Breaks the rule of fives on 6.25% global rech. changed Blaze's IOs to Thunderstrike, or if I feel it's too expensive, it's not like I'm really getting anything useful from it, I might Frankenslot.

I noticed that like a day after I did the sig and I've been surprized no one noticed the two. -
This toon is already at level 30, so those powers are fixed. I can paste an as-built if someone helping me would need that. But here goes.
This is a toon I decided to try to softcap with some restraint on budget.
Tell me where I'm doing it wrong if I am, please. ty.

Quote:In theory, locking a toon betters the world by putting the drops in heavy demand in to the hands of those who need them while also making a nice profit. I've locked several toon.Originally Posted by Kioshi
Why would you lock a toon (I'm genuinely curious)? Wouldn't it be better to level the toon to, say, 32 so you can slot things like Stamina and some endred in toggles and then lock it and exemplar via ourobouros if you wanna go to dark astoria or something? In TFs you'll be auto exemplared anyway.
However, I think the reason I will lock a toon again, and I will, is becasue I love certain parts of the game that pass too fast. I love the 20s. I locked and totally IOed a 25. You'd be amazed what IOing at 25 can do compared to the others. It's the bonuses. Rech ftw.
Alledgedly, 33 is the level to lock at. Something to do with PvP or something. I don't pay attention that much. But locking is something you can learn more about in the Marketing forum.
I didn't make any mad cash, or even anything resembling it, by locking. But it was fun. -
I think what the OP was saying, and saying well and eloquently, OK, is summed up in fewer words and posts in this thread:
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=205253 -
No builds, just advice.
Second build or compromise if you want exemplared excellence. I got exemplared down to 15 on Posi and lost some of my prime stuff. Shiver is part of my attack pattern.
That said, I'm really glad I picked Stamina at 20 and not the other power that popped up in the primary. Doing Synapse soon, so I need to have my good stuff below 25. I haven't looked to see what the damage is, but on Posi I had no kb protection.
I'm going to second build that, and probably other toons of mine. They will have a natural level version and the exemplar friendly version. Or, the second build can be anything. A ghost? Service hero?
You're on the right track thinking about getting exxed with your respec. I know that when I'm just quickly goofing in Mids, I'll just throw stuff in whatever order. I did respec one toon like that, but I deleted her later...might have liked her more if I had respecced correctly. -
Go to the Social Security Administraiton's top baby names of the previous year [or whichever, you can pick] and pick all the girl names.
Isabella, Emily, Emma, Madison, Ava [I have never heard this name], Olivia, Sophia, Abigail.
I mean, that's freaky. -

Quote:Those are the expensive ones. No need to buy them. If you're frankenslotting, there is no difference between a level 35 Cleaving Blow Acc/Dam and a level 35 Obliteration Acc/Dam. Except maybe 20 or so million as that Cleaving Blow is not in demand from the IO set builders.Originally Posted by GreenGiant
I tried to check how much it would cost me to frankenslot to get as good % and some IO were more expensive than what it costs me to fillup my whole lvl 32.
I do nothing until I can get DOs, then at 22 I switch to SOs and might put some uniques or procs in, once in the 30s it's "close enough" time and I start making sets. -
I'll bring Saltier again. Fire/ice blaster.
-
Had lots of fun even though I burn out the SOs in stamina in the first mission. Really made life interesting.
Good, powerful team. -
Quote:Yep. Cause they aren't tanks.Originally Posted by Dechs Kaison
Scrappers don't get stone...
-
Scranker
1. A scrapper who can't hold aggro pretending he's a tank.
2. A tanker who ignores his responsibility and scrapperlocks everything.
That said, katana/wp is cheap and very very powerful.
As for building a scrapper to be like a tank, I'd suggest stone/stone. -
Mine seems powerful to me. I could pull up mids and look at the numbers, or you could.
-
Seeing what we've got lined up. I'd like to bring a level 28 Fire/Ice Blaster, Saltier. I froze her at 25 for a while and IOed her out for that level, so she's pretty tight. Just get a tank that can handle two buckets of aggro as Saltier can dish the pain.
See you at 9 Central. -
Sub-40: ill/rad, like Smurphy said.
Past-38: ill/kin.
I have an ill/storm which fits this bill. I also have a fire/kin ghost, Rabbit Ghost on Freedom, and am working on a ghost scrapper, a MA/electric, named drooggeist.
I've second builded many utili-toons into something that can do more damage/lockdown. It's cool for a while, but I aint your mommy. -
We can trade Merits?
What about Vanguard Merits? -
Quote:What?Originally Posted by GavinRuneblade
True, this advice isn't so helpful for your intent. The only dirt cheap defense set bonus I know of is in rectified reticle. Where you can get 1% S/L for 2-slotting. But the near total loss of recharge in a power like build up is painful.
RR +precep
RR tohit/rech
Generi-rech IO is pretty good.
Put in another Generi-rech and you're cookin' especially in higher levels. Also, 1.88% rounds to 2.
And you're right, you can't, at all, build for positional cheap...oh, except Werner's demon magic up there. Bad craziness. -
Every crazy, wacky "Here's a new way" post has always blown.
-
Had a good time. I was Coconut Infinity.
-
EDITED: I'm ducking out as an alternate. Have fun guys.
-
Our team, led by BADGE. [with the period] did radio mishs in PI. Granted, this is with a bunch of teens and low twenties. Leadership was pushed on me, Coconut Infinity, first, and Midnighters suggested. Feh, I'll cure the lost in the RWZ, buddy.
I only did 2 hrs, but I know they were going strong after as I saw the chatter on the TankHQ channel when I was on another toon.
Very good. Good turnout. Even had one disillusioned controller standing on the wall even after it was explained to him. -
I make about 3b per run doing Battle Man with this build.
