  3. had great fun! thanks all. must do again
  4. I have a mindcontrol/kin and an Ice/cold fender.

    Although I can't offer the best advice on this forum, here's my humble opinion:

    -Damage issue: I have problems doing much solo damage with either MC or /cold, so you may want to consider slotting a few key powers like mesmerize and dominate with dmg procs

    -Endurance: ice/cold powers eat a lot of blue, plus with the weak dmg done by your main (MC), you'll have to do a lot of power spamming to solo, which also eats blue. Might want to slot a few end redux throughout

    -Stealth: Arctic Fog is a great stealth power. That plus super speed means you don't need to dip into the stealth pool at all. That is, if you like to be stealthy

    -Teaming: imho, mindcon + cold makes for a great team player. You have good crowd control with the MC and awesome debuffs/slows with cold. As for soloing, you'll probably have to tinker around with different power pools to up the dmg. Maybe take the fire epic.

  7. wow! thanks, all very helpful.

    I've been playing around with the sets and I've got it to 35.8% smashing/lethal defense.

    I like the idea of putting the thunderstrike into block of ice for the dmg.

    Not quite sure how you reached 40% ketch, but I'll keep working with it.

    thanks all again for the help! Ice troller is quite fun, and I'm glad I'll have a decent build when I start IOing her out.
  8. ah, good advice. None of this has actually happened, currently slotted with gen IOs throughout. Just planning things.

    I would appreciate any suggestions. I'm still rather new to the game so please be forgiving of silly errors.

    One thing that bothers me about this build is the lack of recharge. I tried to build up defense as much as I could, but I ended up having to give up recharge for it. Should I have slotted for recharge more?

    this!


    My main is an emp/archer and the redraw times are frustratingly long. It took a while for me to get so I wasn't corpseblasting all the time.

    in my experience, this is what I've found to be true. LoTG+7.5s have been going for 100+mil for a while now. I tried doing the random roll thing for 400 merits, but found my results to come up to 60mil at absolute best. Plus the added annoyance of having to craft, list, n wait. I went back to buy the one recipe n get big chunk o money.
  13. what about a rad/cold defender instead? would that do better than a troller?

    I usually stock up on low lvl gen end redux IOs in my SG base. Then i slot at least one in every power until I hit stamina.

    Rubbish.
    what are u talking about? i welcome all newbies to our server. I even hand out millions and millions in AP to lowbies (true story). the best is when i invite them to speed lgtf. the masses, they loves meh

    n btw, ur nonsense should do some factchecking.
