    I picked up CoH shortly after launch and have been playing since. My first Blaster was actually an Ice/Energy well before if became popular for the short lived PvP. This character was actually made shortly after as an alt on another server. I had no idea what worked and what didnt so I just switched the character I already enjoyed. Oddly enough today it has became my man toon.

    Either way I play what I enjoy to play. Solo the KB is actually a lot of fun. I've learned all the tricks of controlling my KB in teams to minimize frustration. My original post was actually more about being declined for the dmg difference. Something that Im aware differs if not just in the simple comparison to Fire's secondary of DoT. I have a hard time believeing that it differs to the extreme that waiting for your "right" player to come along is worth it.

    All around I moved on lol. This was between running Incarnate trials and I felt like getting some dialouge on it. I've built teams and TFs all my own and have actually dealt with "bad" energy players where Ive had to ask them to calm down. Simple put I was waiting for GearScore to drop of the sky and hit me on the head

    I was rejected by two TFs today simply due to that fact that my primary is energy. I believe one leader was only wanting Fire or Ice maybe psy as well. I'm unsure if I'm naive of this situation but besides the added knockback with energy I've never had an issue with this in the past. Is there some ungodly difference that makes waiting 30 mins and praying for your idea of the optimal Blaster worth it. I'm clear that certain sets perform higher on the dmg scale but I't was my knowledge that they were all still high dmg dealing sets.

    Slight rant. Maybe disscussion?
  3. Just wanted to note a bug that I've noticed for some time. On the female character if you select sleves for the gloves option, I believe on the left hand of the character, the color stops right before the edge of the sleve and the flesh color starts. It's only a minor detail but is noticable to me because usually the skin color and color of clothing is much different.
  4. I did my first Mayhem Mission with my Lvl 37 Dom tonight. It was lots of fun being able to destroy everything. Combustion was great standing the middle of piles of boxes....*boom* :P

    Anyways I didnt have much trouble accept with the bosses
    when I didnt have Domination going, though i actaully never had a problem accept once when it was totally my fault and I let a hold let up >.<

    The boss that i got at the end was a Fire/Fire tank from what i could tell...didn't have time to look since he was beating on me....He got really close to doing me in but I was able to get him held and have my way with him.

    I cleared a pretty good area out around the bank but didnt find any side missions so cant comment on those :/
