My favorite team number is 4. Considering the afk calls, gathering time etc, with a 8 player team u do not move swiftly.

A well balanced team of 4 at least 2 with high dmg ability is the fastest way to climb the levels FAST.

I was kind of hoping that this thread was going to be a comprehensive guide on how to walk in CoH/V.

Ahahahaa Same here...

Lots of work.
Tnx a lot for taking this so seriously and sharing with us?

Amazing work!!! Almost an academic style, deep but short explanations, objective analysi. Tnx a lot for the work...

Tnx for the nice guide...

I have played an AR/Elc blaster to L50 and i keep playing with her a lot. AR is fun BUT, i do not recomend electricity manupilation as the secondary power. They do not match good, for a better sinergy go for energy or ice.

For the powers i do not agree all. Beanbag is not necessary at all if u are a team player. so i recomend not geting it at all.

For munitions, i also disagree... it is nice for single atrget blasters (sleep grenade etc) and for dmg we have enough of that. Force is the best according to my observations. Repel them to a corner, blast'em with your aoes. Use force of nature to atack AVs and monsters or entering a crowd.

Tnx for the info....

So i am gettin ready to chose my first epic power. But opinion based what is best for an AR/Elec blaster? The munitions mastery looks great and the LRM really sounds exciting. But as a blaster i may need to worry more about defense. I have NO punch powers other than brawl ( i used to rely on them too much, therefore died ALOT) anyways help me out. Tell me what is good and bad about these powers before i get to lvl 41. I am halfway to it.
thanks

I have a L50 AR/elect. blaster and i have tried all but ice. Overall Force seems to be the GREATEST for me, for these reasons:

* I have sloted repulsion field 5 slots (4 end reduction+1 KB) and it made me almost indestructible. I fly fake nemesises up to 3rd level building tops, if I can find a corner of walls i sweep mobs to the corner and keep them bouncing in the corner and flame/full auto all there, none can even escape out. This is a way TOO strong power.

* Force of nature is GREAT just before atacking an AV. I do not get 1 shot killed anymore. When it fades fades away i just use 2-3 blue insps and continue blasting the AV and it is usualy too busy/debuffed/well taunted etc. to kill me

* Temp invul -if sloted with 1/2 end reduct. enhancements work great.

The cons: a bit too endurance dependent power pool. No hold powers but KB is a great control anyway.

Munitions has only the last power: LRM as a great atacking power but hey, we have our rifle and plenty dmg gealing atacks already. YoU need to get 2 more "not so good" powers to get LRM. As an aoe blaster, sleep grenade is NOT a wise choise. all wake up as u blast your cone, and has a long recharge to make them sleep again.

I like force, and recomend it to all rifle blasters...

I cant agree more on "Golden One" Pls read his post two times. Stand alone enough not to do.

This will spoil the FUN of all, not touching the PLers much.

I can see that lots of work has been done on the test server. Lots of calculations and valuable info here. Tnx a lot for the affords.

Some think that gravity do not need any improvements, some think it does. What i know is it is the least seen control type at high levels. Lots of players start one and give it up.

These changes were necessary. tnx for the work

This post explains me the humi raid MADNES.

This is somehow nice to give L50s smth to deal with.

I was just imagining an energy blaster 6 slot of these sloted to Nova at future PvP. Weird huh? Or a tanker caped resists and def.. almost god.

Tnx for the helpful posts...

Anyone updating the hero planner or is anyone working on a new program that includes the ancilliary power pools and epic ATs?

[/ QUOTE ]

1 - I am looking for that too.

2- all ATs pick same pools (blasters dont they pick diffrent ones) like psionic for defs and conts body for scrapers. I think they are unbalanced.

3- Great guide nice work. Tnx a lot.

DONT be too brave! Ok you are a hero, i know. But you'll be needed on the back too.
