but I don't mind going to another if one has a higher red population.

I like playing lots of different things, just wasn't sure what was going to fit me.

Two of you all mentioned MM with Bots, going to try that out for a bit and see how it works. I'll probably end up making a Brute as well since reading up on them a bit more.

I'm a bit of an altaholic since I like to try everything out eventually, was making this thread for advice so I could have a charicter I could solo mostly for a long while to learn the game basics before trying to get into a group and having no clue how to do anything.

As for coming up with a concept that fits for elemental type powers, I honestly didn't even think of that, not a bad idea at all, even if most of them still don't apeal to me for the most part, no reason I shouldn't try them out, I might supprise myself.

I've been reading up a lot on the forums about different builds for many different archtypes. I took a tanker to level 10 or so and a Corrupter to around level 8.

My problem is, I like the red side a lot more then the blue, but I don't see many people, atleast at the low levels, and my Corrupter is getting much harder to play solo now.

I keep reading that lethal damage really sucks later on but I can't see myself playing somone who does elemental punches or throws elemental type energy.

I guess I am looking to see what you all think is a solo friendly AT that uses some kind of weapon, and would still do okay picking up the occasinal group.

That or tell me how I could make my Corrupter a tad bit easier. (Even if I have to start it over again.)

Thank you.
