  1. Nice!! I love it! A very good thread!

    Here is my two cents (PVE only; dont play much PVP):

    1. I am sure most of us are blasters at heart. I know I am. But one thing you can do to generally improve your game overall, is to play all of the other AT's to a reasonable level. Oh sure, some of them may seem downright boring, but you learn a HECK of a lot that you can apply to your blaster techniques, especially when teaming. For example, even something as basic as, "Please don't kill the anchor". If you don't know what this means, you may be annoying others, but also you may be hurting yourself in the process.

    2. For a while I thought purple pills were my friends. Now, I don't use them as much, only when I'm in a jam and by then it is usually too late! Range... is a wicked power! At first I was disappointed when I took Boost Range, but my goodness. Nothing like thinning out the numbers before they can even get a shot off! Moral of the story is, range is power.

    3. Learn to adapt. If there is one thing that I think Blasters do well, its adapting. Forget all the "devs hate us, we need to be fixed" threads, work with what you got. If something doesnt work, like the man said, try something else, or give it another shot if you're confident. I also think a good idea is to find out which combo will kill what the fastest. Later in the levels, it seems as though we are killing the same type of thing alot more often than early in the levels. So find out which combo works the best.

    4. If you have knockback, use it wisely. Instead of punching something across the room into another group and thus killing your entire team, knock the dude towards your group,or better yet, into a wall so the scrappers and tankers can wail on them. My goal for knockback is to usually get the guy into a wall and keep knocking him into that wall over and over and over, maiking sure he does not move from the wall. Or maybe knock him into Burn or something else like that. Use knockback wisely. Learn this early in the game.

    There's more, but Id rather go home and play COH than stay at work!
