    Guess what, the devs side with him. You can snipe about it until your fingers turn blue, won't change a thing.

Sometimes you have to just deal with the sadly imperfect realities of life. I wish you luck.
    Bravo. Thank you for this.

    Thanks for your replys guys!

    The reason why i want to make a "sky's the limit" build in mid's is so i can have something to work for. Farming influence to eventually get that super rare enhancement is a lot of fun to me.

    Technically I modified Enigma's build a bit, the one that is posted is not exactly his because i wanted to see if i could modify a build i had no "real world" experience with and get feedback on it.

    I appreciate the info you guys have provided and i think i have come to a suitable conclusion on what to do.

    Thanks for the reply!

    Both of those builds are slightly modified versions of two builds from this thread: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=206450

    The 5 slotted hasten build comes from

Build Up, Shield Charge and lightning Rod are up every 26.6 seconds. I can farm Battle Maiden at +4 x8 with ease. I love, love, LOVE this build.
    ^^^That doesn't sound like too bad of a thing to me

    Do you have some examples that would be better? I want to solo farm. i don't care about pvp, nor does teaming matter for this build.

    Is the force feedback proc worth missing the 3.75% melee 1.88% smashing and 1.88% lethal defense (Considering how precious every percentage of defense can be in shield builds)?

    I appreciate your honesty and would like to improve upon a elec/sd build. It just seems like most of the builds i see end up being built for well rounded pve team player experiences, that people farm with instead of specific farming builds.
  4. Johnny_Rancid
    The first build has alot of recharge, but the second seems a bit more well rounded and surviveable.

    My goal is farming. I'm trying to find a balance of speed and defense. The faster they die the faster i can farm, but if i can't survive, the killing speed is pointless.

    Any tips on these builds? Any modifications you guys would suggest? I'm not worried about the price nor pvp.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    for as many "Sexy Kitten"'s there are out there, i figured someone would speak up and give an opinion from the other end of the spectrum.

    As long as they don't go overboard with it, I'm cool.

    what would you consider overboard?
  7. Johnny_Rancid
    i've noticed that alot of the role playing going on has been more people rp'ing "Sexy Kitty" or "Lil Puppy" than "Captain Awesome" or "Ice Queen".

    How do you guys feel? what would you like to see more or less of? Why? let me hear what you think!
