Need build fire/kin solo farmer

Im not sure what mastery i want yet, depends what is most useful for farming.

I am not looking for a build with any purple sets, i simple cant afford them and i earn my influence so the income is not heavy.

My budget 400-600m


I prefer builds that has been tested ingame, i dont want to find out i took the wrong build after io's are slotted.


help is appreciated much.

(Not a snarky response)

You should be able to solo farm with SOs on a fire/kin. Fire or psi seem to be favorite APPs.

thats good news, however i have no clue what power sets to take and where to place the slots. I havent played anything similar.

What level is it now?

37

i have a free respec.

Have you played your toon at all? Level 37 and you have no clue?

i have played it in missions but i havent farmed with it.

i asked for help i didnt ask for someome to question me.

please go troll somewhere else.

I don't think they were really trolling. At 37 you should already have a pretty good handle on slotting and what powers are most helpful. As far as solo farming all you'll really need to do is make sure you get your aoe damage APP power and slot it for acc and damage with some rech and end red thrown in with set IOs (if you choose). But the truth is to solo farm a fire/kin you should be able to use pretty much any non gimped build.

Well, for farming the two most important powers are Bonfire and Repel. You want to take both of those as early as possible, and 6 slot them. Toggle on Repel the moment you enter your farm map and never turn it off. When you approach each spawn, drop Bonfire wait a second or two, then throw out your Fire Cages. After that, just let your imps clean up the leftovers...

I farmed Ghost Widow that way.

Try 'thinking for yourself' and not being a 'lemming'. It is a good lesson for both CoH and also the outside world (scary place!)

People here are happy to help, but what you want is to be spoonfed information without contributing anything.

You're only telling half the story. None of this will matter if you don't have the presence pool to grab agro and the medicine pool to keep you alive after you do. You'll also need the powers from these pools to access the set bonuses you'll need for an effective farming build.

Dang! That completely skipped my mind! How could I forget about those key powers?? I like to take both the taunt AND fear powers from Presence myself.

The Fire/Kin solo build I'm using. Soft-capped Smashing/lethal. Cost about 140m to slot out before the LotG sets, I haven't grabbed those but am putting in bids. Between Flashfires and Fissures, a lot of stuff is gonna be stunned, Fire Cages immobilizes for a sort of pseudohold.

If you're fighting minions and lieutenants, nothing will touch you. Fighting bosses, well. They probably still won't touch you. Hotfeet + Fissures + Fire Cages does most of the damage (I'm tossing about 220 damage with containment on Fissures, for example, which recharges in this build every 6.8 seconds). Things die really fast. Really, really fast. Absolutely slaughters Cimerorans, I can tank in the ITF except against the Nictus (where I can pop a couple of purples and tank them anyway).

Will give you all the money you ever need for the investment of 140m up front and an eventual ~180-200m if you really want that extra few 7.5% global recharge.

Bad Folonius No cookie!

depends what you want to farm: BM/warrior clan, demon, or freakshow

For the BM/warrior clan farm ur going to want either fire or earth as epic powers

You want fire for the damage resistance, you'll get hit the same amount but w/ less damage.

You want Earth for the defense, you'll get hit less, but w/ almost the full amount of damage.

If ur doing a freak farm... I'll be honest, i've done things LIKE the freak farm in ae, but not the ACTUAL freak farm, but i would still stick w/ fire or earth, unless u want some resistance to stuns, than u want mental

As far as the demon farm... I'm not going to even try to give u advice on it, haven't even been a doorsitter on it
