Great guide, I have been using this as a reference for my character (which is now 38).

Which parts exactly?
The poor slotting, or the inaccuracies about sets?
How about the statement that repel is a good power for PvP?
The non-FAQ FAQ?
The complete lack of analysis of Pool powers outside of labeling powers "Useful" or "Not useful"?
The reader-unfriendly wall of text builds that have few descriptors?
The 1-40 build that doesn't have any major vertical movement powers until level 28?
Optimized IO sets that don't take good advantage of IOs like Numina's +recovery/regen, Miracle +recovery, or AegisPsy/Mez resist, favoring poor placements and bad substitutes, while simultaneously recommending purple IOs?
IO slottings that flagrantly ignore the needs of powers like transfusion, with bonuses that are so all over the place that they provide no substantial bonuses as to make a meaningful difference in output?
Let's not forget that the problem compounding the guide is the poster him/herself. The poster admits to committing to no analysis. This is made painfully obvious why later, in that he/she provides a spurious argument when attempting to disprove a valid criticism, throwing in a personal attack on the critic for good measure.
There's a better guide out there, and it's been bumped to the top of the guides forum recently. It shouldn't be hard to find.

I agree. There's too much wrong with this guide. Silly HO recommendations (Enzymes in Siphon Speed???), bad CJ slotting (see posts above), slotting Char and Cinders equally for Accuracy (Char needs less, Cinders more), and no explanation on IO set slotting.
Here's the other one.
Striking the Match, A Fire/Kin's guide
Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.
I've moved on to Diablo 3, TopDoc-1304
very nice
All the powers are useful
I've rolled my first 'troller that finally feels right to me...and I think (imo) the 2 guides are very helpful in there own ways I'm lvl 17 right now and kinda getting the hang of "containment" (I know I have a long way to go) 
cheers and rawr to all you firekins!!!

Funny how everyone assumes that a Fire/Kin is a farmer & powerleveler these days. Great guide, I have been using this as a reference for my character (which is now 38).
