Plusone

Just tpying with a concept and was wondering if anyone had any experience with an Ice/Ment blaster. Seams like the -recharge would be significant and the two cone attacks would compliment nicely. Think it could take an AV?

I found the trick to IO's is in stacking the bonuses.
Yeah, a single 4% regen bonus is lackluster, but 5 of them and you see a difference.

Each individual bonus kinda sucks but you can do some monsterous specialization if you tweak the layout right.

Ok, I'm coming back to the game after a long absence, had some builds I wasnt quite done with I'd like to finish out, and wanted to check out GR, but anyway.

I played some other games in my absence, and in those games, since they were older games, most of the players had made it to endgame and had everything they needed and most quests done expcpt for the big nasties. And because of this top-heaviness I found these games to be rude to the point of hostile for a new player. I wasn't properly geared therefore I was insulted and discarded regularly.

I was wondering if that has happened here, or is this still a friendly place? When I left everyone was happy :-) Have no reason to expect otherwise, but just thought I'd ask.

Hiya, I left game a few months back and have decided to come back but can't remember where i downloaded Mids from, anyone got a link?

Thanks!

i played with this set in mids and am thinking i might do well frankenslotting for recharge and trying to pump out zombie bombs and other thing that go boom at the fastest rate possible. Think it'll work?

I'm working on a Necro Traps and am having a lot of fun with it, but im not finding any info on the combo and very little on traps itself. Can anyone help me out, some thoughts, tactics, links, anything about this combo you can tell me? Please help me smooth my ascension to the rank of Zombie Bomber. "Making Corpses Go Boom" would be an awesome name for a guide.

I really enjoy storm and want to play a stormymind but dont know which minions I should shackle to my control. Opinions?

I thought about goig outside of brute but i was worried about getting 1 shotted every time i enter melee, lol. I wanted to kill large swarms, and i just wanted the most hp i can get.

I'm working on an experimental build that uses the damaging auras as the primary weapon.

I know Dark Armor is weak on survivability, but i can slot 2 damage procs in the fear aura to give an added damage boost to the aura, and neg energy isn't often resisted.

I know fire does the most flat damage but is kinda squishy.

Is there another armor that might be better suited for this? I'm trying to decide which armor will give me the most survivability with a decent damage aura.

What do you guys think?

I wanna go with a /wpr build but am torn between fire and elec for my primary. Which one is a better AoE killer?

I''m not too worried about "normal playstyle". I don't know if I'll play my regener much past 50, it's more of an experiment than anything, i wanted to see just how high I could get passive regen. 115 hp per sec with 0 enemies is the best i've been able to get in mids, but I'm always looking to push it higher. Ive only gotten it to 30, I've still got a long time and a few billion inf to go.

I am a severe altaholic, tons of toons, none at 50, it's a sickness.

Anyway, I'm really interested in trying out the Arachnos soldiers and Khelds and such. SO I know I need to get something to 50.

What would be a good combo on each side, to get to 50 with minimal fuss and maximum haste, i'm not trying to spend a lot, I just want to rocket something on each side to 50 solo.

If you wanted to burn something to 50 alone, what would you build?

I decided to post my uber regen build, let me know if you guys can find any way to get the HP per sec regen higher. This is the best I've been able to do, lemme know if I'm missing something.

Ok,
I've sometimes got a weird play style. I solo and am not concerned too much with speed killing. I made an Ice Armor/Stone Melee Build designed to jump into the middle of a big mob and stand there until his damage procs and Icicles kill everything nearby. I know its odd, but it lets me multitask real life and gaming more easily. I have slotted primarily for regen to compensate for skipping HoarFrost. I was wondering if anyone had any advice to give me on my build. Is Ice the best option for this or should i be looking at something else, Dark Armor had some nice potential in Mids but I wasnt sure how to get over the defense holes.

Tell me whatya think.

I'm a fan of the damage auras, I have an Ice armor slotted for regen right now thats fun to just let the enemies all around him fall down over time. it's my relax and make a sandwich solo build. I was wanting to do something to amp up the speed of kill. I wanna make a toon who uses the damage aura as the main weapon.

I was wondering which would be better, Fire aura for flat damage, or Dark for a less resisted damage type? Or would yet another be better?

Would 6 PBAoE toggle damage procs be better than a damage aura slotted for damage and accuracy?

Where can I find a comprehensive list of the Day Job badges and such? I thought I'd seen a guide sometime in the past when day jobs were new but i cant find it now.

I might not be looking at the right place but im about to hit 41 for the first time with my hero and I was looking at the lvl 41 powersets. Do i have to do a quest to unlock them like on redside, or do they just become available? i couldn't find anything about quests.

I'm an altaholic, I run on average about 8 toons at once on the same server, (Currently Freedom) and I rarely get them above 35ish before I decide to play something else.
I deal with my money issues by making my own base, getting all the toons into it and pooling all their dropped enhancements and salvage, if one of them gets a drop such as a respec it gets sold and that toon becomes a bank, if I need an invention i have the rich toon craft it and drop it into the enhancement table for the one that needs it, I've been able to handle some crazy expensive items because all my toons fund the one that needs it at the time. It's not hard, you just have to take 5 minutes to drop stuff into storage. I'm not trying to rip on the OP, but really, we all have money problems, I'm trying to buy 4 numina sets, I feel your pain, but such is imaginary life.
