  1. So when will most of you put slots into, I guess it will not be important until a little later, but what level would you try to plan on having (however many you put) slots into it?
  2. I think that I am going to go with WP, I have this on two other toons and really like it. Still leaning towards Fire/, but not sure. Logging on now to play around with creating a character, and his look may change what he is.......

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions and advice, CoX forums are still the best in gaming....

    Ok, serious answer. Shield is a real killer. I have a Fire/Shield Scrapper that's pretty epic. /Elec could be fun, too. Infinite endurance and a damage aura. /Fire is the thematic pairing, and it is a good one. Extreme damage, but a little on the squishy side.
    well fire I won't go with because I do not want to be to squishy, I like the idea of /elec having lots of END....and I have heard shield is really durable...I am gonna go read about both of those secondaries....Is fire the most damage as a primary?
  4. I have only played a SS/WP Brute(LVL 40 James Kane), which I love and is all kinds of fun, but I am thinking about a Fire/ something for the AoE fun. I am rolling this toon to run through Pretoria before going blue side. I honestly don't have any theme in mind, other than I want him to go Blue afterward, unless he just feels evil

    So my two questions are;
    1) what goes well with Fire/
    2)or what other toons are just fun

    I mainly solo, won't really team much until I get out of Pretoria, want to enjoy the story line over there, and learn all about that zone, VERY excited to check it out.....
  5. That is what it seems like, Oh well, was funny to see all the little enemies around them die while the big guys went at it, I think I am gonna jump in and say I took them both on(but I will leave out the part where I last 10 seconds)
  6. I just lured Jack over too the big Eochai and am watching them fight, but not much progress going on the health bars. Will they just fight forever, or will one actually win. Probably just fight for a while then lose interest like I will soon.

    Just curious, thanks for you time....

    Ice Control

    Ice/Storm is GREAT, my favorite toon and the one I always go back to, built for solo, he is a little taste of frozen chaos.

    Storm is great for damage, especially with a good recharge build you can throw down a couple storms(snow and lightning) and a tornado or two, it is almost as effective as it is awesome looking. My only problem with the build has been end issues, because Storm seems to suck the blue like crazy.

    I have a couple lowbie Ice trollers Ice/Kin and Ice/Cold, both are ok, but not as easy to solo, but Kin will roll along once I get him a little higher.
  8. I had to re-download firefox today and am trying to find all my old add-ons so I decided to ask you all if there are any add-ons that help with the CoX forums or forums in general?

    And while I am at it any other suggestions of good add-ons I need or should get?

    Thanks for the help as always....
  9. doing a little better with this build, starting to add some enhancements and I will probably have to respec soon, since I am sure some of my power choices are bad, I will post my build later to get some advice, only solo'd so far, gonna try to team up some today, hopefully I do ok.

    I love that, I can not count how much time I have lost searching for one bad guy hiding in the building a a small glowie hidden just right!!! great feature
  11. I spent a couple hours with him today and can definitely tell he can do damage, just against with the missions set on +0x1 and he seemed to fair pretty well despite no enhancements slotted yet, going to transfer him some money tonight and give him a respec to try to choose powers a little better. Not sure about him as a controller, but his damage is nice,

    edit: Love the Supernatural quote, series is getting great
  12. I have a now level 38 Fire/Fiery Assault Dom that I have not really played since he was level 10 or so, and I have no idea to really play him, I am reading this guide
    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=114317
    it is a little old but helps me a little, I have a lot of controller experience Blue side, but no real dom experience.

    As far as the build is concerned I am not sure if I should be focusing more on control or on the attacks in Fiery Assault, guess I am not sure if a Dom is more Blaster or Controller or just a support toon.

    Just looking for advice in general on this type of Dom, and all Doms in general because I have a level 38 Ice/Cold Dom that I have yet to play as well
    Just extra info, I generally solo or dual Box(reason why I have to level 38 toons I never played with the whole level Pact thing)
  13. I love this thread, half of these songs are being transferred to my ipod now for the gym this week!!!!

    I like this song alot for scrapping

    I can tell the scrapper crowd is more of a heavy metal/rock/alternative crowd, but I like a couple rap songs that go well...

    completely true, my main was one of my first ever toons, my first 50 and my first billion influence maker, he has been respeced probably 20 times, and so many different play styles, I have some things most people wouldn't on their builds because it is all about preference.

    And thunder Storm is awesome, lock em all down, toss up a storm and tornado and its awesome to watch. Especially a while back when we had 2 Ice Trollers with on a team we had Storms and tornados all over the place, felt like I was in Kansas again!!!!

    =(
    Went back and added it, spent a little but still have over a Billion, bout to go spend a lot right now though!!!!!
  17. I know it's not quite the accomplishment it used to be, but I was excited. I will post a pic if I can remember my photobucket password.

    I was stuck between 500-600 mil for weeks, making and spending, but in the course of 2 weeks I had 5 purples drop, 2 ragnoroks, a apocolypse, and a armagedon and some other one I can't think of(not even sure I wrote the right ones down here )

    So anyways I now have 1.4billion with 300 million at WWs waiting to be sold. Though I am about to spend alot of it

    Sorry for the novel I was just very excited!!!!

    My assumption is a higher end PC, and that you have to have the game installed twice, like with setting up training server access.
    The other two gave good answers all I will add is that it is useful to run the game in windowed mode to switch back and forth easier, I either run them side by side so I can see both or one behind the other. My computer is getting a little old, but I can still run two instances of CoH with little issues, so you should be fine

I can run a map within 17-23 mins. So for the person who said "Im tired of seeing crapy builds blah blah blah" its defiently not crappy ok. I can pwn in farming and Pvp at the sametime and not get bored. Flashfire is for newb non experienced players that havnt played a fire/kin before. But ill let you keep talking. I have plent of people on freedom that tell me im a crazy farm. Also I charge 10mill and get a team of 4 easly. Well with that said, thanks and have a nice day. Smoke the tweed one in awhile, it will calm your nerves! Bahahaha
    A lot of things that I could pick in there to go after but I will just remind you that you came here asking for build advice and probably didn't look at any of the other 100 posts for Fire/Kin(I have one Bookmarked that I have been following, and then when I have trouble at least I was following the right road map), that is why the main posters here get tired of rate my fire/Kin, help with my Fire/Kin posts that haven't followed any type of plan which has been laid out over and over and over and over and ooooovvvvveeeeerrrrr I mean reeheheheaaaallllllyyy (going for a Doctor Cox rant there(Scrubs reference))
  23. very cool, just spent 30 minutes watching 30 diferent versions!!
