  1. Oh man CoH/CoV so need seperate sections or somthing
    on the boards.
  2. Frost Great guide thank you very much. I now have fallen in love with my Ice/Empathy controler. I ran some decent size teams on Sat night 5-7 man/woman. Did a bunch of hunting and doors and wow I can sure kick some @$$. My Bread and butter is Frost bite and Artic Air this is one amazing double soft control. with this I rarely had to do any healling. which was good since my end is at a premium right now. I love Frost bits AOE effect combinded with AA that way they can not run away. AA is also great for controling the amount of mobs we had to face. Man I am only lvl 7 and I can not belive how well this build preforms. LvL 20 will be a great thing with Stamina. I think that Prof. Icen Burg could truly be my fav Controler I have built. So if your looking for some control with some Heally love then look up the Prof. on Justice. If I am on I do love to team

    Great Guide Frost

    There are two type of tanks I like to run with. Damage Takers and the Scapper/Tanker. Scanker I like to call them are Scaps with Melee attacks and Inv as a second. Tough enought to take a few hits be for needed to much healling but have the blow per blow to deal enough damage to hold them off. But they offten forget to complete their Scanker by not taking Provoke powers after 6th. Taunt is a must for all tankers to sever there Deffender well.

    With the changes in Issue 5, I'd argue that a tanker having their aura-provoke power is more important than having taunt -- both even better. Taunt in I5 only pulls a maximum of 5 opponents, while the aura power means that the opponents near the tanker are automatically turn their attention to attack the tanker.

    Fire Tanker - Blazing Aura
    Ice Tanker - Chilling Embrace
    Stone Tanker - Mud Pots
    Invulnerability Tanker - Invincibility ** last to get access to starting at lvl 18

    New players often don't know about this effect, so if you happen to notice that the person has one of these powers and isn't running it, and is having a hard time keeping aggro, you can politely ask if they'd use that power. (And you can find out all about each team member by right clicking on their name in the team window and checking their info -- very good to do when in a pickup group.)

    That's probably more info than most people need but something to keep in mind.

    I think you are missing the fact that Taunt is absolutly one of the best tools on a team. I have saved many a squishy with Taunt. If you use Taunt as like a team heal Eg. Defender/blaster health bar turns orange target player and taunt. and walla you argo 5 of the baddies that are attacking said player saving there butt so they can carry on doing there job to help the team

    Taunt can still agro more than 5 mobs, only 5 at a time simply put some recharge reductions in taunt then taunt 5 change team mate taunt 5 more and so on. I spam taunt on my team mates targets to keep there health bars green. We can still control agro it just mean you must use the tools that are provided to us.

    If your a tank take Taunt protect your team and love it
    but that is just my Opinion

    *edit so it was not so much of a postjack*
